Overview

440 Jones River Road presents a unique opportunity to own a masterfully designed architectural retreat nestled in a serene riverside setting. Constructed in 2014, this sanctuary spans approximately 198 square metres and is thoughtfully arranged across a distinctive three-pod layout, delivering a harmonious balance between open-plan entertaining and private living spaces.

The central living pavilion impresses with its soaring vaulted ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows, affording sweeping elevated views over the Derwent River. The area is designed for year-round comfort with passive solar heating, reverse-cycle air conditioning, and a wood heater. The bamboo flooring throughout offers both warmth and durability.

The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with premium appliances, including an Ariston built-in oven, induction cooktop, and a Miele dishwasher, all set against elegant bamboo work surfaces. This culinary space flows seamlessly to an extensive rear timber deck outfitted with an electric folding awning, ideal for alfresco entertaining while enjoying tranquil water vistas.

Privacy is ensured in the master retreat, which features commanding river views, a study nook within the walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious ensuite complete with a deep soaking bath, walk-in shower with bespoke glass screens, underfloor heating, and a separate toilet. The guest wing is equally well-appointed with two bedrooms and a stylish bathroom featuring underfloor heating, catering perfectly to family or short-stay guests.

The property benefits from direct river access via meandering pathways through native bushland leading to a shared jetty, making it a haven for fishing enthusiasts and water sport lovers who appreciate launching kayaks or relaxing by the water’s edge.

Set on a private 613-square-metre freehold parcel, the grounds are predominantly natural native gardens designed for low maintenance while encouraging local birdlife and fauna. Functional outdoor infrastructure includes a detached workshop, garden storage shed, and dual water supplies from a river pump and rainwater tanks.

This residence is part of an exclusive community blending freehold ownership with shared river amenities. It is designated for non-permanent holiday occupancy under current strata by-laws, making it an appealing proposition for buyers interested in a boutique short-stay investment or a tranquil riverside retreat away from urban hustle.
