There are properties that offer a beautiful home, and then there are properties that offer an entire way of life. Set across approximately 40 acres of rich, productive land and established Tasmanian landscape, this exceptional one-owner property combines an exceptionally considered residence with genuine rural capability, outstanding infrastructure and a natural environment rarely found so close to town.
The Home
• Designed with purpose - Built in 2012 by the current owners, every aspect of the home was carefully considered, from its orientation and outlook to the selection of high-end Tasmanian timbers that bring warmth, character and a sense of permanence
• Five bedrooms, three bathrooms with multiple living areas providing generous space for family living, entertaining and quiet retreat
• A guest wing offers genuine privacy and independence, complete with its own exceptional outlook - ideal for extended family, guests or those wanting separation from the main living spaces
• The master suite takes full advantage of its elevated position, with an extraordinary outlook across the property, expansive sea views and a front-row seat to the sunrise each morning
• The indoor heated 10-metre lap pool and spa create a private wellness space for year-round enjoyment, regardless of the Tasmanian weather outside
• Multiple heating options ensure the home is comfortable in every season, with the feature wood heater in the main living area is particularly appealing given the property's own timber resource - warmth without the ongoing cost of purchasing firewood
• 50 solar panels provide substantial energy generation, complementing the home's thoughtful approach to efficiency and self-sufficiency
• Central to the home is the Commercial grade kitchen - well-appointed with all the appliances you'd expect from a home of this calibre
The Land and Farming
• Approximately 40 acres (16.56 hectares) of pristine and productive land, combining rich red soil, established trees and areas of mature native landscape
• Two paddocks provide flexibility for grazing and rural pursuits, with the second paddock encompassing approximately 15 acres and being well fenced and water serviced
• Two water licences are included in the sale, providing a combined allocation of approximately 16.1 megalitres, supported by two substantial dams
• Extensive shedding and infrastructure provide practical accommodation for farm equipment, vehicles, machinery and recreational assets
• The land is alive with native wildlife, with platypus, protected frogs, echidnas, kookaburras and an abundance of birdlife all forming part of the property's natural environment
• Birds of prey including sea eagles and wedge-tailed eagles are known to nest among the established trees, adding another remarkable dimension to this private piece of Tasmania
• A genuine rural holding without the isolation, with productive land, water security and the infrastructure to pursue a range of farming and lifestyle interests
This is a property where the quality of the home is matched by the land it occupies. Approximately 40 acres of productive ground, significant water resources and an extraordinary natural environment sit alongside a beautifully crafted home designed specifically to make the most of its setting and remarkably, you don't need to trade convenience for the rural lifestyle. Penguin is just minutes away and Burnie is equally accessible, keeping schools, hospitals, shopping, employment and everyday amenities within easy reach.
Properties offering this combination of a high-end home, genuine acreage, water security, infrastructure and extraordinary natural surrounds are exceptionally rare. If you're looking for more than a house and more than just acreage - this is a property which combines both in the most impressive of ways.
