Nestled on the eastern boundary of the popular Central Highlands/West Coast tourist stop-over Derwent Bridge, 'Pearce's Hut' offers an opportunity to secure a slice of the Central Highlands in an area where real estate doesn't enter the open market very often.

Offering a 9.571ha (23.65 acres) parcel which traverses both sides of the Lyell Highway, the property has an established mix of mature subalpine eucalypt trees with bush understory vegetation on one half of the holding. Native vegetation includes mature Snow Peppermints, Yellow Gums, Tasmanian Waratah, and Mountain Pepper, offering an authentic highland environment.

Owned by the Pearce family, Lindsey Pearce was the last one to live in the huts up until the early 1990s. The 'Huts' present an example of Highlands settlers/trappers huts and would of been used by bushman for game management, early timber industries and/or passing travellers as a dry area to escape from the changing weather conditions.

Offered 'as is where is', the two-roomed weatherboard, iron-roofed structures are complete with open-fire places and evidences of 'long-drop' toilet. A number of mature oriental trees are established around the cleared area of where the 'huts' are positioned. The original 'Linda Track’ just before the Lyell Highway that runs parallel to the current highway, is in situ.

Serving as the gateway to the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, Derwent Bridge is a popular stop-over for locals and tourists to stop, re-fuel and explore the natural beauty of the area. Attractions include 'The Wall' (nearby), a 100-metre wood carving, Lake St Clair (Australia's deepest freshwater lake) & the finishing line of the iconic Overland track multi day trek, draw people to the area. Derwent Bridge is a little over two-hours drive from Launceston and/or Hobart or 1 hour and 15minutes from Queenstown or a little further to Strahan.

‘Pearce’s Hut’ offers exceptional potential for a private retreat, eco-tourism venture, or long-term lifestyle investment in one of Tasmania’s most scenic regions.
