The simple life

Looking for an affordable bolt hole on the East Coast? This well-kept 1-bedroom timber cabin on 792 sqm land parcel at Orford features ocean views and a lockup Colorbond workshop and could be for you. It would make a profitable holiday rental with storage space for a boat or caravan - while you either develop a long-term plan for the staged development of your dream home in years to come, or just keep it simple!
With all day sun from a NE aspect, and within walking distance of Orford shopping, newsagent, cafés and wonderful beach walks along West and East Shelly Beaches to Spring Beach and the rolling surf.
Generous timber decks front and rear provide level access and elevated vantage points to take in the views across sparkling Prosser Bay. A paved courtyard with fire pit behind the cabin is a peaceful retreat when the day's activities are done and yarns mix with cold drinks and tall stories of crayfish catches or amazing golf drives.
Shrubbery has been established for privacy and a small amenities block behind the cabin provides storage, laundry plus second shower and toilet for those occasions when family or friends stay over to enjoy some East Coast time out.
The cabin was constructed to be relocatable – the future may take the form of holiday rental income plus workshop storage rental to hold the property, or eventually, selling the cabin to construct a larger retirement or family holiday home on the land.
The Orford/Spring Beach precinct is popular with cyclists and well equipped with community support infrastructure including medical services, a pharmacy, library, very active golf, bowls and boating clubs – all this just one hour by car from the city of Hobart. And did I mention the fishing? What are you waiting for!
