Last Listing description (February 2025)

On beautiful Bruny Island is picturesque and quiet Simpsons Bay, and here, on a no-through road high among the gum trees, is this 9.79ha sanctuary or (21.721acres) offering an exceptionally private lifestyle, with incredible far-reaching views out to the Tasman Sea.

Hidden from the road, and via a private entrance, this property will make your everyday a peaceful tranquil experience. Nestled within natural forest, surrounded with birds and wildlife, a quality, sealed driveway elevates approx. 300metres to a proudly positioned renovated dream. As you approach the home your eyes are drawn to the deck and magical view beyond!

From this elevated position, a north facing, three-bedroom home is immersed and surrounded by an incredible panorama of sea, sky, and the close by Bay. These views can be enjoyed from multiple serene sites on the property and are engulfed from all the living/entertaining areas and master bedroom of the home as well as from a separate cabin/sleep-out.

This extensive panorama takes in the isthmus between North and South Bruny Island and features Simpsons Bay. Incredibly, the expanse of this vista extends beyond Cape Queen Elizabeth incorporating Adventure Bay and Fluted Cape, to the ocean beyond.

This is a home that welcomes every day with stunning sunrises, and this is a view you could never tire of! Constantly changing in colour and mood and showcasing the very best of Bruny Island in all its glory, it's a jaw dropper for all who are privileged to experience it!

The welcoming home has been lovingly renovated and recycled Tasmanian Oak flooring adds to the character of a generous open plan interior. Glass sliders lead to inside/outside living and an impressive quality wrap around timber deck. From here, you can breathe in the fresh island air and feel as if you're on top of the world. The undercover entertaining area is perfect for relaxing and soaking in the magic of this mesmerising panorama.

A considered combination of double glazing, full insulation and the ambience of an efficient wood-fire heater keeps the home cosy throughout the cooler seasons.

The master bedroom is stylish and well considered with a walk behind wardrobe and glass sliders to the deck. Positioned perfectly to wake to the glow of the rising sun.

The kitchen has ample cupboard storage and is equipped with quality appliances. A large island bench and workspace, including sink, ensures you're looking out at the view as you prepare meals. This doubles as a breakfast table and is wonderfully designed for entertaining. Australian Anthology pressed splashback tiles in 'pepper' feature with soft touch cabinetry and Tasmanian Oak benchtops.

The bathroom also features Anthology tiling and a recycled antique kitchen dresser, believed to be Huon Pine, adds an authentic unique touch!

Some additional property features include:

• Large workshop and potting shed with storage
• Utility shed and studio
• Separate laundry with spa bath and second toilet
• Underground power to the home
• 43,000 litres of rain-water storage
• New carport and boat storage
• Massive, enclosed vegetable garden yielding impressive produce
• Hot house, chook houses and wood storage barrels
• Enclosed back patio and large under house storage
• Multiple walking tracks, native bushland, and abundant wildlife

The remarkable garden deserves a special mention and is alive in colour and fragrance, just some of the array of produce includes 3 cherries, mulberry, nectarine, apricots, several lemons, boysenberry, feijoas, several apple and pear varieties, walnut tree, raspberry canes, rosemary buses and all sorts of greens!

Without doubt, from this central island position, you can easily create your own adventures and share in the natural wonders of Bruny Island. All the local services are just minutes away, with both the Alonnah township and the popular seaside village of Adventure Bay close by. Adding to this is easy access to sheltered waterways, and a 'yachtie's' paradise' awaits with the boat ramp at the end of the road!

An efficient ten-minute ferry service departs the island every twenty minutes and beautiful Hobart city is an easy and realistic commute.

Exceptional lifestyle appeal combined with a unique opportunity for a productive island oasis and with a view that needs to be seen to be believed. Nestled amongst tranquil surroundings yet less than an hour and a half from the vibrant city of Hobart, this property is amazing!
