Last Listing description (September 2024)

Nestled in a stunning eucalyptus forest, this architecturally designed home offers the perfect balance of privacy and convenience. Just 7 minutes from Huonville and a short 30-minute drive to Hobart, this north-facing sanctuary benefits from uninterrupted sunlight all day long. Elevated with breathtaking views of Sleeping Beauty Mountain from both the deck and the top of the property, this home is also carefully positioned into the hillside, ensuring protection from the wind while enjoying the tranquillity of nature.

Designed by the renowned team at Homeful by Designful and featured in Sanctuary Magazine (Issue 66), this cleverly designed small home maximises every inch of space with both elegance and efficiency. Its passive solar design ensures that the house remains cool in summer and warm in winter, perfectly attuned to the Tasmanian climate. Crafted for this particular site, the home sits on stilts, seamlessly integrated into the surrounding trees, offering stunning views of the eucalyptus forest while avoiding being overshadowed. Expansive windows and doors have been strategically placed to enhance natural light and optimise cross breezes throughout the home.

The contemporary kitchen and living area reflect the surrounding landscape with a palette of eucalyptus green, grey, and light brown. The pitched roof creates an open, airy feel, while hardwood timber flooring and brand-new appliances ensure both beauty and practicality. Soft-close cupboards, floating bookshelves, and a wood heater at the centre of the room offer both comfort and modern style.

The bathroom is a haven of luxury, featuring a handmade Tasmanian Oak vanity by a local joiner and a custom sink crafted by ceramicist Lindsey Wherrett. The bath has been designed for easy cleaning, and whether you're in the shower or the bath, you'll enjoy serene views of the forest. A boutique selection of tiles adds an extra touch of sophistication. Each of the three bedrooms is thoughtfully designed with the same size built-in wardrobes, openable windows with fly screens, and private views of the eucalyptus forest. The bedrooms are carpeted with synthetic wool, which mimics the look of real wool while being easier to clean. The middle bedroom, designed as a kids' room, features a charming hand-painted mountain scape mural.

A 3m built-in desk along the hallway offers the perfect work-from-home setup, complete with multiple power points and proximity to the modem for optimal internet access. The European-style laundry is compact but functional, with space for a wall-mounted dryer if needed. The hallway includes large storage cupboards with a power point for a stick vacuum or other appliances. The home's heating and cooling system centres around the wood heater in the living room, which is positioned to distribute heat down the hallway. Partial and full block-out blinds in every room ensure a comfortable temperature year-round, keeping warmth in during winter and the heat out in summer.

The home's exterior is a modern blend of silver top ash timber and sustainable WeatherTex cladding. A 4m x 5m entertaining deck, accessible via sliding doors from the kitchen and living space, is equipped with lighting and power points, making it ideal for hosting outdoor gatherings. Additional outdoor features include two 13,000L water tanks, a static water fire tank, a limestone driveway for easy access, and parking for up to three vehicles.

At the end of a private road, this 8-acre property is a nature lover's dream, with a nature protection covenant over the bottom 4 acres, ensuring a safe haven for local wildlife, including the swift parrots, which can often be spotted from the house. The fenced property features wallaby-proof fencing along three boundaries, while basic landscaping continues as a passion project for the owners. The grassy areas are starting to regrow after the clearing for the build, and there's an endless supply of firewood on site, with a current pile of chopped wood included in the sale.

This remarkable property is a unique opportunity to own a piece of Tasmanian wilderness, combining cutting-edge design with a deep respect for the surrounding environment.
