74 Bull Oak Way

Grove TAS 7109

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.

As this is in a newer area, Google Maps directions are incorrect. Travelling on the Huon Highway, you will need to turn off on Turn Creek Road, then take a left up Grovenor Rise. At the top of Grovenor Rise, you take a right on Bull Oak Way and head straight to the top. From here you can travel down the driveway and you will find the home, sitting beautifully within the trees.
