Set proudly on a rare north-facing double allotment on one of Tasmania's most desirable addresses, this exceptional residence on King Street, Bellerive Bluff, is a true masterpiece of architecture, lifestyle and family focused design. Winner of the 2016 Master Builders Association Award for Excellence, this home is a refined blend of timeless materials, thoughtful layout, and contemporary function, a sanctuary that embraces natural light, expansive space and effortless connection to the outdoors.
From the moment you arrive, the home's understated elegance and enduring style are evident. The raw Macrocarpa Pine timber cladding, dried and applied on site has been left untreated to silver beautifully with age, completely maintenance free. Paired with etched Besser block, the home's robust material palette speaks to permanence, strength and quiet sophistication.
The property was designed with a deep understanding of its site and surroundings. Oriented across the full width of the allotment, the home captures maximum sun to both living and sleeping zones, offering natural warmth throughout the year and water views from key rooms. Passive solar principles have been applied throughout, supported by extensive glazing, concrete heat banks, and clever ventilation design.
Stepping inside, the entry welcomes you with a low, intimate ceiling and practical space for shoes, coats and bags, immediately offering a sense of calm and invitation. A few steps in, and you are greeted by an impressive light-filled gallery with room for art, family photos and personal touches. Skylights above draw natural light through the space, two of which open to promote airflow on warmer days.
The upper level is the heart of the home, open, sun-drenched, and expansive. It features the main kitchen, dining, and living areas, all thoughtfully designed to bring people together. Blackbutt veneer cabinetry, stainless steel benchtops, and consistent finishes throughout create a sense of harmony and timeless appeal. A seamless transition leads to an all-weather outdoor pavilion, complete with a commercial-grade BBQ, stainless steel benches, wood heater, motorised screen, and built-in seating, making it a true year-round extension of the home.
The master suite is cleverly placed on this upper level for privacy and uninterrupted views. Warm timber tones, a Tasmanian Oak daybed, and a bespoke desk create a retreat within a retreat. Burnished concrete floors flow through the living space and master bedroom, acting as a heat bank to capture the low winter sun, supported by solar-powered hydronic heating throughout the home.
The lower level features three generously sized bedrooms, ideal for children or guests, each complete with built-in robes and study desks. Sliding doors allow this entire wing to be closed off, providing privacy, noise reduction, and flexibility as the family's needs evolve. Every bedroom enjoys garden views, with natural shading from smoke bush foliage in summer and abundant sunlight during winter.
The bathrooms are beautifully appointed with blackbutt veneer cabinetry, floor to ceiling tiles and skylights that flood the spaces with natural light. The guest bathroom, although centrally located, has the feel of a private ensuite. The oversized laundry is exceptionally well-planned, with a four metre bench, double trough, overhead drying line, and full height cupboards for linen and pool towels. Positioned for easy access from the backyard, it is the perfect solution for busy families or anyone coming in from the pool.
On the lower level, the rumpus room provides a fun, separate area for movie nights, gaming or hanging out with friends. The gym overlooks the pool and spa area and flows seamlessly to a covered zone with an outdoor shower. A few steps down, you will find lush green lawn that feels soft underfoot and provides the perfect space for play or quiet outdoor moments.
The pool zone is a standout feature of the property. An 8 x 4 metre heated swimming pool that is salt chlorinated with automatic dosing, designed for both relaxation and play, is complemented by a separate 2 x 2 metre tiled spa with its own temperature control. The pool is heated by a solar hot water system, when the hot water tank reaches its threshold, the overflow fills the pool, so not a drop of energy is wasted. The surrounding deck and paved areas offer plenty of space for lounging, gathering, and soaking up the sun.
Further down the property, a firepit zone adds another layer of functionality and charm. Surrounded by raised veggie gardens, grapevines and passionfruit, it creates a private, secluded pocket that feels a world away from city life.
Comfort and efficiency were top priorities in the design and construction of this home. The hydronic heating system is powered by a 1000-litre stainless steel storage tank, filled via evacuated solar tubes. A recirculating system ensures instant hot water at every tap. Each room has its own thermostat for customised climate control. In addition, a freestanding wood heater adds ambience and warmth on cooler days, while ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling in key areas ensures year-round comfort. Ceiling fans and cross ventilation offer sustainable temperature control in the warmer months.
Technology and smart living are deeply integrated throughout the home. Lighting is managed by a CBus system that allows for remote control, programmable scenes, dimming and even vacation modes. The home's audio-visual system is housed in a dedicated comms rack and controlled by RTI panel and Sonos integration. Music and TV can be streamed to multiple zones, and ethernet points are hard-wired to every room. Wifi boosters throughout ensure reliable coverage. Security cameras and remote lighting access offer peace of mind whether you are home or away.
A separate, self-contained garage/ studio opens up even more possibilities. With its own driveway, kitchen, toilet, and keypad entry, it is ideal for guests, a creative workspace or a home-based business. Internet and AV connections are built-in, and with minimal adjustments (STCA), it could even serve as a commercial cooking space.
Every aspect of this residence speaks to durability, design and liveability. Built to host, to last and to adapt, it is a true entertainer's sanctuary for high-end buyers who expect more from a family home.
