Beautifully sited atop a private 5.5 acre rise with commanding views across the River Derwent and toward kunanyi/Mt Wellington, this exceptional 4-bedroom residence represents one of the finest residential works of acclaimed architect Barry McNeill. Built in 1994 by master craftsman and shipwright Craig Doran, the home remains completely original - an extraordinary testament to the precision, artistry and integrity of its makers.
Defined by McNeill's signature glazing, premium Tasmanian timbers and a deep connection to the landscape, the home offers sophisticated yet effortless living. The main lounge features a dramatic stone fireplace, while the open kitchen and dining area invite light, warmth and flow to alfresco decks. Two well-zoned bedrooms and a family bathroom occupy their own private wing.
Upstairs, the main suite is a serene elevated retreat with uninterrupted views, generous dressing space and a luxurious ensuite including dual basins, shower, WC and a Huon pine spa enclave built with remarkable shipwright detail. Above the garage, a large multipurpose room provides the perfect studio, rumpus or fourth bedroom option.
Additional features include a screened entry portico, powder room, full laundry, double garage with workshop, detached studio, extensive driveway and children's play space. At dusk, the home takes on a magical presence - glowing softly like a multi-faceted lantern overlooking the valley.
In 1982 Barry wrote of his work in exhibition at the Hobart Architectural Co op. "Trying to find the extraordinary in the ordinary" If we wish to communicate with and serve those with whom we live, it seems to me that we should not seek our language in the high styles of today and yesterday. Rather we should look in a democratic way at populist themes and the traditional vernacular, idioms that are likely to have the widest audience. So to the expression of the processes that produce and have produced them - landscape, comfort, materials, economics, building and desires. At the same time we should be seeking to explore what it means to be Australian and living on the edge of Asia in the twentieth century. I am not finding it at all easy to achieve these ideals, but I am still trying."
Presented to the market for the very first time, this remarkable home has been held and cherished since its creation. Its architectural pedigree, pristine originality and commanding position place it firmly among Tasmania's most important private residences. Opportunities to acquire a property of such integrity and provenance are exceptionally rare - and this is one that will not be repeated.
