Last Listing description (February 2026)

Perfectly positioned to capture spectacular views across the Kettering Marina, the D'Entrecasteaux Channel and Bruny Island, this exceptional home offers an enviable lifestyle alongside a rare opportunity to secure a truly future-focused investment. With subdivision far beyond a mere concept and much of the groundwork already in place, pending final zoning approval anticipated mid to late 2026, this opportunity places buyers in an outstanding position to capitalise on what lies ahead.

One of Tasmania's most picturesque seaside towns, Kettering is a peaceful waterfront community just 30 minutes south of Hobart and 20 minutes from Kingston. Framed by rolling green hills and sparkling waters, the township offers relaxed coastal living with the convenience of an easy commute.

The vibrant marina, with over 300 berths, forms the heart of the town and is the departure point for the Bruny Island ferry. Local amenities include waterfront cafs, the historic Oyster Cove Inn famed for seafood and views, a bakery, specialty chocolate shop, sporting facilities, and a community hall hosting events and concerts.

Fishing enthusiasts will value nearby Trial Bay boat ramp access to world-class fishing including southern bluefin tuna, kingfish, snapper and King George whiting, along with local abalone and rock lobster.

Known as the gateway to Bruny Island, Kettering provides access to pristine beaches, gourmet produce and abundant wildlife. The region is celebrated for artisanal cheeses, fresh oysters, boutique wines, whiskies, craft beers and handcrafted chocolates, alongside coastal walks and regular sightings of dolphins, seals and migrating whales.

A Truly Exceptional Lifestyle Property

Set on approximately 2.49 acres (1.01 ha) of usable land with beautifully landscaped gardens, this expansive and light-filled residence offers 350 sqm of internal living, plus 90 sqm of verandahs and decks, along with multiple workshop and storage structures.

Elevated to maximise sunshine and views, the majority of the home was constructed in 2012, with an extension and comprehensive renovation completed in 2019, including upgraded electrical and plumbing throughout. Comfort and efficiency are assured with reverse-cycle heat pumps, double glazing, and quality insulation.

Multiple living zones include a generous open-plan lounge and dining area with extensive glazing across the eastern faade, capturing breathtaking sunrises over the marina and Bruny Island. Sliding doors connect seamlessly to the sun-drenched entertaining deck, ideal for morning coffee or evening gatherings as the sky softens at dusk.

A welcoming sunroom with Juliette balcony provides an elegant entry, while a central atrium floods the home with natural light. The gourmet kitchen features quality Bosch and Westinghouse appliances, a large walk-in pantry and expansive black stone benchtops ideal for entertaining and everyday living.

Accommodation includes five bedrooms, highlighted by a luxurious master suite with walk-in robe and private ensuite. The family bathroom includes bath, shower, vanity and toilet, complemented by a separate WC. A spacious laundry and additional mudroom with cleaning facilities suit both family and country living.
