Last Listing description (December 2024)

For the first time in over four decades, this extraordinary 2.68-hectare property is available, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of Tasmania's untouched natural beauty and craft your vision.

Situated just 12 minutes from Kingston and a convenient 25-minute drive from Hobart's vibrant CBD, this remarkable land presents an unparalleled chance to build your dream home and create the lifestyle you've always envisioned.

The property is a haven of native Tasmanian flora and fauna, showcasing a rich mix of wet sclerophyll and cool temperate rainforest. The landscape is adorned with a diverse array of native plants, including towering eucalyptus, wattles, tea trees, wild orchids and majestic man ferns. This natural wonderland provides sanctuary to a wide variety of wildlife, from birds and frogs to echidnas, wallabies, and even occasional sightings of platypus and Tasmanian Devils.

The pristine air quality nurtures a thriving ecosystem, where fungi, mosses and lichens flourish in the shaded valleys, while the elevated areas enjoy sunlight filtered through the forest canopy.

At the entrance to the property, a thoughtfully cleared area offers the perfect site for a home (subject to council approval). Imagine crafting your new home, where every detail reflects your vision and dreams. Picture a sanctuary perfectly nestled within this natural paradise, where the design of your home harmonises with the surrounding landscape. Whether it's a modern architectural masterpiece or a cosy, rustic retreat, this property offers the canvas to bring your dream to life.

From the placement of windows that frame breathtaking views of the forest to the selection of materials that blend seamlessly with the environment, every choice is yours to make. Here, you have the rare opportunity to create not just a house, but a home that embodies your ideal lifestyle, surrounded by the untouched beauty.

Adding to the property's appeal is a tranquil creek, along with freshwater underground springs, enhancing the natural allure of this secluded sanctuary. Zoned for Environmental Living and privately positioned amidst other attractive properties, this enchanting land offers a unique chance to immerse yourself in Tasmania's pristine wilderness.

The current owners have installed a septic system and water tank, currently servicing a camp kitchen housed within fully lined containers. These containers which include sleeping quarters and a bathroom offer a convenient temporary living solution while you plan and build your dream home. Please note these are not for permanent habitatation.

This is not just a piece of land; it's an opportunity to bring a dream to life—one that few have the chance to realise.
