The Oast House was built around the end of the 1800s and was used to dry the hops which were grown on the farm for many decades.
A beautiful and considered conversion of the hop kiln into a residence was completed in 2010, blending the old with the new to create one of Tasmania's most stunningly unique homes. Nestled in the Derwent Valley, only 25 minutes from Hobart and 10 minutes from MONA, the Oast House offers an idyllic lifestyle, with multiple accommodation/and or business options. The property boasts southerly views towards Mt. Wellington and northwestern views towards Mt. Field. (20-minute drive).
Sorell Creek (which is home to Platypus and fish) and magnificent sandstone cliffs create a stunning backdrop on the Western side of the property.
During its operation, 16 hop pickers huts were built and utilised to house the families of the seasonal workers. One of the huts has since been converted to include a fully self-contained one-bedroom cottage, an artist's studio, and a gorgeous greenhouse.
