Ant's "Fluff-Free" Description...
This is one of Hobart's most tightly held and recognisable boatsheds, positioned right on the water at Cornelian Bay.
It is special, it is rare - and it is NOT a home.
If you're looking for a permanent residence, overnight accommodation, or something to live in - this is not it.
If you want a waterfront day-use retreat in one of Hobart's most iconic settings - read on.
