Last Listing description (May 2026)
The Ultimate Nature Lover's Retreat
Escape to a world where the only soundtrack is the call of the Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoo and the gentle rush of the West Gawler River. Spanning 95 acres of awe-inspiring native forest, this property is a private ecosystem featuring soaring Mountain Ash, giant Tree Ferns, and 600 metres of pristine river frontage complete with private swimming holes and cascades.
Whether you are a wildlife photographer, a conservationist, or simply seeking a soul-rejuvenating lifestyle, this sanctuary offers unparalleled biodiversity. Share your morning coffee with Superb Fairy Wrens and your evenings with Platypus, Wombats, and the rare Giant Freshwater Crayfish, all under a night sky so clear it frequently dances with the Aurora Australis.
A Home with History and Heart
The residence is as unique as the land it sits upon. Originally a two-story warehouse on the Devonport docks, the structure was relocated in 1983 and masterfully transformed into a spacious, modern haven.
Living: Open-plan lounge and dining with raked ceilings and a cozy wood fire, framed by massive windows overlooking the valley mist.
Accommodation: Four generous bedrooms. Two ground-floor bedrooms feature ensuites, while the upstairs master suite offers a walk-in robe and elevated views of the dam and forest.
Design: North and east-facing windows flood the home with Tasmanian sunshine, while a dedicated sunroom and office provide perfect spaces for quiet contemplation or remote work.
The Grounds: An eclectic garden of European and native flora surrounds the home, complemented by an alfresco patio with a firepit for starlit entertainment.
Infrastructure & Exploration
This is a property equipped for self-sufficiency and creative pursuits:
Outbuildings: Large work-shed with a dedicated studio, double carports, and a rear garage.
Utilities: Gravity-fed spring water (with dam backup), satellite internet/Wi-Fi, and a mix of electric and gas hot water systems.
The Forest Trails: Miles of private walking tracks, including the "River Cliff Walk" and "Mountain Ash Walk," wind through the valley.
Heritage: Trace the history of the defunct Nietta-Ulverstone Railway, with original embankments and cuttings still visible on the property.
Secluded, Not Isolated
While you'll feel worlds away, the conveniences of the North West coast are within easy reach:
15 mins to Ulverstone for shops and cafes.
35 mins to Devonport (Spirit of Tasmania & Airport).
Short Drive to Leven Canyon, Gunns Plains Caves, and world-class wineries.
