The Shack community at Southport has over the years become recognised for its wide ranging appeal be it the many glistening white sandy beaches that offer private options or fun for the children, the great fishing and diving which has been enhanced more recently by the annual return of the popular Tuna fishing. Abalone and Crayfish are in abundance for the recreational fishermen along with flathead and Striped Trumpeter to name but a few. For the more nature conscious visitor it has some of the most remote and picturesque walks on offer in all of Tasmania. Tasmania's rugged wilderness and world Heritage area is on Southport's Doorstep offering photographic delights around every corner. Whatever life you walk it is here for you in spades. The Southernmost Tavern in Australia offers meals 7 days a week, petrol station and small take away and amenities store. The new dual boat ramp opens the gateway to the South East coast or in the other direction the sheltered waterways of Hastings and the Lune River. It's a short drive to the tourist popular Hasting Caves and Thermal Pool which is a great place for a family BBQ and a refreshing dip and the Ida Bay railway runs the small town of Lune River to magnificent Deep Hole which is coincidentally 5 minutes from the Southport boat ramp. If that's not your cup of tea there are many quiet corners to relax read a good book and get some peace and recovery.
Lot 3 Heather Street is 2450m2 and is almost level which offers a great opportunity for low cost building. From its elevated position it offers great views over Kingfisher bay and further toward the southern end of Bruny Island. It's also a hop skip and a jump to the main Kingfisher Beach. The sandy soil will keep building costs to a minimum and depending on where you situate your dwelling and with infrastructure connection to the council sewerage line there is as very real possibility of further subdividing STCA. Power is provided at the site so all that is needed is your ability to take advantage of this beautiful lifestyle opportunity.
