Set upon just over 20 acres of native Tasmanian rainforest, this sprawling country hideaway features a main residence, adjoining A-Frame, market garden and stand-alone bush retreat. Within 5 minutes of the gorgeous seaside town of Oyster Cove and an easy 25-minute drive into the Hobart CBD, this property offers its owners the flexibility to partially lease or short stay one or more of the bush cabins on site or utilise the multiple accommodation options for their own family and visitors to enjoy (STCA). The property is encased within an environmental living zone and has been recently classified as "land for wilderness" by the Tasmanian land conservation trust. This reflects the importance of the property to the native flora and fauna of the area, including wallabies, Tasmanian devils, pademelons, babook owls and the endangered Swift Parrot, all at home within this uniquely Tasmanian forest setting. The property is entered via an electronic security gate along your shared private* driveway, leading you to discover what is a truly spectacular native bush wonderland.

The master bedroom also has access onto the deck and is illuminated by a beautiful skylight, complete with automatic blinds. Conveniently adjacent to the master bedroom is a large bathroom, compete with retro sink pedestal and generous spa bath.

The Retreat Currently being leased privately, this building has also been Airbnb'd and was very popular with tourists travelling with domestic animals, due to its secure fencing and vicinity to the Bruny Island Ferry.

This garden is fully reticulated and is currently growing tomatoes, rhubarb, spinach, garlic, zucchini, various herbs, and pumpkin. Quite simply, there will no need to buy fresh vegetables again. Between the residence and the garden, a character firepit has been created, complete with an outdoor bath, serviced by hot and cold water. A truly special place to soak away your cares, relaxing with a refreshing beverage to the sound of a crackling fire. The established blueberry enclosure produces enough fruit each year to be sold roadside, gifted, or put into your own conserves. The property also contains several other outbuildings, the largest being a multipurpose wood/work shed. A spring fed dam irrigates the garden whist a man fern flanked creek flows all year round.
