It’s seldom that the opportunity to own a lifestyle property with long frontage to Shoreline Reserve presents!! This waterfront reserve acreage offers the chance to build a unique waterside home – or plant a vineyard – or grow olives, or any of the many other diverse possibilities that are on offer.
This large lifestyle lot has privacy and the feeling of being a million miles away yet is close to the capital city. Literally two minutes from the Roberts Point ferry terminal makes this property a comfortable commute from Hobart city, which is an easy twenty-five-minute drive from Kettering.
Long and lush stretches of good-quality, north-facing pastureland slope down to meet mature native forest fringing the shores of a sheltered arm of Barnes Bay. The entire northern boundary of this property is the Shoreline Reserve. There are two creek lines on the land, both marked by stands of eucalypts and blackwood’s, with a permanent dam located on one of the creeks.
The orientation of this block ensures year-round sun over its fields. This parcel enjoys straightforward access off Lennon Road through a gate and power running straight past the boundary makes this an easy to develop site. Having access off the main road, this property is ideally located for somebody wishing to start a paddock to plate or vine to bottle style business that Bruny Island is renowned for.
This is a place where we can leave our busy, stressful lives to return to a more natural environment. Native bushland supports an abundance of birdlife and along the waterfront the land is a microclimate for a variety of native marsupials. Adjacent to the Shoreline Reserve is a one-room shack with brick floor and sliding glass doors to capture the view that could be used for weekend camping.
With several spectacular homesites on the land, any number of locations could be chosen for a building that would enjoy seclusion and privacy. A build in one of the many proposed sites would receive full sunshine from an elevated northerly aspect, as well as expansive water and coastal vistas. The views take in Lodge Bay across Barnes Bay to Quarantine Bluff and Woodcutters Point, with Mt Wellington’s summit in view to the north-west. Minutes away is sheltered anchorage in Sykes Cove for those wishing to sail in!
Surrounded by other large acreages, freehold coastal land of such superior quality and visual appeal is increasingly rare and sought-after. Properties in a picturesque setting like this don’t come up for sale often – if you’re in the market for something truly special, this could be the dream you’ve always aspired to have.
