The Bruny Island Weekender is offered for sale for the first time since it was built by the current owner-managers in 2008.
This stylish, compact and sunny beach house is a landmark property in the increasingly popular seaside village of Dennes Point on North Bruny. It has been operated successfully as short-term visitor accommodation since new.
Designed by award-winning architect Maria Gigney and meticulously maintained by the owners, the house has two pavilions separated by an expansive 30 sq.m private covered deck. Two bedrooms and a shared ensuite with basin, lavatory and spacious shower are in the front pavilion, while the comfortable living space and kitchen/dining area is in the rear pavilion. Both pavilions have attractive elevated views over bush and across to the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, Tinderbox, North West Bay and the Wellington Range beyond.
Particular features of the property include the use of Tasmanian timbers, including polished silver wattle floors, celery top pine deck and oiled Tas Oak cladding; double glazing or UV glass throughout, an outdoor shower and a moveable bath on the deck; and internal wall and ceiling linings of hoop-pine ply with exposed joints. The living pavilion has a reverse-cycle heat pump and there are electric panel heaters in the bedrooms.
There is ample rainwater storage and a pressure system. A concrete driveway gives access to the foot of the stairs. It’s a short walk to the safe and sheltered Nebraska Beach. The new bistro, art gallery and providore at The Point are within a short drive on Nebraska Road or a pleasant walk along the beach and foreshore. Apart from the owners’ collection of artwork, everything else in the house is included in the sale, so the Weekender is immediately ready for new guests.
