From the superlative premium house site on the crest of the hill, the views sweep down over the forest to Adventure Bay and Fluted Cape, then northward across the waters of Storm Bay.

It’s the climax of this superb rural-residential property of 46.69ha (116 acres) above Simpsons Bay.

From the 800 m frontage on Simpsons Bay Road, a 700m gravel drive climbs through attractive bushland to the top of the hill. The property includes a dam and a patch of rainforest in the gully with a small creek in one area near the south-eastern boundary and several walking tracks are visible.

Alonnah, with health centre, chemist, hotel, shop and marina, is close by and it’s a short drive to Adventure Bay. The ferry terminal at Roberts Point is less than half an hour’s drive on a good sealed road, apart from a short unsealed section across The Neck.

The premium building site on top of the hill has been well cleared and another potential building site lower on the property has had preliminary clearing work done. One property boundary has been recently surveyed. The size of the land offers the potential for possible subdivision, subject to Council approval.

The property will appeal to a buyer seeking an investment opportunity on Bruny Island, where a boom in visitor and international tourist numbers continues to grow. It is also an ideal location to build a private and secluded permanent island home; to set up a short-term accommodation business close to the Adventure Bay tourism hot-spot; or to create a holiday retreat in a beautiful and unspoiled natural environment.
