A touch of the Hamptons, a significant slice of the Tamar, a property that’s quintessentially Tasmanian – yet universally tempting, ‘Froggy Bottom’ is a private estate to escape to, an alluring retreat that reveals itself in a measured, memorable manner before concluding with spectacular sights from its significant river frontage.

A productive orchard, one of two, and established trees line a driveway that traverses the beautiful block before arriving at a home that brings the Hamptons to mind in a way that’s desirable rather than derivative, individual instead of imitative.
Created to capture natural light all day long, constructed of double brick to enhance its ability to stay warm in winter, cool in summer, the residence’s flexible formal lounge leads to a separate living/dining domain featuring access on two aspects to paved terraces, one a north-facing sun trap, its counterpart a fabulous expanse for outdoor entertaining against a brilliant backdrop of the garden’s greenery and the river’s scenery.

A kitchen equipped with stone surfaces, a Miele cook-top and dual Fisher and Paykel ovens appreciates its own view across the terrace while a third living zone, ideal as a games room, library or children’s lounge also opens to the superb sweep of garden that watches the water and looks across to Hillwood and beyond.

Three bedrooms, including a romantic main bedroom, surround the stylishly renovated, impressively appointed bathroom of a home that’s complemented further by a self-contained, free-standing granny flat for guests – who will certainly want to stay!

Stone fruit, citrus and vegetables thrive, a secure garage contributes great work-shop/storage and options to consider sub-division on some 3.5 acres or 1.383ha, (STCA) are additional attractions of this uniquely appealing opportunity, in its own Tamar-side world, yet within such easy reach of Exeter township, Legana shopping and Launceston itself.
