Set just 1 km out of the seaside village of Killiecrankie in the far north of Flinders Island, this retreat is ideally suited for those wanting to make a real, affordable seachange. The position is a gently slopping northerly aspect of 30 acres (12 Hectares) of low maintenance native tussock grass and blue gum woodland with abundant wildlife. The house is a 2 storey open-plan low maintenance Colorbond Dutch Barn design with panoramic views from all windows over Killiecrankie Bay, Mt Killiecrankie, the surrounding islands and valley. The property is close to beaches, mountains and reserves, offering countless forms of outdoor recreation – fishing, snorkeling, gem stone fossicking, water-skiing, beachcombing, mountain climbing, bushwalking, bird watching and so much more.
The house consists of 2 upstairs bedrooms wrapped around the lounge room with an open plan mezzanine floor. The downstairs has a spacious light open-plan dinning room/ kitchen lounge with fantastic vistas. The space is heated by a wood fire and concrete floor for passive solar heating in winter. Large sliding doors allow for great ventilation when required. On the ground floor is also a large bedroom with it’s own separate sliding glass door on to a private sheltered easterly patio. Another separate side room from this bedroom could
easily be converted to an ensuite. The back of the house has a good sized utility/boot room and to the west of this is the bathroom with full bath and
laundry facilities. The design and construction of the house allows for easy alteration to the floor plan.
The house sits on a 1/3 acre garden with 6 foot wildlife proof fences. A series of raised beds with windbreaks to the east of the house allow for a very sheltered garden. At the back of the house is a large 4 car garage and workshop, fully powered and similarly
of steel and colorbond. The 30 acres is suitable
to leave as natural vegetation, or light agricultural use. The property has been recently resurveyed with new wire and steel dropper fences around all boundaries. There is pressurised water supply of 15,000 gallons from 3 tanks. The house is wired for satellite Broadband and television with 3G mobile coverage
