Description
Phone enquiry code for this property: 1214
Located on 24 hectares and encompassing about half a kilometre of the upper section of the creek called Allens Rivulet, this totally unique property is completely unrepeatable. Only a stones throw from Hobart and easy access to Kingston and Margate. It has a driveway that runs across the slope from Kaoota Road to a house site on a near level spur that hangs out over the little private valley catching the northerly sun all day. There is power right near the start of the driveway. The house site has a long view to the east with Tasman Peninsula visible on clear days, and a picturesque private view west up the valley to the setting sun. Below and in front is the majesty of your own little piece of Tasmanian wilderness on the doorstep of Hobart.
The already approved house site is for a special house, built bespoke for the unique location. It sits on a solid, mostly level easy access site on the edge of a dramatic little valley.
There is a walking track down from the house site to the creek floor area, with galleries of man ferns to walk under and explore during summer or for a private bush garden hideaway or two or bush fun for the kids.
There is a second possible building site beside the driveway on the way to the house site to build a little cabin for guests (STCA) with a separate small spring fed creek running right by in a clearing among the wattles.
The property has an old historic hand built bullock dray track that also meets Kaoota Road built by convicts early last century. It runs up beside the creek into the heart of the little valley where they dragged the swamp gums out in years gone by.
All this at just a skip into town, and only 5 minutes to the local service station at Sandfly. There are school buses to excellent local schools just down the road in the very horsey neighbourhood of Allens Rivulet.
Just up the road is the entrance to the old Kaoota Tramway line that is now a popular track for horses, bicycles and walkers. It heads over to Margate through the hills.
An easy care pocket sized wilderness with minimal fences and no troublesome paddocks. This is a low maintenance getaway at a scale that is unusual this close to town. There are no covenants, though it is in a biodiversity hotspot of paddymelons, bandicoots and wallaby. Platypus have been seen in this section of the rivulet which still has the little local yabbies thriving under rocks.
This is a truly unrepeatable property for a smart long term investor, or someone with a dream to build an inspiring house in a "wilderness like" location, but only really a quick drive to the galleries, coffee shops and vibrant culture of Hobart (mainland folks feel free to be jealous.)
This property is a truly unique parcel and must be sold soon, so reasonable and realistic offers will all be considered.
The address, directions more photos and other useful information will be provided upon inquiry. Extra photos and video from onsite may be provided for very serious buyers on the mainland unable to access Hobart at the moment.
