Private Bush Haven

This unique home is a veritable haven - indeed, it is a voluntary wildlife sanctuary backed by pristine bushland. The perfect environment for busy couples seeking peace and quiet at the end of a hectic day. Wonderfully private, it's hard to believe the property is only twenty minutes from Hobart. The relaxed layout spans two levels, and has a glorious rural and North-West Bay panorama. The owners' appreciation of native timbers is apparent throughout the home, creating an ambient atmosphere. Approached over a small "bridge" flanked by lush plantings and a fish pond, the feeling of tranquility is echoed within, where open-plan living areas adjoin an efficient timber kitchen and, on this level, is the main bedroom with a two-way bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are upstairs, as are the bathroom and laundry. From this level one can wander through the upper garden, designed to delight with its get-away nooks; and to the studio or workroom. This is a home with a difference - sure to be appreciated by those who love privacy and space.
