1 Park Beach Road, Dodges Ferry TAS 7173

Occupying an unrivalled location, privately positioned and elevated to provide a bird?s eye view over Park Beach for as far as the eye can see, this spacious home has undergone a transformation in recent years with impressive results culminating in a stylish and comfortable, architecturally designed beach house.

Extensive glazing throughout captures the mesmerising vistas to be enjoyed from most rooms in the home, with every room on the entry level benefiting from double glazed doors and floor to ceiling windows. A generous open plan living room, dining and kitchen forms the heart of the home and provides a relaxed, casual living space with wood heating creating a cosy ambience for gazing across the ocean on cooler days and large doors opening onto the veranda and sandstone terrace to accommodate summer entertaining and larger gatherings. A further flexible space adjacent to the main living hub is suited to a family room or rumpus.

Two spacious double bedrooms on the lower level enjoy ocean views, one with ensuite and WIR and the other serviced by a central bathroom. A stair case from the family room reveals a third double bedroom with modern ensuite and BIR and a third living space looking over the bay making it the ideal creative studio or parents? retreat. White walls and lime washed bamboo flooring throughout offer a tasteful aesthetic and enhance the home?s connection with its idyllic surrounds.

Under the direction of local Tasmanian firm Beachouse Architecture, conscientious design features including the installation of floor insulation and replacement of windows and doors with UPVC double glazed glass, solar hot water system and a photovoltaic array in addition to north facing skylights on the upper level result in comfortable and energy efficient modern living.

A low maintenance coastal garden and sunny north facing private courtyard at the rear of the property frame the home and a double garage with internal access and shower for washing away the sand before entering the main house ensure amenity. Currently zoned residential, the owner has previously obtained commercial zoning and the property may be suited to commercial activities again (STCA).

This is a flexible home catering to both those seeking a lifestyle of tranquillity, falling asleep to the lapping waves and taking inspiration from the beauty around them and also buyers seeking a more active pace, with beach combing, fishing, sailing, paddle boarding and surfing just steps away. A thoughtfully designed beach house in a simply spectacular location less than 40 minutes from the Hobart CBD is indeed a rare market offering and an outstanding opportunity not to be missed!
