14 Cornelian Bay, New Town TAS 7008

Built between the 1890s and 1930s, the historic 36 Cornelian Bay Boat Houses have long been an iconic Hobart waterfront landmark and sought after piece of real estate for purchasers seeking an idyllic retreat just minutes from the Hobart CBD.

Sitting over the water and offering a magnificent vista, the convenience and tranquility of the location lends itself to a range of recreational activities including boating, kayaking and other water sport pursuits, an inspiring artist?s studio, the perfect space to host long, leisurely lunches with friends and family or just a place to escape the everyday without a tedious commute!

Number 14 remains largely untouched with original weatherboards and floorboards and is currently configured as one open plan area with kitchenette facilities, dining and sitting area. Glass doors open onto a sheltered, spacious and private deck. The floor plan also accommodates a chemical toilet.
Nearby is a small secluded beach with access to foreshore historic walking tracks, the Cornelian Bay Boat House restaurant offering waterfront dining and children's playground at the northern end of the bay. A short stroll away are the Botanical Gardens, the Domain native parkland setting, the bike track that links you to the city in one direction and MONA in the other.

Tightly held, this classic slice of Hobart history is a great alternative and less maintenance than a traditional shack, providing a rare opportunity to acquire the perfect waterfront sanctuary just moments from the city.

Please note this property is freehold for the building together with a crown lease for the water on which it sits to the high water mark and is for recreational use only. For further information please contact the agent.
