Properties like this are rare and special.

An exclusive, elegant, contemporary home in Dover in a very private setting on sixty two acres with extraordinary views across to Bruny Island, Port Esperance Bay and west to Adamsons Peak and the Hartz Ranges. The home is accessed by a well kept private driveway that winds up through the bush.

The house of 249m2 is cleverly designed, beautifully maintained and set in an easy care wallaby proofed garden with a practical loop driveway providing car access to the door. The high ceilings, open plan spaces, floor to ceiling double glazing, solid timber floors and built in storage provide practical living and a timeless, gracious ambience. Walk in, feel the welcome, admire the position, relax!

The sun reaches into every room in every season and winter heating is guaranteed with a wood fired heater/cooker and hydronic heating. Open the clever tilting doors for cross ventilation in the summer. You will never need air-conditioning. Solar panels and 12v LED lighting keep costs to a minimum. There is generous rainwater water storage for the house and the garden as well as a bushfire sprinkler system installed.

There are three zones. Central to the home is the living pod with kitchen, dining and TV spaces set under a high curved ceiling with floor to ceiling picture windows that frame the amazing views. Off either side also with intriguing high curved ceilings are two more generous spaces opening from wide sunlit walkways that incorporate multiple easy access storage.

The western pod includes a 3rd bathroom, a large study, and the main bedroom with its own ensuite. The eastern pod has a laundry and is currently used as two double guest bedrooms with dual access to a separate toilet and bathroom. The bathrooms all have glass walls, connecting you with nature.

The house was purposefully designed to be multi-functional with alterations to the current use of space made easy just by moving large sliding panels and changing furniture. All rooms open externally and are private to the generous decks with the views captured from inside and out at every turn.

There is a 7.5mx9m garage for the cars, also great as a farm shed or workshop. Fences are well maintained and there are walking tracks to vantage points from which to enjoy the views and various aspects of the property. There are three dams that provide ample extra water supply should that be required.

This property is unique in that it is home to native species including the Southern Barred Bandicoot, Wombats, Echidna, Platypus, Quolls and Glider possums. It is also foraging habitat for Wedgetail Eagles and a breeding area for the endangered Bittern. The present owners have taken great care to ensure specific habitat and the general environment has been protected.
