Nestled in the heart of Tasmania’s Central Highlands, this beautifully renovated lakeside retreat offers a rare combination of mid-century charm, modern comfort and breathtaking natural surroundings. Set on an elevated 2-acre parcel overlooking Haddens Bay, Swan Bay and the expansive Great Lake/Yingina, the home provides an inviting haven perfect for those seeking tranquillity, inspiration or an escape from everyday life.
Inside, the residence blends timeless character with thoughtful updates including triple-glazed European windows, R4.0 insulation and an efficient multi-room heating system for year-round comfort. The sunroom, clad in warm Spotted Gum and flooded with natural light, frames panoramic lake views and can double as a second bedroom when required. The master bedroom offers floor-to-ceiling Tasmanian Oak wardrobes, a custom dresser, a renovated ensuite and direct access to a newly designed laundry and utility space.
