72 Adventure Bay Road, Adventure Bay, TAS, 7150, Australia

This home is a result of a lifetime design dream of the current owners, at every corner a true passion for the exquisite is expressed. Architecturally designed, local master craftspeople have meticulously applied their trades and the building is a showpiece of their enduring skills!

This property will make your every day a peaceful tranquil experience with the substantial home hidden from the main road via a gated and private entrance. Nestled within 10.10Ha (just shy of 25acres) of natural lush forest and surrounded with birds and wildlife!

Impressive, elevated ocean and channel views from this north-facing location will take anybody's breath away! Stunning views showcase the isthmus between North and South Bruny Island and are enjoyed from all the living spaces.

A generous interior open plan is further extended to offer inside/outside living with doors and concertina windows. This leads to the impressive L-shaped timber deck that also offers undercover entertaining.

The magnificent and far-reaching ocean panorama also extends beyond the Neck Beach with kunanyi/Mt Wellington and Cape Queen Elizabeth in the distance and can be enjoyed from both inside and the serene outside.

This two-storey building has been carefully designed with a curved roofline, to compliment the surrounding hills. Constructed of 50mm thick straw bale with clay bricks used in the internal walls as thermal mass. In winter they absorb the heat from the sun and in turn let the heat out at night. The home has double glazing throughout and the temperature remains constant and even.

Environmentally friendly, this masterpiece is currently off-grid and powered by what was a state-of-the-art solar system when the build was completed. There are 24 rotating solar panels with a backup generator and this extensive solar system has recently been upgraded to a modern and newly advanced system.

There isn't a detail in both the construction and the inclusions that's not been carefully considered. Even the straw used in the walls was grown and bailed in the north of the state. Finishes are of the highest quality including; auto shut Vellus roof windows, ethically sourced Blackbutt timber flooring in the upper level from Moama, quality and luxurious pure wool carpet, King Billy windows, combustion stove with wet back, Neff oven and Siemens induction cooktop, stainless steel kitchen bench tops, large marble topped island bench, and quality energy efficient appliances.

In addition to the superior craftmanship, warm interior tones have been incorporated with quality timbers, tiling and feature walls. The colour scheme has been inspired from the surrounds; the wall colour came from the colour of the trees when shedding bark. This adds to the lovely ambience that radiates throughout the entire home. The trend is quality, as well as both being comfortable and unique. The floorplan design even allows for private spaces to enjoy the scenic outlooks.

Three spacious bedrooms are each complemented by their own views and access and feel like private suites, all have abundant storage with quality built-ins. The bathrooms have been inspired with a dutch feel and upstairs has a huon pine bath. Added to this, there is a purpose-built artist's studio with sink large enough to fit a large sheet of paper and underlit glass bench top. This additional room with private access and deck offers multiple uses and would work well as a fourth bedroom or teenager's retreat.

The home has excellent TV reception and mobile coverage, with a phone landline in place.

There's a level courtyard and a large netted vegetable garden/orchard that has been fully established with apples, pears, apricots, quince and berries, amongst other varieties of fruiting trees.

There's an abundance of rainwater storage with four large water tanks, plus a dam with a fire hose running underground to the drive and connected to a pump. There is plenty of additional parking for cars or a boat and a double garage that includes a workbench, woodbox and remote-control door.
