Escape to the Mediterranean in Bicheno
“Avalon” is one of the most unique architecturally designed waterfront properties in Tasmania. For those seeking total privacy, uninterrupted ocean views and prestige living complete with European charm a private inspection is a must.
Designed by Hobart Architect, Phillip Stary who took the exterior colour inspiration from the striking lichen on the boulders of the adjoining oceanfront, the home is just minutes from the Bicheno township and just over 2hrs drive from Hobart. Complete with a versatile layout of up to 4 bedrooms and two good sized living areas there are plenty of beautiful spots to relax and take in the views.
Bathed in sunshine all day long with early morning sunrises from multiple private decks. Sunsets can be enjoyed in the low maintenance native gardens or perhaps by the dams which come complete with a custom BBQ area and the opportunity to catch a yabbie or two. The property is self sufficient with 2 dams, 2 concealed water tanks, 2 water pumps and extensive irrigation. Double LUG, garden shed, workshop and greenhouse provisions included.
Offering an open plan layout, high vaulted ceilings, double glazed windows, Tasmanian Oak hard flooring and carpet throughout guests will also enjoy the Cheminees Philippe double sided glass fireplace which seamlessly links the lounge and dining rooms for easy entertaining. The kitchen comes with a 6 burner gas cooktop, plenty of storage and ocean views.
The guest bedrooms and master wing enjoy the privacy of being on different levels with full glass breezeway and character barn door with private garden access. On the lower level you have flexible layout options for the 4th bedroom or private study. A large second living room comes with substantial walk in storage and separate bathroom with hot tub. Internal access to another oversized workshop/gym room which could easily be converted to a 5th bedroom or cellar gives the purchaser many options to consider for a larger family.
Whether it is watching the Sydney to Hobart on your Christmas vacation, the whales migrating past over a glass of wine or the local boardriders catching the perfect wave you will never want to leave.
Nestled at the base of the hill next to the National Park the home is sheltered from the wind in the middle of 6 acres. Keep it all for yourself or perhaps consider a small subdivision STCA which would also include waterfront access without losing any privacy. 13.0 Rural Living Zoning enables visitor accommodation.
