Introducing the magical “Garden Island”
Nestled in serene seclusion at the end of a quiet dirt road, this remarkable rainforest property on Woodbridge Hill offers unparalleled privacy and tranquillity.
Zoned for environmental living, the property offers a world of opportunity. Whether you envision a peaceful rainforest escape, an eco-tourism venture, or a bespoke dream home, the possibilities are boundless.
Enveloped by nature, the property is free from passing traffic, with the nearest neighbour well out of earshot. Despite its peaceful isolation, the charming township of Woodbridge is just a 5-10 minute drive away, and the city of Hobart is within 45 minutes.
Spanning an impressive 31 acres, this property is a sanctuary of natural beauty. Towering old-growth forests, majestic tree ferns hundreds of years old, and the pristine year-round flow of Garden Island Creek creates a magical environment. The property has first access to the creek’s crystal-clear waters. Gravity-fed water infrastructure is already established, delivering fresh creek water to a tank positioned above the existing shed.
At the base of the block, a charming 4x4m non-habitable shed awaits. Thoughtfully constructed it offers a cozy refuge with work benches and space to store tools.
Nearby, an artisanal stone bath offers a rare treat —heated by a fire beneath a 450-liter urn filled with water from the creek water tank above, it’s the perfect way to relax after a day immersed in nature. See it to believe it!
Three of the property’s four boundaries adjoin the protected Woodbridge Hill Conservation Area, ensuring the surrounding natural beauty remains undisturbed and free from future developments.
For those seeking spectacular vistas, the upper portion of the property provides a prime site with sweeping 180-degree views of the Derwent River, Bruny Island, and the Huon region. A steep driveway takes you all the way up there. There is also a pre-existing old forestry trail that would also open the possibility more direct access to this incredible part of the property. Alternatively, a lower, more sheltered building parcel offers easier access and a lovely easterly aspect overlooking the valley.
For families looking for a change from the hustle and bustle and a more off grid lifestyle, Woodbridge offers classes from kindergarten through grade 12. Essential services like the post office, general store, community hall, and police station are just minutes away. For those who appreciate fine dining and scenic views, the renowned Peppermint Bay Hotel is 5 minutes down the road.
