1135 Cygnet Coast Road, WATTLE GROVE, TAS 7109

There are very few places in Tasmania where the waterfront feels this gentle. Where the river widens into a long, calm expanse and the hills hold the light all day. Where the water is sheltered, deep enough to sail, and quiet enough to kayak at sunrise. Where the road itself is quiet and intimate, not a highway, just a small and cherished coastal drive known mostly to those who live here.

This is the setting for 1135 Cygnet Coast Road. A home that feels as though it belongs on the shores of a European lake, yet stands here among the gardens and waterways of the Huon River.

The entrance to the property, via a wide, circular driveway, is impressive yet welcoming. Sandstone walls encircle gently curving garden beds. Japanese maples frame the front of the home, providing seasonal colour and shade.

Inside, polished Tasmanian oak floors carry through generous living spaces, all oriented to the gardens and the river. Large picture windows and wide bi-fold and stacker doors allow for an
effortless transition between indoors and outdoors. The air, the view and the light feel like part of the interior.

The main living and dining areas look north and west toward the water and the often snow-capped Hartz mountains. The kitchen is both elegant and practical and has been updated with
European appliances. Both the kitchen and dining area open directly to the Spotted Gum decks, and an automated wind-sensing awning creates a sheltered outdoor room that can be enjoyed across the seasons.

A library sits on the lower level, filled with natural light that filters through the gardens. Double doors, when open to the sandstone paved courtyard, enhance the European feel of the home.
There is also a fourth bedroom or study here, offering flexibility for working from home or hosting guests and an option for less mobile guests to be on the ground floor.

Upstairs, the master suite takes in a long sweeping view of the river that can be seen from the bed. Two additional bedrooms upstairs also enjoy the outlook across gardens and river.
The established gardens include roses, rhododendrons, magnolias, camellias and maples, and feature hedged pathways and lawns sloping down towards the river. Careful planting and
landscaping ensure a constantly changing canvas of colour throughout the year. Stone terraces and sandstone paths lead to sitting places and hidden corners where you can quietly observe
the vibrant birdlife and brilliant sunsets of the Huon River.

From the lawn, a gentle path leads down to the foreshore and the private licensed timber jetty. Here you can load a tender, launch a kayak or moor a small yacht in the calm water beside the
jetty. The river is a place to explore year-round, with sheltered boating through the Huon River estuary and the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. It is sailing without swell, fishing without drama and
water you can be on almost every day of the year.

The current owners have invested thoughtfully in the home, renewing the Spotted Gum decks, refurbishing key interiors and upgrading heating and kitchen elements. A ground-mounted solar system with a battery offsets the home's energy needs.

This property has a quiet elegance. It is generous without being grandiose, private without feeling remote, refined without losing warmth. It could be a permanent residence, a private
retreat, or a boutique accommodation and wedding venue of remarkable charm, subject to approvals.

Cygnet is just over the hill, offering cafes, wine bars, fresh produce, craft shops and a strong creative community. Huonville is close enough for services and Hobart is within comfortable
reach. Yet here, you feel very much in your own world.

1135 Cygnet Coast Road is not simply a home on the water. It is a lifestyle that allows you to enjoy the constantly changing vistas of river, sky and mountains as well as the quiet luxury of
stepping from your lawn to your own jetty.

Private inspection is warmly invited.
