Perched above the Huon River, this remarkable one-hectare property offers an extraordinary sense of peace, privacy, and connection to the Tasmanian landscape. With sweeping views across Brooks Bay and the Huon River below, 13 Eva Gully is a rare coastal sanctuary where light, nature, and thoughtful design come together beautifully.
At the heart of the property sits a striking, architecturally simple studio retreat, positioned to fully embrace the stunning outlook.
The studio faces north and is wrapped by a timber deck along its northern and eastern sides, perfectly positioned to capture golden morning light and breathtaking sunrises over the eastern hills and Huon River. Large double glass sliding doors frame the view, drawing the landscape into the interior and creating a seamless flow between inside and out.
Inside, a wood fireplace provides warmth and atmosphere, making the space equally inviting as a cosy winter escape or a bright, sun-filled summer retreat. The studio is fully serviced with gas hot water, power and rainwater tanks.
The land itself is a true oasis of Australian native flora, thoughtfully nurtured and alive with wildlife. The property is home to an abundance of birdlife, along with pademelons, possums, bandicoots, bettongs, and even quolls a rare and special aspect that underscores the tranquillity of this setting.
The block has been carefully terraced and landscaped to maximise usable space across the sloping site, creating multiple practical, level areas that enhance functionality and accessibility. Several dams support the landscape, while a substantial 48,000-litre rainwater capacity adds to the property’s strong infrastructure.
A prepared house site sits in a prime elevated position, looking directly out over Brooks Bay and the Huon River. Significant earthworks have already been completed, with power and water trenched and connected to the site, providing an excellent foundation for a future residence (STCA). A large, council-approved three-trench septic system is already in place, adding substantial value and reducing future development costs.
Further enhancing the appeal for those considering a future build, the property has previously held council approval for a dwelling. While this approval has since lapsed, a comprehensive suite of documentation is available to support a new application, including architectural plans, soil testing, bushfire assessments, contour surveys, and associated reports representing a substantial saving in both time and cost.
The approved design was for a high-end, architecturally designed residence, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright principles and incorporating a striking shipping container form featuring two 40-foot containers and one 20-foot container, connected via a central catwalk and complemented by extensive glazing, exposed timber beams, and hardwood flooring, thoughtfully conceived to respond to the landscape and capture the exceptional outlook.
Infrastructure across the property is exceptional. A formed gravel driveway runs the full length of the block, ensuring easy year-round access. A 40-foot shipping container workshop is connected with 15-amp power and has a water connection ready to be completed, making it ideal for storage, workshop use, or creative pursuits. In addition, an approximately 60sqm enclosed structure offers flexible potential suitable for a protected garden, poultry enclosure, orchard, or other uses depending on your vision.
Despite its remarkable sense of seclusion, the property remains well connected, with the townships of Dover and Geeveston just 15 minutes away, offering everyday services, cafés, schools, and shops. The pristine beaches of Surveyors Bay are also close by, completing a lifestyle defined by natural beauty, privacy, and ease.
Rarely does a property offer this combination of north-facing orientation, Huon River views, established infrastructure, and deep connection to nature. Whether as a peaceful retreat, a creative sanctuary, or the foundation for a future coastal home, 13 Eva Gully is a truly special offering.
