Run to Paradise

51 Bay View Rd or 'Driftwood Cottages' as it has been known for many years is a rare gem in the seaside town of Dover in Tasmania's Far South and is just steps from the deep blue water of Port Esperance Bay. The area is known for its natural beauty, the snow capped Adamson's Peak in winter and the white sand of Kent Beach in summer.

On offer here is a chance to secure a 3 bedroom home with an enviable location as well as a successful business running 4 self contained villa units.

The main home is arranged over two levels, with a third level under the home for the practical day to day working areas of the business.

As you enter the main house it's easy to see why both guests and friends are blown away when they come around. Multiple sets of large sliding doors give easy access to the deck and allow for the views of the Bay to be fully enjoyed from almost every room. Wherever you choose to sit, your eyes are drawn to the water.

On the main level a staircase leads to the master suite, separating the two living areas and adding interest to this large, light and spacious area. To the right is the airy open plan kitchen/living/dining.

The kitchen is generous and built from Tasmanian timber, as are all the kitchenettes in the Villa units. In fact the Units are all named after the timber featured inside from Huon Pine to Sassafrass and others in between.

Back in the main home the downstairs bathroom is up-to-date in style and the perfect place to wash away the sand and salt from a day on the beach. There are two bedrooms on this main level as well, both with built ins.

Up the stairs to the Master, which is impressive in size, ammenities and outlook, there is a large walk in robe, and en-suite with a spa and a fantastic deck. Once you're on level 3 the views really are breathtaking!

In winter you can bring out the knitted throws and take up a warm spot either side of the wood fire to enjoy watching the weather roll in.

With so much on offer here just in the main house you may move down just for this lifestyle, however there is so much more to this property. The 4 villa units have been very successfully operating for more than 25 years and brings a fantastic income to an owner occupier or even offering the option of paying a manager to live in one of the properties and run the others and still bring in a profit whilst allowing for holidays on-site yourself.

The options for bringing in an income here are many and varied and are worth discussing, but this one really needs an inspection to be fully appreciated. Please call to discuss further or arrange a private inspection.
