A PROPERTY hunter would need to search far and wide to find a coastal home that compares with Hamptons on the Bay.
The name says it all, really. This is luxe living at its finest.
This gorgeous, fully updated Rocky Hills property is perched in an unforgettable position with uninterrupted water views stretching out and on forever.
It is also just a 12-minute drive south of Swansea or 117km to Hobart.
And while the main residence is truly a treat, the property has plenty more to offer: a group of seven cabins and an original, large cottage brimming with potential.
Coastal dream come true.
Way to make an entrance.
It’s got wow factor.
Knight Frank property consultant Nina Schubert said this luxurious clifftop property had hit the market running and had been especially popular one a specific type of buyer: Tasmanians.
That’s not to say an interstate purchaser won’t be the eventual buyer, but in the campaign’s early stages, locals have led the way.
Ms Schubert said the freehold and business had attracted a diverse inquiry group.
“We have had some retirees that would love to live in the beautifully renovated main residence. It would make a gorgeous home,” she said.
“They would use the cabins to produce a bit of income.
“Then we have had some savvy younger couple that might run Hamptons on the bay more aggressively, I suppose.
“They might use the residence for accommodation and then invest in updating the property’s five-plus bedroom caretakers cottage, which was the original home on the property.
“Currently it provides an office space for the business, however, there is plenty of scope to renovate it and add further value and accommodation potential.”
Totally stunning.
Heavenly vista.
Luxe living.
While the property has only been on the market for days rather than weeks, Ms Schubert said potential buyers were quickly putting their best foot forward.
“There are multiple interested parties, one that has put an offer in already, and the majority of them are locals,” she said.
“The price, $2.75 million, is showing really good value to potential buyers.”
At a time, this property was known as the home of Kabuki by the Sea, a Japanese restaurant with an exquisite reputation.
Ms Schubert said there had been interest from buyers that would like to reinstate a restaurant on the site.
“It had an amazing reputation. Everyone that we have shown through the property remembers Kabuki.
“For some, I think it has got their imagination flowing. It was a “destination”, a place that people would make an effort to visit just for the experience of dining there.”
Entry into the main residence is via a large and lovely entry foyer.
Slice of paradise.
Superb aspect.
It quickly makes a design statement for the quality of the home and the spaces yet to be explored.
The deluxe home — updated in the mid 2010s — offers three bedrooms and three bathrooms. Two are super spacious, one has a built-in wardrobe, and they all take in the spectacular views.
The enviable residence is highlighted by an open plan living zone that stretches 8.5m by 12.3m.
“The tall ceiling height, the lighting and the exposed beams create a stunning living space,” Ms Schubert said.
“While it is beautiful in the photos, it’s even more impressive in person.
“When you arrive and drink in that feeling of being right on the water through the floor-to-ceiling windows, it’s superb.”
Outside, alongside the epic views, the property offers grassed areas, stone walls, an outdoor entertainment spot and a fire pit.
What a spot.
Soak it all in.
The accommodation cabins are perched privately away from the main home but in a location that allows them all to take advantage of the wonderful views.
They are all of a similar size, 42-43sq m, with a single bedroom, open plan living and a bathroom.
One cabin is larger at 50sq m and offers two bedrooms and a larger kitchen.
Each cabin has a security code for after hours check-in.
“Be it the business growth potential or the exquisite home, the property has so much to offer,” Ms Schubert said.
Hamptons on the Bay is strategically located on the Great Eastern Drive.
From its perch on a rocky headland, it takes in spectacular views over Schouten and Maria Islands, Great Oyster Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula.
