    Clean, spacious but cosy with stunning views. Quite and remote location yet so close to so much.
  • Greg

    Great location with fantastic views. Very easy to communicate with the host. The fireplace was well used and the complementary bottle of bubbles for our Anniversary was well received. Would recommend to others.

Discover an extraordinary waterfront home that will leave you enchanted. Just 30 minutes from Hobart CBD, but a million miles away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Take the time to unwind in this calm and beautiful place, surrounded by Tasmanian nature at its purest, in your own piece of paradise. This stunning home is set on 8 acres of light bush, overlooking Ralphs Bay. Just a crown reserve between you and the water. Enjoy complete peace and privacy with constantly changing water views from every room in the house, even the bathroom! Indulge yourself with the little extra luxuries, from the inbuilt espresso machine, loose leaf teas, locally made granola, to the ultimate free-standing bath overlooking the water. Cook up a storm in the chefs kitchen and enjoy your meal indoors, surrounded by the view, or alfresco, on one of the huge decks. Read a book from the library, watch a movie or just relax with a glass of your favourite Tassie beverage in front of a roaring log fire, or out on the deck (depending on the season, or how hardcore you are). A number of beaches are within a few minutes drive, including the great surf at Clifton Beach and the sheltered and safe swimming at Opossum Bay. The fabulous Tangara Trail, accessed from the bottom of the block, provides kilometres of walking track along the waterfront. For the energetic there are a range of activities nearby including fishing, bushwalking, swimming, stand up paddle boarding, surfing and wine tasting. You can even embark on the captivating pursuit of Aurora Australis sightings - Goat's Bluff Lookout is just 3 minutes away by car, one of the best viewing platforms in Southern Tasmania! Then again you may just want to spend all your time in the house, eating, drinking, relaxing, and simply spending time with your family and friends!
Hi! I'm Emma and I live here in Tasmania with my child Cillian. You can typically find us taking advantage of southern Tassie's dry weather by running, surfing, sea swimming, or road tripping. I am originally from the UK but the variety of the Tasmanian wilderness, it’s incredible food and of course the people, stole my heart. Now this is my home! I hope you can come and explore my adopted home, and cherish it as much as I do.
Sandford is a rural location on a beautiful peninsula about 30km outside Hobart. It is known as "Paradise Peninsula" by the locals and you will see why when you get here. It is stunning bushland set on a seascape, surrounded by tidal bays and white sand beaches. Dotted in the bush are the properties of the lucky locals set on large blocks of 5 the 8 acres, most with fabulous views over the ocean and Mt Wellington. It truly is a remarkable part of Tasmania but we live here so we might be biased! Surrounding coastal hamlets include Cremorne, Clifton Beach, South Arm, and Opossum Bay, each totally charming. Lauderdale is just a 10 minute drive away and boasts a Hill Street Grocer (a Tassie treasure), a gourmet butchers, gym, pharmacy, post office, garden centre, multiple trendy cafes, restaurants, pub, bottle shop, Thai & Japanese takeaway, surf/SUP board hire, a canal walk, and gorgeous beach. Just 5 minutes down the road from Lauderdale is Glebe Hill, a large shopping centre with a Woollies, bakery, multiple popular takeaways (maccas, subway, pizza etc) and all the other essential services.
