Welcome to 273 Kent Beach Rd Dover. A private, peaceful sanctuary, where you really can enjoy the good life. A beautiful country property bathed in the all-day sun. You will never tire of the spectacular views, nor the joy of having a white sandy beach just across the road. Watch extraordinary sunsets over Adamsons Peak Mountain as you sit on your back verandah, listening to birdsong and the sound of the waves.
Reminiscent of a European farmhouse, the character filled home sits on 21 acres of cultivated gardens, pasture and natural bushland. The combination of weighty hardwood timbers and rendered block used in construction give the house a reassuringly sturdy presence in the landscape. Reclaimed doors and exquisite stained-glass windows are found throughout the home. Northern light floods the house year-round enhanced by the ample use of large picture windows and multiple French doors, creating a wonderful indoor-outdoor connection.
At the heart of this home is the charming country kitchen where you will be inspired to create your favourite food memories. There is copious storage, including a floor to ceiling pantry with pull out drawers and a walk-in larder. You will also find an induction cooktop, two ovens and an integrated dishwasher. The stone bench tops are extensive, and the island bench has been positioned to take in the beautiful outlook.
The spacious main bathroom has a stunning pitched ceiling, French doors, with claw foot bath, shower and a large vanity.
The three exceptionally large bedrooms are located upstairs with built in robes. The Master bedroom has a walk-in robe and enjoys magnificent views over Port Esperance Bay and Adamsons Peak.
Outside, the property is beautifully landscaped. Aggregate paving surrounds the home. This, together with the stone circular garden beds, espaliered fruit trees, water feature, mature Cypress trees and capacious hedging create a wonderful Mediterranean ambience.
There are two dams on the property with electric and petrol pumps to service both the ornamental and food gardens. Four rainwater tanks hold 65,000 litres of drinking water. Electric vermin proof fencing surrounds the gardens, whilst post and wire farm fencing takes care of the land boundaries. The garden includes a productive organic hothouse, numerous vegetable beds and an abundance of fruit and nut trees including hazelnuts, walnuts and chestnut, several apple varieties, Nashi, apricots, plums, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi fruit, elderflower and a cherry copse. These produce the most delicious harvest throughout the Summer and Autumn months.
The north facing aspect of the home is effectively utilised with a 4.2-kilowatt solar system and separate solar hot water captures the north facing sun.
As you approach the property from the driveway you will come to the Studio. A delightful space with cathedral ceilings and wooden floorboards. There are two bedrooms and a large kitchen with stunning Blackwood benchtops that have recently been installed. The kitchen includes a large Electrolux induction cooktop, oven and an AEG dishwasher. The Studio enjoys perfect views over the bay and to the mountain beyond.
The township of Dover is a very convenient two minutes’ drive away, with an IGA, post office, chemist, Dr’s, hairdressers and eateries. Hobart city is an hour and fifteen minutes scenic drive away.
This stunning rural retreat offers an idyllic coastal lifestyle, filled with absolute peace and privacy and all the benefits of a country life.
