About this home

Full Description: Situated right at the gateway to Bruny Island in a peaceful rural setting, this waterfront four-bedroom home on Ferry Road offers a rare blend of natural beauty and everyday practicality — an excellent choice for families or groups planning an extended Tasmanian escape. Positioned in Kettering, just 25 minutes from Hobart and 15 minutes from Kingston, it feels genuinely secluded while remaining easily connected to city conveniences whenever needed. The home comfortably accommodates families and groups across four thoughtfully designed bedrooms, each offering a cozy space for restful sleep night after night. A traditional fireplace anchors the living room, inviting long evenings gathered together, while the sun-filled front room delivers breathtaking waterfront views over Oyster Cove that make every morning feel special. The spacious kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and ample counter space, supports genuine home cooking throughout an extended stay, and pets are welcome too — a real plus for guests who don't want to leave their furry companions behind during a longer trip. Outdoor life is a highlight here for guests settling in for a while. Local boat ramps and jetties are just steps away along Ferry Road — ideal for regular boating, fishing, or joining scenic sailing tours of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel. Coastal bushwalking tracks and local recreational ovals with play areas offer easy, repeatable outdoor activities, while the backyard's resident wallabies, birds, and ducks make daily life feel like living inside a private nature reserve. For those wanting to explore further afield during a longer stay, nearby coastal townships provide award-winning dining options, casual pub meals, and local seafood spots. The wider region — with its renowned vineyards, hiking trails, and cultural attractions — along with Hobart's city life, are all a short, scenic drive away, giving guests the freedom to explore at an unhurried pace. For families and groups seeking a peaceful, pet-friendly, and beautifully positioned long-term base near the ferry gateway, Ferry Road offers a genuine Tasmanian escape.
