Discover the Magic of “Peppermint Cove”
Peppermint Cove is a rare gem—a 10.5-hectare private peninsula boasting panoramic water views, located just 30 minutes from Hobart and 45 minutes from the airport.
This extraordinary property takes its name from Little Peppermint Bay to the south and Perch Bay to the north, perfectly situated between the charming towns of Woodbridge and Kettering. The single-level homestead commands a breathtaking 270-degree vista across the protected waters of the D’Entrecasteaux Channel, stretching toward both North and South Bruny Island.
Every room of this 296m² home is designed to maximize its stunning surroundings. All front and side windows—including those above the kitchen sink—frame exquisite water views. The high ceilings, expansive living spaces, and neutral color palette create a bright, stylish, and versatile interior, appealing to even the most discerning buyer.
Natural light streams through large picture windows, illuminating the home and showcasing the captivating views and tranquil Australian countryside. A 300-meter, tree-lined driveway provides absolute privacy as you approach the house, perfectly elevated to take in the scenery.
The outdoors is equally remarkable. Seals, dolphins, and the occasional whale share the waters with a variety of birdlife, including sea eagles and superb wrens. Multiple outdoor entertaining areas invite you to dine al fresco, relax, or simply soak in the serenity of this private and peaceful haven.
A Versatile Lifestyle Opportunity
The developed property is fully fenced and meticulously maintained, offering endless possibilities. Whether you envision agriculture, tourism development, or a mix of both, Peppermint Cove delivers. Currently, hay contractors utilize the lush grass for annual hay production, and casual local workers are available for ongoing maintenance.
For hands-on owners, the property is well-suited to livestock, while for those preferring a hands-off approach, its versatility shines through.
Peppermint Cove also offers abundant water resources, crucial for sustainable rural living. Two 90,000-litre concrete water tanks provide ample rainwater for household needs—just one tank has easily serviced the current owners for over 20 years. In addition, a 5-megalitre dam supplies water to gardens, orchards, lawns, and paddocks, presenting excellent potential for vegetable production and self-sufficiency.
Waterfront Living at Its Finest
The D’Entrecasteaux Channel’s sheltered waters are ideal for sailing, fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the scenery. Peppermint Cove offers unique private access via a 90-foot Crown Lands coastal fringe. A boat mooring is available, along with a dinghy stored on the remnants of an early settler’s jetty.
For boating enthusiasts, the nearby Kettering Yacht Club and Oyster Cove Marina offer modern facilities, including hard stands and on-site trades.
A Welcoming Community and Convenient Location
Peppermint Cove is surrounded by strong, vibrant communities. Nearby Woodbridge and Kettering feature restaurants, cafes, hotels, and frequent events, including music concerts. The highly regarded Woodbridge School, which caters from kindergarten through year twelve, is just 2km away.
Daily conveniences are close by, with an IGA supermarket 10 minutes north in Snug and major shopping available in Kingston, a short 20-minute drive. Metro bus services provide an easy commute to Hobart for work, private schools, university, or city shopping.
