160 hectares. Two titles. Almost 3km of coastal boundary.
Some properties are simply different – The defining feature is the coast!
Set across approximately 160 hectares and two substantial freehold titles on Tasmania’s Forestier Peninsula, 3754 Arthur Highway presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure a holding of scale, privacy and coastline rarely available to the market.
Almost 3km of the property’s boundary adjoins Crown foreshore reservation, extending along a combination of sandy beach and rugged rocky headland. With the Crown reservation creating a protected edge to the water, the coastline is yours to explore.
The coastline is virtually inaccessible to the public at large.
From elevated points across the property, the outlook is equally impressive, with expansive views across the waters of Norfolk and Frederick Henry Bays, surrounding bushland and distant ridgelines, including the Mt Wellington range.
With water on both sides of the Forestier Peninsula, the setting is quintessentially Tasmanian private, wild and remarkably connected to the coast.
King George Sound lies to one side, Norfolk Bay to the other, while the broader wilderness of the Tasman Peninsula begins almost at your doorstep. Eaglehawk Neck is within easy reach, and the East Coast is readily accessible by either road or boat (via Denison Canal at Dunalley).
Permanent mooring sites for boats exist at Murdunna, and in Little Bellettes Bay, surrounded by your own property (Marine Board of approval required).
An informal boat launching area into this bay has existed for over 100 years.
World-class surf beaches at Marion Bay (the Boneyard) and Eaglehawk Neck, each only some 10 minutes’ drive. Also Shipstern Bluff only a short boat ride from the area.
The property offers an established starting point with a substantial Colorbond shed, already positioned on the land. Whether used for equipment storage, a working base or the early stages of a future project, this infrastructure provides immediate practicality.
Most importantly, there is scope to shape the property around your own vision (subject to council approval)
The combination of scale, dual titles, extensive coastal boundary, protected foreshore and panoramic outlook creates a property with genuine flexibility and long-term potential.
This is not simply a large parcel of land. It is a substantial piece of the Forestier Peninsula, with coastline, privacy and room to create something entirely your own.
Opportunities of this scale and setting are exceptionally uncommon.
Should an acceptable offer not be received for the whole parcel, offers for Lot 1 only could be considered, this having most of the benefits of the parcel but on a smaller scale.
