Amazing water views. Fantastic beach access (maybe 20 meters down a path to a protected beach). The beach has a sandy area for swimming (with pontoon) and rock pools and small sandstone caves/ cliffs at each end for kids to explore. The house is modern and has plenty of room including 2 living areas. Well stocked kitchen for home cooking. There is also a cafe a short walk along the beachside track which has decent coffee and pastries. Easy access from Hobart for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend this house and location. ##### Romy N.
