The Hobart Entrance
Tasmania
At a glance
The Hobart Entrance is a five-acre accommodation estate in Kingston, set on the foothills of kunanyi/Mount Wellington above the Derwent River entrance. The elevated position looks across the water towards Kingston, the Tasman Peninsula and Hobart, with views extending towards the Tasman Sea. The setting combines a bushland atmosphere with access to the greater Hobart region.
Designed as a substantial private residence, the home pairs architectural character with contemporary comfort. Tasmanian timbers feature throughout the interiors, including Blackwood wall panelling, Tasmanian Oak cabinetry and Huon pine details. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring natural light into the living, dining and kitchen areas while keeping the surrounding landscape in view.
The main living room includes a fireplace, refined furnishings and a generous outlook. A connected library and media room provides a quieter space for reading, working or watching a film, and includes a king-size sofa bed that can serve as an additional bedroom. The open-plan arrangement allows the kitchen, dining area and living room to function as a shared gathering space.
The kitchen is designed for self-catering, with an induction cooktop, oven, microwave oven and dishwasher. A dining area opens towards the back patio and garden, providing a link between the indoor living spaces and the outdoor setting. Three king-size bedrooms each have a private ensuite, giving the accommodation a practical layout for families, couples travelling together or small groups seeking separate sleeping and bathroom areas.
The property suits guests looking for a private base with room to spend time indoors as well as explore southern Tasmania. Kingston shopping centres, Kingston Beach, Blackmans Bay, the golf course and coastal walking routes are within the surrounding area. The location also provides a base for visits towards Hobart city, the Huon Valley, the Channel and the Bruny Island ferry. Birdsong, changing light and the elevated outlook add to the atmosphere, while the fireplace offers an inviting feature for cooler evenings.
