Positioned in the heart of Bruny Island, Island Escapes is a beautifully presented three-bedroom home operating as stylish visitor accommodation, offering an idyllic blend of relaxed island living and established income potential.

Perfectly oriented to capture all-day sun, this elevated 671sqm block enjoys sweeping views across the D'Entrecasteaux Channel to Satellite Island and the distant Hartz Mountains and on special nights even the Aurora is visible from the veranda! Set within a peaceful, quiet neighbourhood with the pontoon, jetty and boat ramp literally opposite, the accommodation enjoys an impressive 4.82-star guest rating, with visitors consistently praising it as a "perfect place to stay in Alonnah, with beautiful views and easy access."

Inside, the home is bright, comfortable and welcoming. Large picture windows frame the ever-changing water outlook and flood the interiors with natural light. The upgraded kitchen and generous living area are ideal for relaxed island living, complemented by two reverse-cycle air conditioners ensuring year-round comfort. Guests frequently comment on the quality of the accommodation, noting it is a "very comfortable home, with all amenities and equipment provided."

Outdoor living is also a standout feature, with a generous L-shaped veranda and sheltered entertaining areas providing the perfect setting for long summer afternoons or relaxed gatherings with family and friends. Retaining garden beds are already in place, offering an excellent foundation for establishing a productive kitchen garden or ornamental landscaping.

The natural surrounds further enhance the experience, with local wildlife frequently visiting the property. Guests delight in sightings of wallabies, firetail wrens and bush hens, adding to the tranquil and immersive island atmosphere.
Operating as a busy and well-established holiday accommodation business, Island Escapes is offered with a walk-in, walk-out sale - fully furnished and with forward bookings in place providing immediate income. Alternatively, it is equally well suited as a permanent residence or private island retreat.

Practical features further enhance the property, including a large council-approved double garage, ideal for a boat and/or trailer, with an adjoining workshop space offering excellent versatility. Three rainwater tanks provide ample water storage, and there is plenty of additional off-street parking.

The location is exceptional.

A nearby foreshore walking trail follows the coastline, offering a scenic way to enjoy Bruny Island's natural beauty, wildlife and tranquillity.
