VISITORS to Bruny Island are drawn to the seclusion and privacy and that’s exactly what’s on offer in this award-winning hot tub retreat.

Hundred Acre Hideaway provides beautiful accommodation in a peaceful setting and the unique opportunity to soak in spring-fed tubs while enjoying breathtaking views out to the Southern Ocean.

The property has three residences, each fully self-contained and offering their own unique design.

Each features an open-plan living, kitchen and dining area warmed by wood heaters.

Two 250kg gas bottles provide instant hot water, as well as power for cooking and fridges.

The manager’s or main residence is set within a fenced compound for privacy, with the bonus of an outdoor fire bath and a fire pit.

Absolute paradise.

Total tranquillity.

This property is sustainable living at its best. There is no electricity, water or sewerage bills with all electricity manufactured onsite via 3000kW of north-facing solar panels that feed into a new bank of 12 batteries. First National Real Estate consultant Laureen Wood said that environmental lifestyle properties offering business opportunity on this scale were rare.

“This property is much more than an off-grid private and secluded luxury accommodation experience,” she said.

“Recently a flock of Suffolk Ewe sheep were successfully bred and sold at market reaching a premium price.”

This acreage has a permanent spring-fed creek that provides pure water.

The property holds a commercial water licence, as well as riparian rights to this pristine water.

The tubs are a unique feature designed in the style of a Japanese wooden “ofuro” bath – deep with steep sides. The term means “mind like water” or being relaxed and in the flow of life.

Spot for a cuppa.

The highly insulating properties of the Western red cedar tubs will store the heat for many hours and outdoor bathing in hot water provides a unique contrast between the crisp night air.

About 8ha of cleared land is divided into the four irrigated paddocks and a portable electric solar fence can be used to create an extra three paddocks.

As well as grazing stock, this fertile land could support agricultural enterprises such as blueberries or olives.

Five walking trails have been established, one of which is a wild harvest native pepper berry forest that grows along the creek line and is harvested each February. These berries have featured in the Bruny Island Beer Co’s ales.

A 12m x 18m prize winning vegetable garden was created as part of the Mona Victory Gardens challenge.

The enclosed, netted garden features 5m x 18m long beds and contains 41 different vegetables, herbs and trees with a second established 4m x 8m netted garden and orchard also offering an abundance of fresh produce.
