Trish and Stu at 131 have a comfortable 3 bedroom shack looking past Huon Island to Bruny, just back from the low cliffs between Randalls Bay and Eggs & Bacon Bay – about 55 minutes from Hobart. An old Hydro house, it’s on a battleaxe-shaped, treed block of approximately 2.1 hectares, with a small dam, phone, power and tank water. There are lots of birds and native animals, and a track leads down to the beach, this being accessible only on foot or from the sea.
Says Trish “We would like to sell 2/3 of it to compatible people: valuations we’ve had suggest that a 1/3 share would cost between $100,000 and $120,000, though prices may have declined a bit.
We would all work out a set of conventions about using and maintaining the place. From having others use it, we have learned a few things about communication, clear expectations etc. We are retired and would have time to handle a booking system and be the first stop for any issues that arose, if that suited the co-owners.”
(At the moment it is made available to extended family and friends.)
If you’re interested, please email Trish for more info, photos etc.
