76 Wisbys Road

There's something special about leaving the mainland behind. As the ferry makes its way across the water to Bruny Island, life begins to slow down. The everyday rush feels a little further away, and the simple pleasures of being somewhere beautiful take centre stage. Imagine having a place where you can escape for the weekend, spend long summer days on the water, gather with friends and family, or simply enjoy the peace of island life. A place that feels like a destination, yet has all the comforts of home.

Overlooking the sheltered waters of Quarantine Bay, 76 Wisbys Road offers exactly that, and so much more. Set across approximately 1.51 hectares of gently sloping land, this remarkable property brings together a beautifully crafted residence, separate guest accommodation and an impressive multipurpose building designed for entertaining, creativity and pursuing your passions. The main residence is full of warmth and character, with soaring cathedral ceilings, beautiful Tasmanian Oak, generous living spaces and expansive windows framing the ever-changing views across the bay.

Thoughtfully constructed with double glazing, excellent insulation and multiple heating options, it's a home designed to be enjoyed comfortably throughout the seasons. The kitchen is generous and practical, with beautiful timber bench tops and plenty of space to prepare meals and enjoy the company of others. Spacious bedrooms with private bathroom facilities offer a lovely sense of comfort and retreat. But life here extends well beyond the home itself.

For those who love being on the water, the property comes with a licensed mooring in Quarantine Bay, access to a shared jetty and easy access to the beach for launching a dinghy or kayak. With the boat ramp at nearby Barnes Bay, fishing trips, boating adventures and quiet mornings exploring the coastline can become part of everyday life. And when it's time to bring everyone together, there's something quite extraordinary waiting. The substantial two-storey multipurpose building is a destination in its own right.

Upstairs, a magnificent seven-metre Celery-Top Pine bar takes centre stage, complete with commercial drinks refrigeration and beer-tap facilities. An expansive entertaining area opens onto a balcony overlooking the bay, creating an incredible setting for long lunches, celebrations, music and memorable evenings with the people you love. Downstairs, the possibilities continue with mechanical and carpentry workshops, a bathroom and laundry, and a large sound-insulated space previously used as a music studio and also a home office.

Whether you're a musician, artist, collector, hobbyist, waterman or simply someone who appreciates having room to create, there's an abundance of space to make your own. A separate, fully equipped cottage close to the beach provides another wonderful dimension to the property. Ideal for visiting friends and family, extended stays or exploring accommodation opportunities, it allows guests to enjoy their own space while still being part of the experience.

The grounds offer open grassy areas, a creek-fed dam and beautiful views stretching across the water, with plenty of room to relax, explore and enjoy the natural surroundings. For the past 20 years, this has been a much-loved family home, a place where children have grown up, friends have gathered and countless memories have been made. The care and thought that have gone into creating it are evident throughout.

For those with bigger plans, the scale and versatility of the buildings may also lend themselves to a range of future ventures, from boutique accommodation or a creative retreat to hospitality or workshop-based pursuits, subject to the necessary approvals. Whether you're searching for a private island escape, a waterfront home to share with family and friends, or a place where your next chapter can take an entirely different direction, 76 Wisbys Road is somewhere worth discovering. Some places are worth the journey.
