Where Architecture and Nature Live as One
Set within an exquisite 50-acre landscape just 20 minutes from the heart of Hobart, this architecturally designed residence is more than a home it’s a sanctuary. Perfectly private and framed by the rolling hills of Allens Rivulet, it’s a place where contemporary luxury and natural beauty exist in effortless balance.
Every line of this remarkable home has been considered from the soaring windows that capture light and sky, to the sweeping curve of the façade that embraces panoramic valley views to Sleeping Beauty and Mount Wellington. The design draws the outdoors in, celebrating its peaceful rural setting while offering a refined and deeply comfortable lifestyle.
Inside, the palette is calm and timeless — warm timber tones, clean architectural angles and expansive double glazing that connects each space to the surrounding landscape. The heart of the home is the open-plan living, dining and kitchen domain: light-filled, elegant and made for entertaining. The chef’s kitchen is fitted with quality appliances, stone benchtops and a generous walk-in pantry, while the adjoining dining area flows seamlessly to the terrace — the ideal spot for evening gatherings under a wash of sunset light.
An elegant hallway creates a beautiful transition between the social and private wings of the home, its high windows framing glimpses of the sky and forest canopy. The four bedrooms are each generously proportioned, offering peaceful outlooks and thoughtful separation for family living. The master suite delivers a true retreat experience — complete with a walk-in robe, a stunning ensuite and a private garden aspect that invites morning light and serenity. The remaining three bedrooms each include built-in wardrobes and generous dimensions, ideal for family, guests or a flexible lifestyle. A dedicated study adjoins the lounge — perfect for those who work from home — while a spacious family laundry with direct access to the rear garden enhances the home’s practicality and everyday flow.
Beyond the home, every element of the property has been curated with purpose. Landscaped gardens blend seamlessly with native bushland, a reflection of sustainable living in its most elegant form. Meandering paths lead to a serene dam — the perfect spot to unwind in the shade of the eucalypts, hammock swaying gently between the trees. A series of fenced paddocks, orchard and productive vegetable gardens speak to a life connected to the land, while extensive rainwater storage, solar power and double-glazed construction of the home deliver true energy efficiency.
A separate garage and workshop provide ample space for vehicles, hobbies or future creative pursuits and the entire property is secured behind an electric gated entrance that sets the tone for the privacy within.
Fossil Hill is an address that transcends lifestyle — it’s an experience of peace, beauty and exceptional design. For those seeking a home that feels far removed from the everyday yet is just a short drive from Hobart’s bustle, this extraordinary retreat is unmatched.
