Give yourself this home where the kangaroos roam…

… on an island off Tasmania’s northwest coast

Set on a coastal headland in Loorana, King’s Island, this timber-clad beach house addresses the Great Southern Ocean with a low, rectilinear profile embedded in native coastal vegetation.

The house is organised along a remote ocean-facing edge, where floor-to-ceiling glazing frames horizon and weather. Sliding doors open onto a broad timber deck that extends the living spaces outward, creating a continuous threshold between the interior and the dunes. Outdoor elements — including a freestanding sauna, a sunken timber hot tub and a mosaic-tiled shower — are integrated into the deck. A private footpath descends directly to the beach below.

Internally, the plan centres on an open living zone anchored by a rotating fireplace, with a walk-in pantry adjoining the kitchen. Four bedrooms are configured to accommodate flexible occupation, and the house has operated as a short-term holiday residence. Rainwater collection, water recycling systems and double glazing form part of the environmental infrastructure, alongside an ongoing native regeneration programme across the site.

The property lies approximately five minutes from King Island Airport, for flights to Hobart or Melbourne. It’s on the market with Kay & Burton with a price guide of $2,450,000 – $2,650,000.
