About this property
Bushmere | Bay of Fires Escape
Perched above the pristine waters of Skeleton Bay, Bushmere offers an escape that effortlessly blends comfort, style, and the natural beauty of Tasmania’s East Coast. This carefully updated home captures sweeping ocean views while providing the privacy and calm that Binalong Bay is renowned for.
The home’s thoughtful renovation strikes a balance between function and understated luxury. At its heart is a brand-new, fully equipped kitchen complete with European appliances and a generous 90cm oven, ideal for preparing fresh local seafood or simple family meals. The open-plan living space invites relaxation with its wood heater, heat transfer system and expansive smart TV, ensuring comfort no matter the season.
Bushmere accommodates up to six guests across three serene bedrooms. The master suite enjoys panoramic ocean vistas, while the second queen bedroom also offers captivating water views. The third bedroom, with its twin singles and outlook to the surrounding bushland, is perfectly suited to children or accompanying guests.
Outdoor living is at the core of the experience. A large mod wood deck provides the perfect setting for morning coffee or long afternoon lunches as the ever-changing light plays across the bay. The generous backyard offers space for children to roam, while an outdoor gazebo and firepit area invite relaxed evenings beneath a canopy of stars. With ample off-street parking, guests can easily bring their boat or recreational gear to make the most of the region’s abundant outdoor pursuits.
Positioned on a quiet street, with the bush a neighbour, Bushmere enjoys one of the Bay of Fires best addresses. Guests are only moments from the famed Bay of Fires beaches, crystal-clear waters perfect for kayaking and snorkelling, and endless coastal walking tracks. The township of St Helens, with its boutique shops, cafes, and dining, is a short drive away, providing everything you need while maintaining the peace and seclusion of your coastal retreat.
Whether you are seeking a romantic escape, a family holiday, or a place to pause and reconnect with nature, Bushmere offers a sanctuary in one of Tasmania’s most spectacular locations.
