About this property
A Birds Eye View
Sitting on top of Mt Canopus, in front of the old Tas University Telescope is A Birds Eye View, enjoying the view of the southern skies at night and the expanse views of central Tasmania during the day.
The space
a bird’s eye view
Perched 260 metres above sea level, atop of Mt Canopus on approx. 2.098 or 5 acres a bird’s eye view has stunning views across Cambridge, Pittwater and beyond. The native animals and huge array of birdlife add magic to this unique and private piece of paradise.
a bird’s eye view is orientated to provide uninterrupted views. The 260 degree view encompasses Mt Wellington to the west, the Meehan Mountain Ranges north – west, Cambridge north-east, Pittwater and the Coal River Valley north .
The studio is ideally suited to a couple, but can accommodate extra guests upon request. Additional single mattress(es) can be supplied if required.
Mt Canopus is only 15 mins away from the CBD, 10 mins to a major shopping precinct and 10 mins to Hobart International Airport.
a bird’s eye view is constructed of rammed earth naturally complimenting the rocky outcrops and slopping natural earth walls of the block. Floor to ceiling double glazed windows capture the sun all day all year round and the wedge shaped roof-line allows for maximum light and view. The polished concrete floors enhance the efficient thermal qualities of the studio. The windows are fitted with remote control blinds. The lounge area and bedroom is carpeted.
The modern kitchen is well – equipped with all appliances and cooking utensils for meal preparation including microwave, dishwasher, gas hot plates and electric oven. The kitchen boasts a Nespresso coffee machine, tea making facilities with a selection of coffee pods and teas.

The sitting room has a cosy free-standing wood fire with comfy arm chairs to read, relax and enjoy the views. The studio is fitted with a Daikin reverse cycle .
The master bedroom has quality linen, wardrobe space and a wall-mounted TV. Through to the bathroom with walk in shower, toilet, front-loader washer and sink. Shampoo, conditioner, dryer, washing powder, lotions and hand wash supplied. Inside airer and outside washing line provided.
