441 Tinderbox Road

Tinderbox Farm and Vineyard Estate is a significant Tasmanian holding of scale, productivity and long-term potential. Spanning approximately 317.5 hectares with over 4 kilometres of high water mark frontage, the property combines rolling pastures, a productive cool-climate vineyard and expansive views across the D'Entrecasteaux Channel to Bruny Island. Located just 25 minutes south of Hobart, the estate offers a rare balance of scale, privacy and coastal outlook. Generationally held and recognised for premium table wine production, it presents a considered blend of agricultural capability and lifestyle appeal. The 2-hectare vineyard, established in 1993 with plantings of Pinot Noir, Riesling and Chardonnay, sits on basalt and dolerite derived soils. A maritime influenced climate moderates temperature and reduces frost risk, supporting consistent yields and fruit quality. The broader holding supports a mixed farming system, comprising improved and native pastures and bushland, which is currently utilised for beef cattle grazing. The heritage-listed homestead is a late Victorian weatherboard residence set on sandstone foundations, offering three bedrooms, one bathroom and a flexible dining room or fourth bedroom. Period features include a wide hallway, stained glass, high ceilings and original timber floors. The surrounding grounds include an established olive grove, fruit trees and mature macrocarpa pines, with outlooks across the vineyard and Tinderbox Marine Reserve. A second residence, converted from an original painted brick Georgian stable, provides two-storey accommodation with two bedrooms and one bathroom. Retaining original features including stone flooring, timber detailing and integrated original fixtures, the building offers potential for dual family living, guest accommodation, a cellar door or other tourism use. Supporting infrastructure includes a timber shearing shed, stockyards, a cool store and multiple farm buildings. Three substantial irrigation dams and associated infrastructure provide reliable water security for both irrigation and livestock. The landscape is ecologically rich, with native eucalypt stands, abundant wildlife and regular sightings of wedge-tailed eagles. Tinderbox Estate also benefits from low light pollution, offering clear night skies and views of the Aurora Australis. It is known for the "Tinderbox Tree," made famous by aurora photographers. The property is zoned Rural Resource and Environmental Living under the Tasmanian Interim Planning Scheme. An approved permit is in place for a 12-lot subdivision (subject to final council approval), with further scope for development, tourism or conservation. A coastal holding of this scale, versatility and proximity to Hobart is rarely offered.
