A visit to No.1 Ryeland Ct will not soon be forgotten.
As the electronic gate slides back and you set foot on the site for the first time, two things happen: the picture-perfect, elevated view of the water towards the Lindisfarne Sailing Club catches your eye; and then you are greeted by a vaulted modern marvel and its impressive facade.
The glorious architecture and construction promises much as you stand at the gate, but once you venture beyond the front door it quickly becomes clear that this is a property that delivers a wow factor at every turn.

Ray White Hobart agent Brad Stephens said it is a property that is “impressive in every way”.
“It is impressive in scale, in position and in level of finish,” he said.
“The replacement cost for something like this, any builder in Hobart would say this house would be impossible to rebuild.
“For anyone looking for an incredible family home that is robust and beautiful, this property offers a rare opportunity.
“It’s really rare because there aren’t many houses like this. For a family home, this would be hard to beat.”

Arranged over two expansive levels, the design of the house takes advantage of the northern aspect and uninterrupted views of the River Derwent, Kunanyi/Mt Wellington and beyond.
Mr Stephens said while Linardi-designed homes are more common on the western side of the river, there are fewer on Hobart’s east coast.
“There aren’t many comparable houses on the East Coast,” he said.
“And while the price is at the high end of our market, for a buyer coming off the interstate, a home like this represents good value for money,” he said.
“Although it has only been on the market for a few days, we have already had several genuine inquiries.”

Perhaps the biggest surprise of this modern home is also on the lower level: a long wall of condemned bricks.
Mr Stephens said the almost 15 meter long feature wall was made with salvaged convict bricks, laid in classic English bond style.
“It is a striking nod to Hobart’s heritage and complements the home’s contemporary palette and high-quality finishes,” he said.
“You can see the broad arrows and fingerprints of the convict.”
Zoned climate control and a Norseman wood-burning stove provide year-round comfort. Practicality meets luxury, with a substantial garage and workshop that can accommodate several vehicles, boats or caravans, together with a covered carport on entry.
This landmark home sits on a private 997 sqm lot and represents one of the Eastern Shore’s most exceptional offerings, balancing architectural brilliance, grand proportions and an unparalleled lifestyle in a prime bayside location.
No.1 Ryeland Ct, Rose Bay is for sale by Ray White Hobart in partnership with JWC Property Group. The price is ‘Offer more than $3 million’.
