Relbia is having a moment.
Insitu Property director Kristi Seymour has seen this first-hand, with a superb home in this semirural Launceston suburb tipping the sale scales more than any other Tasmanian property this year.
No.310 Glenwood Rd — described as an unparalleled architectural achievement — hit the market seeking in excess of $4m and has been sold for an undisclosed price.
Miss Seymour said the timeless, luxurious, sophisticated property had been purchased by Tasmanians.
She said the 4.19ha property boasts an exquisite Ozone pool, surrounded by established gardens.
“With parklike grounds established over decades, the property has an unmatched sense of calm; it is a sanctuary,” she said.
“This is perfectly balanced by the home’s signature clean lines, soaring ceilings and large windows that invite natural light to dance throughout the spaces.”

While this extraordinary property — also featuring a full-size tennis court, home gym, oversized garaging, automated watering and more — sounds like a rare find, there must be something in the water in Relbia. Perhaps unexpectedly, Mrs Seymour has not one, but two more multimillion listings in the same suburb right now — No.372 Glenwood Rd and No.175 Glenwood Rd.
Miss Seymour said both properties had hit the ground running with thousands of views online and inspections being booked left and right.
“There has certainly been local interest, but also people are making plans to fly in from interstate to inspect these superb properties,” she said.
“They are attracting different demographics. One has been primarily local families, while the other has been people with an interest in the vines. Interestingly, the value of Tasmanian fruit has increased substantially this season.”

Miss Seymour said No.372 was built as a forever home. ”It was lovingly designed and expertly crafted, and the owners are only selling due to work opportunities pulling them away from Relbia,” she said.
“Then No.175 — the oldest vineyard in the region — this property appeals to buyers looking for a vineyard setting.
“Locally, it is still known as Glenbothy Estate. Today, it is a fantastic family-sized home that offers privacy, luxury and enviable views of the vines.”

Down the road at No.175, buyers will find an expansive five-bedroom, five-bathroom home set on 7.97ha.
Priced at “Offers over $3.75m”, this home was designed by Cumulus Studio, incorporating what was once the property’s original cellar door.
Fantastic as a luxury home, but with endless opportunities for a possible business venture incorporating functions & events, the detached games room/studio is a great space for a variety of uses, be it a commercial kitchen, dining room or otherwise.
The stunning living zone faces east and offers spectacular views over the vines, free-flowing out to expanses of paving and the most romantic wood-fired soaking tub.
Producing the grapes for many award-winning wines, the estate has 5.5ha under vines, with rows upon rows of picturesque vines framed by the mountains beyond.
Water is in abundance secured by a water right from the North Esk River.
