The chance to snap up Tasmania’s most popular home of the past week has already vanished.

Last sold in the 1990s, No.2 Austins Ferry Rd, Austins Ferry was listed for sale by Roberts Real Estate at “Offers over $495,000”.

The listing on realestate.com.au quickly shot to Tassie’s No.1 spot on the most-viewed charts, with about 5000 property hunters clicking for a look.

Property representative Tony Bacic confirmed that the three-bedroom home had an “extremely busy” launch, with 208 inquiries.

“It attracted multiple offers,” he said, “and it is now under offer”.

“The property attracted a mixture of buyers, including investors, developers, renovators, first home buyers and interstate-based buyers.

“We had 45 groups through the open home.

“Austins Ferry offers buyers private and public schools, a mix of new and old homes, transport, shopping services, yacht club, and parklands.”
