THE SCENTED ROSE is an idyllic retreat for those who appreciate the finer things in life, and are looking for a place of perfect quiet, to relax and unwind. There are bay windows to enjoy the views, beautiful timber dado panelling and high ceilings of Art Nouveau pressed metal.

From the verandahs there are glorious views westward across the river to the Hartz Mountains. For wine buffs, Glaziers Bay vineyards produce some of Tasmania's finest pinots. There’s Tasmania’s fabulous World Heritage Wilderness Area at your doorstep, including the remarkable Tahune Air Walk.

The Edwardian house is sited on a low knoll jutting into the wide expanses of the Huon River at Glaziers Bay. Set in 3 acres, the garden includes one of the finest borders of David Austin roses to be seen in Australia, and extensive topiary hedges classified by the National Trust.

At times the landscape is reflected with amazing clarity on the mirror calm waters, for which Glaziers Bay is renowned.
