Fancy a slice of Tasmania near Hobart? Want to build a subdivision or get into the tourism business? Build a mountain bike or horse riding facility and/or an eco-future resort?
Our Granton land comprising >80 ha is for sale. There is potential for housing, a tourism venture near the top of Snake Mount and a sustainability resort and mountain bike training and horse riding establishment and track is suggested. When making roads with excess cut there is likely to be a market soon for stone during the construction of the new Bridgewater bridge.
The land is zoned rural and rural residential and boasts some of the best views in the northern suburbs, is only ten to fifteen minutes from Glenorchy, and when Gillies road connects will be even closer. It is situated along and towards the end of Granton Heights Road on the northern side of Blacksnake Lane about 1.5 Km from the Brooker Highway which comes all the way from central Hobart.
You could be buying some of the last land that will be available as larger allotments close to Glenorchy or Hobart.

Subdivision and Quarry Stone
The property has some excellent stone on it and we were going to quarry and sell it to the contractors who take on rebuilding the Bridgewater bridge which is close by. As we built roads we would design them with excess cut for this purpose.
Subdividing in this way would substantially increase profit. The Bridgwater bridge reconstruction project has been an election promise for some time!
