The property is a unit located at 6/9 Netherby Road in Currie, Tasmania. It offers the convenience of low‑maintenance living within the town centre.
Currie is served by Route B25, which runs north as Main Street and east as Grassy Road, providing road access to the rest of King Island. The nearby King Island Airport handles medium‑sized turboprop aircraft for regional travel.
Currie enjoys a very mild oceanic climate bordering on Mediterranean, with dry summers and rare winter frosts. The area is often windy, averaging about 22 km/h, and receives frequent light rain throughout the year.
Currie was renamed after Archibald Currie, a Melbourne shipowner who salvaged the wreck of the full‑rigged ship Netherby near the harbour in 1866. The town’s harbour later supported salvage operations for several other shipwrecks in the 19th century.
Within a short walk you’ll find Halfmoon Bay and Netherby Bay, as well as beaches like Little Beach and Big Beach. The nearby Currie Lighthouse, Gull Rock, and Huxley Hill Wind Farm add scenic and recreational interest.
Currie is a significant centre for the fishing industry, especially rock lobster harvesting, thanks to its natural harbour. Agriculture, primarily beef and dairy grazing, also plays an important role in the local economy.
