A private island in Tasmania’s south-east has been listed for sale and is expected to fetch between $3 million and $4 million.
Fulham Island sits in the Sloping Island Group, off the coast at Dunalley, about a 10-minute boat ride from the mainland.
The largely undeveloped island spans close to 10 hectares.
Elders Commercial is marketing the property, describing it as “a rare freehold island holding positioned off Tasmania’s tightly held south-east coastline”.
The listing points to the island’s “pristine, largely unimproved landscape” and its proximity to Hobart.
The current owner is international businessman and Fragrance Group boss Koh Wee Meng.
He had planned a low-impact residential development on the island, but is understood to have been too busy with other business interests to pursue it.
The agent expects the sale to attract either a high-net-worth buyer looking for a private retreat close to Hobart or a wildlife conservation group.
Any buyer would need their own boat or helicopter to reach the island.
The island is about 41 kilometres from Hobart Airport and roughly 56 kilometres from the Hobart CBD.
The listing says the surrounding region offers “a balance of privacy, natural amenity and accessibility”.
