Nestled at the end of quiet Fleming Drive, this generous half-acre (2,034 m²) parcel presents a rare opportunity to secure your own highland escape in the heart of Tasmania’s trout fishing country.
Surrounded by bushland and a close-knit mix of permanent homes and weekenders, 42 Fleming Drive is the ideal base for fishing, bushwalking, or simply enjoying the serenity of Tasmania’s Central Highlands.
Adding a unique touch to the property is a rare piece of Tasmanian working heritage — an original PWD/DMR Workmen’s ‘Humpy’. Used throughout the 1950s to early 1990s by road maintenance crews, these mobile accommodation huts were towed from site to site, enabling workers to live on-location while completing road projects across the state.
The 'Humpy' is offered ‘as is, where is’, and comes complete with:
*Two single beds and a hammock.
*Utensil storage cupboard.
*Freestanding potbelly stove.
*Small connected water tank.
Positioned on a cleared site with a peaceful bushland backdrop, the 'Humpy' enhances the nostalgic appeal of the property, while still leaving plenty of room for future development.
Services including overhead power and Telstra phone lines are available at the boundary, ready to support any new build or improvement (STCA). The property is zoned Low Density Residential, with all development subject to approval from the Central Highlands Council under the Interim Planning Scheme.
Located just over 1km from the Central Highlands Lodge, and a similar distance to the Swan Bay boat ramp on Great Lake, this property is ideally situated for weekend getaways or a permanent highland base.
Miena is the heart of Tasmania’s Central Highlands and a mecca for world-class trout fishing. Great Lake, whose name originates from the Aboriginal word for “lagoon-like,” was expanded in 1911 to support hydro-electric development and remains one of Tasmania’s most iconic freshwater lakes.
The region is home to some of Australia’s best inland fishing waters, including Arthurs Lake, Penstock Lagoon, and Little Pine Lagoon, attracting anglers and nature lovers from across the country.
With the largest permanent population in the Highlands, Miena offers community connection, scenic beauty, and a slower pace of life — all less than one hour and half away from Hobart or Launceston.
