Pumphouse Point & Luxurious Retreat at Lake St Clair | Tasmania Part 4 'On The Road' Travel Series 🍎

Tasmania used to predominantly known for its deep thick forest, natural bushland and walking tracks. Now Tasmania also conjures up thoughts of premium wines, new age whiskey and modern architecture. When you head to Lake St Clair in the state’s centre to visit Pumphouse Point, the best of old and new Tasmania combine to create an experience like no other.
Pumphouse point is stepped in history. In the 1930s, the was a vision to build a 5-storey pumphouse that would house enormous water turbines to power the hydropower system - a vision that was realised in 1940. This state of the art facility was to pump water from Lake St Clair into the nearby St Clair Lagoon where it would be stored and fed to the nearby Tarraleah Power Station as required. However, the need to use the facility failed to arise and the site was eventually decommissioned in the early 90s having never been used for its intended purpose. The Tasmanian Government assumed control of the unique site and appointed the Parks & Wildlife Service as caretaker with a view to attracting potential tourism developers. In a final tender for tourism development in 2004, Simon Currant was successful in securing the lease and began his journey toward bringing Pumphouse Point back to life to create a vibrant and unique home away from home.
Traveling across Tasmania featuring the best Design & Experience, this episode we visit Lake St Clair & Pumphouse Point.

This apartment is the most beautiful interior I have ever seen. I played the video thrice already. Black, grey timber and warm lights are all I need in my home. I would appreciate more screentime of this beauty. Also, for future videos more tiny, small and regular houses, not only giant McMansions. Cheers!

[@Montana_Ranch_Rescue]

“The wallaby is there, having the time of his life.” 😂😂🙌🏻

[@brontec9769]

Absolutely loved Tasmania. So special!

[@meri5187]

I came across this channel few days ago and binged the whole thing. It is amazing! The only critique if I may, I would not mind a bit slower tempo and longer videos🤗 These places deserve it.

[@Huntingforgeorge]

New series launching next week is hopefully a bit longer than the last one.

[@TheViewmaster1971]

This place is fabulous! I love how you always seem to find the "beverages" early on!! Great job as usual guys!

[@Huntingforgeorge]

They just present themselves to us... 😂

[@brendanbang6636]

Wow that view by the sea... epic!

[@Huntingforgeorge]

Very special place! Actually inland however, on a lake, not by the ocean.

[@Desertdeco]

[@fashionlovereligion]

I found myself binge watching a lot of your videos recently. I started getting irritated when I noticed there were videos that would pop up in my feed that I didn’t know existed..... then I realized, I could just subscribe 😑

[@Huntingforgeorge]

Thanks for the sub! ⚡

[@renzojose6555]

Same. A new YT rabbit hole.

[@misheeltse3060]

Love it

[@sunnysu4965]

I want to move in! Greetings from Germany

[@Huntingforgeorge]

Us too! ⚡️

[@maryliseandraos]

Cuts on the architecture are short and transitions a bit snappy, the videos feel more about the reactions of the lady to the space rather than the space itself. The architectures chosen are really cool so might as well let viewers enjoy the tour and appreciate the details a bit more. I find myself needing to play the video at slower speeds or pausing many times to take it in. Cool channel nonetheless!

[@emaybaumgard8462]

nice house but the video is way too fast.

[@TheRefinedBudget]

Omg. The shower!! Need

[@Huntingforgeorge]

How good!😍

[@Ihavebeenwatchingyou]

5:48 The Tasmanian in me says 'That's not enough firewood!'

[@Huntingforgeorge]

😂😂😂 Better start chopping!

[@idolinagonzalezcardenas3155]

@HuntingforGeorge do you know how much square meters/ft, the retreat is ? I'd love to have a similar design for my first home, been searching everywhere but didn't find it PS: I love your videos you're so charismatic!

[@Huntingforgeorge]

Sorry not sure on those details. Maybe reach out to the architect for more details. ⚡️

[@NIACOMBS25]

So besutiful, but the insects.

[@nikko8468]

Heavy on the ScoMo "How good is that" terminology. Beautiful video however, was at Pumphouse last July!

[@محمدجاسممحمدوزنانغامالبقره]

Hi

[@محمدجاسممحمدوزنانغامالبقره]

See you worm

[@teacherka1069]

A beautiful house with really boring furniture...The only furniture pieces which I liked are in the children's rooms..The rest of the house looks sterile and boring. The house itsellf, its layout, the number of rooms, the windows-great..The floors so belong to previous century..

[@ruperezandreahorrifylin435]

I just don’t like the sound of her..... a bit irritating sorry.
