You could soak up the idyllic views from the sundeck of your own boatshed at New Town in Tasmania, which could be Australia’s best home office.

The property at 1A Boatshed Cornelian Bay is for recreational use only, meaning you’ll have to pack up and head home by night.

Agents Donna Paton and Cloe Millhouse of Fall Real Estate Hobart are seeking offers of over $395,000 for the renovated 1937-built boatshed.

Although you can’t stay overnight, you can make use of the daytime at the boatshed.
