The Neighborhood
Tasmania is a wilderness paradise enjoying fresh water, clean air and beautiful food. It is a unique part of Australia and a MUST SEE!!
We live 2 kilometres (1.24 miles) from the centre of beautiful Hobart in a suburb called Sandy Bay. It has excellent shopping, banking and medical facilities all within walking distance of our home. It is a very safe area for families and couples.
Hobart is a harbour city and the capital of Tasmania and sits on the Derwent River. There are beautiful walks around the harbour and lots of cafes and restaurants where you can sit and have a relaxing drink. We are very close (2 minute drive) to the heritage suburb of Battery Point where you will find tiny cottages along with some mansions. We are a five minute walk to Wrest Point Casino and the University of Tasmania. It’s an easy drive from our home to the ferry that will take you to Bruny Island, the Huon area, Richmond, Mount Wellington, National Park, Hastings Caves and Port Arthur and many other places.
