Reviews of Riverside, TAS
"Family Friendly!!"
I have lived in Riverside almost 20 years and love the Tamar River views and the close proximity to the city centre, whilst locally we have Riverside Shopping Centre for most of our needs.
As a runner, I love that there are great running tracks and parks along the river and plenty of areas for kids and families to enjoy.
It's an area with excellent private and public schools, so popular with families.

"Tamar River Views"
Set up overlooking the Tamar River and Launceston CBD, Riverside is exactly that, beside the river with access to rowing clubs, parks and schools. Good shopping centre and more on offer. Expanding to the North West with semi-rural allotmens offered for sale. Quick access the West Tamar wine region and beaches beyond.

"Great Location!"
Riverside is located 5-10 minutes from Launceston atop the hillside overlooking the Tamar River. With the Riverside Shopping Complex central to the suburb and 4 schools in the area, this suburb is suitable for people from all walks of life. Riverside has a mixture of character homes and new builds and always seems to be opening new sub-divisions with land available for purchase. Riverside is a great choice whether a owner occupier, tenant or investor!

Riverside is a very humble and neighbourly community with so much to offer. This suburb is very convenient and safe, with supermarkets, schools, cafes and only a short 5 minute drive from the city what more could you want?

"Lovely suburb, great views and facilities"
I love Riverside as a resident and an investor. Good commute time to the city (be aware of school zones however) and great facilities including shopping, schools and friendly walking/responsible pet owners.

Riverside is a fantastic suburb for everyone and located only minutes from the CBD, schools, shops and everyday necessities. Located in the West Tamar spreading from the flat all the way up the hill, Riverside has fantastic views of the mountains and Tamar River. Riverside has a diverse selection of homes and land sizes, from modern to character in all price ranges. There is a home to suit everyone here.
