Rosny, TAS 7018

I wouldn't live here anymore as there is suburbs nearby that will outperform, but it is good for all my needs. Definitely a better environment than on the other side of the bridge

I'm so glad we chose Rosny when we moved from Melbourne to Hobart in 2022. It's six minutes easy drive to Hobart city centre, two minutes drive to Tasmania's largest shopping centre (Eastlands) and walking distance along waterfront tracks to Bellerive and Lindisfarne villages for great coffee and restaurants. The school in the neighbourhood is Montagu Bay Primary, one of the best rated schools in Hobart. Within Ronsy there are many parks and nature reserves to choose from within a five minute walk from our house. The views around Rosny of the River Derwent, Tasman Bridge, Hobart city and Bruny Island are spectacular. Our neighbours and the people we pass walking around have always been polite and friendly. We don't ever see ourselves leaving!

Most of the houses in Rosny were built in the early 1960s. Almost all of the blocks have a covenant from the original subdivision meaning only one house can be built on each lot and no business of any kind can be conducted on the land. This means the houses will always be large family homes for professionals, rather than the suburb transitioning to higher density and more affordable units like neighbouring suburbs. The views in some parts of the suburb are amazing, particularly at the higher end of Kellatie Road and Leura Street.

Rosny really surprised me. It has magnificent views. Rosny Hill has some lovely walks along with the glorious Clarence foreshore walk. Mostly 1960s-1970s architecture which mean the blocks of land are larger than average.
Despite being so close to the Hobart CBD, the suburb is so quiet.
I have lived here for a while and and really glad that I took the opportunity to live here when I could.

To be honest I hadn't stepped foot into Rosny until recently. It has glorious views all over Hobart CBD, the river and the bridge. So peaceful and yet only 7 min drive to the city.
Though it doesn't have the best public transport access.
Plenty of green space and and Clarence foreshore trail is excellent.
Very happy that I bought here.

We recently moved to Rosny and everyone we talk to says "welcome to Hobart's hidden gem".
Friendly, quiet and convenient are just a few word's that come to mind when trying to sum up Rosny.
It has one of the best primary school's in Hobart! You can walk to Eastlands and Bellerive shopping centre's. Quick and easy drive (or walk) to get into the city. Not to mention has an abundance of sporting facilities such as indoor swimming centre, tennis centre, cricket nets and ovals.
Rosny is mostly overlooked and undervalued! We love it here.

An un-friendly, commuter suburb, with no community spirit, the sewage treatment plant stinks when on cyclepath, the footpaths are either non-existent or lack maintenance.It would be a great suburb for people who drive everywhere and don't like people. I lived in Hobart and I felt safe on the streets and could walk to the shops and talk to neighbours, Rosny is the opposite, you have to drive everywhere no shops or cafes, that is why I left and moved back to civilisation.
