People choose to move to Tasmania for various reasons. This small state can offer something extraordinary to everyone including beautiful surroundings, amazing food and wine, and that the temperatures stay mild during the summer making it a perfect place to spend this usually unbearable season for many Australians. The truth is, whoever comes for a visit, wishes to stay longer or forever.
Alongside already attractive property, the Tasmanian government offers the First Home Owner Grant for eligible Australian citizens. Plus you will have the opportunity to experience the relaxed lifestyle that Tassie is famous for. No traffic jams and wasted commuting hours (since the majority of the people are lucky to live close to their workplaces). The best thing is that you can live in the semi-rural area and still be just a few kilometres away from Devonport, Launceston, or Hobart.
No matter if you are looking to invest or buy, Tasmanian
properties have everything you need, and all you have to do is to pick a
location you like. Therefore, we created a list of the most attractive and
convenient places in Tasmania where you can build your first home.
Devonport – Home to the best views of Tasmania
Besides being a jumping-off spot to explore Cradle Mountain which is one of the most beautiful Tasmanian localities, Devonport itself has amazing natural surroundings. No matter if you love the relaxed beach or river walks or something more exciting like kayaking or sailing, you will be able to do all of it in the city of Devonport.
You will be encircled by the beauty – that’s a fact, but as in any other city, you will be able to find some business opportunities too. Depending on what your call and vocation are, Devonport is a place of art and history, and home to The Bass Strait Maritime Center and the ever-growing Central Business District. Nonetheless, the Devonport area has rich red soils that are perfect for vegetable, cereals, oil poppies and other crops production.
With 8 primary, 3 secondary and 2 senior secondary schools, Devonport is a great place to raise children. Just around 30 miles West, there is a University of Tasmania in Burnie where the higher education journey can be easily continued.
Even though Tasmania may seem over isolated for some, from the Devonport Airport you can pick one of four flights to Melbourne or do the same if you prefer a ferry. If you wish to stay and build your new life and home in this city, don’t hesitate to turn to Platinum Pro – Devonport’s most trusted and reputable construction company.
