Browse property in East Derwent Highway

East Derwent Highway forms the main spine of the street, providing a direct link from Risdon Vale to Hobart’s CBD, the Bowen Bridge into Glenorchy and, via Grasstree Hill Road, onward to the historic town of Richmond. Metro Tasmania buses also run along the corridor, connecting residents to central terminals in Hobart, Rosny Park, Glenorchy and Bridgewater.

The residential streetscape is characterised by the modest 1960s subdivision that grew south of Gardenia Road and around Waratah Road, with housing largely built at the same time as the 1960‑era Risdon Vale Primary School. Nearby amenities include the primary school itself, the volunteer fire brigade on Sugarloaf Road, and easy access to the walking track around Risdon Brook Park and Dam, which offers views of Mount Wellington.
