Sassafras, TAS 7307
Overview
Sassafras is a small rural locality split between the Latrobe and Meander Valley councils in Tasmania’s Launceston and North‑west regions. Situated about 20 km inland from Devonport, the community of 347 residents (2016 Census) sits beside the Mersey River with the Bass Highway threading through its centre, offering easy access to nearby towns.
The area retains a strong agricultural feel, anchored by the historic Skelbrook farm that still produces potatoes, poppies and other crops. Local landmarks such as the “Big Spud” sculpture, Sassafras Baptist Church and Nichols Poultry sit alongside four minor routes – C153, C704, C706 and C713 – linking the suburb to Railton, Harford and Port Sorell, and together with the Bass Highway they support a mix of farm‑set homes and modest residences for a tranquil yet well‑connected lifestyle.
Region type mix: Regional 100%.
