Overview

Kingston sits 12 km south of Hobart, acting as the gateway to the D’Entrecasteaux Channel and Derwent River. With a 2021 estimate of 13,473 residents in the Kingston‑Huntingfield area, it is one of Tasmania’s fastest‑growing towns, offering a blend of suburban estates such as Blackmans Bay and Kingston Beach, and the neighbourhood of Firthside. Mild summers and cool winters support an active outdoor lifestyle.

Residents enjoy two major retail hubs, Kingston Town Shopping Centre and Channel Court, and the newer Kingston Plaza on the former Coles site. Educational options include public Kingston High and Primary Schools and private Christian schools such as Calvin Christian School and Southern Christian College. Proximity to the Huon Highway and the Kingston Interchange provides quick links to Hobart, while nearby parks, the Kingborough Sports Centre and the Twin Ovals cater to recreation. The mix of housing, from established estates to newer developments, meets the needs of families and retirees alike.
