The suburb sits on the Brooker Highway (National Route 1) and is served by the Number 28 Metro Tasmania bus, giving easy links to Hobart and surrounding suburbs. Housing reflects a mix of historic and mid‑century designs, from the early 1800s Montrose House heritage property to the brick homes built by the Hobart Savings Bank in the late 1940s, many featuring well‑tended gardens and scenic views. Proximity to Glenorchy’s commercial and public services rounds out a lifestyle that blends waterfront recreation with convenient urban access.
