Question 1

Is Oyster Cove a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Oyster Cove sits on the sheltered shoreline of the D'Entrecasteaux Channel near Kettering and has a low-density, rural-residential feel. Properties range from waterfront blocks and larger lots with modest timber cottages to newer homes, and the locality draws families, retirees and people keeping a holiday base on the water. Recreational boating, fishing and shoreline walks are part of everyday life, and everyday shops and the ferry to Bruny Island are a short drive along the Channel Highway.

It is a small community of 330 people with a median age of 45 and a typical household income of $1,515 a week. Families make up the bulk of the population and homes are overwhelmingly owner-occupied (94.8%), renters 5.2%. There has also been local infrastructure work on a wastewater link serving the ferry terminal area and the Oyster Cove Inn site. Whether that suits you comes down to what you're looking for in a waterside, low-density suburb.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Oyster Cove?

Accepted Answer

Oyster Cove (TAS 7150) hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable price or rent figures for houses or units. Without current price or rent data, it isn't possible to describe how expensive it is to live in Oyster Cove compared with local incomes recorded at the most recent Census.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.
