Question 1

Is Windermere a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Windermere sits on the banks of the Tamar River a short drive from Launceston and has a quiet, rural-residential feel. Tree-lined streets, riverfront blocks and pockets of bushland shape a waterside lifestyle with walking and fishing spots close by; housing ranges from older weatherboard cottages and brick homes to newer houses on larger lots and small hobby farms. Everyday shops and services are easily reached in neighbouring centres, and the suburb is popular with families, retirees and people seeking more space while staying near the city.

It is a very small community of 252 people, with a median age of 57 and a typical household income of $1,625 a week. Most homes are owner-occupied and couple households without children are the largest family type. Local amenity includes Windermere Jetty Reserve with a boat ramp, pontoon, parking, seating and toilets, and there has been recent public-asset work including a new 300kL concrete reservoir and council-funded intersection improvements.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Windermere?

Accepted Answer

Windermere hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable house or unit prices and rents. Without current price or rent figures, it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live in Windermere compared with typical local household incomes as 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.

Question 3

There haven't been enough recent property sales in Windermere to publish reliable figures on how house and unit values and rents have moved over the past year. Without those figures, there isn't a clear picture of how the suburb has performed as an investment over the 12-month period.
