Suburb profile
Lake Sorell is a welcoming smaller community in Central Highlands (Tas.), with a settled community character. Distance from the capital is noticeable, but the trade-off is space, calm and a community that knows its neighbours. Long-term locals and family households define much of the community, with a community of people who commute and work locally.
Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town. The market sits in a sensible middle ground: not cheap, but fair value for the area.
The streetscape feels settled and established, with older homes giving the area a familiar, lived-in look.
