Description: River Side Roost is a beautifully renovated miner's cottage set in the heart of Derby, home to the world-class Blue Derby mountain bike trails. Overlooking the Ringarooma River, the property enjoys a peaceful outlook while remaining only moments from the town centre and trail network. Located at 39 Main Street, the cottage offers three bedrooms and comfortably accommodates up to six guests. Inside, the home blends character with modern comfort, featuring a wood heater, full kitchen and modern bathroom. Secure lock-up bike storage is ideal for riders, while the rear veranda provides the perfect place to relax and take in the riverside setting after a day on the trails. The property also includes off-street parking and is positioned just a short ride from the trail head, with Derby's cafés, bike shops, floating sauna and local restaurants all within easy walking distance. Currently operating as successful short-term accommodation and available to book via Airbnb, River Side Roost has built a strong accommodation history, with many returning guests drawn to its charm, location and rider-friendly features. The property is being sold fully furnished, allowing new owners to continue operating it as a turn-key accommodation investment or simply enjoy it as a ready-to-use lifestyle retreat. Derby is located approximately 33km from Scottsdale, the main service centre of North East Tasmania, and around 102km from Launceston Airport, providing convenient access to interstate capital cities. As Blue Derby continues to flourish as a global mountain biking destination, the town attracts visitors from across Australia and around the world. Beyond the trails, the region also offers internationally recognised golf courses at Barnbougle and Lost Farm, acclaimed vineyards and cellar doors, and an expanding wellness scene, including a new yoga and wellness centre planned for construction this year. All of this continues to enhance Derby's reputation as one of Tasmania's most exciting lifestyle and tourism destinations.
