Housing woes have long been the thorn in Sydney’s side. Sure, we’ve got great beaches, bars and restaurants, but with median house prices sitting at roughly $1.76 million, the long-term habitability is often pulled into question by many residents.
Moving regionally is on the rise, with Commonwealth Bank’s latest data showing a continued upward trend with a net migration to regions up 11.8 per cent.
One stunning coastal town that has sparked the interest of many looking to relocate from the city is Nambucca Heads, located around five hours north of Sydney and around 30 minutes south of Coffs Harbour.
There’s a lot to love about Nambucca Heads, and we’re just going to state the brass tax of it all which is – ding, ding, ding – affordable housing. PropTrack data on realestate.com.au shows the median price of house in Nambucca Heads is $728,000 – yep, you read that correctly. Landing a coastal property for under $1 million is quite frankly, a steal.
On top of that, Nambucca Heads provides all the trimmings of an idyllic coastal town, brimming with beautiful beaches including Shelley Beach, sand dunes, forest landscape and a stunning shoreline to explore.
Of course, when you start to see an influx of movers arrive from the city, the hospitality scene in a town starts to boom and we’ve been told that Matilda’s – a sun-spalshed restaurant and bar – is the place to be.
As more people set up in Nambucca Heads, we can’t wait to see this coastal town evolve.
