Dee Why

"Get in Now!"

Just bought a great 2 bedroom unit here after carefully watching the Northern Beaches market and I couldn't be happier. This place is going to boom! Dee Why has in my opinion one of the better beaches and foreshore of the Northern Beaches, it has really good shopping, cafe's and public spaces. Dee Why has traditionally been seen as the lower class area of the beaches due to formally having housing commission and some undesirables. The new influx of young professionals and young families has transformed this area completely. Gentrification. These are not the main reasons I have invested here. The main reasons I bought here is for the potential. Check out the Dee Why Masterplan and the Northern Beaches transport upgrades as well as the new Northern Beaches hospital. Dee Why Centre is going to be transformed by Waringah council and the approved designs have already won some major awards. Dee Why is going to become a wonderful place to live with new public spaces and retail precinct. The roads to the city are scheduled to be widened and upgraded to ease congestion to the city and to Chatswood and the new Northern Beaches hospital is going to be of world class standard. Dee Why is going to become the heart of the Northern Beaches and the prices are unbelievably affordable but they won't be for long! I highly recommend the older style unit blocks on the 'beach' side of Pittwater Rd. Get in before its too late!

Great for

  • The beach!
  • And the cafes
  • Leafy aspect
  • Beach lifestyle
  • Beautiful surroundings

Are you able to please advise where I can find the plans for the new retail hub you mentioned is going up across from Kingswood station? I've googled it but can't find anything at all. Many thanks

Sure there is a development already sold out on the corner of Great Western Highway and The Northern Road linking onto the hospital precinct. This is due for completion in 2017. The development directly across from Kingswood station has just been released to the public now. PRD are looking after it, here is a link http://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-nsw-kingswood-119785627 . You might need to paste the link in your search box. Read all the way down and it details a lot of the development work for Kingswood in the not too distant future. Good Luck!

Hi Ben; writing this in 2020. Looks like you called it back when you wrote that! Mind if I ask are there any other suburbs you recommend for good capital gain growth/return? I'm trying to research but I'm getting super confused. You seem to know what youre talking about!

Kingswood

"A great place to live or invest in"

I bought into Kingswood 4 years ago and I must say that I have really enjoyed it and the best thing is the people. Sure it has its pockets that are not so great like any area, mainly around the station but that is the same as any area. For the most part Kingswood is a great area with brilliant facilities. A large beautiful university, a large and progressive hospital, plenty of schools, fast trains that express to the city, lots of parks, a great mix of housing, plenty of shops and not far from arterial roads to the city and blue mountains. Kingswood has really flown under the investor radars because this suburb just has so much to offer for families, young people and old people and the prices are still so cheap. Like the previous reviewer, Kingswood is being judged on the riff raff turning up on the train line, but these people are generally not even from Kingswood. These small things will be cleaned up in no time. Oh I nearly forgot, once Badgery's Creek airport goes in, this place is going to boom!! Why? Because Kingswood is the only suburb that is assured to not have a flight path over it due to the university and hospital! Look at the plans for the new luxurious apartments and retail hub across the road from the train station, this place is really going to be the next Blacktown!

Great for

  • Affordable
  • Spacious

Who lives here?

  • Professionals
  • Families with kids
  • Retirees
  • Students
