Sea-changer and downsizer trend continues on NSW South Coast as Ridgewaters Kiama sales speed up
There's no slowing down of the sea-changer trend across New South Wales, with Sydneysiders still looking south for holiday homes they're spending more time at.
The Sydney-based developer St Trinity Group have seen high demand for Ridgewaters Kiama, their $60 million residential community on the South Coast, around two hours south of Sydney.
It's the size of the apartments on offer at Ridgewaters which has attracted a swell of buyers, says St Trinity Group Managing Director Nicholas El-Khoury.
“Ridgewaters Kiama is the only development on the South Coast offering exclusively three-bedroom apartments, some with studies, designed specifically to cater to this unprecedented demand for flexible sea-change, owner-occupier residences accommodating a range of changing needs,” El-Khoury said.
The apartments so far have been popular with downsizers and sea-changers, as well as industry professionals wanting to work remotely.
“We’ve received interest from a range of buyers – some of them coming from postcodes closer to Sydney’s CBD as well some already from coastal areas like Sutherland Shire who want to remain by the sea, but for a lesser price tag," El-Khoury added.
“All of them clearly recognise the value of seaside havens such as Kiama as offering both the convenience of being close to major metropolitan areas and facilities with the desirable lifestyle of smaller coastal communities.”
Three-bedroom apartments start from $945,000 and all come with their own parking.
