About this property
Positioned just 150 metres from the sand in one of the Gold Coast's most tightly held beachside suburbs, this is an opportunity that savvy buyers simply can't afford to miss. Whether you're searching for your first home, a coastal weekender or a high-performing investment, this affordable fully furnished ground floor apartment places you right in the heart of the vibrant Nobbys Beach lifestyle. Set within the popular 'Beaches on Wave' complex, comprising just 36 apartments on a generous 2,023m² parcel of blue-chip land, this residence offers an exceptional combination of lifestyle, convenience and future growth. With patrolled beaches at one end of the street and endless cafés, restaurants and entertainment at the other, this is coastal living at its absolute best. Inside, the functional open plan layout has been designed for easy living. The tiled living and dining area flows effortlessly onto an east-facing covered balcony, creating the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee after a swim. At the rear, the spacious bedroom opens onto its own private tiled terrace, capturing the warm afternoon sunshine and providing a peaceful retreat. Move straight in and enjoy everything this incredible location has to offer, or continue operating as a successful holiday rental as the unit comes fully furnished. Offered with vacant possession available, the flexibility is yours-live in, lease out or simply lock up and leave whenever the beach calls. Lifestyle is what truly sets this property apart. Leave the car securely parked in the basement and walk everywhere. Start your mornings on the beach, enjoy brunch at The Oxley, meet friends for dinner at Baby Mamasan or Lars Bar & Grill, and finish the day watching the sunset over one of the Gold Coast's most sought-after coastal communities. Connectivity has never been better, with the new light rail station only a three-minute walk away. Travel effortlessly south to Burleigh Heads or north through Broadbeach, Surfers Paradise and Helensvale, where you can connect directly to Brisbane via the heavy rail network. This outstanding transport link only adds to the long-term appeal of this blue-chip address. Affordable opportunities this close to the beach are becoming increasingly rare. Combining an unbeatable location, strong investment credentials and an enviable coastal lifestyle, this is the type of property buyers wait for-and one that won't stay available for long.
