Gosford NSW 2250

Gosford is the Central Coast’s capital in everything but name. The trains, the hospital, the courts and the stadium are all here, strung between the ridge lines and the Brisbane Water shoreline. The past decade has changed the skyline. Apartment towers now rise around Kibble Park and the waterfront, Leagues Club Park gives kids one of the best playgrounds in the state, and the Mariners run out at the stadium a short walk from the station. The old commercial strip is filling in with cafes and small bars as the new residents arrive. For buyers this is the Coast’s apartment market. Units make up nearly all the sales, priced well under the beach suburbs, and they suit commuters, downsizers and investors chasing yield. Houses on the surrounding ridges trade rarely and rarely last long.
