Our suburbs.

Where the surf club, the corner store and the school run all sit within a barefoot walk of the sand.

One road in and no through-traffic, a fiercely local surf town held together by the flags, the lagoon and the point.

Where big family backyards run up against national-park headland, and the beach at the end of the street stays wild.

The Coast's working heart, rebuilding itself fast around the water, the stadium and the station.

On the calm side of the Coast, with Brisbane Water at the end of the street and everything else within ten minutes.

The first stop off the M1, with bushland living, family value and the whole Coast at the bottom of the hill.

The southern Coast's everyday heart, with the mountain at its back, Brisbane Water at its feet and the beaches over the hill.

Framed by Bouddi's bushland, a quiet lagoon and a beach with just a kiosk and a surf club, Macs is the Coast with the volume turned right down.

Gardens, heritage and open-air events at the gateway to the Coast, and the region's most unexpected address.

Acreage country on the Old Road, with national park on three sides and the M1 at the gate.

A green valley with its own stations, schools and a well known ecovillage, one stop up the line from Gosford.

A quiet ribbon of dune-backed sand between two famous neighbours, kept unhurried by the locals lucky enough to live behind it.

A quiet clifftop pocket where surf breaks, fairways and national-park headlands meet the Pacific.

Acreage living, waterfall country and your own M1 on-ramp in the Coast's rural hinterland.

Golden sand under Norfolk pines, the Skillion standing guard, and the Coast's liveliest esplanade just behind the dunes.

Nearly four kilometres of open sand with a nature-reserve lagoon at its back, five unhurried minutes from Terrigal.

The peninsula's front door, where the trains, the wharf and the pelicans all meet on Brisbane Water.

Family streets under the bush line, ten minutes from Gosford and priced to make the Coast possible.
