In recent years, the quiet beach-side neighbourhood of Kirra, located within the Gold Coast suburb of Coolangatta, has become an increasingly popular address for house hunters looking to secure a property along one of the Gold Coast’s pristine beaches.
Once known as a relaxed holiday spot for families, Kirra has now become the number one location for eager buyers on the Gold Coast.
According to REA, Kirra is the Gold Coast’s most popular suburb for prospective homebuyers over the past 3 months with over 2,900 product detail page views per listing in the area (REA, 2021).
Apartments, in particular, are seeing a surge in interest all along the Gold Coast.
Urbis, the Gold Coast property research and real estate advisory firm, has recently released its report for the first quarter of 2021, stating that Gold Coast apartment sales had surged by 97 per cent.
“In the first quarter of 2021, we saw a total of 742 new apartments sold in the Gold Coast marketplace,” Matthew Schneider, Director of Urbis said. (ABC, 2021)
“There’s a strong representation of people moving from other parts of Queensland to the Gold Coast and [from] other regions, ” he said.
“There is a big proportion of interstate migration, particularly out of Victoria, as people move north, driven by lifestyle opportunities.
“But, certainly, the relative value of apartments on the Gold Coast, compared to capital cities, is a really strong feature.”
So, Why Kirra?
With its pristine family-friendly beaches, relaxed atmosphere and intimate suburb size, Kirra is the undiscovered jewel of the southern Gold Coast.
Walking paths venture all along the foreshore and connect with the neighbouring suburbs, popular for early morning walks as the sun rises over the ocean.
Situated between Kirra Beach and Coolangatta is Kirra Point. This small headland is known to be one of the world’s best surf breaks in Australia and attracts surfers from all over the world.
Kirra is also conveniently located just minutes from the Gold Coast Airport, making getting where you need to go a breeze. Enjoy miles of dreamy beaches, clear water, laid-back cafes and restaurants… and now, home.
