High-rise and low-rise beachfront apartments, townhouses, and student-focused blocks near the university. Free-standing homes sit on the quieter inland streets.

Who moves here

Downscalers who want sea views, landlords letting to students and holiday guests, parents arranging accommodation for student children, and tenants who want to walk to the beach.

What matters day to day

  • Walking distance to Pollok and Hobie beaches
  • Short-let demand concentrates here over December and Easter
