Great Mackerel Beach, located on the Northern Beaches of New South Wales, presents a unique and tranquil living experience that sets it apart from the bustling city life of nearby Sydney. The housing market here is characterized by its exclusivity and charm, as the area is accessible only by boat or a challenging hike, contributing to its serene and secluded atmosphere. Homes in Great Mackerel Beach often feature stunning views of Pittwater and the surrounding bushlands, attracting buyers who seek a peaceful retreat with a touch of rustic elegance. Properties range from quaint beach cottages to modern-day architectural marvels, offering a wide variety of living spaces that cater to diverse tastes and needs. The limited access and natural beauty of the area tend to drive property values up, making it a notable spot in the NSW real estate landscape for those looking to invest in a slice of idyllic coastal living.
Living in Great Mackerel Beach is akin to having a permanent vacation amidst nature, where the community is close-knit, and neighbors often look out for each other. This secluded haven is perfect for those who appreciate outdoor activities, as it offers plenty of opportunities for hiking, boating, fishing, and swimming, all set against a backdrop of stunning natural scenery. The absence of cars encourages a slower pace of life and promotes eco-friendly modes of transport such as walking or cycling. While these factors contribute to the charm of the area, it is important for prospective residents to consider the logistical aspects of life here, such as commuting options, access to essential amenities, and the reliance on nearby Palm Beach for supplies and services. Despite these considerations, the area's natural beauty, coupled with its peaceful ambiance, makes Great Mackerel Beach an attractive option for those seeking a unique way of living, away from the hustle and bustle of urban centers.

Thinking about buying in Great Mackerel Beach? Now could not be a better time, with just 151 residential dwellings it's a highly sought after location. The average property price in this area is in the region of $2,000,000 with prices in this suburb ranging from $217,000 to $5,622,000. Great Mackerel Beach is located fairly close to the coast at just 0Km so as well as great views of the ocean and access to beaches, demand and valuations are likely to be a bit higher here.
Consistent high demand relative to supply is a key feature in Great Mackerel Beach driving regular price increases. Recent rapid price increases however may constrain future growth by limiting demand. Incomes in Great Mackerel Beach are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. A mix of professions and above average income earners in Great Mackerel Beach provides good demand. The lower than average housing turnover of these people also means fewer regular listings leading to periodic large price increases. Low population density implies low demand and limits housing choices and price increases. Could be a good entry point for first home buyers needing to somehow get into the market. Lower than average industry presence in Great Mackerel Beach we believe will be less of a negative impact than it has in the past. Post-COVID and the growth in working from home has lessened the demand for local employment options. This may make Great Mackerel Beach a better buying opportunity than it may have been in the past.
