Shoalhaven Heads, located within the picturesque region of Shoalhaven, NSW, has seen significant shifts in its housing market over recent years. Traditionally characterized by its modest coastal charm and appeal to retirees and holidaymakers, the housing market in Shoalhaven Heads has experienced a growing influx of interest due in part to the broader regional trend of city-dwellers seeking more relaxed lifestyles. The demand here is driven by its affordability relative to the major urban hubs of Sydney and Wollongong.
