Suburb Profile Broadbeach Waters

Broadbeach Waters 

Commentary

Bounded by the Nerang River to the north and the Nerang Broadbeach Road to the south, Broadbeach Waters incorporates the boutique areas of Moana Park, Rio Vista, Florida Gardens, Miami Keys, Coral Gables and Cypress Gardens.

Over the years the area has transformed from a cluster of holiday homes for the wealthy to a sought-after location for retirees and families looking for an idyllic lifestyle.

Characterised by canal-frontages, many of the older homes are being renovated and, in some instances, demolished to make way for new executive dwellings.

The area`s housing options are diverse, with family homes as common as prestige mansions in the million-dollar plus range.

Pacific Fair -- the second largest shopping centre in Queensland -- and the Broadbeach Mall, which includes the Oasis Shopping Plaza, are only minutes away and cater to most of the retail needs of residents.

Broadbeach Waters is a unique area where residents can enjoy canal-frontage homes while being only minutes from world-renowned beaches and still have the convenience of facilities associated with city living.
