1/12-13 Marine Parade, The Entrance NSW 2261
2-bed beachfront unit | direct ocean outlook | security building | compact coastal layout | strong rental demand The competitive strength of this unit lies in its direct adjacency to beach access and the ocean view from the lounge, which is rare for a two-bedroom unit at this price point in The Entrance. The security building, fresh paint, new carpet, and internal laundry make it a well-presented, low-maintenance option. This property is best suited to owner-occupiers seeking a coastal downsizer or a weekend retreat, as well as investors targeting consistent rental demand from those who value immediate beach proximity over larger internal space. The building’s mix of owner-occupiers and renters confirms live-in and investment appeal, and the compact format aligns with typical coastal stock in this strip. The value of this unit may be influenced by its smaller size and the lack of lift, pool, or visitor parking, which could limit appeal for some buyers. The building’s age and the inconsistency in site dimensions between sources should be clarified, as they may affect perceptions of land value or future maintenance. Coastal exposure and potential traffic noise from Marine Parade are inherent trade-offs for the beachfront position. The lease evidence of $490–$500 per week implies a gross yield near 4.4–4.5% if a similar valuation applies, which is reasonable for the location but not exceptional. Buyers should weigh the premium for the ocean outlook against the compact layout and confirm the building’s strata health and any upcoming levy obligations.
