13/142 Faunce Street, Gosford NSW 2250

Top-floor studio unit | Walk to station, CBD, hospital | 671m² land component | Company title ownership | 75% renter-dominated suburb This property’s strongest buying case lies in its top-floor position within a secure complex, combined with a rare 671m² land component for a studio unit—an unusual configuration that may offer future redevelopment optionality. The location within 500 metres of Gosford’s train station, CBD, and hospital provides exceptional walkability, directly supporting rental demand in a suburb where 75% of residents are renters. The unit is best suited to an investor seeking a low-maintenance, cash-flow-positive holding in a central growth corridor, rather than an owner-occupier wanting space or privacy. The primary risk is company title ownership, which can restrict financing options and resale liquidity compared to strata title, and may deter some buyers. The studio layout also limits appeal to single professionals or couples, narrowing the tenant pool. However, the unit’s low annual outgoings of $4,232 and estimated rental yield of 5.1% to 5.6% offer a clear income buffer. The 17-day average days on market for Gosford one-bedroom units signals strong turnover, and proximity to Gosford High School adds a demographic anchor. A buyer should verify company title covenants and lender policies before proceeding.
