Question 1

Is Seventeen Seventy a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Seventeen Seventy is a small coastal village on a headland overlooking Bustard Bay, famous as the place where Captain Cook made his second landing. Fringed by sandy beaches and coastal bush that leads into Eurimbula National Park, it has a relaxed, holiday-oriented character with low-rise beach cottages, holiday rentals and caravan parks rather than dense development. A handful of shops and cafes and launch points for fishing, reef and bay excursions serve locals and visitors, and neighbouring Agnes Water provides additional services. The town attracts people who favour quiet seaside living, boating and nature-based recreation.

With a population of 125 and a median age of 57, the community is weighted towards couples without children, and most homes are owner-occupied (about 86.6% combined) with around 13.3% rented. Council-led work is under way on coastal adaptation, boat ramp carpark and amenity upgrades, water and sewer improvements, and planning for a marina precinct and a camping ground, alongside shoreline erosion studies. Whether Seventeen Seventy suits you will depend on how much you value a quiet coastal base close to nature and boating access.

Accepted Answer

Seventeen Seventy hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to produce reliable house, unit or rent figures. Without current price or rent data, there isn't a clear way to compare how expensive it is to live in Seventeen Seventy against the suburb's typical household income at the last Census.
