Question 1

Is Tascott a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Tascott is a small waterside suburb on the western shore of Brisbane Water between Woy Woy and Gosford. Streets slope down through trees to foreshore reserves and water views, and housing is a mix of older single-storey cottages and more recently updated waterfront homes. The Tascott railway station provides regular commuter services, while locals make the most of boating, fishing and nearby bushland for weekend recreation. Daily shopping and cafes are found in neighbouring town centres, keeping Tascott calm and largely residential in character.

About 1,675 people live in Tascott; the median age is 43 and median household income $1,882 a week. The suburb is a community weighted towards families, and roughly four in five homes are owner-occupied. Transport NSW has begun design work on an accessibility upgrade for the station and local road and drainage improvements for Glenrock Parade are listed, so some transport and local infrastructure changes are planned. Whether Tascott suits you will depend on how you value waterside calm, family-centred neighbourhoods and nearby town-centre conveniences.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Tascott?

Accepted Answer

In Tascott, a house renting for $750 a week would take about 40% of a typical local household's weekly income as recorded at the most recent Census (750 / 1,882 ? 39.9%). On these figures, that is a sizeable share of income, so renting a house would be a substantial weekly outlay compared with what households locally recorded at the last Census.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.

Question 3

Is Tascott a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

House values in Tascott fell 1.6% over the past 12 months, a slight decline in the suburb’s capital value over the year. The figures for unit values and for rents are not available here, so the house movement is the only recent market change shown.

For someone weighing Tascott up as an investment, that house figure is the capital-growth measure to focus on; if rental income is your priority there isn’t a recent rent movement in the supplied figures to assess. Whether a slight fall in house values matters to you depends on your own goals and circumstances.
