Commuters happy to leave the city behind


So we keep reading that the trend is towards convenient-CBD living right? Well, here's an article from a different perspective for less 'hustle and bustle' living. This is based on New South Wales but it's still a trend  We live in a two-speed economy. Even within the property part of the economy different states are experiencing different growths because of different demands, different needs. Anyway! It's interesting..

''People love that kind of open space''

''The price point is a key factor''

''Everyone is looking at what they can get for their maximum spend"

One for the road: Bankstown's Potts Hill master-planned community is likely to attract daily city commuters.

''People like to live in an area that isn't built up, by parks and bush with lots of greenery around. There's also good road links nearby, there's a bus stop on the doorstep and Birrong railway station is 800 metres away."

Travel is not an issue when you've got a house to come home to

When Darren Watt and his wife, Leanne, decided to move out of a rented home in Gymea in the Sutherland Shire and buy a house, they were happy to stay in that same outer-Sydney ring.
Although Darren, 24, still commutes daily from Ingleburn Gardens Estate, developed by Monarch Investments Group, to the city where he works, he doesn't mind travelling.
''There's a lot of bush around, we're right on the M5 and M7 junction, and the nearest train station for the south-west rail link is just 500 metres away,'' he says.
Darren and Leanne, 26, moved into their new four-bedroom home just four weeks ago with daughters Sienna, 5, and one-year-old Cassie, and 18 home-bred guinea pigs that their border collie loves to herd.
''I don't mind commuting at all,'' says Darren, who bought a $449,950 house-and-land package. ''I just love coming back every day to my own home.''
