What you need to know about NSW's most northerly real estate

Tweed Heads is coastal town on the Tweed river, recognised for its tropical beaches, leafy landscape, and its status as NSW’s most northerly town.

More than half of the town’s occupied dwellings are freestanding houses; however apartments and townhouses are still popular on the beachfront.

The spectacular ocean views and warm weather makes it popular with retirees – Tweed Heads Median age has consistently sat 15-25 years above the national figure.

Fingal Head is the town’s most prominent beach.

Casuarina, which sits on the south-coast, is the most expensive area in the region.

In mid-2019 the Casuarina median house price was $1.2 million, compared to the overall Tweed Heads median of $790,000.

The main commercial precincts are the Tweed Mall Shopping Centre on Wharf St, and the Tweed City Shopping Centre on Minjungbal Drive.

Tweed Heads served as the primary backdrop for the fictional town of Porpoise Spit, in the 1994 cult-classic comedy film Muriel's Wedding.
