Located in an idyllic seaside village in Byron Shire, NSW, the South Golden Beach Project epitomises the Australian coastal lifestyle, perfect for those looking for a sea-change or tree-change to move away from city life and work from home surrounded by nature and tranquillity. This pandemic has encouraged many of us to look inwards at what truly matters, and many of us have realised that the spaces we surround ourselves in and the communities we are a part of are very high on the list. With remote working becoming commonplace, it is easy to see why someone would want to embrace a more relaxed, community-focused lifestyle, and prefab modular homes can provide just that.
Byron Shire is a beautiful area famed for its world-class beaches and unique character. It is home to a scattering of villages and towns, each with their own diverse look and feel. South Golden Beach is one such village, a relaxed and laid back town that wraps around a stunning expanse of beach. This home is set right on the edge of a coastal reserve, with the beach only a short stroll away. Perfect for adopting a healthy work-life balance, the South Golden Beach home provides unparalleled access to nature within a vibrant town community when you step away from your desk. In many ways, this prefab modular home truly personifies the Australian dream beachside home, and would make the perfect place for a young family to settle down away from the hustle of a big city.

This unprecedented time has allowed many City dwellers to reflect and reassess how and where they would like to live in the future. Many predict there will be a shift towards a sea-change or tree-change, for example, relocating within 2 hours of Melbourne where good infrastructure and fast NBN services are provided.
2020 has proven that productivity and working from home is possible, and that flexible working arrangements will be negotiated into the future.
