"Great cheap properties by the Beautiful Broadwater"
I love the fact I can walk all along the stunning Broadwater to Southport for work and by the time I arrive I'm at peace. This location is the hidden palace, it's just Labrador has a bad reputation from many many years ago and has not recovered to the full extent it should. The name needs changing (to reflect the Broadwater) as it sounds like an uninviting suburb when infact we are surrounded by water, water sports and a great handy location to Surfers. Labrador is undervalued, so many bargains, just ridiculous. The suburb is becoming very trendy in certain locations. I can see when the new Gold Coast Hospital opens in December 2012 properties will skyrocket as Doctors & Nurses like to live close to the Hospital incase of Emergencies. Coming from Lennox Head/Byron Bay I feel this area has still many opportunities in the horizon. It's wonderful as we are so spoilt, with a great variety of different restaurants on Frank Street and all within walking distance from home, stroll along Marine Parade and look at the spectacular view of Surfers especially the Night lights - just sensational.
