Iâd consider Docklands, but hadnât previously been looking there. The idea got nixed under the original plan because Docklands apartments tend to have quite small bedrooms (which didnât suit my parents). If itâs just me, I may look again.
I work in the CBD (Spring St area) as well as currently living here, so I WOULD like to stay within the âcan get into the centre quicklyâ kind of range. Being in the middle opens up a LOT of autonomy and independence for me. I like the area very much, I just donât like my current neighbours!

Go Docklands! Maybe look for an ex-rental being sold so that the overseas landlord doesnât have to pay land tax plus the 15% extra stamp duty. Should be a few around still. A two bedroom should have quite a lot of space for one person I think. Have fun looking, and spruiking the delights of Docklands to your parents âŚ
