Located only 6km from the Canberra CBD, Cook’s proximity to the city has resulted in the suburb’s median house price rising to as high as it has ever been.
Cook has seen 14.1% growth in its house market, and the vacancy rate hovers at a reasonable 1.2%. Investors will also be attracted to the high rental yield for units, which was 4.7% in the previous quarter.
Despite being close to what Canberra has to offer, the suburb itself is not short of amenities.
The local shopping centre has a supermarket, a cafe and restaurants.
There’s also a preschool and a school park.
Commuters can take a bus to Canberra from the stop at the Templeton St Cook Shops, so, unsurprisingly, the suburb is favoured by young adults working in the city
