2/2 Donald Avenue, Essendon VIC 3040

3 beds, 2 baths, 1 car | quiet court backing creek | modern townhouse, 157m² | Strathmore Secondary zone The property presents a rare combination of modern townhouse living with a quiet creek-side position in Essendon, a suburb with consistent demand from young families and downsizers. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration with a single garage is efficient rather than expansive, but the open-plan layout, hardwood floors, and outdoor courtyard offer genuine liveability. Its zoning for Strathmore Secondary College adds measurable long-term appeal for family buyers, while the absence of heritage or flood overlays simplifies due diligence. This townhouse serves best as a low-maintenance family home or a solid rental holding within a sought-after school catchment. The primary risk is the 157m² lot, which limits future extension potential and may feel constrained for buyers accustomed to larger floorplans. The single garage with only one additional parking space could be a friction point for two-car households. On the opportunity side, the property’s modern finishes and split-system climate control reduce immediate capital outlay, and the court location buffers against through-traffic noise. Hold this property as a medium-term family home or a reliable rental in a tightly held pocket; its school zone and position should support steady value growth without requiring active management.
