5/9 Long Valley Way, Doncaster East VIC 3109

3 bed | 2 bath | 2 car | townhouse on ~171m² | school zone appeal | flood overlay noted This townhouse is competitively positioned in Doncaster East as a low-maintenance, family-oriented property with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two car spaces on a compact but usable land area of around 171 square metres. The internal layout of 149 square metres offers more room than typical entry-level units, and the inclusion of features like ducted heating and cooling, built-in robes, and a combustion fireplace adds genuine comfort and liveability. Its zoning for Milgate Primary School and East Doncaster Secondary College is a significant driver of buyer interest, particularly among families seeking access to strong school catchments without the upkeep of a detached house. The configuration also appeals to professionals and investors, with rental demand supported by the bedroom count, parking, and school proximity. The flood overlay identified on the title is a material factor that may influence insurance costs and buyer confidence, though it does not necessarily preclude development or sale. The property’s value may be shaped by how the market weighs school zone desirability against this overlay risk, especially if comparable townhouses nearby lack such a designation. Buyers should also consider that the townhouse has appreciated since its last sale in March 2021, and current pricing may reflect both genuine demand and the premium attached to school catchments, so a careful review of recent comparable sales is warranted before forming a price view.
