100 Buckingham Boulevard, Strathtulloh VIC 3338

Brand new | Balmoral Estate | East-facing 392m² | FHOG + stamp duty eligible | Strong owner-occupier suburb This property represents a rare entry point into a premium estate with a configuration that suits first-home buyers or young families seeking modern turnkey living. The east-facing orientation on a 392m² block provides natural morning light and functional yard space, while the four-bedroom layout with a dedicated master suite aligns with what the 73% owner-occupier profile in Strathtulloh typically demands. Being brand new and eligible for both the First Home Owner Grant and stamp duty exemption effectively lowers the buyer’s cash requirement, which improves holding flexibility in a rising rate environment. The Balmoral Estate’s reputation and the street’s 95-property scale suggest limited future supply competition, supporting long-term value retention. The primary risk is the short holding period—the property was purchased in 2021 for $265,000 and resold in 2025 for $360,000, implying a 4.69% annual growth that may not repeat in the near term given current market conditions. Buyers should not rely on rapid capital appreciation. However, the rental yield band of 3.49% to 4.78% offers a viable fallback if circumstances change, and the absence of stamp duty preserves exit flexibility. Hold this property for at least five years to absorb any post-settlement softness and benefit from the estate’s maturation.
