157 Highbury Road, Burwood VIC 3125
Large 696sqm block in Burwood | Renovate-or-rebuild potential | Near Deakin University and trams | Strong demand from families and investors The property is defined by its substantial landholding on a near-700 square metre block, a rarity in Burwood’s established housing stock. Its positioning near Deakin University, Burwood One Shopping Centre, and public transport provides a convenience that appeals to families and investors alike. The size of the block and the explicit allowance for renovation or rebuilding make it particularly suited to buyers seeking a property with future potential rather than immediate turnkey living. It serves best those who value location and land over existing finishes. The price may be influenced by the unknown age and condition of the house, as interior finishes are not confirmed and some capital expenditure might be required. A gap between advertised expectations and true worth is suggested by the property’s off-market valuation, though this may reflect different methodologies rather than mispricing. Redevelopment potential might be constrained by zoning or overlay requirements, but the listing implies opportunity subject to council approval.

Recent market conditions show robust house price growth, though unit performance is more varied with some softening in quarterly figures and extended selling periods. Key future drivers include sustained high auction clearance rates, while risks centre on affordability pressures and a notable recent contraction in sales volumes, indicating potential supply and demand rebalancing.
