2/6 Thackeray Road, Reservoir VIC 3073

3-bed townhouse, edge of Oakhill Estate | low-maintenance strata of three | above-average energy score 4.9 | strong rental yield potential near 6% This property offers a rare combination of a modern three-bedroom townhouse in a small strata of only three, positioned at the edge of the established Oakhill Estate. The 4.9 energy efficiency rating is a genuine competitive edge, reducing holding costs and appealing to value-conscious buyers. For an owner-occupier seeking a lock-and-leave home or an investor chasing yield, the configuration is practical and the block size, while tight, supports low upkeep. The location provides good school zoning and solid suburb growth of 2.6%, making it a defensible entry into Reservoir. The key risk is the small block size, which limits future extension potential and may deter families needing more space. The wide value gap between Domain’s low estimate and Property.com.au’s higher figure signals possible overpricing if the guide pushes above $790,000. However, the rental yield estimate of over 6% offers a clear fallback—if the auction stalls, the property can perform as a high-yield investment with FTTP connectivity as a minor bonus. Hold for steady capital growth or rent for immediate cashflow.
