286 Livingstone Road, Marrickville NSW 2204

Demand stays high because Marrickville pairs gentrified precincts, transit upgrades and tight stock, so buyers compete for the spacious blocks near the city. Buyers target CBD access, steady rental demand – especially for units – and houses still deliver mid-single-digit growth while unit yields sit near 3.8%. Affordability pressure and weak yields are the main risks, yet the new $1.5 billion Timberyards build-to-rent plus minimal approvals should keep growth prospects intact and prices on a gentle upward trend over the past six months, mirroring the 6.6% house and 3.6% unit lifts to January 2026.
