3/31 Creswell Avenue, Airport West VIC 3042

Rear block privacy | boutique three-unit enclave | Niddrie school zone | bluestone courtyard | low-maintenance floorplan This townhouse occupies a deliberately scarce position — one of only three units set behind the street frontage, which delivers a level of seclusion rare in this price band. The floorplan is unusually generous for a villa unit, with three genuine bedrooms including a master suite, two bathrooms with floor-to-ceiling tiling, and a kitchen specified with stone benchtops and soft-close cabinetry that would not look out of place in a detached house. For a buyer seeking lock-and-leave convenience without sacrificing living space, this property offers a clear configuration edge over comparable townhouses in the Niddrie-Airport West corridor. The dual parking — a remote garage plus a second driveway space on title — removes the compromise typical of attached housing. It suits owner-occupiers who value privacy and finish, and investors targeting the stable rental demand generated by the school catchment and proximity to Keilor Road amenities. The primary risk is the price guide sitting below the estimated value, which may draw competitive bidding at auction and push the final price beyond $790,000. The 2017 purchase price of $689,000 provides a reference point for capital growth, but the market has shifted since. No heritage, flood, or bushfire overlays reduce holding risk, and the Moonee Valley council area has maintained consistent demand. The rental midpoint of $665 per week supports a gross yield near 4.3 percent at the guide’s upper end, which is solid for a townhouse of this quality. Hold for medium-term capital appreciation driven by school zoning and infill scarcity, or occupy for a low-maintenance lifestyle with strong resale fundamentals.
