3/40 Johnstone Street, Peakhurst NSW 2210

Peakhurst’s strong family profile, nearby public and secondary schools, and just 137 houses sold in the last year keep competition concentrated around the suburb’s quieter pockets. Buyers are locking in 2–4 bedroom homes in the $1.5–1.7 million range because the suburb still undercuts most inner-Sydney areas while delivering low-traffic streets and quick links to Hurstville and Riverwood hubs. Price growth has been a steady 4–5% over the past year, mirroring NSW’s broader upswing as rate-cut hopes and new first-home-buyer incentives keep demand buoyant, yet affordability pressure and any tightening of lending settings remain the chief risks even as the Sydney-wide story points to further upside in 2026.
