9 Ballantine Street Tarneit VIC 3029

4 beds | 349sqm lot | under median | Riversdale 500m | Wyndham growth zone This property sits below the Tarneit median for four-bedroom houses, which gives a buyer immediate equity headroom in a suburb where 1,372 properties have traded this year. The 207sqm floorplan with two ensuites and outdoor entertaining area is configured for dual-occupancy flexibility or a family with teenagers, making it more lettable than the typical four-bedroom layout. Barayip Primary within walking distance and Tarneit Senior College zoning serve the family buyer demographic that drives demand in this corridor. The Wyndham LGA’s active clearance rate of 40 percent signals a market that turns over without overheating, reducing the risk of overpaying in a rising-rate environment. The main risk is the 349sqm lot size, which limits future subdivision potential and may feel constrained for buyers accustomed to Tarneit’s larger blocks. No bushfire, flood, or heritage overlays lower insurance costs and remove remediation delays, but the property’s value growth will track the suburb’s median rather than outperform on land scarcity. A buyer should hold this as a rental after purchase; the $545 weekly rent estimate produces a gross yield near 4 percent, which covers holding costs in a market where 30 percent of households rent. Use the FTTP and 5G coverage to market to remote workers, but do not pay a premium for it.
