Popular inner-west suburb once named one of the world’s coolest places A stylish period home has just hit the market in the heart of Yarraville, once recognised as the fifth coolest suburb in the world. The four-bedroom 1920s Edwardian stunner at 28 Stephen Street, is one of the most impressive homes for sale in the small inner-west suburb, located 8km from the CBD.

All rental property types across Melbourne are in demand, with only overpriced homes staying longer on the market. “Most of our properties are rented out after one inspection,” Simone Buckley, Head of Property Management, Buxton Sandringham, said. “It is a difficult time to be a renter as rents have risen strongly and supply is tight.” In the city’s coveted bayside suburbs and nearby areas, listing numbers have halved in the past 12 months. Buxton Sandringham, with a rent roll of nearly 700 properties, averaged 20-25 listings a year ago. This has fallen to 8-10 listings or lower, Ms Buckley said.

In tandem with new listings, there has been an injection of fresh buyers into the market this spring. Buyer activity has risen in many areas, and with this confidence, the market will perform well going forward, according to Buxton Chelsea director and auctioneer Daniel Wright. The rise in activity was “promising and an indication that the market has picked up” and the coming months will be a good test for the sector, he noted.
