Essendon's median house price is up a strong 12.0 per cent this year to $1,679,500, with 296 sales, an increase of 6.9 per cent on last year. That combination of rising prices and rising volume is a genuinely strong signal for this anchor suburb.
The apartment market is active too, with 290 unit sales, up 10.3 per cent, even as the median eases slightly to $493,750. Clearance has improved across both, up 5.6 per cent for houses to 66.8 per cent and up 13.2 per cent for units to 69.9 per cent, while days on market have fallen sharply, down 20.6 per cent for houses and 19.0 per cent for units.
With excellent transport links via the Craigieburn line and a genuine mix of period and contemporary homes, Essendon continues to draw broad demand. This combination of price growth, volume growth and faster sales points to a market with real underlying momentum heading into spring.
