Bigger Homes Are Finally Moving

Rosebud is Melbourne's highest-volume Peninsula suburb by some margin, with 386 house sales this year, and something notable is shifting within that volume. Four and five-bedroom homes that had felt stagnant for months have started selling and going unconditional, with noticeably quicker time on market all of a sudden.

The median house price is up 5.2 per cent to $810,000, and the unit market is a genuine standout, clearing at a perfect 100 per cent, up 50 per cent on last year. Buyers here want the full coastal lifestyle, close to the beach with room to move, and something they can walk into without a major reno.

With upgraders the dominant buyer type in the $700,000 to $1.2 million range, and demand for the right home strong against relatively weak supply, well-presented larger family homes in Rosebud are experiencing a genuine shift in momentum right now.
