The Heart Of The East

8 Mar 2024

Property in Randwick has always been in high demand but over the past year things have really taken off with 2.5% growth from March 2023 to February 2024 with a median house price of $3.28m. Our Randwick specialist Daniel Cachia says, “Randwick is the biggest suburb in the east but there are currently only 63 dwellings on the market which represents just a 1.5% market share. For vendors, that means now is a great time to list and capitalise on the lack of competition and buyers who find a property they like should act swiftly and do their due diligence before someone else snaps it up.”

We’ve rounded up a selection of great homes in Randwick that offer a perfect blend of location and lifestyle with easy access to the city and east’s best beaches. First up, Daniel’s listing at 7 Kemmis Street, Randwick is perfect for those looking to upgrade from an apartment in a fantastic spot in the Frenchmans Road’s village precinct with a buyer’s guide of $2.2m. Daniel says, “Perfectly comfortable as is, there’s real potential in this Victorian terrace with rear lane access offering scope for parking as well as potential to open out the rear to integrate with the sunny level garden and extend the upper level, subject to council approval.”

For those looking for more space, the beautifully renovated apartment at 20/109-111 Alison Road, Randwick offers over 100sqm of living space plus an oversized lock-up garage with a buyer’s guide of $1.225m. Set back from the road and overlooking a sunny pool, the three-bedroom apartment is a superb turnkey opportunity just 250m to the Wansey Road light rail and an easy walk up to the town centre or down to Centennial Park.

At the top end of the market, 7 Douglas Street, Randwick is a gorgeous double-fronted Victorian villa right on the Clovelly border on a level 420sqm block with double garaging at the rear and a gorgeous garden with a heated pool as centrepiece with a buyer’s guide of $.6.55m.

New to the market this week and in the dress-circle of Randwick North, 65 Dangar Street, Randwick is an impeccably renovated Federation classic on a dual access 420sqm with double garaging at the rear and Centennial Park at the end of the street with a buyer’s guide of $4.75m.

Those looking to renovate should check out 34 Frenchmans Road, Randwick. In good original condition and set on 486sqm approx with R3 zoning, the freestanding Federation home is on the market for the first time in almost half a century offering a world of opportunity just up from Merivale’s The Dog and a level 400m stroll to Randwick Public School.

Finally, we have a choice of designer apartments in the landmark Centennial complex just behind the park in a gateway location between the city and beaches at  4304/88 King Street, Randwick  and 1202/88 King Street, Randwick. Both apartments feature an oversized one bedroom plus study layout with large entertainer’s decks, lift access to secure parking and a sunny outdoor pool.
