$785,000Median house price · VIC 3023
Burnside Heights is the newer of the two suburbs, built around contemporary estates such as Arbour and Modeina rather than the larger established lots of Burnside. That is why its median sits below Burnside's, at a lower entry price for a comparable family home.
Published medians range from about $730,000 to $881,000, a spread driven by small quarterly samples, so the high $700,000s to mid $780,000s is the defensible read. Around 94 houses sold over the past year, homes change hands in about 25 days, and supply is very tight, with inventory near 0.62 months. Units sit closer to $460,000.
For investors, Burnside Heights returns a gross rental yield near 3.5%, higher than established Burnside, with house rents around $560 a week. Tight supply and steady capital growth, about 18% over five years, make it a growth-and-hold suburb driven by family owner-occupier demand.
