These sought -after suburbs come close to reaching a premium price point, with typical house values that are about to exceed $ 2 million.
Another 18 suburbs could join the $ 2 million club in the coming months, with interest rate letters that buyers have more money to spend more money and to help to increase home values.
Access to this exclusive group would place these suburbs in the top 8% in Australia for house prices, according to proptrack data.
Eight suburbs in the $ 2 million barrier to break through were found in NSW, while six were found in Queensland, three in West -Australia and one in South Australia.
The suburbs on the list have average house prices between $ 1.9 million and $ 2 million, based on a minimum of 30 turnover in the past year.

Most have recorded moderate price growth in the past year, although the price growth in a few suburbs was relatively stable.
In some suburbs, such as East Fremantle, Sunrise Beach and Redfern, the median house prices in the past have briefly hit the $ 2 million, but recently momentum suggests that the milestone can be surpassed soon.

Achieving a median house price of $ 2 million would mean that a normal home in these suburbs is worth more than double than double a typical Australian house, which is currently appreciated at $ 915,000 according to the latest Proptrack Home price index.
REA Group Senior economist Eleanor Creagh said that a wide range of factors had helped to increase these suburbs to the advantage of the market for millions of dollars.
“Although geographically diverse, these suburbs share a combination of lifestyle occupation on a diverse package of buyers,” she said
“They are usually well connected to employment hubs, or offer desirable facilities such as beaches, park lands or lively retail and eating years.”

A potential median prize of $ 2 million indicated how wanted these suburbs, said Creagh.
“A higher value usually reflects the desirability of a suburb and the premium buyers are willing to pay for the location, lifestyle and housing characteristics.”

Many of the suburbs that are about to break the $ 2 million barrier are located in sustainable pockets of the capitals, including Wembley Downs and North Coogee in Perth’s coastal areas and Paddington and Bardon in Brisbane – are now among the top 20 most expensive suburbs in every city.

In Perth, Broker Carlie Baker van Witte Huis Real Estate Partners said that very fast growth in recent years had pushed prices in North Coogee to the top of the market, but it still offered a relative value compared to more expensive suburbs of the beach such as Cottesloe.
“North Coogee is now in that luxury waterfront category,” she said. “You can walk to the beach, and that is a huge attraction.”
Despite the house prices that $ 2 million approached, North Coogee offered relative value compared to more expensive suburbs of the beach such as Cottesloe, where most houses cost more than $ 3 million, Mrs. Baker said.
Various $ 2 million suburbs were found in Queensland in popular pockets of the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast, where strong population growth-partly driven by people moving from the capitals-the home values.

Although the suburbs that were about to break through the barrier of $ 2 million, usually found in the most expensive parts of their wider city or region, that is not exactly the case in Sydney, which indicates how expensive houses have become in the most expensive Australia capital.
Sydney has the highest median house price of the capitals $ 1.56 million, according to the last proprack house price index-what means that suburbs with $ 2 million-plus status are not that far from the standard in the port city.
The hopeful participants of the city of the suburbs of $ 2 million clubs were spread over the inner, middle ring and the outer regions of the city, rather than concentrated on one local market.

A few family -oriented suburbs further from the CBD, including Gymea Bay and Westleigh, offered houses with leaf views or proximity of natural areas.
“Westleigh is one of those areas that many people don’t know,” said Ray White Upper North Shore broker Amy Kaslar.
“Many buyers come because they are too expensive in other markets such as Wahroonga and Beecroft.”

In the suburbs of Northwest Kellyville and Pitt Town, the prices are ready to crack the $ 2 million, with values of spacious or recently built properties that have been reinforced in recent years.
Although many home buyers have been stabbed outside the capitals to lifestyle destinations in recent years, the data shows that many buyers still appreciate the proximity of CBDs of Capital City.
Sections within around 15-30 minutes of commuting of the CBD, such as Redfern in Sydney and Paddington and Clayfield in Brisbane, have almost hit the $ 2 million, from which the value of many buyers takes place on a house near employment centers.

Auctioning and place Paddington director Andrew Degn said that the proximity of Paddington to the city, combined with the lower density and development restrictions, stood behind the $ 2 million increase.
“It is all protected character and we have no major developments or high -rise buildings because we just don’t have the country to do that,” he said.
Buyers were mainly owners who bought their second or third house, he said.

Mrs Creagh said that interest rates and the ongoing population growth would probably offer further support in real estate prices in the coming year, especially if the number of houses for sale remained limited.
“Even modest increase in buyer’s demand can translate into strong competition if the stock levels are limited,” she said.
