Matraville, an older established area is situated approximately 9 kilometres by road south-east of the Sydney CBD. Matraville is in the local government area of the City of Randwick. It is in close proximity to all general services and amenities and almost walking distance to Westfield Eastgardens Shopping Centre and Maroubra, Malabar or La Perouse beaches.

The University of New South Wales is only 4 kilometres from Matraville and there is a regular and frequent bus service to CBD via Bunnerong Road, ANZAC Parade, ( UNSW) Oxford Street, Central Railway Station, Martin Place & Circular Quay.

The properties at Murrabin, Australia or Partanna Avenue have been well received by the market in 2009 and would most likely appeal to the owner occupier segment of the market. It is very quiet area too.

The house prices have gone up a lot recently as Maroubra and Little Bay are becoming unaffordable. Despite of this, you can still buy a Federation style house, close to the water on huge block of land for almost half the price of some of those in surrounding Eastern Suburbs for no reason. The growth hasn't been as dramatic as the surrounding suburbs however it's due to catch up.

Murrabin Avenue is a cul-de-sac off Bunnerong Road located at Matraville, an older established area situated approximately 9 kilometres by road south-east of the Sydney CBD. Matraville is in the local government area of the City of Randwick. It is very quiet and safe area too.

Murrabin avenue is in close proximity to all general services and amenities and almost walking distance to Westfield Eastgardens Shopping Centre, La Perouse and Maroubra beach. There are three primary schools, two public and one Catholic and Matraville High School. The University of New South Wales is only minutes away from Matraville.

Sydney Bus routes 391, 392, 309 and X92 provides fast and frequent service to City operating via Bunnerong Road, ANZAC Parade, UNSW, Oxford Street, Central Railway station, Martin Place and Circular Quay.

There are no many places in the exclusive Eastern Suburbs, between Vaucluse and La Perouse and close to the water, where you can find a decent Federation style house on 600+ m2 block of land for the $700.000.

The houses in Murrabin, Australia or Partanna Avenue are well received by the market and would most likely appeal to the owner occupier segment of the market. The suburb also experience increased gentrification largely due to its proximity to the CBD, the city's famous beaches and the University of NSW which caused an increase in demand for homes in the area and in turn significant price growth.

This is a suburb that is expected to see even stronger growth in the next few years.

Overall, highly recommended place to buy and live.
