East Kew or Kew East whichever you like to call it. Even sometimes people called it ‘North Kew’ as geographically it sits on the top of the rest.
An old saying and the same saying to perfectly describe this leafy and prestigious suburb:” once you move in, you’ll stay for life”.
Kew East has lots of period homes, architect-designed homes and modern townhouses with low maintenance that attract all sorts of prospective buyers.
Parklands, golf courses, schools, local shopping districts and other amenities (eastern freeway, medical clinics, gym facilities) are a stone throw away. Price wise, it was often outmuscled by neighbourhood suburbs such as Kew, Hawthorn, Balwyn etc. These days you can really see a big upward trend on its land value, which upheld pretty well over the last 3 years. Certain pockets like Ramsay, Baker, Munro, Kew Island and Harp Junction, the price of which continue to rise and unsurprisingly they are neither cheap nor humble anymore. Among all the cousin suburbs such as Ivanhoe East, Balwyn North, Hawthorn East, Malvern East, Surrey Hills and Glen Iris etc, Kew East is definitely leading the group if not sitting in the driver seat.
For an eagle-eyed investors/buyers/developers, if value to price ratio is one of determining factors in your decision-making, before it turns out to be the best of the best, don’t let this one of the best slip through fingers.
