Glen Iris home sells $150k above price guide
A tidy red-brick home with no shared land and a low-maintenance garden has become a hot-ticket item in Glen Iris, exceeding its price guide with a $1.4m sale under the hammer. The three-bedroom home at 2 Charles St had been quoted a $1.25m-$1.35m price guide, but five bidders, including a neighbour, helped push the result $50,000 above the top of the range. While the weather was icy, competition was anything but, with Buxton ACOM director and auctioneer Peter Gigis declaring it one of the cleanest and most confident winter auctions he's handled in recent memory. Inside 'Hospitality Yoda's luxe Melb home 'The property was announced on the market at $1.25m and ended up selling for $1.4m,' Mr Gigis said. 'It was a solid result, especially for a single-level home in Glen Iris, which continues to be in high demand.' Mr Gigis said the picture-perfect property on 301sq m charmed older buyers with its stand-alone layout, mature gardens and sun-soaked courtyard, all within walking distance of Burwood Village, light rail and the upcoming Suburban Rail Loop station. 'Downsizers were the dominant force here. At least four of the strongest bidders were older couples who'd just sold in the area,' he said. 'But in the end, it was a young couple who secured the keys, and the vendors, a brother and sister who'd inherited the home, were thrilled.' The neat interiors include a front lounge, open-plan kitchen and dining zone, and three robed bedrooms, including one with direct bathroom access. Extras like ducted heating, evaporative cooling, ducted vacuum and a remote garage with second car space added to the turnkey appeal, while the wraparound courtyard offered leafy privacy and an outdoor entertaining zone. The Buxton ACOM director said demand across Ashburton, Camberwell, Oakleigh and Mount Waverley had ramped up noticeably this winter. 'This is easily the strongest winter market we've seen since before Covid,' Mr Gigis said. 'Stock's still incredibly tight, especially in places like Glen Iris and Ashburton, and buyers are acting fast when the right home comes up.' Mr Gigis The fact 2 Charles St had no common land was a rare and highly prized feature. 'You can find units and villas in Glen Iris, but not many that are stand-alone like this one. That made a huge difference,' he said. Mr Gigis expects a spring surge to follow once the July lull clears, with rate relief and low listings creating a perfect storm for sellers. 'We're already seeing momentum build for September,' he said. There's definitely more confidence than there was last year, buyers and sellers alike are getting ready.' The sale was managed by Mr Gigis alongside Buxton Oakleigh's Emily Duvnjak.
