Bendigo Real Estate Market Wrap: 20 April to 27 April 2025
With the Anzac Day public holiday midweek and many residents taking extended breaks, Bendigo’s property market still showed impressive resilience across a slightly shorter sales window. Key suburbs such as Junortoun, Ascot, Maiden Gully, Bendigo CBD and Golden Square saw steady movement, with several high-value sales underpinning the market’s ongoing strength.
While the volume of sales was slightly lower compared to earlier weeks in April, the quality of transactions remained high, offering further proof that buyer interest is spread across family homes, lifestyle properties, and well-located inner-city residences.
Let’s unpack the week’s key results.
Junortoun Steals the Show with High-End Lifestyle Sale
The standout result this week was the sale of 13 Homebush Drive, Junortoun, handled by Jen Wallace of Bendigo Ballarat Real Estate. This six-bedroom, three-bathroom lifestyle property on 1.7 hectares sold for 1,330,000.
Demand for larger lifestyle properties remains strong, especially among buyers seeking space, privacy and premium living within easy reach of the Bendigo CBD. Junortoun continues to build its reputation as a leading lifestyle destination for tree-changers and growing families.
Ascot and Maiden Gully Continue to Attract Families
In Ascot, 6 Charolais Court sold for 831,500, a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home managed by Patrick Skahill of Elders Bendigo. Ascot remains popular among family buyers for its proximity to schools, parks and transport links.
Maiden Gully recorded another strong sale with 13 Eden Way achieving 780,000. Sold by Matt Connolly of Ray White, this four-bedroom home on 680 square metres catered perfectly to families seeking modern convenience and generous space in an established suburb.
Bendigo CBD and Surrounds Offer Affordable Inner-City Opportunities
Closer to the centre of town, 41A Hopetoun Street, Bendigo sold for 560,000 through Matt Connolly. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence on 437 square metres represents excellent value for buyers looking to live close to the CBD without the premium price tag usually attached to inner-city addresses.
Such sales show there is still strong interest in well-presented properties within walking distance to Bendigo’s main amenities, schools and employment hubs.
Golden Square Remains a Consistent Performer
Golden Square continues its consistent form, with 1 Hurling Court selling for 640,000 through Bawa Singh of Buxton Bendigo. A three-bedroom home on a 620 square metre block, this property attracted a broad buyer pool including upsizers, downsizers and investors looking for reliable capital growth and rental appeal.
Golden Square’s balance of affordability and location keeps it high on the radar for a wide range of buyers.
Kangaroo Flat Delivers Mid-Range Value
In Kangaroo Flat, 21 Short Street sold for 530,000 via Adrian Robinson of Belle Property. This four-bedroom, one-bathroom home on 421 square metres represented great value for families and first-home buyers alike, especially given the suburb’s expanding retail and transport infrastructure.
