Kew

Overview

Kew is an inner-east suburb within easy reach of Melbourne's CBD, with tree-lined residential streets and local cafés and public transport. Local shopping, dining and transport sit close to the residential streets, within a short walk or tram ride of most homes.

local village shopping puts cafés, shops and local services within walking distance of period houses and newer apartments, which tends to suit owner-occupiers who want more space with cafés, shops and public transport close to home.

The current median house price sits around $2.58M, with annual movement that has softened compared with the prior year. Even so, comparable sales on the same street can sit well above or below that line depending on period detail, land and condition.
