If you’re a regular reader of our posts, you’ll already be aware that buyer interest has remained strong throughout Melbourne’s inner north despite the impact of the current social isolation restrictions.

However, from time to time we experience a spike in the market in one particular area with even stronger buyer activity levels than usual, and based on our recent results it seems that it was the turn of Thornbury to draw the eye of buyers in the past week or so.

Yes, while some sections of the media were busy trying to convince us that the property market was due for a flattening of demand, the team at Barry Plant Inner North was busy negotiating some outstanding results for our vendors. These included:

44 Gooch Street, Thornbury

Offered for sale for the first time since new, this freestanding family home (pictured) offered three bedrooms plus the flexibility of a separate studio or home office behind the garage. Whilst comfortable as is, this property also had enormous potential for a future upgrade, as well as enjoying all of the lifestyle benefits of High Street at the end of the road. Our unique Sale by Set Date® marketing method was utilised in this campaign, and it proved particularly successful as the property was sold a good week before offers were due to close.

221A Collins Street, Thornbury

Strategically situated in between Thornbury High School and Penders Grove Primary School, this hidden gem provided a low-maintenance lifestyle with a high degree of day-to-day convenience. One of just two on the block, it featured three bedrooms and a study serviced by two bathrooms, a sleek kitchen where Caesarstone and stainless steel provided the highlights, and flexible dual living zones. Once again, a strong mid-week sale saw the SOLD sign go up at a very satisfying figure.

Results like these are a telling reminder that whilst the methodology may have changed in today’s property market, our ability to achieve outstanding results for our vendors hasn’t. So, if you are weighing up whether now is the right time to make a move, feel free to give the team at Barry Plant Northcote and Preston a call.
