Australia's 100 most expensive streets ranked
More than half of the most expensive streets in Australia are located in Sydney suburbs.
The rising cost of living has hit many Aussie households hard, but that hasn’t stopped the most affluent Australians from living in very expensive multi-million-dollar homes.
Research by SuburbTrends ranked Australia’s top 100 most expensive streets in the country. The research generated house-price estimates for every street in Australia, removing those where the average property size was over 2,000 square metres and those where they could not find house-price estimates for at least five homes.
Unsurprisingly, more than half (51) of the top 100 streets were located in Sydney, followed by Melbourne (27), Sunshine Coast QLD (10), Byron Bay (10) and Perth (2). The list included 80 streets from capital cities and 20 outside of the capitals.

Sydney’s eastern suburbs had the most number of expensive streets listed but the top spot went to Hallstrom Close in Northbridge, NSW, where the median home price was more than $7.4 million.
The most featured suburbs were Byron Bay, NSW (10 streets), Toorak, VIC (10 streets) and Vaucluse, NSW (nine streets).
Suburbtrends founder Kent Lardner said the ranking highlighted how much the top streets around Australia were concentrated in and around our beaches and Sydney Harbour.
“Byron Bay and Noosa suburbs represented around 20 per cent of the results, which was rather surprising. It highlights how much wealth now sits outside of the top suburbs of the capital cities,” Lardner said.
Lardner noted the methodology was not about selecting streets with one or two sales of mansions, or streets with very large block sizes.
“We have selected streets with a significant number of houses with the highest overall median prices, rather than selecting a street based on the sale of one mansion. Our methodology has created a very different 'top streets' list, representing streets with a significant number of high-priced properties and surrounded by the highest-priced homes in the country," he said.
“Home buyers, sellers and agents should know how a street ranks within a suburb, especially in today's market. For sellers and agents, this can help sell a home just like any other feature. For buyers, more listings are now entering the market compared to previous years.”
