Strathmore runs from Woodland Street in the south to the Moonee Ponds Creek in the north, with Pascoe Vale Road on the east and Bulla Road and Essendon Airport on the west. The Tullamarine Freeway cuts the suburb in two, and Strathmore station on the Craigieburn line links it to the city. Parks such as Napier Park, with its stand of old river red gums, and the reserves along the creek add to its family appeal.
Strathmore’s median house price sits around $1.5 million (REIV, March quarter 2026), but houses averaged 62 days on market and the auction clearance rate was 66.7%. That suggests buyers here take their time and vendors do not always get their price on the day. A buyers agent in Strathmore can use that slower pace to negotiate well, particularly after a property passes in or has sat on the market for several weeks.
Thirty minutes on your brief, your budget and the streets and property types that genuinely fit it. No obligation.
We inspect, shortlist and run the due diligence, including homes that sell quietly and never reach the portals.
We set the price strategy, negotiate or bid on your behalf, and manage the contract through to settlement.
Strathmore’s two halves trade differently. The freeway divides the suburb into northern and southern sections, and the western edge sits hard against Essendon Airport. Aircraft and freeway noise vary by street, so check both at different times of day rather than relying on a single inspection.
Strathmore Secondary College is a strong drawcard, and its zone affects demand street by street. Confirm the exact address at findmyschool.vic.gov.au. Many homes are older family houses on decent blocks, and some will need renovation, so building reports and permit history matter. The slower days on market are the opportunity. Properties that have been listed for several weeks or have passed in at auction can be negotiable, particularly where vendors have already bought elsewhere and need to sell.

Book a free strategy callStrathmore’s longer campaigns change how we approach a purchase. With houses averaging 62 days on market, we track how long each property has been listed, whether the price guide has moved or the home has passed in, and what the vendor may have already committed to elsewhere. That background often shapes a stronger offer than simply bidding on the day. On due diligence, we look closely at noise from Essendon Airport, the Tullamarine Freeway and main roads such as Pascoe Vale Road and Bulla Road, which can vary sharply over a few streets. Older family homes often have extensions, pools or outbuildings added over time, so we check permit records. We also confirm school zones by exact address, because demand for Strathmore Secondary College can make a single street boundary worth a noticeable difference in price.
Many of our purchases never reach the open market.
A slower market like Strathmore’s suits a patient, well-prepared buyer. Lou uses his experience as a selling agent and auctioneer to judge when a vendor is ready to deal, which matters when homes are averaging 62 days on market. Alana checks school zones, title, building reports and airport-related planning controls, so you understand exactly what you are buying. Sharyn finds family homes through her network that may never be advertised, giving you options beyond the listings. Because we charge a fixed fee and work only for buyers, our negotiation stays focused on your best result.
