June 2025

Buying property in Sydney has always been a competitive game, but for those who got in early in the right suburbs, the past decade has brought outstanding returns. Whether you’re an investor seeking capital growth or a homebuyer wanting long-term value, looking back can help inform your next move.

As a professional buyers’ agent, I track suburb-level data constantly to identify where growth is happening—and more importantly, where it’s heading next. Below are 10 Sydney suburbs where property prices have doubled since 2015, ranked from the smallest to the highest growth by percentage.

1. Seven Hills

• 2015 Median Price: ~$630,000

• 2025: ~$1.28 million

• Growth: +103%

Seven Hills continues to offer value for families and investors alike, with strong transport links, schools, and infrastructure supporting steady capital growth.

2. Mount Druitt

• 2015: ~$480,000

• 2025: ~$980,000

• Growth: +104%

Long considered “one to watch,” Mount Druitt has seen a major transformation thanks to government-backed urban renewal and significant investment in community infrastructure.

3. Gladesville

• 2015: ~$1.15 million

• 2025: ~$2.35 million

• Growth: +104%

Nestled along the Parramatta River, Gladesville offers lifestyle appeal, water views, and strong community ties—making it a quiet achiever in Sydney’s north-west.

4. Kingsgrove

• 2015: ~$850,000

• 2025: ~$1.75 million

• Growth: +105%

Kingsgrove is a rising star in the St George area. Its gentrification, solid brick homes, and proximity to the M5 corridor have attracted families and developers alike.

5. Greenacre

• 2015: ~$705,000

• 2025: ~$1.45 million

• Growth: +106%

A hidden gem in Sydney’s south-west, Greenacre is thriving off the back of cultural vibrancy, new infrastructure, and proximity to Bankstown Metro upgrades.

6. Bardwell Valley

• 2015: ~$950,000

• 2025: ~$2 million

• Growth: +110%

Bordered by parklands and golf courses, Bardwell Valley is an unexpected performer, offering serenity just minutes from the airport and the CBD fringe.

7. Tempe

• 2015: ~$900,000

• 2025: ~$1.9 million

• Growth: +111%

Tempe has shrugged off its industrial past to become a hip Inner West locale. Its proximity to the city, character homes, and creative energy make it a growth magnet.

8. Bexley

• 2015: ~$920,000

• 2025: ~$1.95 million

• Growth: +112%

Bexley has long benefited from the strength of the St George region. With excellent schools, multicultural dining, and public transport, its popularity continues to grow.

9. Vaucluse

• 2015: ~$3.5 million

• 2025: ~$7.45 million

• Growth: +113%

In pure dollar terms, Vaucluse outperforms almost every other suburb. Prestige, views, and limited supply mean long-term wealth creation—even without flashy % swings.

10. Schofields

• 2015: ~$550,000

• 2025: ~$1.2 million

• Growth: +118%

Schofields has exploded with the arrival of the Northwest Metro, massive new housing developments, and rapid population growth. It’s a classic case of the “new suburb boom.”
