A fresh wave of activity has swept across the Warragul property market in 2025, drawing attention from Melbourne-based buyers, local upsizers, and investors eager to secure property in this thriving regional location.

Warragul continues to offer the best of both worlds: a relaxed country lifestyle, combined with strong capital growth and infrastructure development, just over an hour from Melbourne.

As of June 2025, the median house price in Warragul sits at approximately $645,000, providing excellent value for buyers seeking more space without sacrificing convenience or amenity (realestate.com.au). Units and townhouses also continue to see strong interest from downsizers and investors.

The Barry Plant Warragul-Drouin team continues to see high enquiry levels at open homes, especially for lifestyle homes with larger blocks, renovated interiors, and easy access to schools, sporting facilities, and the town centre.

The RBA’s recent 0.25% rate cut to 3.85% has delivered a welcome confidence boost, particularly for regional buyers and investors who may have held off late last year. With mortgage repayments becoming slightly more affordable, many are moving quickly to secure property while conditions remain favourable (domain.com.au).

Current buyer demand is strongest for:

• Modern family homes with generous block sizes
• Renovated character homes with updated kitchens and bathrooms
• Low-maintenance townhousesare perfect for retirees and downsizers
• Acreage and lifestyle properties on the town's fringe

Well-presented properties often achieve strong offers within days of hitting the market.

The rental market in Warragul remains strong, with family homes in high demand and weekly rents continuing to rise, now sitting around $450–$500 per week, depending on property type and location. This steady rental growth is making Warragul increasingly attractive to investors looking for stable yields in regional Victoria.
