Bellevue Hill is king among the ten most expensive suburbs in Australia
Bellevue Hill reigns as Australia’s most expensive suburb, but movements in the top ten show fresh patterns of deep spending.
The suburb retains top spot, even after a 3.3 per cent dip in the median house price compared to last year, when it was also number one.
Bellevue Hill is the only suburb in Australia with a multimillion-dollar median that starts with a number eight.
The top ten, according to Domain’s House Price Report (December) have a combined median of $55,669,000.
Mosman and Barangaroo, along with Bellevue Hill, also experienced cooling medians.
Unsurprisingly, all of the magic ten are in New South Wales, and some have experienced double-digit median increases, to land them in elite territory.
North Bondi had the greatest price growth of the top ten, lifting 26.3 per cent over 12 months.

Rose Bay was ranked sixth in last year’s list, but has surged to third, behind Vaucluse – another postcode which has held onto its position from 12 months ago.
In Rose Bay, a penthouse on the market through Sydney Sotheby’s International Realty, typifies the best of this suburb, where the median is $6 million.
The living room at at 3/746 New South Head Road captures views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, North Sydney and Mosman, with a “New York bar”, butlers’ pantry and custom interiors.
Bronte was top three last year, but this year, according to Domain figures, there were not enough transactions to extract a median house price.
