3a Ellington Street Caulfield South James Home Ratings

3A Ellington Street, Caulfield South

James Home Rating: 531
Inspected: 23/8/2025

Position

The property sits close to Hawthorn Road cafés and shops, which is a real positive for lifestyle buyers. On inspection day, the open was busy — plenty of people through, which confirms it has broad appeal.

Property

This is very much a low-cost entry into Caulfield South. That’s its main attraction. The home itself is modest, functional, and comes with some compromises:

• Orientation: South-facing rear
• Floor plan: Very basic, including a walkthrough kitchen and a couple of internal steps that interrupt flow
• Connection: Semi-detached, joined at the hip to the neighbour
• Car parking: Spaces at the front are a little tight, but the land width means you’ll likely fit two.
• Rear access: Limited, but available
• Backyard: A good-sized outdoor space, which balances the smaller house footprint

Buyer Fit

This home will suit first-home buyers, young couples, small families, or even investors. It’s not about architectural brilliance or standout design — it’s about affordability in a great location.

The big questions for buyers here:

• Do you like it?
• Can you afford it?
• Can you beat the crowd who will also want it?

Market & Value

• Expect strong interest — the price point and location make it accessible.
• It’s not a prestige property, but as an entry into Caulfield South, it works.

Summary

A modest, functional entry-level property in Caulfield South with good land width, rear yard, and parking. South rear and basic floor plan are negatives, but location near Hawthorn Road is the clear plus. This one will come down to budget and competition on the day.
