Eagle Bay in the Margaret River region has a median house value of $2.86million – but the most expensive home currently on the market is priced at$10.5 million.

Queensland’s most expensive suburb for houses is Main Beach, on theGold Coast. Number 34 on the overall rich list, Main Beach has a mere 88detached houses (just 5.9 percent of all properties).

Bayview is the highest placing suburb in the Northern Territory, ranked 196overall. Median house value there is $1,081,238 million.

So what pulls premium prices from buyers in these areas?

Lawless says there’s definitely a pattern. Suburbs are either close to thewater, feature heritage homes or offer large blocks of land. Many have allthree going for them. All but three are less than 10km from their CBD.

Battery Point is the only suburb in Australia where it costs less than $1million to buy into the rich list, with a median house value of $861,560.

The rich list really is the home of the 1% – less even – with the top 25suburbs and surrounds accounting for just 0.5 per cent of Australia’spopulation. According to Mr Lawless, the vast majority of people can’t affordto buy, or for that matter, rent in these suburbs.
