In the popular district of Tuggeranong, you’ll find the attractive and friendly suburb of Wanniassa, surrounded by beautiful bush walking tracks, bike paths and some of the most magnificent views in all of Canberra.
Sales Consultant at Ray White Canberra, Kate Coultas, says Wanniassa has had fantastic market growth, and is a very sought-after suburb.
“There’s a large amount of quality schools in Wanniassa, both private and public, like Mary Mackillop College and Wanniassa Primary School, both with amazing facilities,” says Ms Coultas.
“It’s wonderfully positioned close to both the Lake and Woden Precinct, and the Erindale Shopping Centre along with the Wanniassa Shopping Centre has everything you need.”
The inner-Tuggeranong suburb has a real mixture of families, professionals, and couples residing in the area, and there’s a large age demographic, Ms Coultas says.
“There’s some first home buyers there as well – it’s a large, evenly spread mix,” says Ms Coultas.
“The properties in Wanniassa generally create a large number of inquires due to it being an established suburb with a collection of newer properties including dual occupancies and smaller developments.”
The suburb is fairly well priced, even with the strong demand, and has great public transport being in a central location.
It’s a step out from over the ridge and is perfect for people who find it difficult breaking into the Woden market.
Ms Coultas has her favourite spots in the suburb and says she can’t go past the famous Turkish Grill.
“I love the Cherry Bean coffee shop, and Wanniassa Hills Nature Reserve has the most amazing views and is beautiful for hiking,” says Ms Coultas.
According to data on realestate.com.au, the median house price in Wanniassa has increased from $627,000 in October 2020 to $805,000 in December 2021.
