While most attention stays on Central Wagga and Turvey Park, a new wave of property interest is quietly shifting to lesser-known suburbs. Whether it’s first-home buyers getting ahead of the curve or investors looking for value, Wagga’s “hidden gems” are starting to shine.
Spotlight Suburbs:
-
Ashmont: Once overlooked, Ashmont is seeing a shift. Entry-level homes under $400k are attracting young buyers and investors, and Council’s continued upgrades to parks, lighting and amenities are lifting the area’s appeal.
-
Mount Austin: With classic brick homes and generous blocks, Mount Austin offers huge renovation potential. It’s becoming popular with tradies and younger couples wanting to add value and grow equity.
-
Glenfield Park: Close to schools and South City Shopping Centre, Glenfield has become a strong family favourite. With newer homes and easy CBD access, it strikes a solid balance between affordability and convenience.
Why This Matters for Buyers:
These suburbs are still under the radar but sit just a few years behind in terms of capital growth. As infrastructure and reputation catch up, buyers in 2025 may be sitting on impressive gains by 2030.
