Caulfield North is known for its charm — tree-lined streets, top-tier schools, and tightly held homes.

But hidden among the more obvious streets is one that rarely appears on realestate.com.au, barely makes a whisper at auctions… yet holds some of the most under-the-radar value in the suburb.


Its name? Manor Grove.


And if you're reading this — there's a rare window open right now.

Why Manor Grove?



You know those streets that seem like they were designed with intention?Where the houses feel settled, the trees perfectly matured, and the noise — gone?

Manor Grove is one of them.


It’s a short cul-de-sac just off Orrong Road, near Balaclava Road. But unlike many main-road-adjacent blocks, Manor Grove sits in complete stillness — thanks to:

  • No cut-through traffic

  • Underground power

  • Only a dozen freestanding homes

  • Long-time owner-occupiers

  • Zero commercial intrusion

It’s the kind of street you miss unless someone shows you.Which is exactly why it’s so valuable.




Who Buys in a Street Like This?

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Families who want a liveable home now, with capital upside later

🧱 Developers looking for flat land in a blue-chip zone

🏗️ Dream Home Builders dreaming of a modern architectural statement

🧠 Long-term investors seeking irreplaceable land


One home is now available:

  • 710 sqm of flat land

  • Existing house with rental or move-in potential

  • Private, established street

  • Zoned to Caulfield Junior College and minutes to leading private schools

This is not a teardown in a loud pocket. It’s not a skinny subdivision.

It’s rare, generational-grade land in a suburb already priced for scarcity.



Why Buyers Should Care

Streets like Manor Grove don’t get listed often. That’s not marketing hype — it’s statistically true.

  • Some homes haven’t sold in 30+ years

  • Nearby streets like Malonga Court, Sagamore Court, and Nyora Grove are similarly quiet — but with less land

  • Large blocks in cul-de-sacs outperform because of their scarcity, resale value, and family appeal

And as Melbourne's inner suburbs densify, the wide, green, quiet blocks will be the first to disappear from availability — but not from demand.


The Opportunity

If you’re looking for:

  • A quiet home with immediate livability

  • A knock-down rebuild opportunity with big upside

  • A long-hold land investment in a prized postcode

  • A prestige development block in a cul-de-sac

Then this is your moment.
