The 4 Streets Buyers Fight Over in Camden
There are streets in Camden that buyers talk about, some pockets are tightly held, quietly competitive and rarely see homes last long on the market.
If you’re buying or selling in Camden in 2026, these are the four streets you need to know about.
Alpha Road
Alpha Road is one of Camden’s quiet achievers.
What locals know:
• Morning traffic is lighter here than most surrounding streets
• It’s a comfortable walk to Camden Hospital and the Aquatic Centre
• Homes here tend to be owner occupied rather than investment
• Renovated brick homes, which buyers trust for long-term value
Exeter Street
Exeter Street has always had a reputation as a “safe buy.”
What locals know:
• It sits within easy walking distance of Camden Public School
• Blocks are wider than many nearby streets
• Renovated homes here often sell quietly before they even hit major advertising
Broughton Street
Broughton Street is pure Camden charm.
What locals know:
• The jacaranda trees create a purple canopy in spring that buyers fall in love with
• Many homes are original Camden-era builds with high ceilings and character features
• It’s one of the most photographed streets in town
• Locals know listings here rarely last long — because they rarely come up
Oxley Street
Oxley Street has quietly become one of Camden’s strongest family streets.
What locals know:
• It’s noticeably quieter than surrounding connecting roads
• School drop-off zones nearby make it ideal for young families
• Many homes here have already been modernised — meaning less renovation risk
• Neighbours tend to stay long-term, keeping turnover low
Why These Streets Outperform
Across these four streets, you’ll notice the same pattern:
• Lower rental density
• More owner occupiers
• Walkable lifestyle
• Consistent buyer demand regardless of market conditions
That’s why they sell first and sell stronger.
