About Menai
Menai is the largest and most established suburb in the 2234 postcode, sitting approximately 24 kilometres from the Sydney CBD within the Sutherland Shire. With a population of over 10,400 residents, 24 parks covering nearly 18% of its 13.6 square kilometres, and an average home ownership period of 15 years, Menai is a suburb where people genuinely put down roots.
It's not hard to see why. Menai offers the combination that families consistently search for — excellent schools at every level, multiple shopping precincts, outstanding recreational facilities, and bushland on the doorstep — all within comfortable commuting distance of the city.
The suburb is served by three major retail precincts along Menai Road: Menai Marketplace, Menai Metro and Menai Central. The Menai Indoor Sports Centre on Carter Road offers recreational activities for all ages, and the surrounding bushland provides walking trails, cycling paths and nature reserves that make the school holiday question an easy one to answer.
Schools in Menai
Education is one of Menai's strongest drawcards, with excellent options at every level.
Primary schools include Menai Public School and Holy Family Catholic Primary School within the suburb, with Inaburra School offering K–12 private education in nearby Bangor. For secondary students, Menai High School, Aquinas Catholic College and Shire Christian School are all accessible from Menai.
Early learning is well covered through Hobart Place Early Education Centre, Play 'n' Around Early Learning Centre, Goodstart Early Learning Menai, Allison Crescent Early Education and Young Phoenix Academy.

Frequently Asked Questions — Menai Real Estate
How long does it take to sell a property in Menai?
Based on current market data, houses in Menai are selling in a median of approximately 20–25 days, reflecting healthy buyer demand and well-priced stock moving quickly.

The best way to understand how your specific property is likely to perform is to speak with one of our local agents for a free, no-obligation appraisal.
How much is my property worth in Menai?
The median house sale price in Menai is currently $1,740,000 (Cotality, May 2026), up from previous years as the 2234 market has shown consistent growth. However, every property is different — street position, block size, aspect, presentation, school catchment and recent comparable sales all influence the final result.
KORE Shire Partners offer free, obligation-free property appraisals across Menai and the wider Sutherland Shire. Our agents will assess your property against current market conditions and give you an honest, accurate picture of what you could achieve.
Is now a good time to sell in Menai?
Menai continues to attract strong buyer demand from families seeking the combination of good schools, bushland lifestyle, and city accessibility. With limited stock consistently coming to market relative to demand, well-presented properties are achieving competitive results.
The best time to sell depends on your personal circumstances as much as market conditions. Our team can walk you through the current market, comparable recent sales in your street, and the timing that makes the most sense for your situation. Call us for a no-obligation conversation.
Should I sell by auction or private treaty in Menai?
Both methods work well in Menai depending on your property type and current market conditions. Auction works particularly well for properties with strong emotional appeal — family homes on generous blocks in good school catchments tend to attract competitive bidding. Private treaty suits properties with a more defined buyer pool or vendors who prefer a less pressured timeline.
At KORE Shire Partners, we'll recommend the method that gives your specific property the best chance of achieving a premium result — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
