Linden ^{NSW 2778}

Linden's house market is moving higher: the median sale price reached $1.03 million, roughly 25% above where it sat a year earlier.

Houses in Linden are currently listed at around $1.1 million on average. Based on 3 houses listed in the past six months.

3 of the suburb's 190 dwellings (1.6%) were listed for sale in the last 6 months.

The three add up to the change above. These are council-wide figures from the ABS, not figures for this suburb alone — this suburb's own population is in the census section above.

Households face an average residential rates bill of $2,080 a year through Blue Mountains based on 2024 figures.

Zoning sets what may be built, not what is there today. A single address can sit in a different zone to the suburb around it — the property page shows the zone for one address.

In the year to August 2026, 123 new dwellings were approved across Blue Mountains. That mix is 109 houses and 14 units. Approvals are up 13.6% on the same period a year earlier.

Aboriginal Land Council

Aboriginal land in this area is administered by the Deerubbin Local Aboriginal Land Council.

Local Aboriginal Land Councils are statutory bodies under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act 1983, responsible for land claims and land management for their members. Their boundaries are administrative and are not a statement of whose Country this is. NSW does not publish a register of Aboriginal parties by area — they are registered for each project.
