What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,670,000 (24 July 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 496 m² against a 121 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in West Leederville (last 5 years) with land size: median $4,969/m² of land (n=11). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

What could make it worth less?

No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No hazard layer has been retrieved — confirm flood, bushfire and heritage exposure from council mapping before an offer.

Each line above is labelled. A fact is quoted from the named source, with its date. A calculation is worked out by Districts from those facts — you can check the arithmetic. An interpretation is Districts' opinion of what the evidence means, not a fact, a valuation, or advice. Anything we haven't retrieved yet is marked as missing rather than treated as a pass.

Capital growth

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 496 m² — that is not official geometry. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $564/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property. Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded. Suburb vacancy or leased-tape days are not this property’s competition.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Verdict

What this means for this property

Districts view

Not enough official evidence yet to underwrite this as an investment.

Detail

The same ten questions apply to every property. Missing flood, nearby DAs, achieved rents, or lot geometry is unknown — not “no.”

Do not treat a suburb median, an advertised yield, or a listing score as the case for this lot.

The evidence loaded so far isn't enough on its own to change a buy, offer, or walk-away decision for this property.

Evidence

What is known for this property

Districts asks the same ten questions of every property. If one shows as unknown, that data isn't published for this state or hasn't been loaded yet — the question stays visible so you can see exactly what's missing.

1 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 496 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

  • Honest achievable rent

    Knownlow

    This is not “bond data says this address leases for $X.” The comparable figure is a suburb advertised/median rent, not this property. Official bond files (postcode or suburb × type × bedrooms) are not loaded yet.

  • Rental supply pressure

    Unknown

    Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.

  • Why is this cheap?

    Unknown

    The constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

  • Catalyst exposure

    Unknown

    Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

  • This lot's DA history

    Unknown

    Development applications have not been queried for this parcel.

  • Statutory land value versus ask

    Unknown

    Statutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Enjoy Friday nights at the Leedy Bowls club at the end of the street, wander to Leederville institution "Hylin" for your morning coffee or enjoy a cocktail every night of the week at Besk, one of Perth's most popular, up and coming food and wine destinations - this is a community rich in diversity and sought after for its vibrant, family friendly atmosphere.

Home to urban professionals, young families drawn to the area for its walkability and access to some of the city's top rating schools, colleges and day care centres, or those seeking to downsize to a life that is anything but suburban, this is a property that is sure to tick plenty of boxes for a diverse range of buyers.

Constructed in 1916 and designed to stand the test of time, this 100-year-old character home bears all of the traditional hallmarks of the Federation era. Boasting soaring character ceilings with original cornices and picture rails, sash windows and original working fireplaces. This is a home with solid bones and timeless features that is 'move in ready'.

Set on a 496sqm land parcel, it features a sprawling backyard framed by mature trees - An absolute rarity for this fast-growing inner-city precinct.

The original cottage follows the traditional floor plan for homes of this era with three generously sized bedrooms off a central hallway with high, ornate ceilings, generous proportions and working fireplaces.

The central hallway gives way to the main living area with original jarrah floorboards and the same high ceilings moving into a combined, open plan kitchen and living space full of old world, country style charm with timber framed doors and windows providing a leafy outlook to the lush garden oasis beyond.

The country style kitchen has been modified and updated with timber benchtops, plenty of underbench cabinetry, a large electric stove with gas cook top and rangehood and original, wide timber floorboards underfoot. Part of the open plan kitchen, dining and entertaining space, it features a panel of timber framed windows with French doors opening out to a covered rear timber deck - the ideal location for quiet reflection beneath a canopy of Jacarandas and Lilly Pillys.

The third bedroom could easily double as a home-based office or study for busy professionals and is consistently sized with the same generous proportions and character features.

The rear bathroom continues the country cottage theme throughout with its rich slate floors, timber cabinetry and sunken bath and is linked to an indoor/outdoor renovated laundry.

The sprawling gardens at the rear of the home provide a leafy oasis in this busy inner-city precinct and are a garden lovers' paradise. Full of mature fruit trees and dotted with Jacarandas and Lilly Pillys, it's a true fairy garden in the heart of the city with vegetable gardens, a powered garden shed and rear rainwater tank. Secure, off-street under cover parking for two cars is another rarity in this in demand precinct where space is at a premium.

Surrounded by superbly renovated original homes and architecturally designed residences, this is an increasingly rare and unique property located within the West Leederville Primary School and Bob Hawke College catchment areas with both West Leederville and Leederville train stations just moments away.

Well serviced by public transport and within the Free Cat bus zone, it offers easy access to freeways north and south, a range of community sporting facilities, some of the city's most exciting bars and restaurants as well as medical and hospital facilities, and the entertainment hubs of Oxford Street and Rokeby Road.

We look forward to showing you through.
