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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $856,000 (19 Jan 2023).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 885 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Cowaramup (last 5 years) with land size: median $989/m² of land (n=62). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

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 885 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 $618/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 885 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.

Listing material

Listed by Ray White Stocker Preston | Margaret River

Family Friendly and Absolutely Fabulous Home!

Located on a large corner lot in Parkwater Estate on the West side of Cowaramup, and just a stone's throw from the wide open spaces of the Parkwater oval, BBQ area and playground, this 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with theatre room is waiting for its brand new family to make it their own.

It's the light and bright inside/outside connection plus a range of special features that set this property apart from its peers. You will be instantly impressed by the design and flow through the home, created by character spotted gum floorboards, high ceilings and feature lighting throughout the kitchen and living areas.

Other qualities that mark this property as extra special are the mini-orb breakfast bar, some clever glass display and functional kitchen shelving, a large slow-combustion wood fire, classic 'barn doors' in the master bedroom ensuite, double showers and towel rails, and the caesar stone benchtops that add a classic finish to both the kitchen and master bathroom.

Read the full description

The kitchen layout is stylish and functional with a lovely outlook to the alfresco, and you will find there is a perfect nook or alcove for all the modern appliances. The microwave can sit under a bench out of the way. The coffee machine, kettle and toaster have their own positions too, and the five-burner gas cooktop offers plenty of room for the creative chef.

It's natural that you, your family and guests, will be drawn to the stunning covered timber-decked alfresco area with garden views. It's fully and securely fenced making it pet-friendly and perfect for young children (you'll know exactly where they are when you set them loose for creative outdoor play!)

The alfresco area has a ceiling fan and impressive lighting, making it superb for entertaining. You could set it up casually for morning coffee catch-ups or afternoon wine using comfy couches, cushions and throws; or utilize more formal outdoor furniture for dinner parties with family and friends.

Also, your children (or future children, or your friends' children) will thank you for their own 'new house' in the backyard - a super cute cubby.

With 885sqm of lot size to play with, the gardens are more than big enough for trampoline and lawn play areas, and there are productive vegie beds and fruit trees (nectarine, mandarin, orange, lemon, pomegranate and mulberry) already established. Two powered garden sheds, side access to the yard, a wood storage area and double garage complete the picture.

Book your inspection today.
