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.

Site

Terrain

Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.

Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.

Flood, bushfire and heritage

i

Flood

Not retrieved

Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Bushfire

Not detected — official

The official layer was queried and no bushfire risk zone was detected on this parcel (Landgate SLIP, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.

Heritage

Touches boundary — official

The official layer maps a heritage listed area touching the boundary of this parcel — at the edge, not across it (Landgate SLIP, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Verify the mapped extent against the title before relying on it either way — this is not an all-clear.

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 966 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

Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. 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 $575/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.

2 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 966 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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 969 m² — land size can look like optionality. No material overlays were returned that would explain a discount. That is not proof the price is fair. Nearby DAs, easements, and flood-layer gaps can still explain a cheap-looking listing — those are not all loaded.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. 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

    No DA adapter returned applications 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 Mason Realty Albany

Central Character Home or Office

Ideal in its current form as an office, or convert back to a spacious family home, this character 1920's building offers flexibility of use and a very central location. With harbour views straight down Collie Street, and overlooking the CBD, everything is within easy walking distance. The large 966m2 block offers plenty of space, parking and potential for subdivision down the track.

Elevated from the road and with an elegant facade, this is a proud building constructed in Albany brick. The entry is welcoming and impressive - a solid timber door with leadlight surround opens up to a wide central hallway with high ceilings, deep coves, picture rails and a ceiling rose. There is currently a panel that separates the front and rear tenancies, but that is easily removed if desired.

The front two rooms either side of the hallway are spacious and retain heritage features such as high skirtings and fireplaces. To the enclosed side of the verandah is a toilet and kitchenette.

Read the full description

The rear tenancy is larger, with two rooms of similar size to the front, plus a very large meeting room with store - again, with the heritage trademarks you would expect. There is also a large reception, a kitchen area, entry foyer and bathroom. Access is from the back through the undercover parking area.

In terms of returning the property to a house, you effectively have 4 bedrooms, a large lounge, spacious kitchen / meals area plus bathroom. Of course, the flexibility is there to configure the property to suit your own wishes.

Features include:

- 1920's character building suitable for office or home

- Elevated facade with established gardens

- City and harbour views

- Large 966m2 lot with R40, Mixed Use zoning

- Potential for subdivision / redevelopment (STCA)

- 5 rooms, kitchen / reception, kitchenette, 1.5 bathrooms

- Parking for around 12 cars onsite including 2-3 undercover bays

118 Serpentine Road represents quite a rare opportunity to acquire a lovely heritage building in a very central location with such flexibility of use. The current tenants are keen to stay, however owner occupiers (both commercial and residential) will not have to wait too long to move in.

Please contact the agents for further information or to arrange a private inspection. As there are businesses operating from the premises, adequate notice must be provided for inspections.
