No verification items generated for this record.

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.

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

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

Not detected — official

The official layer was queried and no heritage listed area 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.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

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 1,103 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 $871/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 1,103 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 1,107 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.

HOME OPEN CANCELLED

Soak up those soul-stirring Indian Ocean views to our famous Rottnest Island every single day, from this sensational 4 bedroom 3 bathroom two-storey coastal retreat, purpose-built with a clever reverse floor plan that puts the scenery front and centre.

This one is more than just a quality home. It is an over-sized slice of land - effectively only two streets back from glorious Sorrento Beach - with exciting possibilities in every direction. Subdivide the neighbouring vacant lot (550+sqm approx.) and unlock future value, or keep the entire footprint as your private playground with plans already in motion for a basketball court.

Read the full description

There is still ample room for a swimming pool, workshop, studio or whatever dreams you have been waiting to unleash. It's backyard bliss, on an unrivalled scale.

For now though, embrace a fantastic separation in the floor plan, where the downstairs minor sleeping quarters are serviced by a generous games room with its own built-in kitchen/bar - dishwasher, integrated range hood, gas-cooktop, under-bench oven, storage and all. It seamlessly flows out to a terrific rear alfresco where covered entertaining and outdoor storage is complemented by direct backyard-lawn access - and stairs leading up to a stunning full-width upper-level balcony.

Also on the ground level is a second or "guest" bedroom suite with a "his and hers" walk-in wardrobe, leading through to an intimate ensuite/second bathroom with a shower, twin-vanity basins and a separate toilet. The third and fourth bedrooms both boast built-in robes, whilst the main family bathroom caters for everybody's personal needs in the form of a shower and separate bathtub. There is also a powder room adjacent to the games room, whilst the functional storage-laden laundry extends outside for drying.

Upstairs, the master suite is huge and has its own full-width front balcony, as well as an over-size walk-in robe and a sumptuous ensuite with a shower, twin vanities and a separate toilet. A nearby sitting area - with access into a separate study - adds flexibility to the layout and virtually creates what would make for a brilliant parents' retreat.

A second powder room can also be found on the top floor, preceding an expansive open-plan living, meals and kitchen area, where most of your casual time is destined to be spent. This exceptional zone is graced by soaring high raked ceilings, feature pendant lighting, natural light streaming through massive windows and a feature fireplace.

The kitchen alone oozes class in the form of a walk-in butler's pantry, sleek stone bench tops, a large island breakfast bar, double sinks, a dishwasher, gas cooking, double ovens, a range hood and endless storage. It all flows out to the breezy covered alfresco-style back balcony, benefitting from the best sea-view vantage point of all.

This amazing location allows you to stroll to the surf and sand, leafy Robin Reserve and two of the coast's best schools in Sorrento Primary and Sacred Heart College. Hillarys Boat Harbour, the buzz of Hillarys Beach Club, the Marmion Angling and Aquatic Club and a host of lush local parks keep the good times close.

Westfield Whitford City, the revitalised Karrinyup precinct for further shopping, vibrant Flora Terrace dining, golf courses, public transport and the freeway are all within effortless reach, as well. Coastal convenience, luxury and development potential rarely collide like this!

Other features include, but are not limited to:

• Quality wooden floorboards

• Carpeted bedrooms

• Sliding-stacker balcony/alfresco doors

• Pitched feature balcony ceiling

• Under-stair storage

• Walk-in upper-level linen press

• Solar-power panels

• Ducted air-conditioning

• Feature ceiling cornices

• Feature skirting boards

• Down lights

• Double lock-up garage with internal shopper's entry and external/side access

• Quality build on a massive 1,103sqm (approx.) block
