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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $770,000 (22 Nov 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 2,028 m² against a 124 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Serpentine (last 5 years) with land size: median $178/m² of land (n=83). 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 2,028 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 $629/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 2,028 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 O'Neil Real Estate

SOLD BY TRAVIS GROGAN

This home truly is extraordinary with every aspect being finished perfectly, with a style and flair that honours the original 1940's construction without compromising on modern comforts. The result - a unique and incredible property which is unmatched by any character homes on the market.

THE HOME

Almost every element of the dwelling has been updated and restored throughout the years, yet the character has not only been retained - it has been enhanced and at every turn there is an eye-catching talking point which is in stark contrast to many of the boring and soulless homes built today.

Read the full description

Soaring high ceilings, ornate cornices and exposed timber beams set the tone for the home, whilst updated lighting and a renovated kitchen and bathroom keep things super comfortable for entertaining and everyday living.

The house consists of 3 large bedrooms and a remodelled bathroom, however there are plenty of options to accommodate more people both within the house and the external buildings if required.

The back of the house features the typical 'sleep out' which was a given from this era, the current owners have converted this into a very impressive bar which interconnects with the enormous, decked patio and creates a simply incredible space for entertaining.

THE PROPERTY

Situated on 2028SQM (roughly half an acre), there are so many beautiful things to take in as you meander through the yard. Healthy lawns, established gardens and a mind blowing array of fruiting and ornamental trees are situated throughout the yard and the bore water helps keep it looking amazing all throughout the year.

With a chook pen, firepit, two large sheds and gated access available from the rear laneway; you have an abundance of space and features to enjoy whilst still having room for pets and little ones to spread out and stretch those legs. This is something that is becoming increasingly rare in the age of small blocks and artificial lawns - your family will never grow tired of utilising this space!

THE OUTBUILDINGS

There is so much to take in with this property and capturing everything with words and photos doesn't do it justice! Starting from the front, there is a carport which has been added to the left side of the house and the original lockup garage on the right side has been converted into an absolutely incredible teenager's retreat/ studio which offers a variety of options to suit your needs.

Beyond this, the external washhouse/ laundry is such a super convenient setup on a property like this because it also serves as a great place to clean up after a day of working or playing in the yard!

At the bottom corner of the block, there are two more sheds - one of which has been fitted out with two rooms and a semi-enclosed games room. The vine-covered pergola at the front creates the perfect setting for a drink in the evening and yet another large area for entertaining… you really can cater for the masses with all these spaces!

THE LOCATION

Serpentine has become an increasingly sought after area where you can enjoy the feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle, yet you are only 20 minutes from Byford town (including the future train station), 30 minutes from Rockingham and Mandurah and less than an hour from the City. This property also sits just a short stroll from the town centre with its medical centre, post office, bottle shop, butcher, and convenience store. The highly regarded Serpentine Primary School is just a short stroll away and there is plenty to explore in the nearby National Park including the Serpentine falls and a myriad of walk trails and scenic drives.

WHAT NEXT?

This really is an extraordinary home and it will be popular. Inspections are by appointment, so to check it out please use the CONTACT AGENT FORM on this website and we will be in touch to book in a viewing.
