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.

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.

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 653 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 $763/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 653 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 655 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 William Porteous Properties International

Modernist Luxury

Residing on a tranquil street in the heart of Shenton Park, 197 Hensman Road is an iconic residence of substance and distinction; a triumph of contemporary design, a showcase of effortless style, understated elegance and modern luxury inspired by mid-century modern principles, meticulously planned by the current owners and crafted to perfection by Residential Attitudes, an affiliate of luxury builders, Oswald Homes.

This masterpiece of restrained architecture and magnificent exemplar of mid-century modern style is defined by clean, considered lines, multiple light filled living spaces, simple materials and a true connection to the outdoors.

Flawlessly integrated within its landscape, natural elements, colours and textures harmonise the connection between indoors and outdoors, whilst continuity of materials acts as a refined backdrop highlighting openness, function and organic architectural form. Topped by a Colourbond Monument roof, warm timber slats and a classic mid-century modern breeze block wall strike a stunning contrast against the black rendered façade.
