Given the $1,300,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,300,000(Listing record · 27 Aug 2026)
  • FactLand 1,304 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in West Beach (last 5 years) with land size: median $724/m² of land (n=67). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)
  • CalculationAsk is 82% above the West Beach median recorded sale ($715,000, n=7, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at West Beach's advertised median rent ($484/wk), implied gross yield would be 1.94% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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 1,304 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 $484/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 1.9%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. 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 1,304 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.

Where Lifestyle Takes Centre Court

Set on an impressive 1,345m² allotment in West Beach, 21 Smith Street is a beautifully transformed three-bedroom, two-bathroom home where considered design, contemporary finishes and an exceptional lifestyle offering come together.

From the street, the home's crisp white brickwork, warm timber entry and contrasting black detailing create an immediate sense of style. Inside, the transformation continues with an understated palette that feels both contemporary and warm.

One of the home's defining features is its polished concrete flooring, revealing the warm-toned aggregate of the original concrete and adding texture, character and a subtle connection to the home's past.

Read the full description

At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen pairs concrete benchtops with rich walnut cabinetry, complemented by brand-new Westinghouse appliances and a practical layout connecting effortlessly with the generous living and dining spaces.

Extending from the home is the large north-facing rear deck. Bathed in beautiful northern sun, this is a superb extension of the living space and an enviable place to entertain, dine or simply unwind.

The deck overlooks Esperance Bay, the basketball court, landscaped backyard and fire-pit area below, allowing you to enjoy the view while still feeling connected to everything happening in the yard. Morning coffee in the sunshine, afternoon drinks overlooking a game on the court or dinner as the day winds down, this is a space designed to be enjoyed.

Accommodation comprises three bedrooms, each with built-in robes, while two beautifully finished bathrooms continue the home's material palette with walnut cabinetry, contemporary fittings and spacious showers. Excellent storage, including a dedicated linen cupboard, adds to the home's everyday functionality.

But it is outside where 21 Smith Street really sets itself apart. A huge private basketball court creates an extraordinary recreational space for children, teenagers and adults alike, with plenty of room for a serious game, weekend competitions or simply shooting hoops after school.

Beyond the court, landscaped gardens provide room to play and unwind, while the dedicated fire-pit area creates another inviting place to gather with family and friends.

Adding another dimension to the property is a detached multi-purpose studio/retreat, an incredibly versatile space ready to adapt to its next owner's lifestyle. Create a home gym, home office, library, games room, theatre, creative studio, children's playroom, entertaining space or teenage retreat.

A unique under-house storage space reveals yet another point of difference. Framed by exposed brickwork and a striking natural stone feature wall, it offers excellent additional storage as it stands, while also inspiring possibilities as a wine cellar, whisky room or distinctive space for a prized collection.

It is this combination that makes the property so compelling: beautifully renovated interiors, substantial land, an enviable West Beach location, views across Esperance Bay, superb northern light, multiple spaces to entertain and unwind, and recreational features rarely found within a residential property.

For families wanting more than simply a beautiful home, 21 Smith Street delivers a lifestyle all of its own.
