Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,160,000 (3 Mar 2023).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 1,227 m² against a 122 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)

What could make it worth less?

No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.

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 30 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 30 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 1,227 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 $696/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 1,227 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 1,230 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.

Character on a triplex block!

This 1953 built California Bungalow style brick and tile home is sold in an “as-is” condition and sits on a 1227m block with a frontage of 20.1m and depth of 60.9m, giving you options galore!

The R20/25 zoning allows for a 2-lot or 3-lot development, subject to council and WAPC approval. with minimum lot size allowed of 300m and average lot size allowed of 350m

Option 1 - Let your creative juices flow and transform this abode into the large family home with city views on the huge block that you have always wanted.

Read the full description

Option 2 - Retain the existing home and subdivide the rear with wide access down the side.

Option 3 - Demolish and build three new homes with a few different configurations to choose from.

For those that are looking forward to a "renovation" project, the home has appealing period features that could spring to life with a makeover to highlight the character and create a fusion of old and new, framed by a spacious front garden and enough room at the rear to create the grandest of living styles and entertaining areas.

Upon entering, you will be welcomed with high ceilings, period cornicing, and jarrah flooring throughout.

The large combined family and dining area enjoy a central fireplace with large window views to the front garden. This would be further enhanced by removing the dividing wall and renovate the sizeable kitchen to create the heart of the home as a massive open plan kitchen/dining/lounge.

The master bedroom sits at the front of the home, also with front garden views and could alternatively be established a formal lounge or second family room.

The second bedroom is also large and rests further along the L-shaped hallway, with front garden views.

The third bedroom at the rear of the home is the smallest, but still with enough room for a double bed and window views to the massive rear garden.

The bathroom and laundry are basic but neat, and certainly useable until you plan your future renovation.

The rear land is your blank canvas to either divide and create a further one or two homes, or finally get to have the space to build a massive multi car garage, work-shed, pool surrounded by decking and Cabana, vegetable gardens, lawns for the kids and dogs to run around, plus a granny flat for the parents, and all the time enjoying the terrific city views.

It's hard not to admire the central Lilac tree with its yearly bloom of purple flowers and is tailor-made to hang the kid's swing or as the backbone for their home-made cubby house.

The location is ideal, situated at the end of a cul-de-sac and only 5.7km from the Perth CBD. Both the Inglewood café and shopping strip as well as the Morley Galleria are only a few minutes by car, as are a variety of recreational clubs and parks Such as Mt Lawley Golf Club, and Bayswater Waves Aquatic Centre.

Popular nearby schools include Chisholm Catholic College, John Forrest High School, St Peters Primary, and Embleton Primary.
