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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,640,000 (18 Dec 2024).(Recorded sale)

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. 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 $844/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.”

Read more

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.

  • 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 Caporn Young Estate Agents Fremantle

Best in Modern Australian Style

This recently completed, double-storey residence features a captivating blend of natural textures, earthy tones, and seamless spatial flow, embodying quintessential modern Australian style. Extra-high sliding doors and ceilings optimize warm northern light to the open-plan living and alfresco zones, while bespoke custom features & leading-edge technology contribute to the home's exceptional comfort.

A chic aesthetic of calming and complementary hues brings a Zen-like appeal to the interior of this enigmatic property. Large-set, stone grey porcelain floor tiles, marble effect stone bench tops & pops of textured dark wood veneer are continuous style themes throughout the mix.

On the ground floor, the spacious open-plan living, kitchen, and dining are offset by two generous feature walls clad in hues of textured flax & bark linen wallpapers - balancing a full wall of sliding doors, flanked in dreamy sheer linen drapes.

Read the full description

The designer kitchen, appointed with quality Fisher & Paykel appliances - including a 4-burner induction stove, dishwasher, and wall-mounted microwave/oven combo, is anchored by a vast stone waterfall edge island bench fitted with brushed nickel tapware and a gunmetal grey sink.

Ample dark timber veneer and solid grey cabinetry offset more marble effect stone, continued through the countertops and splashback wall.

Huge, commercial-grade sliding doors reveal a sunny, north-facing alfresco and garden courtyard, where a state-of-the-art Ziegler & Brown portable Grand Turbo 6-burner barbecue & cart (using award-winning Radiant Quartz Technology), includes hotplates, teppanyaki plate and a burner plus the addition of a basin with pull out spray sink mixer tap.

Consideration was applied to all garden plants & hedges to ensure low maintenance and natural screening over time – particularly from ornamental pears and magnolia trees that frame the fence line.

Natural attention is drawn to a stunning ergonomic wall unit that sits beneath a bespoke open-tread staircase; handmade using Victorian ash timber and glass balustrading, which leads to an upper-floor sanctuary.

From the landing, a sunny lounge room and study nook separate the grand master suite from the remaining secondary bedrooms. Plush loop pile, natural carpet furnishes this floor, flanked by pure white doors & jet-black hardware, along with crisp white plantation shutters.

Overlooking the street below, the master bedroom includes ceiling-suspended modern bedside lamps, a generous walk-in robe, and a spa-inspired ensuite with walk-in rain shower, Kit Kat tiles, and dark timber veneer cabinetry.

Privacy and light have been maximized via discreet letterbox windows in the secondary bedrooms, each with built-in robes and access to a huge bathroom with a deep, contemporary tub and opulently large, frameless walk-in shower.

Other features include a chic, decorative wallpapered powder room (ground) and adjoining external access laundry, exposed aggregate paving and driveway, an oversized double automatic garage with shopper's entry, zoned & ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, LED downlighting, professionally landscaped reticulated gardens, a Dahua video doorbell system & secure parcel drop box.

With desirable street elevation, proximity to schools, grocers, and open parklands, and access to a charming shopping village at the end of the street, this home represents thoughtful luxurious family living.
