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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,460,000 (28 May 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 414 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Fremantle (last 5 years) with land size: median $4,070/m² of land (n=35). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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 414 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 $765/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 414 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.

Historic Charm, Modern Style & Breezy Elevation

SOLD BY CONNIE HANDCOCK, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS

Sitting on high in a superb position set back from the street, this character home makes the most of its breezy elevation and leafy outlooks, with all the personality and charm of a true Freo gem. White picket fencing wraps the front garden of olives, lilly pilly, lawn, and big gums, while the curving veranda takes it all in – and what a location. Knutsford's creative pocket, Monument Hill and Freo's heart are minutes away, with beautiful beaches, the river, and parklands just as close.

Tuck-pointed brick on pillowstone foundations rises above the double car port, with room to park a trailer, boat or caravan – plus undercroft storage for toys and tools. Inside, beautiful renewals meet warm jarrah floors and high-ceilinged spaces that flow outdoors at every opportunity. Two bedrooms extend down the hallway, one with a dropdown attic, ceiling fan and French doors to the veranda, while the nearby bathroom is exquisite: cast iron clawfoot bath, cool subway tiles, and a pedestal basin by the toilet.

Read the full description

The galley kitchen is complemented by shaker-style cabinetry topped in engineered marble, featuring a dishwasher and big buttercream Belling dual fuel range cooker – complete with a butler's pantry integrated into the laundry adjacent. The open-plan living is warmed by a built-in wood fire over winter, with north-facing French doors to the veranda for those refreshing Freo Doctor breezes in summer.

Tucked away to the rear, the master suite reveals a walk-through robe and ensuite with luxurious finishes: shaker-style cabinetry, mosaic marble floor with underfloor heating, and a frameless glass rainshower. French doors open out to the rear courtyard, sheltered by a shadecloth, while climbing jasmine and landscaped garden beds add some greenery to this private space. Recycled red-brick wraps around to the east, with more French doors off the kitchen, a drying court for the laundry, and access into the carport.

This is a home that captures the charming essence of Freo, offering a wonderful sense of space, modern comforts including air conditioning throughout, and a brilliant location close to all the action – with local schools an easy stroll away.
