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

Why this property?

  • CalculationLand 5,109 m² against a 456 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Parkerville (last 5 years) with land size: median $362/m² of land (n=88). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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 5,109 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 $649/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 5,109 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.

The Escape You'll Never Want to Leave!

Tucked away in a breathtaking pocket of the Perth hills and resting on approximately 1.25 acres of wonder, this remarkable lifestyle estate is where timeless character meets the beauty of nature in full flight.

With the meandering Jane Brook running serenely through the land - crossed by three charming bridges that lead you to the heart of the home - this is more than just a property, it's a private sanctuary. Bordering public native bushland, the historic bridle path, a cycle track, the site of the old rail line and enveloped by towering trees and birdsong - think magpies, kookaburras, ducks and more, this enchanting retreat captures the very soul of hills living.

The centrepiece, despite being nestled at the back corner of the block, is a spacious 5 bedroom 3 bathroom two-storey, solar-passive residence with a warm Federation heart that beats through antique Jarrah windows and frames, French panes, decorative ceiling roses, detailed cornices and skirting boards. With flexible living zones throughout, it caters effortlessly to multi-generational families, creatives, hobbyists or those who simply love space.

Read the full description

Downstairs, a spacious theatre room off the tiled entry foyer is fully-equipped with a projector and screen for the ultimate cinema-style experience. It is also warmed by a wood-combustion fireplace and benefits from splendid leafy window views, just like most rooms in the house. On the other side of the foyer sits a commodious "guest" bedroom suite - or an alternative ground-level master - with wall-to-wall built-in wardrobes and an intimate ensuite/third bathroom.

Timeless slate floor tiles highlight a central open-plan family, dining and kitchen area that can be set up any which way you like and even leaves space for casual meals, if need be. Here, stylish light fittings, two walk-in pantries, original brickwork, quality tapware, an island breakfast bar and sparkling granite bench tops complemented a pleasant garden outlook, as well as a Bosch Induction cooktop, stainless-steel double ovens and a commercial-grade Zanussi stainless-steel dishwasher.

The separate sleeping quarters feature a laundry with a separate toilet and external access for drying, a hallway storage cupboard, a light and bright main family bathroom with a walk-in shower and powder vanity, large third and fourth bedrooms with built-in double robes and a generous games room that links to a glorious atrium.

Upstairs, a wide corridor with gleaming Jarrah floorboards at the top of a sublime Jarrah staircase leads to more minor bedrooms with built-in double robes. An enormous fifth bedroom with a ceiling fan and built-in robes flows out on to a delightful balcony deck with a vista across the creek and treetops.

There is also a huge home office, study or library up here that is large enough to essentially be all three - complete with a built-in Jarrah desk, or three-person workstation. The piece de resistance though is a monstrous master suite with its own integrated parents' retreat, ceiling fan, picture rails, over-size walk-in robe and spacious ensuite - with a shower, a claw-foot bathtub, bidet, toilet and twin "his and hers" timber-vanity basins. Three sets of double French doors capture the best of the north-facing and west-facing aspects here, as well as allowing access out to the wraparound balcony deck that captures those all-important sea breezes, filtering in from the west.

Outside, nature and luxury collide. Stroll through citrus gardens and exotic fruit trees, past the grand greenhouse at the gated entry and arrive at the resort-style swimming-pool oasis - shimmering under floodlights, complete with a cascading rock waterfall. Entertain in style under the adjacent patio, featuring a gas-bottle barbecue, stainless-steel finishes, sleek granite bench tops and twin troughs - or take the celebration to the peaceful backyard gazebo for a moment of calm, amidst the sounds of running water.

Practicality is also front of mind, with a remote-controlled five-car garage setup (four-car lock-up + single lock-up, separated by a double carport), a storage lean-to, extra paved parking space and even a classic Yellowtail Southern Cross windmill adding some nostalgia and country-style flair. Don't forget the lawn areas for play, the mulberry tree for memories and the incredible sense of privacy that's impossible to replicate.

When it comes to location, this hidden haven feels a world away - yet it's surprisingly well connected. In just five minutes, you'll find yourself in the beating heart of Mundaring for all your shopping, cafés and everyday essentials. The beloved Parkerville Tavern is just down the road for a Sunday session, while Parkerville Primary School, the Silver Tree Steiner School and Mundaring Christian College are all close by for growing families.

Need to commute or head further afield? Midland is just 15 minutes away, Perth Airport is an easy 25-minute drive and both the city and the stunning Swan Valley are effortlessly accessible via nearby arterial roads.

This is not only a family home. It's a lifestyle, a legacy and an extraordinary escape from the everyday!
