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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,175,000 (16 Jan 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 1,210 m² against a 244 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Gooseberry Hill (last 5 years) with land size: median $586/m² of land (n=119). 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 1,210 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 $698/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 1,210 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.

Spacious Family Home in Sought-After Gooseberry Hill

Offered to the market for the first time, this beautifully preserved late mid-century residence with strong Scandinavian modernist influence is a rare and captivating Hills offering. Designed and built in 1975, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom brick and tile residence is tucked away in a prime, secluded pocket of Gooseberry Hill, where architecture, landscape and lifestyle are seamlessly connected.

Set on a generous 1,210sqm elevated block, the home captures picturesque valley views across native bushland and the national park, creating an authentic Hills lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty, abundant birdlife and visiting wildlife.

The charming home offers a practical layout with multiple living areas suited to family living and entertaining. An open-plan kitchen, meals and living area forms a warm and welcoming central zone, flowing to outdoor entertaining spaces and the north-facing garden. A separate dining room and family living area, featuring a Norwegian Jøtul slow-combustion wood fire, provides additional space for relaxation and connection. Large windows throughout flood the interior with natural light and frame leafy garden outlooks, inviting the outdoors in.

Read the full description

The well-appointed kitchen offers gas hotplates, electric oven, dishwasher, double sink, generous storage, an expansive breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry, making it both functional and inviting.

Accommodation is generous and thoughtfully considered. The king-sized main bedroom is privately positioned and includes walk-in robes and an ensuite. A second bedroom with its own ensuite and built-in robes is ideal for guests or family members, while two further bedrooms with built-in robes are serviced by a central family bathroom.

Outdoors, the property truly shines. The expansive yard has been cleverly designed to balance open lawn areas for children with low-maintenance native gardens. The terraced below-ground saltwater swimming pool overlooks the gardens and valley beyond, complemented by multiple outdoor entertaining areas ideal for gatherings or quiet relaxation. A studio offers the perfect home office, gym or creative retreat, adding further versatility. Automatic reticulated landscaped gardens feature lawn areas, rose gardens, vegetable beds, wildflowers and a selection of established fruit trees, creating a peaceful and private sanctuary.

Original design features have been lovingly maintained throughout the home, including timber kitchen cabinets, open shelves, two slow-combustion wood fires, reinforcing the home's warmth, authenticity and enduring mid-century appeal. While the home already shines with character and potential, a fresh coat of paint and new carpet would further enhance its appeal.

Located within the Gooseberry Hill Primary School catchment and just minutes from Gooseberry Hill Village, Kalamunda amenities, nature trails and Bickley Valley wineries, this tightly held location offers the best of Hills living, all within 30 minutes of Perth CBD and 15 minutes from the airport.
