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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $750,000 (28 Aug 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 2,235 m² against a 208 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in York (last 5 years) with land size: median $278/m² of land (n=44). 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 2,235 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 $518/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 2,235 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.

Character, Charm & Modern Comfort on a Generous Block

The Original York Bakery - Overflowing with Charm, Character, and Space

The ovens are off, but the dough is rising - and this is one you knead to see! Brimming with history and unique charm, 29 Pelham Street presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure a large character home on a generously sized 2,232 SQM block in the heart of York.

Originally operating as York's bakery, this 1890-built home showcases striking Flemish bond brickwork, tall ceilings, wide jarrah floorboards, original fireplaces, and spacious proportions throughout. With five bedrooms-three of which are oversized and adaptable as additional living areas or work-from-home zones-this residence offers exceptional flexibility for families, creatives, and lifestyle seekers alike.

Read the full description

Step through the gracious formal entry and into a large lounge room, complete with a slow combustion fireplace, exposed brickwork, and French doors that open to the verandah-creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and highlighting the home's timeless elegance.

The rear of the home houses a beautiful farmhouse-style kitchen and dining space, where heritage charm meets modern function. Character stone feature walls, shaker cabinetry, timber benchtops, a freestanding cooker, butler's sink, and walk-in pantry set the tone, while the space is large enough to double as an informal living room. A special highlight is the small exposed stone section near the French doors, leading out to a grapevine-draped alfresco with stone features-a courtyard that feels like a touch of Europe in the WA countryside.

Both the bathroom and laundry are updated in a soft, modern palette, and the layout includes dedicated study or storage rooms, ceiling fans, and reverse cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort. Solar panels help keep your bills low, and the block is well fenced for pets.

Outside, you'll find blooming gardens, raised veggie beds, fruit trees, a chicken coop, and composting area, plus a rustic old-style shed, a shipping container (included in the sale), and a large powered Colorbond workshop with a shaded patio area-ideal for entertaining, tinkering, or hobbies.

Additional features include:

• Five spacious rooms, ideal for bedrooms, study zones or additional living.

• Farmhouse kitchen with freestanding oven, butler's sink, and walk-in pantry.

• French doors from kitchen/dining to brick-paved grapevine alfresco.

• Formal lounge with woodfire and heritage charm.

• Renovated bathroom and laundry.

• High ceilings, jarrah flooring, original fireplaces.

• Solar panels, reverse cycle air conditioning, and ceiling fans.

• Multiple open parking spaces.

• Expansive gardens, veggie beds, fruit trees, and compost area.

• Powered shed/workshop with covered patio seating.

The house is in close proximity to a range of amenities and natural attractions:

• 800 m to York IGA and Town Centre.

• 900 m to Avon River.

• 2.5 km to Mount Bakewell.

• 3.9 km to Mount Brown Picnic & BBQ Area.

• 4.6 km to York District High School.

• 8.3 km to York WA Golf Club.

Council Rates 24/25 $2295.01

The R10/30 zoning in Western Australia is a dual-density residential code. It means the property can be developed at the lower R10 density (typically one dwelling per 1,000m²) by default, but may be eligible for development at the higher R30 density. Accessing the R30 potential usually requires council approval and compliance with specific design or location-based requirements under the local planning scheme.

This is an amazing opportunity to secure a rare, large character home with soul, space, and flexibility in one of WA's most charming historic towns. Once the heart of York's daily bread, this original bakery has been lovingly transformed into a warm, inviting home - kneaded over time into something truly special. The ovens may be off, but the charm is freshly baked, and the lifestyle on offer is anything but half-baked. Don't miss your slice of York - this one's ready to rise again.
