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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,300,000 (5 Dec 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 4,148 m² against a 240 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Mundaring (last 5 years) with land size: median $277/m² of land (n=89). 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.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

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 4,148 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 4,148 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.

Absolute Magic In Mundaring

Neat as a pin, a joy to live in, and with room to grow and play, this is the quintessential family home. And now it's your turn to continue the legacy of the previous owners who have owned it - and loved it - since it was built back in 1990. A spacious 4 bedroom home set on a sprawling 4,148sqm block, it has everything you need to lead a vibrant outdoor lifestyle while also enjoying all the creature comforts you'd expect to find in your ultimate home - plus a couple of extras! Somewhere at the top of the list of everyone's favourite features is the saltwater pool, which is an inviting prospect as Summer approaches. Overlooking it is the big, covered alfresco entertaining area, which comes complete with a TV and ceiling fans. Swim a few laps every morning, soak up the last of the rays from the setting sun each evening, host casual BBQs and share a few drinks with friends on the weekends, or go all out and celebrate birthdays and other milestone events with your favourite folk at every opportunity. This is the place to do it all.

Another drawcard here is the established garden which includes veggie beds and a range of fruit trees. Combine it all with the well equipped kitchen and you've got a match made in heaven. The 'patch to plate' concept will become part of everyday life and will please resident foodies and green thumbs alike. The family room in the heart of the home, with its cosy wood burning stove and big bay window seat, adds to the rustic yet luxe vibes. As does the Parents' wing of the house, which incorporates the main bedroom with its walk through wardrobe, the spacious ensuite, an additional lounge room, and the versatile study. The 3 other bedrooms are situated in the Junior wing and all include built-in wardrobes, plush carpeting underfoot, and large windows. Air conditioning units and ceiling fans throughout are a welcome addition, while solar panels help offset the cost of utilities. Simply move in and get to living!

Features include:

With so much on offer here you'd be forgiven for thinking everything is already done and as close to perfection as it could be. Because, actually, you'd be right. Yet there's still scope for you to make changes and add your own touches to suit your family's lifestyle and evolving needs. Perhaps some more outbuildings such as a greenhouse. Maybe a granny flat as an independent living option for extended family. Or some elements of pure fun and recreation such as a sauna, music or art studio, or some play structures for the kids. In the meantime, simply enjoy the current features such as veggie patches and garden beds, plentiful parking for vehicles of all kinds, and the workshops and sheds. Or discover local destinations and activities; explore the nearby Heritage Trail, get competitive at the arena or sports club, take littlies to play at Sculpture Park, catch up with friends at the Tav, join the library, or go bushwalking. The possibilities are endless.

Idyllic doesn't even cover it.
