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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 779 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in City Beach (last 5 years) with land size: median $4,348/m² of land (n=31). 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.

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 779 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 $1,275/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 779 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.

SOUTH CITY BEACH WATERFRONT | ONE OF THE BIGGEST LANDHOLDINGS | LAST OF THE ORIGINAL BEACH SHACKS

NOW HIGH $4M's

*PRICED TO EFFECT AN IMMEDIATE SALE PRIOR TO XMAS!

THE LOCATION

Read the full description

South City Beach is wider Perth City's most exclusive beachfront enclave. A small coastal village of some 250 homes nestled in the dunes, ocean side of West Coast Highway and cocooned against the shoreline by the Swanbourne army reserve, Cottesloe Golf Course, Bold Park Bushlands and the iconic beachfront City beach football ovals, which are the finish line of the City to Surf. There is finite property here. The closest and most central beach to the heart of Perth City and the St. Georges Terrace engine room of the state's economy. Of the 250 homes here, there are only 26 homes oceanside of Branksome Gardens with rear gates directly onto the dunes. Most are now redeveloped with luxury new residences. There are very few blank canvases like this left. Gaze out to the horizon and be forever in touch with the many moods of the day. Fit in a morning swim before your first appointment even when you are running late. Catch up with friends at the beachfront cafes for a meal or a drink. Walk your dog along the long romantic untouched shoreline or stroll through the springtime wildflower wonderland in Bold Park A-class bush reserve.

THE HOME

The last of the original beach shacks oceanside of Branksome Gardens. This home has been in the long ownership of an old time South City beach family who have brought up four kids here and entertained their grandchildren. This family grew up with "South City" in their veins! It is now time for generational changes and to hand this loving home on to the next owners to create loving chapters and memories for their own families. This place has "good juju" - beautiful piece of spirit country for you to now secure as your happy place. It is very original, its full of character, it's a renovator's delight. It's being sold "as is". It's also a fantastic site for your new home. At 779sqm it is also one of the biggest sites on the Branksome waterfront strip - where many of the other lots are in the 600sqms.

THE POTENTIAL

Design plans for your families forever dream home here. Imagine your lounge room and kitchen with sweeping views out across the ocean to Rottnest beyond. Flowing out to the deck in summer. Staying warm by the fire in winter as you watch the storms roll in. Alternately, live a castaway beach shack existence in this truly block value seaside cottage which is rich with untold stories and nostalgia.

Either way, your new home's a back garden will open on to the rear dunes and parkland so that your kids can flow out into this coastal wonderland and grow up fit, healthy, sun kissed and happy. It's hard to turn back from a life amongst the ever-present sound of crashing waves against the shoreline and the perfumed breeze of the coastal dune vegetation. These things become part of you.

Life is good here...welcome to South City Beach.
