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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,710,100 (13 Apr 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 762 m² against a 175 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Murdoch (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,075/m² of land (n=19). 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 762 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 $750/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 762 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.

FAMILY PARADISE WITH POOL, MONKEY BARS, AND SPACE FOR KIDS TO PLAY IN TIGHTLY HELD MURDOCH

Murdoch is one of those suburbs where homes rarely change hands. Families move here for the schools, the convenience, and the lifestyle, and they tend to stay for decades. 5 Burdett Retreat is a wonderful example of why.

Beautifully maintained, freshly painted, and fitted with new lighting throughout, the home presents exceptionally and is ready to move straight into. The layout is spacious, versatile, and designed for vibrant family living, offering multiple living zones so everyone has room to spread out, relax, and come together.

At the heart of the home sits a generous open plan dining and living area that flows through to the kitchen and adjoining family activity or games room, creating a natural hub for everyday life. From busy weekday mornings to relaxed evenings at home, this central space makes family living feel effortless.

Read the full description

Outside is where the home really shines.

The backyard has been thoughtfully set up to create the ultimate family playground. A huge alfresco entertaining area overlooks the sparkling below ground pool, providing the perfect setting for summer barbecues, birthday parties, and long afternoons spent entertaining while the kids splash and play nearby.

Right beside the pool sits a generous lawned area where kids can jump straight out of the water and onto the grass to dry off in the sun, without burning their feet. It is a simple but brilliant feature that makes the outdoor space feel both practical and fun for family living.

The lawn also connects to a fantastic play zone complete with Funky Monkey Bars and a trampoline, both of which can remain with the property if the buyers wish. It is an instant backyard adventure park that will keep kids active and entertained for hours.

There is also a charming children's courtyard play area featuring a sand pit surrounded by soft lawn and adjustable shade sails. The sails provide welcome sun protection and flexibility throughout the day, while the space itself is positioned perfectly so it can be viewed directly from the kitchen window. For many parents, being able to keep an eye on the kids while preparing meals or moving around the kitchen is a feature high on the wish list.

Altogether, the outdoor spaces create a genuine family paradise, blending entertaining, relaxation, and play zones in a way that makes everyday living both easy and enjoyable.

Inside, the home offers four bedrooms along with a selection of versatile living areas that can easily accommodate working from home, study spaces for the kids, or additional sitting areas depending on your needs. The main bedroom enjoys its own walk-in robe and ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms are well positioned for privacy and family practicality.

Move straight in and enjoy the home exactly as it is today, with plenty of exciting potential to update and personalise over time, adding further value while creating a space that truly reflects your own style.

Murdoch remains one of Perth's most tightly held suburbs, prized for its proximity to major hospitals, Murdoch University, transport, and excellent schooling options. Many buyers are also pleasantly surprised to discover that the suburb sits within the Applecross Senior High School catchment, alongside Melville Senior High School, and offers a choice of three highly regarded local primary schools: Winthrop Primary School, Bateman Primary School, and Kardinya Primary School.

Whether you are searching for a spacious family home, a well located investment, or a property with room to add value, this is an opportunity not to miss.

Inspection will impress.
