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

Why this property?

  • 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.

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 908 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 908 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.

Listing material

Timeless Coastal Elegance

A masterclass in architectural brilliance beckons in the form of this exquisitely-renovated 4 bedroom 4 bathroom two-storey home with a separate rear studio.

Originally built in the early-1970s and perched on a vast elevated block, the property is perfectly oriented to capture northern sunlight and faces the lush Kapinara Primary School grounds across the road, within a quiet and leafy locale.

This unique home, designed by renowned architect David Hartree, melds timeless charm with contemporary sophistication, standing as a beacon of coastal elegance and innovative design - at the same time promising unparalleled comfort and breathtaking ocean views from both of its levels.

Read the full description

A secure gated entrance to the residence reveals the most tranquil of front gardens, where a lovely Koi pond adds to the serenity that is felt almost immediately. Overlooking it all is a large entertainment deck with its own reflection pond, wraparound access to the front balcony terrace (with an aspect over the school) and plenty of space to sit and relax, amidst the surrounding treetops.

The statement entry foyer sets the scene for the excellence that lies within. Beyond it, a spacious open-plan family, dining and kitchen area boasts a unique combination of durable quartzite bench tops and luxe travertine finishes, a breakfast bar, an integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer combination, a Bosch range hood, a Miele five-burner gas cooktop, double Bosch ovens and an integrated Bosch dishwasher.

At the front of the house, a huge front lounge/living room enjoys a tree-lined sea vista from within, as well as a gas log fireplace with classy travertine finishes to keep with theme. There is custom built-in storage here too, as well as under-stair storage and a connecting study - or storeroom - that is brilliant in its versatility.

Off the foyer, a generous second bedroom has endless built-in-wardrobe storage, plus a fully-tiled dual-vanity luxury ensuite bathroom that is ideal for guests.

With its epic proportions, the third bedroom (with built-in robes) is privately located in its own wing of the house and allows for separation to have its own computer nook or mini-lounge area. It all sits opposite a fully-tiled third bathroom and a fully-tiled powder room that are separate from, yet adjacent to, one another.

The laundry off the family room is graced by sleek stone bench tops and an over-sized walk-in linen press. For floor-plan functionality, it sits right away from any of the other bedrooms or wet areas.

Double doors from the main living zone extend entertaining out to a secluded backyard setting with lawn, an edible vegetable garden, a covered pergola/patio for those special occasions and a shimmering below-ground solar-heated swimming pool - neighboured by a raised poolside deck.

Wake up to mesmerising ocean views from the comfort of your own bed upstairs, within the deluxe master suite. The massive main bedroom also plays host to a mammoth walk-in dressing room with custom storage and hanging space, as well as an expansive fully-tiled ensuite - highlighted by travertine tiles, double ceiling-mounted rain showers, a free-standing bathtub and twin "his and hers" marble vanities.

A huge parents' retreat next to the master wing doubles as a flexible nursery area with access out onto a magical sunrise and sunset balcony deck, looking out to the trees and crystal-clear Indian Ocean waters. What an awe-inspiring backdrop.

The wildcard in the floor plan though is the separate back studio, doubling as a fourth-bedroom suite or teenager's retreat with polished concrete floors, a kitchenette, a built-in office desk, a built-in double robe and its own fully-tiled ensuite/fourth bathroom with elegant gold tapware and feature copper wall tiles. With its own private entrance, this would also make for an ideal Airbnb or short-stay-accommodation option.

In terms of parking for a boat, caravan, trailer or multiple cars, the side driveway has plenty of it beyond remote-controlled double gates - leading to a side gate to directly access the yard. The main driveway meets a remote-controlled double lock-up garage that sits under the house itself.

Walk to a stretch of stunning beaches (as well as the Floreat Dog Beach) from here, as well as a plethora of picturesque local parklands, bus stops, the Wembley Downs Tennis Club, the Wembley Golf Course and Holy Spirit Primary School. The Ocean Village and Empire Village Shopping Centres, exceptional community sporting facilities, Hale School, Churchlands Senior High School, Newman College, other renowned private schools, the revamped Scarborough Beach foreshore, trendy restaurants, awe-inspiring Bold Park, major shopping centres (including the new-and-improved Karrinyup precinct) and much more are merely minutes from your front doorstep too.

Experience the pinnacle of coastal living right here, within your own sanctuary of space, style and substance. Let those sensual sea breezes filter in, from every single angle!
