Rare in both its size and its status as one of the few remaining Swanbourne super blocks, this classic quarter-acre property is ideally positioned on one of the area’s most sought-after streets. It offers a unique opportunity to own two homes on a single title, doubling the potential rental income for the astute investor.
Options abound - live in one residence and lease out the other or clear the site to build your dream coastal family home. The zoning allows for a single-residential masterpiece if that’s your vision. Alternatively, you could add modern touches through creative renovations, creating one larger house suited for multi-generational living.
Whatever path you choose, you’ll inherit a front 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home with its own driveway, along with a more substantial rear 4x2 two-storey home with its own parking and a spacious backyard. Both homes feature separate living areas, dining spaces, kitchens and laundries, and are solid enough to be lived in or rented out immediately.
Embrace the best of the Western Suburbs with this exceptional offering. Allen Park precinct is mere minutes away where a vibrant community atmosphere is alive and well with its quintessential “neighbourhood” tennis, footy and rugby clubs. A leisurely stroll will find you at The Shorehouse overlooking the stunning Swanbourne Beach. Top-tier schools, trendy coastal cafes and restaurants are also all within easy reach.
When it comes to opportunity and location, this very unique property is pure gold!

With a little over 20 years of experience as a real estate agent and now owner and licensee of Hub Residential, I feel my knowledge of real estate in the Western Suburbs of Perth is expansive.
But my knowledge extends way beyond the real estate realm as a long-term resident in the area myself. All 3 of my adult sons schooled in the area and were active sporting members within the community. Allen Park played a large part in our family’s Sunday mornings and there are few parks we can drive by that the boys didn’t play cricket at. Personally, I continue to play tennis at Allen Park and I also enjoy a round of golf with friends at Cottesloe Golf Club. In essence, I love the area.
When it comes to real estate, my goal is simple: to deliver you the best result there is in the market with world class service without the usual real estate hullabaloo and to eliminate the stress of buying and selling. With the knowledge I have gathered over the years, (and believe me I’ve seen almost all the scenarios there is to see in residential real estate), my goal is to help guide you through the process. If you’re unsure about anything whatsoever, just ask.
I like to think that the long-term relationships I have with past clients and residents within the western suburbs community, are testimony to my honesty and integrity when doing business.
