47 Gifford Road Dunsborough WA 6281

Coastal modern on 805sqm | Bushfire overlay present | Studio + workshop | Strong capital growth since 2020 The property’s configuration as a four-bedroom, three-bathroom coastal modern home on an 805sqm parcel in Dunsborough is competitively rare for buyers seeking both space and a turnkey finish. The handcrafted timber floors, integrated smart security, Daikin air conditioning, and app-enabled fireplace reduce the need for immediate capital outlay, which strengthens a buyer’s negotiating position against newer or less finished stock. The large rear studio and workshop add functional flexibility for remote work, hobbies, or guest accommodation—features that typically command a premium in this market. The property is best suited to a family or professional couple who value immediate occupancy, low maintenance, and a location with reliable NBN and 4G coverage, without needing to renovate. The primary risk is the bushfire overlay, which may impose stricter building and insurance requirements and could affect future resale liquidity to risk-averse buyers. The heritage overlay adds another layer of approval complexity for any structural changes, limiting renovation upside. On the opportunity side, the property’s capital growth trajectory—from $525,000 in 2016 to $1.675 million in 2020—demonstrates strong market momentum in this pocket of Dunsborough, and the current listing cycle suggests continued demand. The rental yield is low at 1.4%, so this is best held as a primary residence or long-term hold rather than a short-term income play.
