8/26-28 Metro Parade, Mawson Lakes SA 5095

2-bedroom apartment | Mawson Lakes | 2009 build | 93sqm internal | balcony and ducted cooling | owner-majority complex This property offers a rare combination of size and position in Mawson Lakes. At 93 square metres internal, it is significantly larger than the typical two-bedroom apartment in the suburb, where the median unit is 68 square metres. The 2009 build means modern construction standards and lower maintenance expectations. The complex is 85 percent owner-occupied, which typically supports better building care and quieter living conditions. Ducted cooling and heating, a balcony, and a secure garage add everyday liveability. This unit suits a buyer who wants a genuine home rather than an investment box, and who values space and comfort over a premium address. The main risk is the lack of recent comparable sales data and any strata report in available information. Without knowing sinking fund balances or special levy history, a buyer must make the offer conditional on a full strata inspection. The lot size of 13 square metres is effectively the footprint of the building, not usable land, so there is no land-value upside here. The rental range of $510 to $595 per week suggests a gross yield of roughly 4.5 to 5 percent, which is acceptable but not exceptional for Mawson Lakes. The suburb median apartment price of $507,500 means this listing sits above the local average, so price negotiation room should be tested. Hold this property as a long-term owner-occupied home where the size and quality of the internal space will retain appeal.
