36 Chapman Road, Bentley WA 6102

4 bed home | Bentley | 341sqm | 2 days on market | strong rental yield This property is competitively positioned as a full-sized 4-bedroom house in a suburb where the median sits at $840,000 and units dominate the lower end. The asking range just above that median suggests the vendor is pricing realistically from the start, and with only 2 days on market, there is no stale listing fatigue to negotiate around. The 341sqm land size is modest but workable for a buyer wanting a detached home in an inner suburb with a 64% renter profile, meaning future demand is underpinned by both owner-occupiers and investors. The comparable street evidence shows a similar 4x2x2 on Chapman Rd sold for $770,000 after 20 years of ownership, achieving 5.48% annual growth, while rental yields on the street have run as high as 8.67% for smaller units and 5.54% for a house of this type. This property suits a buyer who values immediate livability in a high-demand corridor and is willing to accept a smaller block in exchange for price accessibility. The primary risk is that the asking range sits above the suburb median and above the $770,000 sale of a comparable house on the same street, meaning the vendor may be testing the upper boundary of buyer tolerance. The 341sqm block limits future subdivision or significant extension potential, which reduces its appeal to developers or buyers seeking land-banking upside. However, the opportunity lies in the rental yield potential: if purchased in the high $800,000s and achieving $820 per week in rent as the comparable suggests, the gross yield would sit around 4.9%, which is solid for a detached house in this price bracket. The suburb’s 40% of residents having lived there over 10 years indicates stable community tenure, reducing vacancy risk for an investor-occupier hybrid buyer.
