6/9 Orleans Street, Spearwood WA 6163

Spacious 2×2 unit | large alfresco uncommon for apartment | stable owner-occupier building | strong walk-to-retail location This unit offers a floor plan and outdoor space that is genuinely rare for a 2-bedroom apartment in this price band, with the covered alfresco and balcony functioning almost like a small courtyard. The 2016 build, secure complex, and study nook make it a strong option for a downsizer or professional who values indoor-outdoor flow over a house yard. The rental estimate near $715 per week and mid-5% yield potential are solid, but the real edge is the building’s stable owner-occupier tenure—averaging over six years—which suggests good livability and limited turnover risk. The main cost to weigh is the $1,015 quarterly strata, which is not excessive for a complex of this age but does compress net return for an investor. No bushfire, flood, or heritage overlays were flagged, so planning risk is low. The property sits in a convenient Spearwood pocket with easy access to Fremantle and the coast, which supports both resale demand and rental appeal. For a buyer, this is a low-maintenance hold that suits either occupation or long-term rental, provided the purchase price stays within the early $700s range to preserve the yield advantage.
