152 Kent Street, Rockingham WA 6168

Large 1018sqm block near beach | 3-bedroom 1960s house with low 11% site coverage | Rockingham street with strong owner-occupier demand and 75% home ownership. This property offers a rare configuration advantage for a buyer seeking redevelopment or renovation upside: the 1018-square-metre lot with only 11 percent building coverage leaves substantial room for extension, subdivision potential, or a new dwelling. The street profile shows 75 percent owner-occupiers and a median price of $750,000, indicating stable, long-term demand rather than speculative turnover. The house itself is a straightforward 1967 build with three bedrooms and one bathroom, best suited to a buyer who values location over immediate condition and is prepared to invest in upgrades or a future project. The primary risk is the current asking price, which sits well above the recent comparable sale of 154 Kent Street at $1,000,000 for a similar lot and slightly larger floor area. This pricing gap suggests the seller may have aspirational expectations, and a buyer should approach negotiations with strong comparable evidence. The bushfire overlay present on the nearby property is a due diligence point, though no flood or heritage constraints are apparent. The opportunity lies in the block’s size and low coverage, which give a buyer rare flexibility in a beachside suburb with established amenity and low turnover.
