107/178 The Esplanade, Scarborough WA 6019
Beachfront 2×1 with 180-degree ocean views | 83 sqm internal plus 25 sqm balcony | West-facing sunset outlook | Resort pool and secure parking | High strata fees
Positioned directly on the Scarborough beachfront, this unit is configured in a way that is rarely matched in the local market: two genuine bedrooms, a bathroom, and 83 square metres of internal living space with a 25 square metre balcony that frames the ocean. The west-facing aspect is oriented toward sunset light and the Indian Ocean, so the living areas are made to feel larger and more connected to the foreshore than typical apartment stock. It is best suited to downsizers and owner-occupiers wanting a lock-up-and-leave coastal base, or investors seeking rental demand from tenants who value beach access and walkability. The below-ground pool, secure parking, and visitor parking are all provided within the complex, lifting day-to-day amenity well beyond most Scarborough apartments.
Higher strata fees of roughly $2,715 per quarter may be weighed by buyers, particularly against inland alternatives. The internal condition, including new carpet and lighting, might be expected to support a premium. Exposure to wind, salt air, and tourism activity may be factored into long-term maintenance expectations when forming a price view.

Market Insight
Scarborough’s coastal positioning and proximity to Perth’s centre drive demand from renters and investors, with house rents up 9.8% and unit rents up 7.7% over the past year. The median house price is $1,257,500, having grown 12.0% annually; units sit at $762,000, up 8.9%. Houses sell in a median 16 days, with 250 sales in the year to December 2025. Gross yields are 3.69% for houses and up to 4.95% for units. Ongoing development and lifestyle appeal support future growth. The key constraint is affordability: entry prices above $1.25 million for houses and substantial unit values may limit broader buyer participation.
