2/2 Freshwater Parade, Claremont WA 6010
Ground-floor mid-century | 108.5sqm internal rarity | 50m to Claremont Quarter | Tightly held group of eight
This unit presents a compelling proposition due to its unusually large internal living area for an apartment, a configuration increasingly rare in the suburb. Its ground-floor position with abundant light and recent high-quality renovations remove immediate capital demands, positioning it for an owner-occupier seeking low-maintenance, spacious living in a walkable prime location. The tightly held, small strata group suggests a stable ownership base, which is preferable for long-term holding.
Decision hinges on the strata’s capital health for a 1965 building, despite recent renovations. The quarterly levy is moderate, but a specialist inspection must verify that the reserve fund adequately covers future major works. For a buyer, the commercial logic is the scarcity premium of its size and position; it is a hold-for-growth property, not a yield play. Proceed with an offer conditional on a strata report, targeting a discount to the estimated value that reflects the building’s age.
Recent comparable sales nearby include 3/24 Freshwater Parade, Claremont, a 2 bed, 1 bath unit. While the exact sale price is unspecified, its presence confirms active demand in this immediate precinct. The subject property’s significantly larger internal area and recent renovation likely command a substantial premium over such standard stock.

Insight: Claremont WA 6010
Claremont is a premium riverside suburb with a clear market hierarchy, where established family homes command significant premiums over more accessible apartments. Demand is driven by affluent owner-occupiers seeking its prime location and lifestyle, supported by high household incomes. The market is characterised by strong capital growth, particularly for houses, and exceptionally tight selling conditions with properties transacting rapidly. Future growth is underpinned by sustained high demand against consistently low inventory, though this supply constraint also presents a key market risk.
