216 Forrest Beach Road, Wonnerup WA 6280

Renovated dream home | bushfire and flood overlays | rural lifestyle near beach | large land holding. The decision to buy this property turns on the value of new construction in a bushfire and flood overlay zone. Those overlays impose higher insurance premiums and stricter building standards, which directly raise holding costs—expect insurance to run 30–50% above a non-overlay home. Against that, the 2.2-hectare parcel with a near-new 247 m² house is a rare combination near Forrest Beach, offering lifestyle amenity—plunge pool, outdoor kitchen, solar and rainwater systems—that can reduce utility bills and support self-sufficient living. This is a hold-and-enjoy property, not a flip. From a buying position, the house competes on scarcity: a 2019 build on 5.5 acres within walking distance to beach access is uncommon in this market. The open-plan layout with dual alfresco zones, walk-in robes, and separate entrance for a fourth bedroom suits families or multi-generational households who value space and privacy. The strongest fit is a buyer seeking a long-term coastal retreat with low-maintenance modern finishes and serious land for horses, gardens, or future subdivision potential under local planning rules.
