2A Eileen Street, Cottesloe WA 6011

ocean-view prestige house | three beds four baths on 180sqm | over 300sqm internal living | Cottesloe beach proximity The property is positioned as a rare compact-lot luxury house in a primo Cottesloe coastal strip, where the 300-plus square metres of internal volume across two designer kitchens on a 180sqm footprint is a deliberate vertical play rather than a limitation. For the buyer seeking immediate ocean-adjacent living with a green title and low land upkeep, this configuration offers a competitive edge over larger holdings that demand more capital for the same views. It serves best the discerning occupant who values interior scale and finish over garden space, and who is prepared to transact in a premium suburb where such infill offerings are scarce. The key risk sits in the energy efficiency rating of zero out of ten, which for a 2001 build suggests either poor thermal envelope design or systemic compliance gaps that may cost materially to rectify under tightening standards. The compact land also sets a hard ceiling on lateral expansion, and the special development zoning could impose overlay constraints on significant alterations. Opportunity lies in potential value uplift from targeted energy retrofitting, which would align the internal luxury with modern performance expectations. Hold this property for coastal lifestyle immediacy or upgrade its building fabric to secure long-term capital resilience.
