Under offer at $669k; 2007 villa with 3 bed, 2 bath on 282m²; rental yield around $630pw; proximity to the inlet and CBD draws quick interest. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom villa, built in 2007 on a compact 282m² strata lot with 140m² under main roof and a single carport, offers a low-maintenance setup in a quiet end position within a small group of three. The practical layout features a separate front lounge for flexible living, neutral finishes, and light-filled spaces suitable for downsizers, first-home buyers seeking affordability, or investors targeting solid rental returns around $630 weekly. Located near Leschenault Inlet for recreation and about 5km from Bunbury CBD for daily conveniences, it appeals to those prioritizing walkable access to water views and urban amenities without isolation. Demand for newer, low-set villas in this pocket remains steady, with interest and competitive responses evident in recent activity. The configuration favors easy living over expansion, with no bushfire, flood, or heritage constraints easing ownership. Nearby amenities include Cooinda Primary (0.7km) and Bunbury Regional Community College Blair Street Campus (1.5km). Reliable NBN fibre-to-the-node and 4G coverage support remote work. The demographics show a balanced mix, with appeal to retirees and young families due to inlet proximity, though potential traffic on busier arterials and limited lot size may influence renovation plans. Opportunities exist for value-add polishing for owner-occupiers or for holding as a steady yield asset in a market favorable to quick-turn villas.
