Overview

14 Balfour Street, Cottesloe

Offers closing 28.4.2026 at 4pm.

This extensively renovated residence is located in one of Cottesloe’s most sought-after and walkable neighborhoods, offering a unique opportunity that would be difficult to replicate in today’s market. The home has been completely transformed from top to bottom, presenting as a refined, light-filled coastal retreat with meticulous attention to detail and carefully selected finishes throughout.

In a market where construction costs are high and building timelines are extended, this property offers a genuine turn-key solution with all renovations completed to an exceptional standard, allowing immediate enjoyment without the wait or uncertainty of new construction.

The layout is designed for effortless everyday living, featuring a sun-drenched north-facing rear that fills the main living areas and outdoor entertaining spaces with natural light. The heart of the home includes a beautifully appointed open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area that flows seamlessly outdoors through expansive stacker doors, perfectly capturing the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that Cottesloe is renowned for.

Outdoor entertaining is exceptional, with a resort-style alfresco area that includes a built-in BBQ, servery window, and breakfast bar overlooking a sparkling below-ground pool. The pool area is framed by sleek glass fencing and generous lawn space. An elevated timber deck adds further versatility, creating an ideal space for hosting guests, relaxing with family, or simply enjoying the coastal environment.

Upstairs, there is a substantial secondary living area or retreat complete with its own kitchenette, providing valuable separation and making it ideal for families, guests, or multi-generational living arrangements.

Situated in a premium Cottesloe location, the home is just moments from the beach, train station, cafés, and Napoleon Street. It is also close to leading schools including Scotch College and Presbyterian Ladies' College. Securing land in this location and recreating a home of this scale and quality today would involve significantly greater cost, time, approvals, and uncertainty. This property represents the finished product without the wait.

Additional details include council rates of $4,690.80 per annum, water rates of $2,552.78 per annum, a land size of 552 square meters, and a year built in 1979 with complete renovation in 2019. The zoning is R20, and the expected rental return is approximately $1,800 to $2,000 per week.
