***UNDER OFFER BEFORE 1 HOME OPEN***

Set on an impressive 890sqm parcel just ~400m from the Rockingham Beach foreshore, 31 Thorpe Street, Rockingham is the kind of coastal landholding that's getting harder to find-big block, brilliant lifestyle position, and genuine future upside.


Whether you're a home-buyer chasing space near the ocean, a renovator ready to add value, or a developer/investor looking ahead, this is a rare chance to secure a blue-chip Rockingham location with options.

THE LIFESTYLE - YOUR NEW FAMILY HOME
Wake up to sea air, stroll to the foreshore, cafés, parks and the coastline-this is the classic Rockingham dream: big land, beach close, and convenience on your doorstep.
• 890sqm block
• ~400m to Rockingham Beach foreshore (approx.)
• 3-bedroom brick home, a great base on a big block to renovate and make this property home.
• Options to renovate/extend, demolish and build your custom coastal home (STCA)

THE AUKUS EFFECT - DEVELOPMENT & INVESTMENT POTENTIAL
Rockingham is on the brink of one of the largest defence-driven transformations in Australia's history, and properties in close proximity to HMAS Stirling are set to be right in the firing line.

Under the AUKUS agreement, thousands of American and UK defence personnel, contractors, engineers and specialist workers are expected to rotate through and base themselves in Western Australia over the coming years. From as early as 2027, US and UK nuclear-powered submarines will operate out of Garden Island, bringing with them a huge, long-term workforce presence.

This isn't a short-term exercise. It's a multi-decade defence commitment, backed by billions of dollars in infrastructure upgrades, expanded naval capability, and sustained international military cooperation. With Garden Island and the Rockingham Naval Base at the centre of this expansion, housing close to the base becomes critical.

WHY AUKUS MATTERS FOR 31 THORPE STREET
• Defence personnel and contractors require housing close to HMAS Stirling
• Strong preference for established coastal suburbs with lifestyle appeal
• Demand spans rentals, renovated homes, and new development
• Proximity reduces commute times, a key factor for base personnel

This makes 31 Thorpe Street exceptionally well placed for:
• Renovators looking to upgrade and rent to defence workers
• Investors seeking strong, long-term rental demand near the naval base
• Developers considering future redevelopment (STCA) to accommodate increased housing needs driven by AUKUS

Large coastal blocks within minutes of Garden Island are finite, and once defence housing pressure truly ramps up, supply simply cannot keep pace.

Very few properties offer this mix of:
• 890sqm coastal land
• Walking distance to the foreshore
• Close proximity to a major naval base
• Future planning and development upside (STCA)
• Immediate renovation or rental potential

Do not miss your chance to secure this property, as calls are already flooding in as the sign went in the ground. Whether you're planning to renovate and hold, rent to defence personnel, or redevelop to capitalise on rising demand, this is a property positioned squarely in the path of Rockingham's next major growth wave.
