1 Monota Avenue Shelley WA 6148

Caleb Dalziell of The Agency is thrilled to introduce you to 1 Monota Avenue, Shelley — a stunning five-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence, less than 200 metres from the Shelley Foreshore. Set on a generous 885m² corner block, this fully renovated home delivers the ultimate blend of luxury, lifestyle, and location, with the added benefit of a unique corner position offering development potential.

Completely renovated to a superior standard in 2010 and hardly lived in since, the kitchen & bathrooms remain in near-new condition. Every element has been carefully considered — from the Italian-imported tiles and mosaics, to the feature ceilings, cabinetry and extensive feature lighting throughout. The chef's kitchen is a standout, featuring high-end SMEG appliances including a 900mm gas cooktop and oven, steam and microwave ovens, and a built-in coffee machine. The home offers five spacious bedrooms, with four featuring private ensuites, plus a powder room for guests. The fifth bedroom presents excellent flexibility — ideal as a study, dressing room or nursery — while the theatre room offers another private living space for family movies nights.

A spa ensuite, sitting room and private balcony off the master suite add an indulgent touch, complemented by hardwood timber flooring throughout. Ducted reverse-cycle zoned air-conditioning & dual hot water systems ensure comfort and functionality for all residents.

Designed for relaxed indoor-outdoor entertaining, the residence flows to a superb alfresco zone complete with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen — including sink, teppanyaki grill, deep fryer, and Argentinian-style BBQ — all enclosed with café blinds for year-round enjoyment. Outside, manicured gardens, extensive timber decking, and fruit trees (lemon, pomegranate, and mandarin) create a serene backdrop. The second crossover with gated side access on Barbican Street provides secure parking for a boat, caravan or trailer, or scope for future development — completing an offering that truly delivers luxury, lifestyle and location, all on a prime Shelley corner block.

THE OPPORTUNITY:
Ok, so you're aware the block has duplex subdivision potential (if the existing home were demolished). But did you know that a 'Special Purpose Dwelling' (SPD) could also be considered on this block while retaining the main residence? An SPD allows for a reduction in the minimum required lot size by one-third. For example, an R20 corner block such as this typically requires a minimum lot size of 350m² to be subdivided. However, if you were to apply to the City of Canning and the WAPC to build an SPD — such as a Single Bedroom Dwelling (with an internal floor area of no more than 70m²) — you could, subject to all relevant approvals, potentially achieve a 233m² minimum lot size (noting that the future use of that lot would be restricted to this specific dwelling type). This presents a remarkable opportunity for the savvy buyer, as it means you could retain the main residence and build a stunning Single Bedroom Dwelling on its own 233m² titled lot (post-subdivision). It would feature its own street frontage and sit less than 200m from the river! Given the current shortage of downsizing options in Shelley and Rossmoyne, this represents an outstanding opportunity — whether you choose to build and retain (for multi-generational living), build and rent for an additional income stream, or build and sell. The opportunities are endless.

NOTE:

The above opportunity was discussed with a Senior Planning Officer at the City of Canning and is, of course, subject to all relevant local government and WAPC approval processes. There is also potential for an 'Aged and Dependent Persons Dwelling', which allows for a larger internal living area of up to 100m² with universal accessibility measures provided. However, this option typically requires a minimum of five dwellings per development, so a dispensation would be needed for a single dwelling under this category. For further information, refer to Parts 5.5.2 and 5.5.3 of the R-Codes and consult with your surveyor and a City of Canning Planning Officer. Please note that the above advice provided by the City of Canning through its General Planning Advice Service is general in nature, provided in good faith, and does not involve any detailed assessment or determination of the matters discussed. All interested parties are responsible for making their own enquiries and conducting their own due diligence. The above concepts are concepts only and are intended to encourage interested parties to investigate the property's future development potential.
