Elders Real Estate Elders Real Estate is Australia's most experienced real estate group combining local knowledge with national reach to provide results for our clients.

Established in June 1968 by founder John Gordon Coote, with a sales team of three, the firm was known as “Farming Real Estate” before changing its name to “Southern Districts Estate Agency” a year or so later. For the first four years the Company specialised only in rural sales in the South West region and the wheat belt. In 1972 its interest spread to urban selling. There followed a natural progression to industrial / commercial development and management, settlements, housing rentals and finance advice to clients which continues today. Elders Southern Districts Estate Agency is now one of the largest and most diversified real estate groups in the South West of Western Australia. Our offices in Bunbury, Capel & Collie are managed by staff with areas of expertise that closely match the diversified nature of our operations. We take pride and responsibility in our diversity across commercial property management, leasing and sales, business sales , sellers of residential property, managers of residential property and sellers of rural land across the entire South West land division. With real estate staff of around 65 people in Southern Districts alone, and with the strength and backing of Elders that exposes our clients to over 1200 employees and 440 points of presence nationally, we really can open opportunities for all of our customers. Our reach locally, nationally and internationally allows us to provide the perfect solution for you – a quick and efficient transaction at a price that suits you.

Affordability is becoming one of the strongest forces shaping Australia’s property market in 2026.

According to the latest Cotality Australia data, lower-priced homes and units have generally held up better than higher-value properties as buyers become more selective and borrowing capacity remains under pressure.

For buyers, that means focusing on value, manageable repayments and ongoing costs. For sellers, it means understanding where your property sits within the local market and who can realistically afford it.

Designed a little differently, and that’s exactly what makes this one stand out ✨

Set across approximately 2.5 acres, this architecturally designed and custom-built home centres around its pool and entertaining spaces, with all five bedrooms positioned for easy access to the outdoor area.

The result is a home that feels more like a private resort, with indoor and outdoor living closely connected throughout.

With softer property values, more listings and longer selling times, buyers, sellers and investors may need to take a more considered approach this spring.

RBA increases the official cash rate to 4.60% 📈

The Reserve Bank of Australia has increased the cash rate by 25 basis points to 4.60% at its September meeting, as it continues to respond to elevated inflation and changing economic conditions.

The RBA noted that some upside risks to inflation are materialising, with higher global energy prices, ongoing cost and capacity pressures, and recent inflation outcomes in Australia stronger than expected. While economic growth is showing signs of slowing, the RBA says inflation remains too high and further tightening was warranted to support its return to target.

For homeowners, buyers and investors, changes to the cash rate can flow through to home loan interest rates, repayments and borrowing capacity.

If you haven't reviewed your loan recently, it could be worth understanding how the latest rate change may affect your position.

Why are more investors looking at regional commercial property in Australia?

As commercial property prices rise across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, regional markets are attracting interest from investors seeking more accessible entry points, rental income and opportunities to diversify beyond Australia's capital cities.

Regional commercial property can offer lower acquisition costs, less competition and rental yields that compare favourably with some metropolitan assets. Growing regional economies are also being supported by population growth, infrastructure investment and expanding healthcare, education, logistics and transport sectors.

But identifying a commercial property investment involves more than comparing purchase prices and yields. Understanding the location, asset type, lease structure, due diligence requirements and potential risks remains critical.

Want to explore the opportunities beyond the capital cities? Read the full article and download your free Elders Commercial Property Buyer's Guide for practical insights, checklists and guidance for commercial property investors👇

Magnificent Bush Retreat with Wildlife Sanctuary on 10.73 Ha ✨

Nestled in the heart of nature, this magnificent bush retreat spans an impressive 10.73 hectares* (26.5 acres), offering a sanctuary for native wildlife and an abundance of amazing birdlife.
With pristine views of the surrounding bushland and a beautifully elevated position, this property combines luxury, comfort, and sustainability to create an exceptional living experience.
As you make your way down the winding gravel road, past the tranquil dam, you'll arrive at a stunning elevated brick, double-storey residence, complete with verandahs that wrap around the home and beautifully crafted limestone retaining walls. These walls not only provide a stunning visual frame but also ensure the property remains secure and well-integrated into its natural environment. To see is to believe - this home has been finished to an exceptional standard, offering the perfect balance of privacy, luxury, and functionality.

Home Features
Spanning approximately 250m²* of living space, this expansive home is designed to provide both family comfort and sophisticated living.
It features four 'more-than' spacious bedrooms, with one downstairs and three upstairs, each with its own private balcony-offering sweeping views of the picturesque bushland. The master suite is particularly impressive, with ample room that rivals a luxury hotel room.
The home offers two generously sized bathrooms, each finished with quality fixtures and fittings. The downstairs bathroom boasts a classic cast-iron clawfoot bath, perfect for long, relaxing soaks. Upstairs, the bathroom features a spa bath-ideal for unwinding after a day of outdoor adventures.

Living & Entertainment Areas
Designed with family and entertainment in mind, the downstairs area features a huge open-plan living and dining space that seamlessly flows into the large kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with ample storage, gas cooking, and a double fridge recess, providing the ideal space for preparing meals and entertaining guests. A stunning sheoak stairwell leads to the upper floor's JARRAH FLOORING, adding to the home's luxurious feel.
The entire downstairs living area is designed for ease and comfort, with wheelchair accessibility built into the layout. Underfloor heating throughout the bottom floor, plus heating in the second upstairs bathroom, ensures a cosy and comfortable environment year-round, no matter the weather.
A standout feature of the home is the wood fireplace located in the living room. With a flu that extends up to the second storey via the loft area, this fireplace efficiently warms both the downstairs and upstairs, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere throughout the home.

Sustainability & Modern Comfort
This property has been built with sustainability in mind. The solar panels not only help reduce energy costs but are complemented by a generator for backup power, ensuring peace of mind during any power outage. The solar hot water system is boosted by an electric booster, ensuring you'll never run out of hot water. The home is also well-insulated with full insulation and sisalation, maintaining energy efficiency year-round.
The limestone retaining walls and wrap around verandahs not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of the home but also add functionality, creating level areas for outdoor living and year-round entertaining, protection from the elements and a framework for gardens, and access paths. The thoughtful landscaping ensures that the home blends seamlessly with its surroundings while maintaining a high standard of design.
The property benefits from both rainwater and bore water, with a system that includes carbon/sand filters and a UV steriliser, ensuring clean, pure water for the entire home. The bore water is available to top up the rainwater supply if needed, making the property self-sufficient in its water needs.

External Features & Infrastructure
Outdoors, the property is just as impressive.
At the back of the home, you'll find a large powered workshop with a concreted floor, offering plenty of space for tools, machinery, or projects. The workshop includes four large lock-up bays at the front, plus a huge verandah storage area across the back with access to a fifth lock-up bay complete with a vehicle hoist-ideal for automotive enthusiasts, hobbyists, or those needing extra storage space.

Wildlife Sanctuary & Natural Beauty
Beyond the home itself, this property serves as a sanctuary for native animals and is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers alike. The abundant wildlife and diverse birdlife create an immersive outdoor experience, making this the perfect retreat for those seeking a connection with nature.
Location & Lifestyle
This stunning retreat offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience, providing a peaceful, private lifestyle without compromising on modern comforts. Whether you're looking for a luxurious family home, a peaceful getaway, or a space to indulge in your hobbies, this property offers it all. With ample space to explore and a home designed for ultimate comfort, this bush retreat is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to embrace the beauty of nature, all while enjoying the very best in contemporary living.
