This site is ideally located right next to one of Perth’s great attractions – Hillarys Boat Harbour, offering new residents a high-quality coastal lifestyle.

Plans for the site are still in development, but 85-95 apartments are anticipated.

The retail offering are likely to include a small scale grocer, food and beverage and a few other speciality tenancies to support the local community.

How will traffic be managed?

As part of the development application package, a traffic assessment will be prepared. This will consider all vehicle and pedestrian movement to and from the site, as well as consider the surrounding movement networks and the impacts they will have on the development and visa versa. 

Can the community provide feedback on the development?

Yes. Whilst the plans for the site are still being considered and developed, Locus Property are seeking early feedback from the community to understand what the key priorities of the community are. 

You can share your thoughts by completing a short survey before 21 November 2025. To view the survey, click the Latest Updates link at the top of the page.

This process will be managed by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage as part of the Significant Development Assessment Unit process.
