COOGEE
GET TO KNOW
THE AREA
Many locals have known for a long time that Coogee is special. Those white sandy beaches and ocean views have been a drawcard for years, but only in the last few years have developers caught on to the value of this coastal neighbourhood.
Only covering a few square kilometres, a good portion of which covers parks and impressive homes making the most of their coastal vantage point, it’s hardly surprising families and retirees have chosen this idyllic spot to call home.
Lifestyle
This family-friendly neighbourhood caters well to coastal living with its proximity to beaches, parks, schools and popular cafés.
Some of Perth’s most sought-after properties can be found in Coogee, especially on Perlinte View (in North Coogee) and Ocean Drive, just metres from the water’s edge. Golden sunsets, open green spaces and walking trails are the main attractions of Coogee. The turquoise coast offers kilometres of beaches, a nearby marina and the picturesque Woodman Point Regional Park.
