The housing

Apartments and terrace style houses dominate, many with water or park outlooks, ranging from the original cove developments through to newer towers. It draws a steady mix of owner-occupiers who want to be near the city and investors who value the tenant demand.

What is on the doorstep

Claisebrook Cove and its boardwalks, the Royal Street cafes, Queens Gardens with its lakes and statues, the WACA Ground and Gloucester Park. Optus Stadium sits directly across the river, reached on foot over the Matagarup Bridge, which makes East Perth one of the best placed suburbs in Perth on an event day.

Getting around

Claisebrook station serves the suburb, the CBD is an easy walk along the river or through the parklands, and the free CAT bus network reaches the area.
