House and Land Packages in Alkimos
Lifestyle smarts: Alkimos
This buzzing northern suburb is jam packed with activities, on the beach and on land. Just 15km north of Joondalup, Alkimos is part of Perth’s ‘high growth’ northern corridor, meaning that there are bigger and smarter things planned for this up-and-comer. *pst* we even heard a rumour that there’s a state funded rail extension and bus station on the horizon, not to mention the freeway extension! Building a home in Alkimos is what we call investment smarts.
There are four established schools in the area; St. James’ Anglican School, Alkimos Primary, Alkimos Beach Primary, and Northshore Christian Grammar School. You’ll also find daycare centres, medical centres, cafes, restaurants, a tonne of green space, and walking and cycling paths all through the suburb. You can guarantee yourself a great feed when you live in Alkimos, whether its from one of the restaurants or from your own picnic on the beach.
Speaking of the beach, Alkimos is located right on the shore of our beautiful Indian Ocean so you’ll be able to swim, snorkel, surf, and sandcastle your way through each weekend! As if beach living wasn’t a big enough dose of location smarts, Alkimos is just a short drive to Butler train station, Aldi, and Woolies. It’s also in the middle of Marmion Ave. and Wanneroo Rd. so the drive to work will be a breeze.

House and land FAQ
Here’s a few As to some Qs you may have.Â
Let's start at the beginning, what's a house and land package?
Basically they’re a packaged deal, kinda like Oprah and Gail … or, Sunday roast and crackling. House and land packages feature a block of land from the developer and a new home from the builder. The two components are then bundled together into one all-inclusive ‘package’. This means that you get all the deets on the full cost of your build from the start. We call this transparency smarts. Or, x-ray vision smarts.
What's included in the cost of a house & land package?
- Choice of six rendered front elevations
- Full internal wall paint throughout
- WA-made cabinetry
- Deluxe 900mm stainless steel kitchen appliances
- Choice of matt black or chrome fixtures
- 6* NatHERS energy rated design
We’ve also factored a reasonable amount in for siteworks; however, this amount is variable and subject to change.
How does buying a house & land package work?
It may feel like you need house and land PhD smarts to de-code the buying process, but it’s actually pretty simple. Basically, a builder and a developer come together to market their two offerings (house and land) as a single bundle-buy (house plus land).
These ‘bundles’ are often more attractive to buyers as it takes the guesswork *cough, stress work* out of building a new home. Sure, they may be marketed as a bundle-buy, but house and land packages involve two contracts at the time of signing. Only a builder has the right to sell you the home and only the developer has the right to sell you the land. H&L PhD complete. Simple.
Are house and land packages cheaper? Fill me in on the savings
Yep, you’re onto it. The savings smarts are hard to ignore with H&L packages. It all starts with buyers (aka, you) knowing the full cost of their home from the start. You also get the best possible price for the house AND the land, without the hassle of negotiations. Oh, and stamp duty only has to be paid on the value of the vacant land. It’s a pretty sweet set up!
What’s the deal with negotiating on house and land packages?
Well, the deal is … there isn’t one. Unfortunately house and land packages can’t be negotiated as they’re fixed cost bundle-buys. Wait, don’t cry. Each component (the house and the land) has already been negotiated down to its BEST price by the parties involved (the builder and the land developer). This means that it’s already presented to you in the most attractive price package possible. What can we say, everything we do is for you, boo.
Do I have to pay stamp duty on house & land in WA?
Yes, but only on the land. Better yet, you only have to pay stamp duty on land valued over $300,000. So, if your block is valued under that amount – which is very possible when purchasing from WA’s new estates – no duty is payable. Score.
Are house and land packages eligible for the $10k FHOG?
All our house and land packages under $750,000 are eligible for the FHOG. So, if you purchase one of these – and meet the seven criteria req to receive the $10,000 First Home Owners Grant (FHOG) – the money (and stamp duty savings) are yours, all yours.
