About South Perth, Western Australia

The name South Perth reflects its position south of Perth and was recognised as a separate suburb early in the colony’s history, appearing on an official map by 1858. The Old Mill on Mill Point Road (built 1835) is identified by the City as the oldest surviving colonial structure in the Perth area. Education has deep roots here too, with South Perth Primary School operating since 1898 and Wesley College’s substantial campus at Coode and Angelo Streets. The suburb’s river setting is well known, with regular ferries linking Elizabeth Quay to Mends Street Jetty and the Kwinana Freeway skirting the western edge near Narrows Bridge.

On Census night 2021, South Perth recorded 12,596 people and 7,012 private dwellings (5,625 occupied). The occupied homes included 33.9% separate houses, 36.5% semi‑detached or townhouse dwellings and 29.4% flats or apartments, showing a strong attached and apartment presence alongside detached housing. The City’s historical framework notes that the 1960s–70s brought multi‑storey residential and commercial buildings, adding to the mix we see today. Planning is guided by the City’s Local Planning Scheme No. 7, and the current Heritage List and Local Heritage Survey indicate heritage considerations can apply to listed places. All of this points to a suburb where maintenance, upgrades, renovations, strata and multi‑residential work sit alongside ongoing development and fit‑outs.
