About Koondoola
Welcome to Koondoola
Koondoola sits in Perth's northern suburbs, around 15 kilometres from the CBD, tucked between Girrawheen, Balga, Alexander Heights and Marangaroo. It's a suburb built largely through the 1970s housing boom, and it retains that character today: wide, quiet streets, generous blocks and a strong sense of established community rather than new-estate polish.
With a population of just under 4,000 and a median age of 35, Koondoola attracts a mix of young families, first-home buyers and long-term residents who value affordability and proximity to Perth without the price tag of the inner or coastal suburbs. It's a practical, unpretentious pocket of the north that's increasingly on the radar of buyers priced out of neighbouring areas.
Housing & architecture
Koondoola's housing stock is dominated by houses, which make up 82% of current listings, with land sites at 12% and a small share of apartments and units at 6%. Most homes date from the suburb's original development era, offering classic brick-and-tile designs on generous blocks — the kind of footprint that's becoming harder to find closer to the city.
This mix suits buyers looking for renovation potential or room to extend, as well as those eyeing future subdivision given the land component still available. It's a suburb where you're far more likely to be assessing an established home than choosing between display-home floorplans.
The property market
The median house price in Koondoola currently sits at $760,000, following growth of 20.6% — a sharp rise that reflects the broader surge of buyer interest in Perth's affordable northern corridor. Median rent is $630 per week, pointing to solid demand from tenants as well as owner-occupiers.
For buyers, Koondoola remains one of the more accessible entry points into Perth's middle-ring suburbs, especially compared with nearby Alexander Heights and Marangaroo. That combination of relative affordability and strong recent growth has made it a suburb worth watching for both first-home buyers and investors chasing rental yield.
Getting around
Koondoola is well served by bus routes connecting to Mirrabooka and on to the Stirling and Warwick train stations on the Joondalup line, giving residents a reasonably direct run into the Perth CBD. Main roads such as Beach Road and Mirrabooka Avenue provide easy car access to the wider northern suburbs and onto the Mitchell Freeway.
It's not a suburb built around a train station of its own, so most residents rely on a car or bus connection for the commute, but the road network makes getting to Joondalup, Perth or the coast a straightforward trip.
Schools & families
Families in Koondoola have several local options, including Koondoola Primary School within the suburb itself, and Waddington Primary School nearby. Burbridge School provides specialist education support, while Mercy College in neighbouring Girrawheen offers secondary schooling with a Catholic tradition.
The presence of these schools, combined with the suburb's parks and larger blocks, makes Koondoola a practical choice for families wanting space and community feel without straying far from Perth's established northern suburbs.
Parks & recreation
Koondoola benefits from the green space typical of 1970s suburban planning, with local parks and ovals scattered through its residential streets offering room for weekend sport, dog walks and casual play. Its position near Marangaroo also puts residents within easy reach of the Marangaroo Golf Course and further bushland reserves that punctuate Perth's northern suburbs.
For bigger outings, Bushmead and Lake Gwelup-style reserves elsewhere in the north are a short drive away, but locally it's the everyday, low-key green spaces that residents rely on most.
