A suitable agent should be focused on selling property near yours (bonus for the same street!), experienced at selling property like yours, have a strong history of successful negotiations, and possess a personality that works well with potential buyers and yourself. Most agents have a particular focus, e.g. units within a certain area, price bracket, and a ranking within their agency. We do everything we can to identify these agents for you.

What To Pay Your Clarkson Agent

More Information

Clarkson Suburb Overview

Clarkson is an outer northern suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located 34 kilometres north of Perth’s central business district. It is part of the City of Wanneroo local government area. While mostly a residential area, it also functions as a town centre, serving many surrounding areas with a vast amount of amenities and facilities. The suburb is currently the terminus of the Joondalup railway line.

Clarkson is bounded to the west by Mindarie and to the north by Merriwa and Ridgewood. The Joondalup railway line divides Clarkson from the Neerabup National Park in the east. South of Clarkson is Tamala Park, which is uninhabited.

It is approximately 2 kilometres away from the Indian Ocean and the coastlines of Claytons Beach and Quinns Beach.

The suburb’s name refers to the Clarksons, a family of sheep farmers who had held leases of land in the area since the 19th century. Clarkson was originally gazetted as “Mindarie” by the Shire of Wanneroo in 1979, but the two names were transposed in 1985 at the request of Smith Corporation, who went on to develop the Mindarie Keys Marina three years later.

The first permanent European settler in the area was Bernard Drummond Clarkson, a sheep-farmer who also held land in Toodyay. Clarkson first acquired a pastoral lease in 1888 of 13,000 acres in the areas comprising modern-day Mindarie, Clarkson, Quinns Rocks and Merriwa. The leases were known as the Mindarie Pastoral Company, and the lands were primarily used for sheep-herding by subsequent generations of the Clarkson family.

The ruins of the Clarksons’ first homestead and home of the Mindarie Pastoral Company are today preserved in Riverlinks Park on Connolly Drive.

The Mindarie Pastoral Company leases were sold off by John Clarkson in 1952. The land subsequently saw no development or settlement until the early-90’s, naturally following the completion of the adjacent Mindarie Marina and subsequent residential dwellings in the area. The north-eastern portion of Clarkson around the high school was developed later in 1995. The suburb continued to be built throughout the 2000s, with a steadily growing population.

Outside of Clarkson’s main commercial zone in the south-west, the suburb consists mostly of residential, detached bungalow housing with vast amounts of parkland. There is a strip of two-storey apartment blocks along Ocean Keys Boulevard, immediately opposite the railway station, and another strip of apartments closer to the shopping centre on Ningaloo Bend. The suburb also contains a larger concentration of public housing than surrounding areas.

Somerly is a new commercial and housing development in south-east Clarkson, principally surrounding the railway station, that was completed in 2008. The 1,800 lot community was built on a 162 hectare area in a partnership between development company Urban Pacific and the Western Australia Government Department of Housing and Works land development agency Landstart. The project aimed to provide a community-within-a-community with commercial enterprise, fibre-optic to the home internet, and a landscaping package at no extra cost to new home-buyers.

The development of the Somerly estate has made Clarkson one of the largest and most densely-populated suburbs in Perth’s northern corridor, with a population now approaching 12,000. It is roughly delineated from the older, established parts of Clarkson by Liberty Drive to the north, Connolly Drive to the west and Polglase Fairway to the south-west.

A new residential estate under the preliminary name of “Catalina” is being planned for development in 2012. The estate’s proposed boundaries lay south of Neerabup Road and extend from the Joondalup rail line in the east, to the coast of Mindarie Beach and Claytons Beach to the west. Although the land is part of Clarkson and Mindarie at present, Satterley, the developers, intend for the estate to eventually be re-gazetted as its own suburb.
