Bassendean is a stunning riverside suburb located on the Swan River, just 10 kilometres from the Perth CBD, and only five minutes from the world-famous Swan Valley Wine Region. Bassendean is known for its historic homes, picturesque riverside parklands, and quaint town centre.

Residents can catch the train on the Midland line to the city in a few short minutes while spending weekends enjoying the vast riverside parklands or a visit the wineries and restaurants of the Swan Valley.
