About Stake Hill

Stake Hill is a rural residential locality on the northeastern fringe of Mandurah, Western Australia, situated approximately 12 kilometres from the Mandurah city centre within the Shire of Murray. With a population of 469 recorded in the 2021 Census, it is a sparsely settled outer suburban area that retains a distinctly semi-rural character. The locality covers around 9 square kilometres and was established in the 1990s as residential development pushed outward from the Mandurah urban area, attracting families seeking larger blocks and a quieter lifestyle.

Stake Hill sits on the urban fringe between Mandurah and rural Murray, surrounded by neighbouring localities including Lakelands, Karnup, and Keralup. Residents typically rely on private vehicles to access everyday amenities, with Mandurah's retail centres, schools, and medical facilities a short drive away. The area appeals to those looking for affordable land and a peaceful setting without straying far from the Peel Region's growing services and the natural attractions of the South West.
