PerthNow reported on 8 April 2025 that the family home of late sporting retailer Jim Kidd had been listed in Carine. The four-bedroom property stood on a 2,754-square-metre block spanning two titles and was distinguished by a full-size tennis court, a swimming pool and numerous spaces for entertaining. The report is a historical listing, not confirmation that the home is still for sale or that it has since sold.
What was the Carine home like?
The home combined formal rooms, casual living areas and outdoor entertaining. PerthNow described a layout with a formal dining room and lounge, a cocktail lounge and bar, a games room, and a sunken lounge with a fireplace. Outside, the property had an outdoor kitchen, an alfresco dining area, tropical gardens, a swimming pool and a full-size tennis court.
The main bedroom was reported to have its own study, ensuite and walk-in robes, as well as access to a private courtyard. The property’s four bedrooms and extensive shared spaces were set on 2,754 square metres over two titles, according to the 2025 report.
Where was it, and what was nearby?
PerthNow placed the home in Carine, reporting that it was 750 metres from Carine Glades parkrun and 5 kilometres from Waterman’s Bay beach. The report did not give a street address, so those distances should be understood as the article’s descriptions rather than directions to a precisely identified property.

The 2025 report identified Matt McWaters as the agent speaking on behalf of the Kidd family. It did not provide the property’s street address or current contact details. The eventual sale price, sale date and present status have not been reliably established here, so the historical listing report should not be treated as evidence that the property remains available.
