properties - in python, is it a bad practice to use a property which doesn't return an instance variable?

Question

Ok, let's say that I want to create a Vector2d in python to represent two-dimensional vectors. Now, I want to have a property to get the magnitude of the vector, so I code the next class:

class Vector2d:
    def __init__(self, x, y):
        self._x = x
        self._y = y

    @property
    def magnitude(self):
        return (self._x**2 + self._y**2)**(1/2)

I know I could use normal methods to do things like this, but I think that this way is more simple to use my class, so the question is, is it considered a bad practice?
