Given the $1,215,000–$1,315,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,215,000–$1,315,000(Listing record · 24 Aug 2026)
  • CalculationAsk is 28% above the Yamanto median recorded sale ($950,000, n=41, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Yamanto's advertised median rent ($538/wk), implied gross yield would be 2.30% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

What could make it worth less?

No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No hazard layer has been retrieved — confirm flood, bushfire and heritage exposure from council mapping before an offer.

Each line above is labelled. A fact is quoted from the named source, with its date. A calculation is worked out by Districts from those facts — you can check the arithmetic. An interpretation is Districts' opinion of what the evidence means, not a fact, a valuation, or advice. Anything we haven't retrieved yet is marked as missing rather than treated as a pass.

Capital growth

QLD

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $538/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded. Suburb vacancy or leased-tape days are not this property’s competition.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.3%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Verdict

What this means for this property

Districts view

Not enough official evidence yet to underwrite this as an investment.

Detail

The same ten questions apply to every property. Missing flood, nearby DAs, achieved rents, or lot geometry is unknown — not “no.”

Do not treat a suburb median, an advertised yield, or a listing score as the case for this lot.

The evidence loaded so far isn't enough on its own to change a buy, offer, or walk-away decision for this property.

Evidence

What is known for this property

Districts asks the same ten questions of every property. If one shows as unknown, that data isn't published for this state or hasn't been loaded yet — the question stays visible so you can see exactly what's missing.

1 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • Honest achievable rent

    Knownlow

    This is not “bond data says this address leases for $X.” The comparable figure is a suburb advertised/median rent, not this property. Official bond files (postcode or suburb × type × bedrooms) are not loaded yet.

  • Rental supply pressure

    Unknown

    Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.

  • Why is this cheap?

    Unknown

    The constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

  • Catalyst exposure

    Unknown

    Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

  • This lot's DA history

    Unknown

    Development applications have not been queried for this parcel.

  • Statutory land value versus ask

    Unknown

    Statutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

From the moment you arrive, this is a home that immediately feels different. Elevated from the street and framed by established tropical gardens, rock retaining and a striking decorative driveway, the property makes an impressive first statement before you even reach the front door. Step through the covered entry and inside, where an expansive floorplan has been designed around space, separation and effortless family living.

The entry opens into a light filled interior where high ceilings, plantation shutters and crisp neutral tones create an inviting sense of space. With three separate indoor living areas, there is genuinely somewhere for everyone to unwind. A formal lounge provides a quieter retreat, while the dining area leads through to the heart of the home. Further along, the family living zone brings everyone together, complete with a wood burning fireplace, ceiling fan and air conditioning, while another separate living space gives larger families even more flexibility.

At the centre sits the updated kitchen, delivering an abundance of bench and storage space with extensive cabinetry, generous preparation areas, electric cooking, stainless steel appliances and dishwasher. Positioned to connect naturally with the adjoining living spaces, the kitchen remains part of the action whether you're preparing dinner for the family or entertaining a house full of guests. Multiple access points continue that connection outdoors, giving the home natural indoor outdoor flow.

Accommodation is equally well considered. Every bedroom includes built in storage, while all but one are equipped with split system air conditioning and ceiling fans add another layer of year round comfort. The impressive master suite offers excellent proportions, plantation shutters, air conditioning and ceiling fan, but the real surprise is the generous fitted walk in robe and updated ensuite, finished with a contemporary double vanity, twin vessel basins, black tapware and a large shower.

The family bathroom provides both a separate bathtub and shower, complemented by a separate toilet, while extensive hallway cupboards and linen storage add another practical advantage. A dedicated internal laundry with direct outdoor access completes the home's well considered everyday functionality.

And then you step outside.

This is where the property truly comes into its own.

Across three distinct outdoor entertaining zones, the backyard feels more like a private resort than a suburban home. The expansive covered alfresco provides an incredible space for long lunches, barbecues and entertaining, complete with a ceiling fan, downlights and enough room for a substantial outdoor dining setting.

A second outdoor sitting area creates another relaxed space amongst the landscaped surrounds, while the poolside Bali hut delivers the ultimate place to switch off with friends and family.

At the centre of it all is the sparkling in ground swimming pool, privately framed by tropical gardens and secure fencing. Beside it, the timber decked Bali hut creates a genuine holiday at home atmosphere, while mature palms and established landscaping provide a lush backdrop throughout the yard. A private putting green adds another standout touch, creating yet another space to enjoy and enhancing the home's already impressive lifestyle appeal.

Those needing storage, workshop space or somewhere for the toys are equally well catered for. In addition to the double garage, the property offers a substantial separate shed/workshop with single phase power, plus an additional garden shed and excellent external storage.

A 5.5kW solar system helps reduce household running costs, while a 5,000L water tank dedicated to garden use adds another practical touch to the landscaped surrounds.

With multiple spaces to come together, just as many places to escape, and an outdoor setup built for Queensland living, this is the type of home where weekends are spent around the pool, evenings stretch out under the alfresco and family gatherings naturally end up lasting longer than planned.

This isn't simply a home with plenty of features — it's a home designed to be lived in.
