What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,250,000 (19 Mar 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 696 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Swansea (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,745/m² of land (n=128). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $602/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Listing material

Listed by First National Real Estate Andrew McGrath

ABSOLUTELY MUST GO $200,000 REDUCTION

Circumstances have changed and the motivated owners of one of Swansea's finest residences want this sold.

Less than 350 metres to the Lakes edge, Jetty and Boat Ramp, this lakeside home must be seen to fully appreciate the practicality of the open plan, stylish, luxury living.

Put this beautiful home at the top of your inspection list!!

Read the full description

Luxury single level living with the added bonus of a virtually self contained guest wing/home office or home theatre room above the garage with a huge balcony. The astute purchaser will likely take advantage of the separate entry to the garage and loft area complete with shower and toilet to potentially gain extra rental income.

Only 350m from the boat ramp giving you access to the sparkling waterways of Lake Macquarie, you can enjoy fishing, boating and any water sports you desire. With Swansea CBD only 700m walk away, you are spoilt for choice with two major supermarkets, banks, post office, hair salons and a variety of boutique clothing, gift shops, cafes, restaurants, and clubs. This home promises the coastal location, lifestyle, and multiple entertaining areas that you and your family are looking for tucked away in a nice quiet street.

Step inside and you will be surprised by the spacious open plan areas, high ceilings and the fabulous floor plan.

The oversized formal living and dining flows through to the spacious entertainer's kitchen, family meals and air conditioned second living space that works so well, complimented so beautifully with polished timber floors and carpet.

The current owner reminisces of the large family gatherings at Christmas, birthdays and every special occasion held here with massive spreads of food filling the kitchen granite bench-tops, with ample space for everyone to move around freely. This really is a space you need to see to appreciate. In addition to all this, you will not believe the calm atmosphere and harmonious feeling that being inside this magnificent home brings.

Stepping through the French doors on the western side of the property you will find a beautiful and private retreat, styled with eco-decking and an outdoor roller blind for your complete comfort. Imagine taking your morning coffee or relaxing with a glass of wine or a cold beer on the deck after a short walk to the lake. Perfect!!

Of course, located on the ground floor there are three spacious bedrooms with the Master Suite offering a walk-in robe and double shower ensuite. The other two Queen sized bedrooms include large built-in robes and the main bathroom is centrally located to both.

The large laundry has ample storage and bench space in addition to a built-in internal drying station that soaks up the sun from the northern aspect. Off from the oversized single garage is a third bathroom, perfect for showering the kids before going inside after a day at the beach.

Head upstairs and be amazed to find a terrific airy and light filled, very large room which is only limited in use by your imagination. Make it a teenager's retreat, a pool and bar area, a fourth bedroom, a rumpus room, gym, or a home office, with access to a huge balcony that enjoys coastal breezes and starry night skies.

This home is set to the back of the 696m2 block of land, inviting additional entertainment out into the private and secure gardens with a covered alfresco dining area complete with sunken spa, BBQ and a little bit of number 1 Bay Street history thrown in.

This property offers so much more than meets the eye. A drive-by won't tell you the full story, you really need to come inside to appreciate the sheer size and warmth on offer. This is a must see!

The information contained herein has been provided by people we believe to be reliable, however, all interested parties must rely on their own enquiries.
