Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

Suburb median $910,000 from 8 recorded sales (last 12 months) — a Districts calculation, not a portal figure.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.
Stamp duty and transfer fees: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Based on the low end of the asking range, not a contract price.
Pre-filled with Croydon's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
Planning
Planning data is being calculated
Data unavailable
Source
Planning facts are copied from official government GIS where available. Where an official property PDF exists (VicPlan, PlanBuild), Districts stores and serves that original document. Neither is a planning certificate, survey, or advice.
Site
Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.
Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.
Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
VICPlanning 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.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $553/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.2%. 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
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
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.

Listing material
Listed by OBrien Real Estate BlackburnThis is that rare combination of a peaceful 2067sqms (approx.) nature sanctuary to call home, hidden away at the top of a private cul de sac of just 3 homes, still in walking distance to the hub of Croydon Central, and in easy reach of esteemed private education at Yarra Valley Grammar, Luther College, Tintern and Aquinas.
Crafted in 1987 by the Drake Brothers, the unique ranch style homestead is perfectly oriented north-east to take in stunning mountain vistas to Mount Donna Buang and its snow-capped peaks in winter – a spectacular panorama from one of the highest points of Croydon at 170 metres elevation.
Immersed in magnificent, tiered gardens of bird-attracting natives, it's the promise of tranquil green outlooks from every room which also serve to screen the home for a sense of absolute seclusion.
Framed by a character bullnose verandah, the home is cleverly zoned with formal and casual living rooms at its centre, reserving the 4 bedrooms in the quiet outer corners.
The renovations are in keeping with the heritage feel, detailed by subway tiling, gooseneck shower heads and timber look vinyl floors, with a truss roof designed for no load bearing walls to make for easy refiguring.
Aspiring chefs will appreciate a smartly appointed kitchen with a Smeg pro cooker with 3 cooking racks, 5 gas hobs, and an adjoining butler's pantry.
Parents will relish the scenic beauty of the master bedroom set in its own private wing, with beautiful mountain views to wake up to, and a lavish sized ensuite featuring twin wash basins. An egg-shaped soaker bath and frameless shower complete the family bathroom, with the addition of a separate toilet.
Proving the year-round lifestyle appeal of the property is the inclusion of ducted heating, evaporative cooling, an open fireplace, Gabian rock wall fencing, a high-roofed double garage, carport for caravans and boats, workshop, shed, 12,000L of rainwater storage, and an entertaining gazebo perfect for a spa, BBQs, or simply unwinding with views of the secret garden.
More than just a unique home, this is a chance for children to grow up surrounded by nature, amid whimsical gardens hiding owls, skinks, parrots, frogs, and a trail of metal artwork, as well as the convenience of being a 3min drive (20 min walk) to Croydon Central shops, the upgraded Croydon train station and nearby Eastlink to fast track you from the city to the coast.
