No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
No verification items generated for this record.
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.

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.
The official layer was queried and no bushfire risk zone was detected on this parcel (Landgate SLIP, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.
The official layer was queried and no heritage listed area was detected on this parcel (Landgate SLIP, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,012 m² — that is not official geometry. 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.
Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $872/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. Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property. 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.
Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. 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.
2 of 10 questions answered so far
Development optionality of this lot
UnknownWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,012 m² — that is not official geometry.
Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Honest achievable rent
KnownlowThis 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
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?
KnownmediumOfficial parcel about 1,014 m² — land size can look like optionality. No material overlays were returned that would explain a discount. That is not proof the price is fair. Nearby DAs, easements, and flood-layer gaps can still explain a cheap-looking listing — those are not all loaded.
Lot-level flood
UnknownFlood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”
Catalyst exposure
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownNo DA adapter returned applications for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask
UnknownStatutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.
Net yield / holding costs
UnknownNet yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Listing material
Listed by Ray White Cottesloe | Mosman ParkNestled on a sprawling 1012sqm north-facing block surrounded by mature, towering trees, this iconic home effortlessly blends old-world charm with a sophisticated architect-designed renovation.
Situated in the highly sought-after Swanbourne precinct, known for its grand homes and expansive parklands, this rare gem is only minutes away from the upcoming Daisies Café Swanbourne, Scotch College, the Claremont Crescent shopping precinct, Cottesloe Beach, and public transport.
The property features an independent artist's studio, an original workshop, and lush garden surrounds, offering ample opportunity to restore and enhance the home's existing grandeur into something truly extraordinary.
Built in 1914 on an elevated, tree-canopied site, the original residence celebrates classic period details such as soaring ceilings, rich jarrah floors, sash windows, and leadlight accents, beautifully contrasted by bespoke custom wallpapers. These charming features extend through the many multi-purpose rooms, where the creative owners lived joyfully for over six decades.
The front sitting room offers views over the porch and could easily be transformed into a grand master suite. The room also features an original fireplace and built-in storage. Other bedrooms lead to cozy nooks and alcoves, perfect for use as dressing rooms, libraries, or writing spaces.
An independent entry from the front porch opens to one of the secondary bedrooms, complete with a built-in wall bed and ample surrounding storage.
The main entrance to the home is via a charming courtyard, where a stunning antique timber door opens to reveal a magnificent architect-designed rear extension. A wall of large picture windows and sliding doors flood the open-plan living and dining area with soft northern light, offering views of the lush gardens, a brick-paved terrace, and a vine-draped canopy.
The guest bedroom is discreetly hidden behind a sliding door and enjoys serene views of the garden. The modern kitchen, framed by glass and sharing the same beautiful northern light, features oak floors, a large marble island bench, stainless steel countertops, and custom sea-foam cabinetry, seamlessly blending with the outdoors.
Beyond winding brick pavers, centennial trees, and garden beds, you'll find a double-brick, architecturally designed studio, perfect for conversion into an independent dwelling.
