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

Why this property?

  • CalculationLand 690 m² against a 160 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in New Town (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,604/m² of land (n=72). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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

TAS

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $499/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 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.

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. 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 for this property.

  • 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.

Gorgeous family home in this central location has it all & more....

This beautiful, sun-drenched family home is full of surprises! Versatile in its layout, practical in its finishes and stunning in its presentation, you can just move in and appreciate the privacy, enjoy the fabulously convenient location and relax in the sun! From the moment you step in the front gate, you are welcomed by the beautiful box hedging and gorgeous colours that flow into the rear garden. The single garage also provides access into the backyard with a rollerdoor and driveway that leads around to the single carport adjoining the fabulously large workshop/studio, perfect for an artist or home handyperson who needs a warm, dry and light space to spread out and be creative!

The entrance sets the tone for the rest of the home....spacious, light and showcasing the quality Tasmanian Oak floorboards that flow through the majority of this versatile home. Practical in every sense of the word, the rooms are flexible in their usage with four good sized bedrooms plus a single study or baby's room, closest to the main bedroom upstairs that is complimented by its' own stylishly renovated ensuite and walk-in robe.

The dreamy layout has the living spaces facing north/north easterly, making the most of the natural sunlight and relaxing garden outlook into your own backyard. Well established trees create added privacy and shelter from the searing summer sun, making this the perfect garden playground for young children (and your family dog), to roam safely within the confines of the very generous fenced, near level backyard!

Read the full description

The kitchen/dining and family space is light and open with granite benchtops in the kitchen and a newly renovated laundry. Loads of storage cupboards in this space provide ample room for all those electrical appliances and pantry extras that most kitchens struggle to accommodate. Double doors lead into the cosy lounge complete with built in bookcase and feature mantle. The home is heated by both wood and electric heaters. This along with a floorplan that allows for spaces to be opened up in the summer months and closed up over the cooler months, provides year round comfort.

A great deck opens off the kitchen making this practical for entertaining or dining alfresco on a warm summers evening. Just add your own fairylights to create an enchanted garden oasis! Downstairs is a huge dry storage area, enclosed with concrete flooring for a clean space to set up a cool train track or just keep those extra "items" that would usually fill your garage...but not here...your garage is for your car because you have so much extra storage available!

Rewired, replumbed and repainted, there is very little to do but move in and make the most of this fabulous location. Raised veggie garden beds and a watering system means you can grow your own fresh produce. Until these are ready to be harvested, you can walk across the street to the New Town Shopping Plaza for all your shopping and grocery needs without needing to use your car! Local primary and secondary schools (public and private), are within walking distance or an easy commute for the younger ones in your family. Either way, this charming, beautifully presented home cannot be beaten on location, exciting and flexible layout options, presentation and great storage capabilities. Homes like this get snapped up quickly!
