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

Why this property?

Nothing about this record stands out yet — coverage may still be filling in.

What could make it worth more?

  • FactZoned RZ1 (RZ1) under the CHIFLEY.(ACTmapi · 30 Aug 2026)

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. 1No 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

ACT

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: medium

Zoned RZ1 (CHIFLEY). Official parcel area about 847 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. Zoning and lot facts are a starting point, not proof this lot outperforms the suburb. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. 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 $450/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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownmedium

    Zoned RZ1 (CHIFLEY). Official parcel area about 847 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.

  • 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. This jurisdiction has no comparable official bond series in the free set.

  • Rental supply pressure

    Unknown

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

  • Why is this cheap?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 847 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

    Unknown

    Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. 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

    No DA adapter returned applications 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.

Meticulous contemporary stunner, with cinema, pool and outdoor kitchen

For those who crave the ultimate in contemporary luxury and looking to cater for their family, only this impeccably designed two-storey showstopper will do.

Set on a leafy no-through street and optimally oriented with north to the rear, the two-year-old home will impress, configured across two levels, offering unparalleled finishes and amenities and a holiday-at-home vibe.

A custom front door pivots to reveal a 5.8m entry void featuring a picture window showcasing the inviting backyard crowned by a glimmering swimming pool with fountains and spa.

Read the full description

Herringbone-laid French oak engineered floors run throughout the living spaces, bringing both an elegant and easy-care touch that elevates the interiors to something special.

In the centre of the ground-floor layout, the gourmet kitchen with dual custom-fitted fridge/freezers, a four-seat island and an additional stone-topped preparation area is complemented by a butler's pantry creating a catering zone easily capable of hosting parties for numerous guests.

An oversized family and dining space gives plenty of room them to circulate with full-height glass to two sides showcasing picture-perfect views of the saltwater pool and spa, outdoor kitchen and dining, and the lawned backyard. Strategically placed doors give easy access to the exterior entertaining areas.

When it's time for work, an office off the entry hall has custom joinery for two workstations while a nearby media room is the place for the family to escape from it all.

Optimally positioned on this level, the principal suite is an airy, rejuvenating space with an ensuite featuring a double rainfall shower. A guest suite – also on this level – is serviced by another designer bathroom.

Upstairs, you'll find a family bathroom with dual sinks, soaker tub, shower, and separate toilet, and an oversize rumpus which provides an impressive breakout space for the occupants of three secondary bedrooms.

An easy stroll away are sports fields, playgrounds and the locally loved Chifley shops with popular cafe A Bite To Eat. Woden Town Centre, Canberra Hospital and multiple well-regarded schools, including Marist College, are within a few minutes' drive.
