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.

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 $578/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.
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.

Listing material
Listed by Bell Real Estate EmeraldPerfectly designed for large families, multi-generational living, or guest accommodation, this expansive nine-bedroom, three-bathroom brick residence delivers extraordinary space and lifestyle on an impressive, totally private 30 acres (approx) in a metropolitan pocket remarkably close to the city. With almost no neighbours, huge cleared paddocks, a year-round creek running the entire length of the property, and a spectacular forest walk leading to a waterfall and dam, the setting is as rare as it is serene.
The property includes initial council support to replace the existing cottage or establish a second dwelling along Butterfield Road, offering exciting scope for those wanting dual accommodation or an entirely separate home site.
Front gates and a sweeping circular driveway lead to a drive-through carport and a massive garage with its own toilet, plus cleared land behind — ideal for extra storage, parking, or future use. Inside, the home unfolds across two fully air-conditioned wings, each thoughtfully mirrored for comfortable multi-family living.
Two fully equipped kitchens (each with wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher, and generous storage), two laundries, a large tiled central dining hall, and two spacious lounges (each with fireplace and split system) provide endless flexibility. Furnishings including beds, tables, washing machine, and dishwashers ensure easy transition for large families or guest accommodation setups.
The ground floor of each wing features a master bedroom with bay window, robes, and a large ensuite-effect bathroom with spa bath, dual vanities, and picture windows, alongside a second bedroom with ensuite-style access. Upstairs, an open-plan retreat connects to five further bedrooms, a central bathroom, and a separate toilet — plenty of room for everyone.
Outdoors, lifestyle takes centre stage with an inground gas-heated pool, inground trampoline, two large powered sheds (each approx. 12m x 8m), a spring-fed dam, additional dam at the front of the home, and cleared paddocks ready for horses or hobby farming. From the huge house footprint to the natural features that frame it, this extraordinary estate captures the very best of privacy, scale, and possibility — all within reach of metropolitan conveniences.
This rare holding combines scale, flexibility, and recreation — all in one remarkable Hills estate.
