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.

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: Australian Capital Territory schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Dickson'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
ACTPlanning 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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $500/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. No recorded off-street parking — often a discount versus the suburb median for the same beds.
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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.4%. 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 HOME.BYHOLLYThis artful ex-govie has been extended into the garden and is distinguished by its flexibility that includes an airy garden studio/garage conversion. Serving up four-bedrooms and a wonderfully balanced plan, the home champions family life across all ages and combinations. Soulful vintage details combine with pops of colour and big windows welcome lots of light. The home sits on a quiet street, handy to schools and green spaces. And it is an easy stroll to the dynamic Dickson Precinct with its fabulous foodie and cafe scenes.
Native gardens envelop the classic red-brick ex-govie, enhancing its sense of privacy, while a slender garden path leads to the welcoming front porch. On one side a driveway ushers to gated parking with the studio sitting beyond. We love the ochre yellow exterior that pops amidst the sea of green and the French doors that open this creative space to the sights and sounds of nature.
Within the main house you are first greeted by the hug of the foyer, with its golden light and handy rail for hanging coats and woollies. It is a lovely pause before you step into the open plan living, dining and kitchen, all flowing in a generous, circular sweep. Here big windows capture the sights and sounds of the front garden and there is a wonderful feeling of light and space. A gas wood burner adds an ambient warmth come winter, creating a wonderful spot to gather with friends and family. The original fireplace sits at one end, with its textural faux sandstone hearth, and long mantle for curated display.
The kitchen and dining space extends a vibrant welcome in sunshine yellow and there is a big window that overlooks the leafy back garden. The original cabinetry has been beautifully preserved and is now matched with a modern, freestanding oven from Bosch.
The extension flows to the north-east, spilling to outside where the studio and home create the feeling of a walled, open air courtyard. Inside the extension there is a short hallway lined with built-in-storage, an ensuite bathroom and a big bedroom informed by nature. This wonderful arrangement is perfectly adaptable, think second living area, master suite, teen hang or inter-generational living.
The other end of the home serves up three welcoming bedrooms and a family bathroom with a tub. There is the convenience of a two-way, separate toilet which can be accessed via the bathroom and the laundry, which opens directly onto the garden. All three bedrooms have built-in-robes, are warmed by woollen carpeting and are graced by garden views and natural light.
The studio has lofty raked ceilings, exposed beams and big glazing's that welcome the presence of the garden within. We love the way you can exit the side door and stride across the lawn, straight into the extension. It creates a pavilion style feel and blurs the boundaries between outside and in. The garden itself is privatised by green walls and big leafy trees and gifts lots of space for solitude and communion. Think a big dining table for alfresco lunches, kids playing on the soft lawns and the special feeling of your very own sanctuary, right in the heart of the inner north.
Resting at the foothills of Mt Ainslie, surrounded by green spaces, Dickson has a relaxed village vibe. It is an easy stroll to the famous Dickson precinct for shopping and choice of international cuisine. The wetlands and Dutton St, playground are close to hand and there is a choice of public and private schooling. Close to transport, and the famous Ainslie shops, the home, is also just a stone's throw from the dynamic Braddon precinct, the CBD, and the ANU.
