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.

Capital growth

NSW

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: medium

Zoned Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 715 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. If the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check, this lot can outperform a same-suburb house that is hold-as-is only. That is not a forecast. 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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $711/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Verdict

What this means for this property

Districts view

This looks more compelling as a land / capital-growth play than a pure yield play — if the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check.

Detail

Zoned Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 715 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.

Achieved rent for this address has not been inferred. Gross yield on advertising copy is not the deal.

Nearby DA pipeline is unknown, so neighbourhood change is not in this verdict.

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 Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 715 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 715 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Listing material

Listed by SOLD Real Estate

The beachside dream, 6 doors to the sand & surf, totally renovated contemporary home, with a self contained studio & mammoth shed for your boat & van!

Good luck finding something like this ever again in Blacksmiths ....

The garaging is like a machinery shed you would expect on a farm.

The home is pure beach house and wonderfully one level, with all the must haves, like soaring ceilings, 2 separate living areas, massive open living, including a monster kitchen, all looking out to the backyard and pool, with super sexy ensuite, powder room, main bathroom and 4 fabulous bedrooms.

Read the full description

There's even a new addition, granny flat like self contained studio with mezzanine living or storage above.

Not even 300m to the sand, they don't come much better than this rare as hen's teeth, all done, completely move in ready, like new, tick all the boxes, expansive single level residence.

Boasting a big, over 700m² rectangular shape block, ginormous, high, wide and deep rear garaging, oodles off street parking, with new side driveway access to the backyard, which will be re-sealed just prior to settlement, along with a pool and a substantial, yet not stupidly hard to look after or too big home.

Within seconds of the beach and easy strolling distance of the Surf Club, this contemporary residence is the complete package, with fantastic features the whole family will love, including a new addition, granny flat like studio off the colossal garaging.

Location wise, just 6 houses separate you from Nine Miles of famous surf and sand, with a track at the end of your street, for quick access swimming, surfing and fishing.

So that should put a smile on the faces of all the outdoorsy types in the family.

With a pool just off your new hardwood back deck, the crazy non-beach goers can still get wet and enjoy a swim without leaving home!

If you've got one or two of those never leave the house, gamer kids or grandkids, who are allergic to the outdoors, don't stress, they'll be happy too, with every bedroom a double or bigger, they can never leave their room if it suits them!

Open plan living with lofty raked ceilings and accent high set windows feature both front and back, letting you separate and watch different TVs when you can't decide on what to watch, or the footy is on and the non footy fans are up for a movie.

The vast back living incorporates a mammoth kitchen with so much island and bench space it's not funny, perfect for dishing up brekky to kids running late for school or the gals and guys who like to yak while you cook up a storm.

Boasting a lovely wide cooker and oven, there's no excuse not to keep the troops fed, even if it's just a never ending supply of party pies or sausage sandwiches, you should be able to smash out great Chrissy lunches for a crowd with plenty of prep, serving, cooktop and oven space.

You will love the volume of big drawers and the almost butler's style hidden laundry, with its own external access.

To die for bathrooms star, with a gorgeous ensuite, smoking hot main bathroom and sexy separate powder room perfect for guests and bigger families.

For the boaty types, the boat in this shed is massive, it's high, it's wide and it's long and it fits straight in.

Designed to take a caravan, your RAM style vehicles are an easy fit, park 3 chunky monkey trucks side by side and enjoy the extra garage space conversion to a self-contained, granny flat like studio, with open living and kitchenette, sexy bathroom, separate guest bedroom and mezzanine extra living, bedroom or storage up top.

Incredibly low on maintenance, the large-scale improvements of house, garage and pool take up a fair bit of the oversized block, so there isn't a ton of mowing to do, leaving you free to enjoy your down time out on the water or travelling like these owners have, without the risk of coming home to a jungle.

There is still room to add your own stamp, in terms of plants and landscaping, but the killer workload is all done here, with new houses and big renovations like this one, now blowing out big time, in terms of time, by years and years, and in terms of costs too, by hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Having sold knockdowns on Ungala Road for $1.65M and $1.625M respectively and others closer to the highway, not the beach, selling for $1.1M and $1.2M, being able to buy all done and move in ready is pure gold!

Otherwise you will be stuck paying rent for years on end, while you wait to build, and living in a dump while you get plans drawn up, approved and priced by builders, leaves a lot to be desired, and then there's council and the long wait for your finished product!

This is one heck of a lot of house, in one heck of a location, with one heck of a lot of garaging, and yet it isn't asking for a heck of a lot of money, especially considering what it would cost to do over, and what we have sold land, and homes in need of major renovation for nearby!

A one off you won't find anywhere else, this home should definitely be on your list of must see property
