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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $875,000 (19 Sept 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 425 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Norwood (last 5 years) with land size: median $4,913/m² of land (n=20). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

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

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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $590/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.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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.

Cottage Charm with a Village Backdrop

**To access the property at the open inspections, please park on The Parade and walk up Cairns Street.

Settle into the perfect blend of village living and cottage charm with this well-maintained two bedroom character cottage c1900, tucked just off The Parade. A rare opportunity in the heart of buzzing Norwood Village, it offers enduring charm, exceptional comfort and inviting outdoor spaces.

Beyond the Bluestone doubled-fronted facade with an iron lacework decorated verandah, the leadlight entry sets the tone for a warm and welcoming interior. Period details such as soaring ceilings with deep decorative cornices, ceiling roses, original doors and brass fittings provide instant charm, while thoughtful updates such as plush new carpeting and ducted, zoned reverse cycle air-conditioning ensure everyday comfort and ease.

Read the full description

The elegant hallway leads past the two front double bedrooms and into the heart of the home - the gracious lounge and adjacent dining room. An ornamental fireplace with ornate tile surrounds and handsome timber mantel forms the delightful centrepiece of the lounge, while the broad and graceful arch heralds the entrance to the formal dining area.

Infused with light through the skylight and pretty multi-paned windows, the eat-in kitchen (with dishwasher) boasts ample storage in the timber cabinetry and walk-in pantry, and opens to a pergola-covered, semi-enclosed, paved back verandah. The ideal protected spot for easy outdoor living and entertaining while overlooking the compact lawned backyard soaked in Spring sunshine; while a larger paved area on the Northern side leads to the back gate and through to the shared driveway (possibility to add double gates to drive into your private yard).

Currently home to the old outside W.C. (not in working order), an undercover storage area and garden shed, the backyard holds remarkable potential with space to extend or create an alfresco oasis (subject to Planning Consent).

The combined bathroom/laundry celebrates its heritage style with terracotta-toned tessellated tiled flooring, glorious leadlight window, a freestanding claw-footed bathtub with overhead shower, W.C., two full height built-in cupboards and laundry facilities.

Added features include:-

• New carpeting throughout bedrooms, hallway, lounge & dining

• Split system air-conditioner in kitchen

• Slate flooring in kitchen

• Timber panelled ceilings in kitchen & bathroom/laundry

• Ceiling fans in both bedrooms, lounge & dining rooms

• Pet access in back door

• Potential off street parking

The ultimate village lifestyle awaits with end-of-street access to local favourites like 'Argo on The Parade', the 'European', Bath Hotel and many more cafe and fine dining options, plus cinemas, supermarkets, boutique shops, medical facilities, chemists and bus transport - all just footsteps from your door. Walk to Norwood and Kensington Ovals, leading schools and it's just a few minutes' commute to both the City and Burnside Village.

Whether you're looking for a character-filled home, or renovators looking to reimagine with a contemporary extension tailored to a blue-chip Norwood way of life (STPC), this inviting cottage offers immediate enjoyment and is brimming with outstanding promise.
