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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $477,000 (5 Nov 2020).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 1,794 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Geeveston (last 5 years) with land size: median $356/m² of land (n=53). 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

TAS

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $404/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.

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 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. 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.

Listing material

Listed by Harcourts Huon Valley

Family Federation

Here is a great opportunity to secure a large family home which is close to town yet has the feeling of a much larger country small holding. The block is 1794m2 and includes wonders such as espaliered fruit trees, a chicken house, veggie beds and multiple sheds including a large 6mx9m galvanised garage and a character filled small timber barn which has been turned into a great entertaining space and work shed. So if you have been looking for a small farm but can't find what you want in your price range, this could be the one for you.

Inside the home you are greeted with some lovely character features such as the pressed tin ceiling in the kitchen, multiple fireplaces and wonderful original timber doors and floorboards, however the home has had some upgrades over the years and benefits from modernisations such as lower maintenance aluminium windows and concrete verandahs, of which there are two to choose from, allowing a chance to sit in the sun or relax in the shade on the more intimate side verandah. There is also a fantastic large double carport which is fully enclosed and attached to the back of the home, it's currently set up for entertaining so has some flexible uses for whatever you prefer.

Most of the work has been done on the interior of this 3 bedroom home, 2 of which have built-in-robes. The bathroom has had a recent spruce-up with fresh paint and tap fittings, in fact a few rooms have had a recent paint and some of the walls in the living areas have been opened up to allow for better flow and light. There is a cozy but sun-filled reading nook at the end of the dining room and the kitchen has a breakfast bar large enough to seat 3. The lounge room is very spacious and light filled as it's north facing, heated by a cozy wood heater it enjoys views over the town of Geeveston, which is only a 5 -10 minute walk away and offers all the services of a small country town, including some wonderfully delicious cafes.

An added bonus in this home is a large attic room, this would make for a great kids playroom, or a place for guests to come and stay, or even a craft room or art studio, let your imagination flow with ideas as to what would work for you.

As you can see, the offerings here are many and the options and potential almost endless. So, if you've been hunting for that dream country character home with some space and productive land, this could be for you.

Come along to one of our Open Homes or book a private inspection anytime.
