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 unavailable for this jurisdiction (no_adapter:QLD)
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
QLDZoning is not available (no_adapter). 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 (no_adapter). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $524/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. 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.
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.

UnknownZoning is not available (no_adapter).
Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Honest achievable rent

Rental supply pressure
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?

Lot-level flood

This lot's DA history

Listing material
Listed by Inspire Real Estate CairnsPicture a Saturday morning.
You take the short walk down to the boardwalk while the day's still cool. The sand's quiet — just you, the Coral Sea, and 1.8km of beach most people never find, because they're all up the highway fighting for a park at Palm Cove.
That's the trade Holloways Beach offers. Close enough to Cairns for the convenience, far enough to feel like life finally took a breath. Quiet streets.
Local cafes. Weekend markets. The kind of suburb that's still relaxed, residential, and real — the one the tourists drive straight past.
130 Wistaria Street is the home that fits it.
You feel it the moment you pull in. The pool sits right out the front, glinting behind the fence — not hidden away, part of the welcome. Beside it, the covered entertaining area is already set for the barbecue, the cold drink, the friends who stay longer than they planned.
The yard's fully fenced and landscaped, so the kids and the dog can run riot while you stay in your chair. This is where your weekends are going to happen.
Step inside and it's cool, open, and styled ready to move into. The whole house is air-conditioned — not one room, all of it — so when the wet sets in and it's sticky out, you don't think about it once. Open-plan living and dining flows off a kitchen with stainless steel appliances and real bench space, the spot the whole family ends up anyway.
Three large bedrooms to spread the family out. A separate study for work, homework, or whatever the world wants from you online.
And at the end of a long one? Two bathrooms — with a spa in the ensuite that's yours alone.
Then there's the shed. And this is no garden box — it's a 9m x 4m powered cave, room enough for the boat, the trailer, the tools, and whatever project you've been dreaming up but never had the space to start. The ramp into Richters Creek is just up at Acacia Street, so the boat's wet in minutes.
The pool, the beach, the slow weekends — they're not a renovation away or a postcode out of reach. They're here, styled and waiting for your family to make them yours.
Come and see it before someone else does.

Why Holloways Beach?
- One of Cairns' most relaxed northern beach suburbs — roughly 11.2km north of the CBD, tucked between Machans Beach and Yorkeys Knob.
- It's the coastal lifestyle that's getting harder to find. Quiet sandy shores, foreshore parklands, and walking and cycling paths that run for kilometres. A stinger-resistant swimming enclosure near the beach midpoint. Real cafes and restaurants with locals in them, not tour groups. A convenience store, a community hall, boat ramp access at Acacia Street, and the big shop sorted at Smithfield up the road.
- Families land well here too — Machans Beach State School and Caravonica State School for the little ones, Smithfield State High and Cairns State High for the older kids.
- Less tourist-heavy than the beaches further north. Quieter than the city. Connected, but calm.
130 Wistaria Street, Holloways Beach. Pool out the front. Beach down the street. Come and see what the tourists are missing.
