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 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
TASPlanning 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 $520/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 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.
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.

Listing material
Listed by Peterswald for PropertyAuction Location: on site.
Privately positioned and hidden from view at the turn of bend number three is this immaculately preserved circa 1958 home, held in the same family since its construction and offered to market for the first time. One of the finest examples of mid-century architecture and design in Hobart, the property also showcases arguably the best views of the River Derwent, City and Tasman Bridge from its elevated vantage point.
Built for his family by well- known local Hobart builder Ray Harper - a name that is synonymous with the Marine Laboratory in Taroona and the refurbishment of Wrest Point, exceptional craftsmanship is displayed throughout. Although considered avant-garde at its time of construction, this style of architecture has proven longevity and relevance, with the well-designed floorplan easily accommodating contemporary living some 59 years later.
With many bespoke finishes one would expect a builder to include in his own family home, Harper built his study just off the entry foyer so he could receive clients without encroaching on the main house. From here, through the front door guests are greeted by an internal window through the living room wall that captures a breathtaking vista of the river, Wrest Point and the marina at the Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania.
Solar passive in design, the home enjoys a northerly aspect and all day sun. The generous living room is lined with myrtle and features a sandstone open fireplace and has original anodised light fittings. Large picture windows frame the captivating view, with a door opening onto the undercover tiled deck offering a sunny and relaxing spot to watch the comings and goings of the Derwent. The adjacent open plan dining room and kitchen also enjoys deck access. Largely original, with custom joinery and a walk in pantry, the views from this room are also a sight to behold.
Wake up to a spectacular vista in the master suite featuring a walk in robe and access to the two-way ensuite, cleverly disguised behind unassuming wardrobe doors. The second double bedroom also accesses the ensuite and has BIR and the third double bedroom has a built in desk and sandstone open fire place. A family bathroom with original 50s tiles completes the floorplan on the upper level.
The staircase to the lower level reveals a utility area with laundry, second WC and storage room opening into a large workshop and garage with automatic roller door providing secure OSP and most importantly, vehicular access to the rear of the property which is a rarity in Mount Nelson. A combination of electric and wood fired central heating ensures year round comfort. With low maintenance gardens at the front and a well fenced terraced rear yard, an enormous fruiting grape fruit tree is a testament to the homes sunny and sheltered location!
This much loved family home has been well cared for over the years and occupies a sought after position on the ever popular bends. Close to local schools including The Hutchins School, public transport, Utas and Sandy Bay; for purchasers with a love and appreciation of mid-century architecture there could be no better proposition.
