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

Why this property?

  • CalculationLand 1,300 m² against a 243 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Kingswood (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,349/m² of land (n=33). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.
  • FactZoned Established Neighbourhood (EN) under the Planning and Design Code.(Location SA · 31 Aug 2026)

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. 1No 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

SA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: low

Zoned Established Neighbourhood · EN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 1,281 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. Zoning and lot facts are a starting point, not proof this lot outperforms the suburb. 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.” Street frontage and true lot geometry are not confirmed without open cadastre. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. 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 $604/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. 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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownlow

    Zoned Established Neighbourhood · EN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 1,281 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.

  • 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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 1,281 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

    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.

Open the Door to a Graceful Bungalow with Big Ambitions

Auction Sat, 22nd Nov - 10am (USP)

Facing the ever-beautiful Balham Avenue, this long-held character bungalow spreads its wings far and wide and still leaves more roaming room on its 1300sqm plot than you've ever dreamed of, just ten short minutes from Adelaide's CBD.

Time is so kind to a home like this; ageing like a fine wine across its grand north-facing formal zones, huge bedrooms and a series of periodic updates - kitchens and bathrooms included - that pay charming homage to the home's past.

Read the full description

Its future is brighter than the sunroom and separate fourth bedroom overlooking a rear garden and unmarked lawned tennis court so vast that a bold addition and pool wouldn't put a dent in that unmistakable sense of freedom.

Open the door:

⁃ A timeless character bungalow tightly held by the one family for decades

⁃ A substantial 1300sqm (approx.) parcel with an incredible sense of scale, privacy and potential

⁃ Elegant north-facing formal zones framed by leadlight windows, high ceilings and ornate fireplaces

⁃ Period craftsmanship on show, including solid timber floors and decorative ceilings

⁃ Huge bedrooms that speak to the era's generosity of space and proportion

⁃ A light-filled kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops, Miele and Smeg appliances, farmhouse sink and checkerboard flooring adding playful vintage charm

⁃ Updated bathroom with freestanding bath, frameless glass shower and timeless black-and-white tiling

⁃ Multiple living zones including a charming rear sunroom and a spacious 4th bedroom overlooking the expansive garden

⁃ A sprawling lawn that could be a tennis court the moment you remark its lines. Net and equipment included with the sale

⁃ Established trees, garden shed and plenty of room for a pool, tennis court or creative reimagining

Close the door on:

⁃ Endless scrolling for the right blend of character, land and location

⁃ The idea that big blocks this close to the city and schools are a thing of the past

⁃ Long commutes and gridlocked mornings; you're just a beeline down Unley Road from the CBD

⁃ Racing the morning clock when the kids can walk or safely pedal themselves to school (Unley High, Mitcham Girls and Concordia College included)

The Kingswood brief is simple: good schools, green streets and short drives. It answers with the added bonus of being within moments of Mitcham Square, Scotch and Mercedes Colleges, the trails of Brownhill Creek and cosmopolitan Unley and Hyde Park precincts. You're exactly where you want to be. This could be anything.
