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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 1,700 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Guildford (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,637/m² of land (n=33). 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

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,700 m² — that is not official geometry. 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 $656/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

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,700 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • 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.

C1852 Lieutenant DuCane's Residence - SOLD BY HEIDI McATEE - 0406 321 770

SOLD BY HEIDI McATEE - 0406 321 770

Built in the day when deals were sealed with a handshake, when the tapestry of life consisted of horse and cart, layered dresses, Victorian and cloche hats, this splendorous 1852 character homestead, still very much entwined in its bygone era and combined with various modifications and additions throughout the generations has now come to market for a new custodian for the first time in many years.

Spanning a rare and significant 1700 square metres of land (yes, 1700 sqm!) which is close to the old half acre, or one rood, twenty-seven and two-tenths perches or thereabouts.

Read the full description

Steep in history this residence showcases elaborate detail from its era and is entrusted as a rare example forming a significant part of the remnant building stock that is the fabric of Guildford's historic town. The original craftsmanship was constructed by convicts under supervision by royal engineer, Lieutenant Edmund Du Crane in 1852. The house was built with the front facing the hills and the kitchen and rear facing Meadow Street. The original double roof of shingle has since been replaced and the original interior and exterior walls are mostly three (3) courses of brick.

Sir Hector Cornthwaite Rason later lived in the house. He was MP for a number of years, Minister for Justice and the seventh Premier for Western Australia. His son Ernest Hector was a returned Guildford Anzac.

Lt. Du Cane wrote to his mother in April 1852 "I am building myself a house consisting of two rooms, a big office, a kitchen and servant room, stable and garden. It faces from the road, looking up the Helena Valley to a distant glimpse of the Darling Hills".

This fine home has expanded over the years to feature 4 bedrooms (one adjoining another) plus two bathrooms, a massive family living room with fireplace, large office or second living, large formal dining with fireplace, a separate studio/store outdoors, outdoor pool & pool house, double undercover parking, garage and workshop/shed (formerly original stables).

Historic Features Include:

• wide verandahs

• impressive leadlight in entry and hallway

• gracious formal lounge/sitting room with fireplace and views to gardens and pool

• formal dining

• high ornate ceilings

• solar hot water system

• working bore

Nestled in the prime heart of Guildford among many period homes and buildings including neighbouring Garrick Theatre (C1853) which was also designed and constructed as part of the Guildford Convict Depot by Lt. Du Cane (Lt. Du Cane designed and supervised the construction of most of the buildings associated with the convict depot in Guildford, as well as building the first bridge over the Swan River at Guildford at the site of the public wharf in Meadow Street). The Garrick Theatre still operates today and is the oldest and continual running community theatre group in metropolitan Western Australia.
