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 665 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. 2 development applications on this parcel. Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Under Assessment); Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Decision Made) Latest lodgement recorded 2026-07-22. These are this lot’s applications, not the neighbourhood pipeline. 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 $529/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.

4 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownlow

    Zoned Established Neighbourhood · EN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 665 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 665 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

    Knownmedium

    2 development applications on this parcel. Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Under Assessment); Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Decision Made) Latest lodgement recorded 2026-07-22. These are this lot’s applications, not the neighbourhood pipeline.

  • 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.

Timeless Character Meets Contemporary Family Living

Beautifully reimagined for modern family living, this exceptional stone-fronted character bungalow showcases the perfect balance of timeless elegance and contemporary design. Set on approximately 638m² in one of Adelaide's most tightly held inner-northern suburbs, the home has undergone a comprehensive renovation and extension since 2020, creating a residence that is as functional as it is beautiful.

From the moment you arrive, the home's charming stone character façade sets the tone for what lies beyond. Inside, high ceilings, Baltic pine floorboards through the hallway and lounge, and beautifully retained period features blend effortlessly with the quality and comfort of modern living.

Designed with families in mind, the flexible floorplan offers four generous bedrooms plus a separate lounge that could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, formal sitting room or home office. The spacious master suite provides a private retreat, complete with a walk-in robe and a beautifully appointed ensuite. The Master Bedroom and Ensuite both have remote-operated Velux skylights.

Read the full description

A defining feature of the home is the stunning, vast hallway, providing transition between the original bungalow and the contemporary rear extension. An additional remote – operated Velux skylight allows natural light throughout. Elegant steel-framed doors create a striking architectural statement, leading into an expansive open-plan living area where soaring raked ceilings and large glazed doors with highlight windows fill the space with natural light while creating a seamless connection to the backyard.

The kitchen, dining and living areas have been designed as the true heart of the home-perfect for everyday family life or entertaining on any scale.

Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully designed with comfort and practicality in mind, each featuring a bath, shower and toilet, while underfloor heating provides a touch of luxury during the cooler months.

Year-round comfort is assured with reverse-cycle ducted air conditioning throughout, while extensive upgrades to the home's electrical and plumbing systems mean the hard work has already been done.

Outside, the practicality continues with outstanding vehicle accommodation. A substantial 9.2m × 6.2m double garage/workshop is complemented by a separate three-car undercover carport, offering exceptional space for vehicles, storage, trailers or hobbies.

Energy efficiency is another standout feature, with a substantial solar system supported by four 5kWh batteries (approximately 20kWh of battery storage), helping to reduce ongoing power costs.

Families will appreciate the highly sought-after school zoning, with the home zoned for Walkerville Primary School, Nailsworth Primary School, Adelaide Botanic High School and Adelaide High School.

Perfectly positioned just minutes from the Adelaide CBD and within easy reach of Prospect Road, Walkerville Terrace, local cafés, restaurants, boutique shopping and beautiful parks, this is a rare opportunity to secure a thoughtfully renovated character home in one of Adelaide's most desirable locations.

Homes of this calibre-where timeless character, premium finishes, generous accommodation and contemporary family living come together so effortlessly-are seldom offered. This is a residence you'll be proud to call home for many years to come.
