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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $2,600,000 (30 Nov 2020).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Hobart (last 5 years) with land size: median $4,930/m² of land (n=17). 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

TAS

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Planning 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.

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 $568/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

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

  • 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.

‘Lumeah’ stunning historical retreat

Nestled behind an elegant façade and steeped in history, ‘Lumeah' circa 1847 is an impressive, privately positioned heritage residence surrounded by verdant established grounds. An extensive renovation by the current owners seamlessly combines classic original features with sensitively implemented contemporary updates to create a tranquil retreat of proportions rarely found on the city fringe.

A sunny north easterly position makes the home warm and inviting, with a series of generously proportioned rooms each with garden, city, or waterfront views, offering multiple living spaces and a flexible floorplan suited to a range of accommodation requirements. The entry level accessed from Hampden Road offers spacious living with interconnecting lounge and dining, separate formal living room and the kitchen. With space for casual dining, the kitchen tastefully melds into the historic surrounds without compromising on modern convenience.

The sheltered rear verandah is an iconic part of the home's architecture. A series of rooms leading off this structure accommodate a double bedroom, central bathroom, additional bedroom or study, laundry facilities and storage space. A staircase to the upper level reveals the master suite with ensuite bathroom and walk in robe and two further double bedrooms.

Read the full description

The lower ground floor comprises an entirely self-contained apartment consisting of living, kitchen/dining, double bedroom and bathroom. A second double bedroom and bathroom with freestanding bathtub are located off the verandah, along with storage and two additional rooms. A stone walled cellar featuring an early barrel chute is also located on this level completing the floorplan.

A Hobart landmark with a long and rich history, Lumeah was originally built as a grand residence and officer's club. A charming and interesting mix of refined and rustic elements have been retained throughout the home's renovation with much preserved heritage to admire. Multiple fireplaces, servant's bells, a double cast iron cooking range with original tiles, exposed convict brick and stone walls, wrought iron accent on the verandah and a tessellated tile entrance all enhance the character and ambience of the property. Extensive restoration work preserves these original features for years to come whilst upgrades to the plumbing, wiring, lighting, insulation, and heating provides modern comfort and amenity.

The rambling, old world garden with brick floored potting shed complements the home beautifully. Picturesque with magnificent mature Magnolias, Maples, Japanese Cherry and Wisteria, there is space to relax and entertain outdoors. A garage and off street parking for two additional vehicles is also contained within the grounds.

Desirably located within a stone's throw of the CBD, Hobart's Waterfront and the cosmopolitan Salamanca strip, Lumeah is an extraordinary offering of a substantial, heritage holding in a highly sought after locale. A truly rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional property and become custodian of an enduring piece of Tasmania's history.
