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.

Official property report
The original government planning document for this property. Sign in to view or download the PDF. Districts facts are a separate GIS extract and may not include every statement in the report.
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.
The official layer maps a bushfire risk zone on this parcel, intersecting about 99.8% of it (Vicmap Planning, retrieved 2 Sept 2026). Verify the extent against the title before relying on unaffected land.
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
VICZoned TRANSPORT ZONE 2 - PRINCIPAL ROAD NETWORK · TRZ2 (ZN). Official parcel area about 1,139 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.
Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. Official parcel about 1,139 m² — land size can look like optionality. What reduces it: SIGNIFICANT LANDSCAPE OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1; BUSHFIRE MANAGEMENT OVERLAY. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $629/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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 Bell Real Estate OlindaThey say location is everything…and here, you can practically smell the espresso drifting from Storehouse Roastery and see the parmas hitting the pass at Kelly’s, just across the road.
Welcome to “Meridan” - an old soul with stories in her walls, ready for someone with vision (and maybe a trusty toolkit) to write her next chapter.
Set behind traditional iron gates on a “hills flat” quarter-acre (approx. 1128m²), the home whispers of a circa 1930 art deco era, with utterly gorgeous ceiling roses and cornices that could tell tales if only they spoke. Sure, she needs a bit of love. You might strip her right back and start anew - or maybe you’ll see the potential in what’s already here: lofty ceilings, picture windows, five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dine-in kitchen, and a central living room with an original brick fireplace begging to be brought back to life.
A former garage has been reimagined as a series of multi-purpose rooms - once used as offices, now ripe for transformation into extra bedrooms, a creative studio, guest space or even a garage once more. At the rear, a relatively new deck opens to a generous backyard with a lemon tree, sunshine, and all the makings of a classic Hills lifestyle: chooks, a veggie patch, a few fruit trees, and barefoot adventures.
There’s ample off-street parking (room for the van or boat), a rear workshop shed with concrete floor, ducted heating, and all the village life you love within walking distance - Olinda, Mount Dandenong, cafés, gardens, and the #668 bus just steps away.
“Meridan” may be a mystery - but her potential is crystal clear.
