Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

Planning
Planning data is being calculated
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.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
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
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 3,031 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.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $681/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. 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.
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 Gilmour Property Group WAWhat a little treasure! This is one of the last Railway Cottages in Chidlow which was built in 1915 and is situated across the road from where the railway tracks used to be. A short walk away and you have the Chidlow Tavern, Pharmacy, Café and Post Office/Newsagency. At the Growers Market on Rosedale Road, there is the local butcher and fuel depot.
> Weatherboard and Iron cottage
> 2 beds, plus sleepout
> Updated bathroom with inside W/C
> Various outdoor sheds
> Large mostly cleared level 3031sqm block
> 2 road access (Herbert and Wilcox Street)
The cottage consists of 2 bedrooms plus a sleepout, cosy lounge with slow combustion heater and split system air conditioner. The kitchen/dining area is very basic, but has a Metters wood stove for cooking and heating and there is a 15amp power box on the wall for a future stove installation. There is no hot water in the kitchen, but there is power under the sink for a HWS to be installed. The bathroom has been updated and includes an inside toilet and the original toilet is still fully functional in the back yard. The décor inside the cottage now is very light and inviting with cream painted walls and modern look roller blinds on all the windows.
Chidlow is located approximately 45 kilometres from Perth, 12 minute drive to Mundaring Town Centre for Supermarkets, Doctors etc and about a 25 minute drive to Midland where you have Hospitals, Train Station and Shopping Complexes. In Chidlow itself, there is a Kindergarten and Primary School and Eastern Hills High School is a 5 minute drive away in Mt. Helena.
The iconic Lake Leschenaultia is approximately 3 kilometres away for that refreshing swim in summer.
The block has two road accesses. The cottage is situated close to Herbert Street and the rear of the block faces Willcox Street. The property would suit a potential purchaser that would want to build their dream home on the back part of the block facing Willcox Street and then perhaps rent out the cottage to supply an income. The cottage could also be used for an artists/pottery studio or anyone wanting to work from home with the peace and quiet of their own space. This property has a lot of potential for the astute purchaser. This is real country style living, but still so close to suburbia.
If only the wonderful jarrah floorboards could talk . I am sure that they would be able to tell the story of history gone by.
