Given the $870,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $870,000(Listing record · 2 July 2026)
  • CalculationLand 808 m² against a 110 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationAsk is 12% below the Kaleen median recorded sale ($989,000, n=10, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Kaleen's advertised median rent ($460/wk), implied gross yield would be 2.75% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.

Stamp duty and transfer fees: Australian Capital Territory schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Capital growth

ACT

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 $460/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.7%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. 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. This jurisdiction has no comparable official bond series in the free set.

  • 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.

Tumbled blonde brick, casement timber framed windows, and a long front veranda create an inviting first impression. This light and spacious three bedroom home enjoys an easy open flow, spilling through glass sliders to a generous, level backyard. Contemporary updates sit comfortably alongside vintage character, while deep timber accents add warmth and depth throughout.

The home sits behind a generous sweep of established gardens with a long driveway leading to a separate double garage tucked privately within the block.

Well mulched garden beds, established trees and a broad granite parking bay create a lovely sense of privacy.

Within, curved arches and generous proportions create an immediate feeling of ease. Natural light pours into the living spaces through expansive windows, while the open layout gives everyone room to spread out. Soft carpeting keeps the formal living comfortable, with a generous lounge and dining space that easily adapts to everything from quiet evenings to family celebrations.

The central family hub combines the kitchen, living and dining, with glass sliders opening onto the outdoors and creating an easy connection between inside and out. The kitchen is brightened by a pop of red alongside warm patterned tiling, embracing its retro charm while remaining wonderfully functional. Excellent storage and a practical layout make everyday living simple, while the surrounding living spaces encourage relaxed family life and easy entertaining.

The master bedroom has double built in robes and plenty of natural light. Both additional bedrooms deliver built in robes and all three bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with a bathtub and a separate toilet. The bathroom has been updated and serves up a generous vanity alongside fun patterned tiling that feels in sync with the elegant vintage character of the home.

Adding even more practicality is the spacious laundry with excellent storage and direct outdoor access. Comfort is assured year round with ducted heating and an electric wall heater. Outside, the expansive, level backyard offers plenty of room to make your own. A combination of paved entertaining areas and generous lawn creates a space that is ready to enjoy today while offering endless scope for those wanting to add their own touch over time. Whether it's space for children and pets, a productive veggie garden or future landscaping plans, there is room to grow.

Completing the picture is the separate double garage, privately positioned at the rear of the block.

Positioned in one of Belconnen's most established suburbs, Kaleen is loved for its leafy streets, green open spaces and everyday convenience. The home is located close to St Michaels and Kaleen Primary schools, and is moments from Kaleen Plaza, local churches, parks and walking trails.
