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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,280,000 (3 June 2024).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 903 m² against a 125 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Leura (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,097/m² of land (n=120). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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.

Capital growth

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $662/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Listing material

Open Home Cancelled

1960's architecture has never looked so good! The award winning Upper Mountains Building team at DC Construction have completely transformed this original 60's brick cottage into a stylish home that include some classic throwbacks of yesteryear!

From the flooring to the ridge-capping, everything has been improved, upgraded, renovated & redone!

Entering the property you are greeted by vaulted ceilings and show stopping Tallowwood floors that flow through the impressive open plan kitchen/dining/lounge area and down the hall to the rear entry.

Read the full description

Custom cabinetry & lighting in the kitchen is sure to impress, along with the oversized island bench (perfect for entertainers), as well as the high-end appliances. The dining/lounge area has beautiful floor to ceiling timber windows that capture the natural light and picturesque outlook to the established front garden. This space also boasts a Morso slow combustion fire (with slate hearth) and is bordered by floating timber bookshelves.

Heading down the hallway you have a hidden European laundry, main bathroom and three bedrooms (all with BIR's). The main bathroom & ensuite have been meticulously finished and feature mosaic & terrazzo tiles, antique brass tapware, floating cabinetry and the perfect choice of mirrors. The antique brass theme doesn't stop in the wet areas and has been used on the BIR's handles and for the door handles throughout.

Located in arguably one of South Leura's most sought after areas, Abbey Street is tree lined, and one of the only original "wide" streets remaining in Leura. Walking distance to Leura Mall, Leura Train Station, Woolies and an array of medical practices, 16 Abbey Street Leura is going to make a very comfortable downsizer or fabulous weekender for a very lucky buyer(s).
