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.

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: Tasmania schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
No rent is recorded for this listing. Enter a weekly rent to model yield.
Enter a purchase price and weekly rent to calculate yield.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
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
TASPlanning 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.
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 and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.
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 Roberts Real Estate DevonportThere are some views that never get old, and from 16 Highfield Road, you'll enjoy one of the best. Positioned high above the Mersey River on a substantial 1,585m² allotment, this impressive home captures sweeping water views that change by the hour, the season, and the weather. Better still, thanks to its elevated position, these breathtaking outlooks are protected and cannot be built out, ensuring your connection to the river remains uninterrupted for years to come.
From the moment you step inside, the home feels warm, welcoming and instantly connected to its surroundings. Stunning polished Tas Oak floorboards flow through the open plan living, dining and kitchen area, where large windows frame the river and fill the home with natural light. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee, entertaining friends, or unwinding at the end of the day, the ever changing waterfront backdrop is always centre stage.
The beautifully updated kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with Caesarstone benchtops, quality appliances, abundant storage and a generous walk in pantry, making it as practical as it is stylish. Cedar doors open onto the expansive wraparound deck, creating a seamless indoor outdoor lifestyle and providing multiple spaces to relax, entertain and soak in the stunning outlook.
Accommodation is generous throughout, headlined by an exceptionally spacious master retreat complete with walk in robe, ensuite and direct deck access. Wake up to river views and step outside to enjoy the fresh morning air before the day begins. Three additional bedrooms provide flexibility for families and guests, including Bedroom 4, currently configured as an office and craft room. With its own external access, it is the perfect setup for those working from home, running a small business, or simply seeking a private creative space.
The home's bathrooms and laundry have been updated, while thoughtful extras such as underfloor insulation, excellent storage and a projector and screen for movie nights add further comfort and convenience.
Outside, the established gardens create a beautiful, private setting without demanding endless weekends of maintenance. Carefully planned and supported by a zoned irrigation system, the gardens offer colour, texture and interest throughout the year while remaining easy to care for.
Completing the package is a double garage, plenty of off street parking for boats, caravans and visitors, and a location that places you close to walking tracks while still being just minutes from the conveniences of Devonport.
• Master suite featuring a walk-in robe, private ensuite, and direct deck access.
• Separate double garage plus expansive off-street parking for the boat, caravan and trailer.
• Meticulously landscaped gardens with a zoned, smart watering system.
• Underfloor insulation and new wool carpet in all bedrooms.
• Updated bathrooms-nothing left to do but move in.
A home with views like this is rare. A home where those views are protected, the lifestyle is effortless, and every day feels a little more special is rarer still. 16 Highfield Road, Ambleside is an opportunity to secure a premium riverside outlook and a lifestyle you'll never tire of.
