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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,230,000 (17 July 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 1,432 m² against a 123 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Darlington (last 5 years) with land size: median $453/m² of land (n=141). 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.
  • FactZoned Other local roads (792) under the MUNDARING.(Landgate SLIP · 31 Aug 2026)

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?

No verification items generated for this record.

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.

Bushfire

The official layer was queried and no bushfire risk zone was detected on this parcel (Landgate SLIP, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

Capital growth

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,432 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. 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 $790/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

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

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.

2 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 1,432 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • 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. 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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 1,435 m² — land size can look like optionality. No material overlays were returned that would explain a discount. That is not proof the price is fair. Nearby DAs, easements, and flood-layer gaps can still explain a cheap-looking listing — those are not all loaded.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. 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

    No DA adapter returned applications 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.

Family Upgrade, Serious Shed

END DATE SALE: ALL OFFERS PRESENTED BY 2PM WEDNESDAY 15TH JULY 2026 (the seller reserves the right to sell prior to the end date without notice).

If you've been waiting for the double whammy of great family home and big bonus extra, this is it. Set on a generous block in highly coveted Darlington, this sweet spot delivers space, flexibility, and that grounded, community-first Hills lifestyle people spend a whole lifetime looking for. Kids can spread out. Dogs can run laps. You've got room to actually host your mates without sacrificing your sanity (or tidiness of your lounge room). The home was built in 1985 and has been thoughtfully, beautifully modernised over time to now showcase an easy, light-filled living with a gorgeous layout. At its heart, a modern open plan connects kitchen, dining, and lounge in one seamless, sun-warmed hub. The kitchen pulls its weight with a clean, contemporary feel, a butler's pantry to hide the chaos, and a layout designed for actual cooking. The North-facing lounge soaks up that natural light, creating a cosy, inviting space you'll gravitate to year-round. Fresh paint throughout lifts everything, while you'll also appreciate the carpet underfoot in the main. This grownup retreat is properly scaled with built-in robes and the two additional bedrooms also have their own storage, plus there's a study so you really don't ever have to drive down the hill if you can WFH. A practical bathroom with bath and shower keeps family life moving, there's a separate WC for convenience, and a modern laundry with a second WC that quietly handles the heavy lifting of rush hour in the mornings.

Then, there's the shed. Not a token workspace, certainly not an afterthought, but a full-scale, engineered, Shire-approved 9x9m powerhouse designed for people who need real space to build, store, fix, or tinker without compromise. You could fit several cars, a caravan project, store a boat, or build a boat, or pretty much anything else you could think of. It's got high clearance, three-phase power, gantry beam for heavy lifting, and dedicated zones for work and storage. This is the kind of setup tradies dream about and it'll change your life when it comes to what's possible from home.

From the sunny kitchen, you'll often find yourself drawn outside to that massive entertainment area; just imagine the soirees you could host here. A decked section with built-in bar sets the tone, while the adjoining paved area gives you flexibility for bigger get-togethers or quieter nights under the Hills sky. Beyond that, a wide, open lawn delivers the kind of backyard of your children's dreams - flat, usable, and fully fenced so the kiddos and their pup can play safely. The separation between garden and shed adds an extra layer of safety and practicality, letting both spaces function exactly as they should. There's side access to make full use of the shed, a double carport attached to it, plus an additional single carport at the front of the property for everyday parking. It's a property that has been considered from every angle, giving you room to live, room to grow, and room to actually use your space the way you've always wanted to.

Bring your people, your dreams, and your projects.
