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.

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.
The official layer maps a heritage listed area on this parcel, intersecting about 99.8% of it (Vicmap Planning, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Verify the extent against the title before relying on unaffected land.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
VICZoned GENERAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE · R1Z (ZN). Official parcel area about 1,942 m². Dual occupancy looks constrained by site overlays or terrain. Two-lot subdivision looks unlikely on the loaded constraints. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. Zoning and lot facts are a starting point, not proof this lot outperforms the suburb. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Heritage constraint may block demolition or dual occupancy even on a large block. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. Official parcel about 1,942 m² — land size can look like optionality. What reduces it: DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTIONS PLAN OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1; NEIGHBOURHOOD CHARACTER OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 6; DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 11. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $495/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. Heritage constraints are a maintenance and alteration cost, not usually a rent premium by themselves.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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
Loaded constraints look like they kill a naive land-size story. Pay house money, or walk, until a planner confirms a pathway.
Detail
Official parcel about 1,942 m² — land size can look like optionality. What reduces it: DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTIONS PLAN OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1; NEIGHBOURHOOD CHARACTER OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 6; DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 11. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack.
Nearby competing dwellings and net yield are still unknown.
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.

It showcases an inspired combination of high-end elegance, period features, advanced home automation, a balcony or terrace off almost every room and a myriad of magnificent internal/external living, sleeping and entertaining options. Featuring stunning original fireplaces, bay windows, soaring ceilings, leadlight windows and intricate ceiling details, Gladswood offers indulgent contemporary accommodation with exceptional character and ultimate flexibility.
• Breathtaking Edwardian mansion c1904
• Approx. 1940sqm on Rothwell Hill peak
• Six living options, two kitchens, two bars
• Dual master suites, home theatre & wine cellar
• Pool/spa, poolhouse, designer gardens & triple garage
Every space is distinctly unique and versatile, with an almost endless list of highlights including a lavish master suite on both the ground and first floor (one with private kitchen, one with study, both with ensuites), two huge rumpus rooms (one with wet bar), an abundance of formal and casual living and study areas and a gorgeous central dining room adjacent to the granite-bench chef’s kitchen and butler’s pantry. At lower ground, yet another entertaining space is on offer with an air conditioned home theatre and temperature-controlled wine cellar. Some of the finer details to be noted include new carpet throughout the front and all six bedrooms, new paintwork to many sections of the home, a newly installed car lift converting the double garage to triple, extensive smart home and CCTV upgrades, Angelo Po commercial-grade cooking appliances, four bathrooms in total plus three separate powder rooms, 12-zone Sonos system, automated irrigation and remote-access security system, zoned ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning and double-glazed windows. Beyond the lavish interior awaits a private entertainer’s oasis, situated around the fully-tiled swimming pool and spa with heating and in-floor cleaning, complete with a heated undercover alfresco, kitchenette, powder room and loft space converted to a gym. With the added advantage of an internally-accessed double garage (via Roxburgh Street), secure double carport and additional off-street parking, this is a truly extraordinary family home at one of the finest addresses in Ascot Vale.
