Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
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.

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 is recorded. Suburb median rent $579/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
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 Nest Property HobartThis remarkable tuck pointed, double fronted, solid brick home was constructed in the 1890s with great attention to detail. There are twelve foot ceilings (3.6 metres), open fire places with mantle and grate, ornate cornices, ceiling roses, lead light windows, and decorative timber mouldings. The room sizes are very generous throughout. One bathroom has been gutted ready for renovation, however, there are also two remaining bathrooms (one downstairs).
This home has only had two owners, and was constructed by Mr John Swan, who built the majority of homes on Swan Street, which was subdivided in 1890 from a 7 acre parcel of land owned by Mr Swan. Further up the street is a right of way to Newdegate Street, which used to be named Providence Gully, characterised by small farms, hop fields, market gardens and orchards, now home to the popular Providence Café.
This home has a lower level maids quarters which has a separate power meter and which can be used as a flat. In the seventies, the home had a simple two-storey addition to the rear, however, this portion now needs substantial renovation or rebuilding.
Generally very solid and sound, this character home has a sandstone foundation and immaculate brickwork and detailing. The roof was refastened and painted approximately six years ago. The home was rewired in the eighties.
Enjoying a larger land area for North Hobart, plus a substantial view towards the city, this lovely home has enormous potential. Benefits include; plenty of off street parking, walking distance to the city, Hill St grocer, all North Hobart amenities, and the State cinema. It’s only one mile from the G.P.O, and handy to the Friends School, St Mary’s and Mount Stuart Primary School.
