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

Why this property?

  • CalculationLand 1,246 m² against a 285 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Coromandel Valley (last 5 years) with land size: median $906/m² of land (n=87). 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

SA

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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $667/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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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.

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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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

    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.

It's all Class!

SET to SELL - On Tuesday 17th October @3pm (unless sold beforehand).

$1,200,000 to $1,320,000

And what a wonderful place to live. At the end of a secluded no-through street, with a reserve on one side and peaceful views to the hills on the other. It is truly unique.

Read the full description

The home was built by Alan Sheppard Constructions in 1997. The flowing split-level design and big-window outlook from just about every room in the home is really quite special, while the concrete and full-brick construction is superior! A rare build quality today.

The location and position are both superb. Getting to Blackwood shopping is a short drive down Coromandel Parade, and around the corner - enjoy the benefits of the Sturt River Linear reserve environment.

This magnificent home presents beautifully, it is all ready for you to move in and get on with living! And the 1246sqm of land and gardens is simply glorious.

There are four bedrooms - or three and a large home-office retreat. The floorplan is ideal for the growing family, and may also appeal to couples searching for a spacious quality, and who love to entertain and be at home in the gardens. And live with peaceful views!

There is a certain grandness about the formal entry - it is warm and inviting, and as you step down into the formal lounge and dining areas, you can feel the solid brick quality and appreciate the sense of space with three-metre ceilings! Large windows bring in the outdoors in every direction. It is not a lounge and dining area just reserved for those special occasions - imagine cosying in around a new wood-fired combustion heater in the winter months, or lounging in complete comfort with luxurious soft furnishings and a window outlook to greenery - you just want to be here every day.

The main bedroom is adjacent the formal entry - the ensuite has a double vanity, large shower alcove and a deep-soaking spa-bath, while the big walk-in robe is fitted with extra storage.

The home-office is complete with built-in desk, storage and shelving. There is plenty of room for a chaise or day chair and works perfectly as a private sitting/library room - it could easily be bedroom four.

At the other end of the home in their own wing, are bedrooms two and three - both are queen size rooms with built-in storage. One looks out across private backyard gardens, while the other looks out to garden and hills views. There is a separate toilet to the main bathroom, and a large laundry-utility room. And there is a guest toilet with a separate vanity off the hallway.

The entire home has ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, and a 5kW solar system with 13kW battery storage.

The all-new Davis & Park kitchen is a delight! Beautifully appointed and again, all class! There is excellent storage & display cabinetry, a plumbed double-fridge, two Siemens ovens with a matching 900mm wide induction cooktop, a built-in microwave, and a Bosch dishwasher. Splashbacks with concealed lighting contrast in a perfect way with exquisite black granite benchtops - there really is only one solid stone surface!

The spacious family living and dining areas are open plan to the kitchen - everyday dining will accommodate the largest of tables and is conveniently connected to the kitchen, while the fabulous family-TV area is a couple of steps up on a higher level. In every direction, there is a view! How wonderful to be able to look through the home to the backyard gardens on one side, and a panorama of big-sky and the Valley hills on the other. Imagine, through all the seasons - being in the kitchen, mornings and evenings around the table, or kicking back in front of the TV ... in every way you are living with views.

It's Springtime, so open the doors to a cosy alfresco, or out to the backyard entertaining area where a large covered pergola will be the place to be at the weekend. It is the perfect complement to the main living areas, and will come into its own when entertaining with great space for a large table and more! The backyard, with its impressive masonry wall that spans two boundaries, open lawn areas, and surrounding gardens is extremely private. Love and enjoy it as it is, or if a pool is on the wish-list - this could be the ideal setting.

The double garage has secure internal entry and a roller door for easy access to the backyard. There is also a wood store, irrigation, rainwater storage, a garden shed, and vegetable gardens.

Imagine living here.

Make it yours and move in before Christmas.
