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?

Confidence: low

Zoned Suburban Neighbourhood · SN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 936 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Street frontage and true lot geometry are not confirmed without open cadastre. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. 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 $613/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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownlow

    Zoned Suburban Neighbourhood · SN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 936 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.

  • 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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 936 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.

Listing material

Listed by Harris Real Estate Glenelg

A deeply nurturing family home with nature and necessity on call.

Close the door and Main Road becomes a distant memory in this long-held family home that unfolds into something much larger and more accommodating than you imagined on its surprisingly deep parcel.

You can just tell this unpretentious home nurtured years of cherished memories across its vast 3-bedroom footprint with multiple living zones at its beck and call.

There's the front sitting room that would lap up a family Monopoly-a-thon, a quiet night in with a new Netflix series or a date with a good book.

Read the full description

Then there's the rear family room that open its arms to life's glorious daily chaos and still leaves plenty of room to bring back the long lost art of families dinners around the table.

Whatever is on the menu will be a joy to prepare in the storage-laden kitchen that will keep on keeping on until you give it a value-adding modern spruce up.

Work from home? The study obliges in this ducted-comforted home with three beautifully sized bedrooms, none better than the ensuited main sitting pretty at the front.

At the rear, an expansive entertainer's patio with a weather-deflecting pitched-roof pavilion has Christmas lunch covered (literally) at the head of a huge backyard with room for a pool and further expansion.

Move in and love it for what it is and what it could be within a short pause of Blackwood's buzzing centre, Belair National Park, a range of quality schools/colleges and the CBD itself. Close the door and get busy living.

More to love:

• Lock-up garage plus additional off-street parking

• Quiet within

• Flexible layout

• Separate laundry with direct outdoor access

• Loads of storage

• Garden shed and generous backyard with space for future pool or extension

• Ducted air conditioning for year-round comfort

• Versatile study/home office

• Expansive covered patio for all-weather entertaining

• The valuable scope to update

• Moments from Belair National Park walking trails, playgrounds and picnic spots

• A short drive to Blackwood's buzzing cafes, restaurants and shopping precinct

• Zoned for Belair Primary and Blackwood High, with nearby access to St John's Grammar and Scotch College

• Quick access to Belair and Blackwood train stations for an easy CBD commute

• Close to recreation hubs including Belair Golf Club and Apex Park

• Around 20 minutes to the city
