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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $782,000 (25 Jan 2020).(Recorded sale)

What could make it worth more?

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

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 $580/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.

Goldilocks lived here: it's not too big and not too small, but just right

This beautiful light filled home on a quiet tree lined street with a local park and playground a few doors down has been in one family for nearly 40 years and comes on the market as a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Offering a versatile floorplan of three-bedroom plus study, open plan updated kitchen, multiple living spaces, and updated bathroom and laundry as well as gorgeous garden oasis we have no doubt 17 Hastings Rd Colonel Light Gardens will appeal to those starting out, downsizing and those who simply want to get into this coveted location.

Entering through the front gates you discover a landscape garden oasis with stone garden beds, beautiful established plants and trees, lush green lawns and spaces and places to sit, relax and entertain family and friends.

Read the full description

Inside the home the wide entrance hall really makes a statement. With character features such as high and ornate ceilings, timber panelling as well as fireplaces, this home is full of surprises.

At the front of the home you'll find the large master bedroom with feature fireplace and built in robes. The two additional bedrooms are light filled and have large windows that capture the northern sun, whilst one also has a built-in robe. Both bedrooms feature designer blinds that can be pulled up from the bottom or let down from the top; a terrific feature for blocking our light and creating privacy whilst letting the light in.

The home has a versatile design with three living spaces consisting of a spacious lounge with combustion fireplace, dining room with polished floorboards and downlights, and the further lounge with timber panelling and access to the home office/study/ fourth bedroom or what could easily be converted into a large butlers pantry.

The updated open plan kitchen flows seamlessly from these spaces and boasts double sink, dishwasher, stylish wooden benchtops, downlights, skylight and plenty of great storage options as well as access to the alfresco decking that all overlook the gorgeous lush garden.

Through the kitchen you'll find the updated laundry, separate toilet and very stylish and recently renovated bathroom.

One of the many things we love about this home are the large windows that let in the natural light and open the home up to the outdoors. The beautiful established gardens are an absolute feature with auto watering system and garden shed for that extra storage and place to tinker: it's what we call the Goldilocks garden - not too big and not small, but just right.

Heating and cooling is taken care of with ducted evaporative cooling for keeping you cool on the those hot summer nights and radiant heating as well as a combustion fire for taking the chill off the cold winters night.

Perfectly located less than 7km to the CBD, close to public transport, great cafés and some of Adelaide's best private and public schools, the wait for that right home is over. Walking distance to Mitcham Square shopping precinct, beautiful recreation areas such as Kent Reserve, and Mortlock Park. Education options won't be an issue with some of Adelaide's best schools including Colonel Light Gardens Primary School, Cabra Dominican College, Scotch and Mercedes College all close by.

Double length carport
