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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,380,000 (11 Apr 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 620 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Caves Beach (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,207/m² of land (n=109). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $766/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Beachfront Reserve Estate Living, Single Level, Easy Care Exterior, Spacious Open Plan Interior with High Ceilings & Generous Rooms - a Quality Build!

Just a few minutes flat walk and you're on the track to the beach, the Caves Beach Resort Hotel and the duck pond, perfect for those who want to live on the flat, who love to get out and walk the dog or take the kids and grandkids down to the beach with minimal hills on route and no through street traffic.

Quality built, this isn't your typical project home, it's been designed for elegant and spacious living with lovely extra features like high ceilings, big rooms and a feature fireplace.

The bones are excellent and the presentation is fine, but you will have to excuse some yesteryear colour choices, like the blue carpet and curtains and the pastel paint in the bedrooms, but what a difference some Lexicon white makes around the place, it even makes the blue quite bearable.

Read the full description

We can see gorgeous timber flooring being brought in to run from the front door to the back and throughout all the bedrooms as well, which is why we have included some virtual renovation images to help you see how it could look inside ...

Beautifully laid out to capture lots of lovely light and sun, all of the living is orientated towards the North and the East, and wonderful wrap around decks, like the living, enjoy this same perfect aspect and they completely surround the property, creating magnificent outdoor living and entertaining with no mowing maintenance whatsoever, enjoying fantastic cold summer sea breezes and wonderful warm winter sun.

Back inside discover an over sized spacious master suite with walk in robe and generous ensuite with a completely separate rear wing accommodating the other bedrooms, bathroom and separate powder room, with a study or 4th bedroom option also available ...

- Easy flat stroll to pet friendly, top surf beach, local hotel, cafes & Surf Club

- Quality built & brick, but different to a project home, with high feature ceilings

- Love the big double garage, the large open entry & big master with ensuite too

- Appreciate a generous open kitchen that looks out to all the living inside & out

- A big laundry off the kitchen would make a delightful future butler's pantry too

- Love the feature fireplace & the potential to create an office or 4th bedroom

- Appreciate a separate rear bedrooms & bathroom wing with a powder room

- Indoor & outdoor living is blessed by the perfect North East sun & sea aspect

Ripe for renovation, it's forever or weekender move in ready right now and really it's only cosmetic changes you'd consider.

A winner!
