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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 24,758 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Strathfieldsaye (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,003/m² of land (n=94). 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

VIC

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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $634/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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

    Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

  • 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.

Private Bushland Retreat with Dual Residences

The showcase of the property is the architect-designed mud brick home by renowned designer Robert Marshall, a name synonymous with craftsmanship in this style of build. Featuring striking architectural lines, the home blends seamlessly with its bushland setting while offering warmth, character, and functionality.

The master bedroom includes a walk-in robe, while additional bedrooms provide family accommodation. A well-zoned kitchen flows to open-plan living and dining areas, with natural light and bush views enhancing the interiors. The front verandah is a standout design feature, matching the width of the rear and extending from the master bedroom to a wing wall off the kitchen, with another wing wall positioned between the family bathroom and family room. In contrast, the eastern roadside and rear bedroom wings are intentionally verandah-free, allowing sun and light into the home. Adding further practicality, this residence also includes its own shed, ensuring storage and workshop needs are met.

Read the full description

The second dwelling provides additional living or rental potential and is equally well-presented. Featuring timber-lined ceilings, exposed beams, and a feature brick fireplace in the lounge, it's a warm and welcoming home in its own right. The kitchen connects to the dining and living areas, with a master bedroom featuring built-in robes and ensuite, plus two further bedrooms. A central bathroom, large laundry, and wrap-around verandahs complement the layout. Recent updates include a new hot water service, evaporative cooler, and tank pump, providing peace of mind for the new owner.

Outdoors & Property Features

The property is fully fenced and thoughtfully set up to support a relaxed rural lifestyle. Infrastructure includes a large workshop/shed, solar system, and ample water tanks, with wide driveways and generous parking. NBN is connected to both dwellings, ensuring modern convenience alongside the bushland surrounds.

Location

Despite its serene, secluded feel, the property is only moments from Strathfieldsaye township for shopping, schools, and sporting facilities, and less than 15 minutes from Bendigo CBD.

This is a rare opportunity to secure a renowned Robert Marshall mud brick home with a second residence, delivering space, versatility, and timeless bushland living.
