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.

Flood

Not retrieved

Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Bushfire

Not retrieved

Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Heritage

Not detected — official

The official layer was queried and no heritage listed area was detected on this parcel (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.

Capital growth

NSW

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: medium

Zoned Primary Production · RU1 (Yass Valley Local Environmental Plan 2013). Official parcel area about 160,258 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.” Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. 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 $860/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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownmedium

    Zoned Primary Production · RU1 (Yass Valley Local Environmental Plan 2013). Official parcel area about 160,258 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

    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?

    Knownmedium

    Official parcel about 160,258 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

    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.

Butt Wait... There's More

As you make your way up the driveway towards 18 Butts Road, the day washes away. An easy commute from the city, the drive home is a chance to unwind, to let the day go, and to reset. By the time you're entering the drive, you're ready to enjoy the acreage, the home, and the lifestyle.

This home has had a recent facelift, and the new owners will arrive to find all the hard work has been done. The house sits quietly on the block, and each room has views across the gardens or into the paddocks. As you enter the front door, the home feels fresh, open, and bright, with big windows bringing a lot of light in. The first living area is large, with a statement fireplace and mantel to bring the authentic country charm. There is plenty of room for a big sofa, and space for the whole family to enjoy together. From here, you make your way into the secondary sitting area, with access onto the back verandah and into the kitchen.

The kitchen sits in the middle of the home, easy to access, and has plenty of space to really enjoy your time spent cooking. The Smeg induction cooktop, matching 60cm oven and grill, and the dishwasher are ready for use, and there is a lot of bench-space too. Families will love the open plan nature of the kitchen-dining space, allowing everyone to spend time together.

Read the full description

The four bedrooms are just down the hall, with built in storage, easy access to the main bathroom, separate loo, and the laundry. Each has brand new carpets, and all fit queen beds. The master bedroom is at the end of the hall, with a large built in robe and a modern ensuite.

If this property has struck your interest so far, get ready, the block is a showstopper and a huge feature here. On a total of 16.15ha (40 acres approx.), this property is a horse lovers dream, but would be equally suitable for somebody simply looking to host a few head of stock and maintain a beautiful rural holding.

This area has beautiful fertile soils, and the paddocks are set up thoughtfully, with a central lane and horse friendly fencing. The owners were horsey, and have set up the 5 bay (approx.) shed as a feed shed, hay shed, and 3 x open stables. There is easy access for floats, and there was previously a 70 x 40m arena too.

Below the house, there is a 8 x 4m cinderblock building, which has a range of potential uses. For those with horses who are wanting to restore the original arena, it would make a great viewing room for your coach or family. For others, it holds great potential to be a work from home zone, a guest house, or simply secure storage.

Key features:

• Recently updated 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home

• 16.15ha (40 acres) of beautiful grazing land

• 60cm Smeg oven and separate grill

• 60cm induction cooktop

• Bosch dishwasher

• 2 x Reverse cycle air conditioning units

• 2 x fireplaces

• 4 car carport

• 14m x 7m (approx) shed split into 5 bays

• 8m x 4m cinderblock building

• 1x large dam

• 5 paddocks

18 Butts Road is located 9km (9mins) from Murrumbateman, 26km (23mins) to Yass, and 45km (45mins) to the Canberra City Centre. Murrumbateman is a former gold mining town, with a current population of 3,607 (2021 census). It is a popular tourist destination, with more than 20 boutique wineries and lots of great food, and the community feeling is strong, showcased twice monthly at the Murrumbateman Village Markets. Services are here, and growing, like the new primary school, delicious cafes, bakeries, a local gym, and the local service centre / Friendly Grocer. Many locals commute to the city every day for work, with easy access along the Barton Highway.
