No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

Planning facts are copied from official government GIS where available. Where an official property PDF exists (VicPlan, PlanBuild), Districts stores and serves that original document. Neither is a planning certificate, survey, or advice.
Site
Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.
Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.
Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
SAZoned Established Neighbourhood · EN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 285 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.
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. 3 development applications on this parcel. Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Decision Made); Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Decision Made); Code Assessed - Performance Assessed (Decision Made) Latest lodgement recorded 2022-02-10. These are this lot’s applications, not the neighbourhood pipeline. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $602/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
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.
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
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
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.

Listing material
Listed by OCAuction Sat, 1st Aug - 10am (USP)
A short amble from the city and set within the prized Glenunga International High School zone, this single-fronted stone cottage makes beautiful use of its long plot, giving downsizers, professionals and first home buyers a rare mix of space, simplicity and position.
With that elongated parcel comes two equally spacious bedrooms, a light-filled central lounge room and a rear family room addition that bridges the gap between the modern kitchen and a paved rear patio itching for summer dinners when you haven't got a reservation on Unley Road. No car needed.
Add prolific off-street parking, loads of storage, electronic gated entry, ducted ac, polished Baltic pine floors, lofty ceilings and a stone fronted facade and you have a timeless home primed for the modern city-fringe lifestyle. Just lock up and love it.
Open the Door To:
⁃ A deceptively generous footprint that stretches well beyond the cottage itself, giving you a deep rear yard, paved entertaining space, storage and genuine off-street parking
⁃ Two oversized front bedrooms, each with built-in storage, lofty ceilings and polished Baltic pine floors that keep the original section warm, useful and full of character
⁃ A central lounge room that gives the floor plan its old-world heart, complete with timber floors, high skirtings, fireplace detail and a natural separation from the rear living zone
⁃ A second living zone at the back, opening the home up where it matters most with room to dine, cook, gather and spill outside
⁃ A crisp white kitchen with stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, dishwasher, wide windows and plenty of bench space for everyday meals or pre-dinner drinks
⁃ A rear bathroom and laundry zone that keep the practical parts of the home tucked away, supported by built-in storage and easy garden access
⁃ A paved rear patio with a pergola overhead, made for low-effort entertaining rather than high-maintenance weekends
⁃ A deep driveway behind electronic gates, giving this character cottage the parking freedom many city-fringe homes simply don't have
⁃ A rear shed and extra storage options, adding real function to a home that already makes smart use of its long allotment
⁃ Ducted air conditioning, downlights and updated rear spaces, bringing a more modern level of comfort to its 1890s bones
And Parkside does the rest in a way few city-fringe suburbs can; walk north for the parklands, Central Market and CBD, drift west for Unley Road's cafes, restaurants and King William's boutiques or head east to Burnside Village and the hills beyond. From here, dinner, work, school, coffee, shopping and weekend green space all sit in the same easy radius, turning a classic cottage into a genuinely useful base for a life lived more on foot than behind the wheel.

Nearby development pipeline
Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Honest achievable rent
KnownlowThis 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
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?
KnownmediumNo 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
UnknownFlood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”
Catalyst exposure
