Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
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
Planning data is being calculated
Data unavailable
Source
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
NSWPlanning 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.
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
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $643/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. 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.
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
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 First National Real Estate Murwillumbah183 Murwillumbah Street holds a combination genuinely hard to find in the Tweed Valley: a quiet, elevated cul-de-sac position with rural views over cane fields toward the Caldera Ranges, and a five-minute walk into central Murwillumbah's shops, schools, parks and markets. It suits a young family with room to grow, or a household stepping back from a larger rural holding without giving up the space, the view, or the distance from the street.
Period character, genuinely intact
The home is a well-kept example of 1950s Waterfall-style architecture, distinguished by its curved walls — a soft departure from the square-edged norm of the era. Varied decorative cornices trace the ceiling line through the principal rooms, retro cabinetry has been retained rather than replaced, and the original hardwood floors run underfoot throughout, polished back to their natural grain. It's a level of intact period detail that's increasingly rare to find.
Renovated without losing what makes it distinctive
Without compromising the home's characterful charm, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated. The façade's original stucco has been retained, while the rear has been reclad in Hardiplank, replacing the home's original asbestos cladding, which was removed by a licensed demolition contractor.
Built for outdoor living, oriented for it too
A covered deck finished in Modwood — chosen so it will never need revarnishing — is built to entertain at scale, comfortably holding a gathering of 60, looking north over the cane fields toward Calder Mountain. The same north aspect fills the interior with natural light and works as a passive climate system, keeping the home warmer through winter and easier to cool in summer.
A garden that's already productive
The established garden has been developed as a low-input, productive ecosystem — citrus (Tahitian and Kaffir limes, Emperor and Honey Murcott mandarins, blood and Valencia oranges), tropical and exotic fruiting trees (jaboticaba, soursop, chocolate sapote, Brazilian cherry, tamarillo, guava), native shrubs for birdlife, pollinator plantings, herbs, vegetables and seasonal bulbs in rotation.
A rare hold
Elevated, flood-free land boasting commanding rural scenery within walking distance of central Murwillumbah is scarce on its own. A renovated, character-intact Waterfall-style home on that land, with a separate studio and an established orchard, is rarer still — and holdings with this level of potential don't come back to market often.
