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

SA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: low

Zoned Neighbourhood (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 419 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.” 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. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $505/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. 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.

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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownlow

    Zoned Neighbourhood (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 419 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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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

    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

    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.

Listing material

Listed by Harris South Coast

Full-scale relaxation. Short walk to river, beach & town.

Whatever your aspirations: workshop space, social freedom or simply the best of Goolwa within your grasp - this three-bedroom home grants them all in empowering courtyard style, a stroll to the water's edge.

From the arrival picket fence to the gabled all-weather patio that transforms the entire backyard into an entertainer's haven, every detail ensures this low care, compact classic creates a comfortable homecoming.

The garaging alone is a win, featuring a 7m x 3.5m workshop for tools or water toys, a separate lock-up garage for the car, plus dual-lane off-street parking for guests and the caravan.

Read the full description

And for the investor, empty-nester or active retiree, it's not something the usual courtyard package delivers.

Inside, warm neutrals keep the vibe timeless throughout, from the north-facing master bedroom up front – with the convenience of a two-way ensuite bathroom - to the combined living and dining zone to the rear, promising an emphasis on indoor-outdoor flow.

Gabled, fully paved, and enveloped by garden beds, the enticing year-round outdoor stage is set, offering plenty of room to move. Behind you, generous kitchen bench-tops are accentuated by feature splash-back tiles, electric appliances and ample high and low cabinetry in a practical remodel that leans into casual dining.

Plush bedroom carpets, durable laminate-style floors to main living area, and ducted reverse cycle air conditioning throughout provide instant comfort - whether you're here for life or just for the holidays - with the added peace of mind of roller shutter security.

And what a spot to escape to.

For a corner-turn to the iconic Hindmarsh Island Bridge, Goolwa slipway and heart of town retail, cruise the boat out to the Coorong, share a quiet ale at the wharf, or here at home, alfresco with friends; there are only rewards to this appealing abode.

Don't let it be the catch that got away…
