No verification items generated for this record.
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.

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.
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.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
NSWZoned Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 503 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. If the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check, this lot can outperform a same-suburb house that is hold-as-is only. That is not a forecast. 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.” 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
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. 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
This looks more compelling as a land / capital-growth play than a pure yield play — if the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check.
Detail
Zoned Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 503 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.
Achieved rent for this address has not been inferred. Gross yield on advertising copy is not the deal.
Nearby DA pipeline is unknown, so neighbourhood change is not in this verdict.
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.
3 of 10 questions answered so far
Development optionality of this lot
KnownmediumZoned Medium Density Residential · R3 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 503 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies.

Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
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

Statutory land value versus ask

Net yield / holding costs

Listing material
Listed by SOLD Real EstateA wonderfully quiet pocket of Swansea where long-established homes are being renewed with pride, character is being restored rather than replaced, this home offers genuine old-world charm, thoughtful contemporary improvements and far more space, privacy and practicality than the façade ever lets on.
Set behind a modern fence line, the street presence is timeless and immaculate.
The sun-filled screened porch, a gorgeous bonus space that functions like a second living zone and you're immediately swept into a home that blends warmth and character with fresh, updated style.
The layout is exceptional. Four genuine bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious internal laundry, a beautifully finished kitchen, and open plan living give families flexibility and breathing room.
The front lounge is perfect for quiet living, while the huge rear living becomes the everyday heart of the home, opening through sliding doors to one of the standout features, the covered deck and oversized covered patio that sit privately to the rear.
This entire outdoor zone is where the home shifts from “nice” to “special.” The deck feels like an outdoor living room, protected year-round, with a seamless connection to the low-maintenance backyard.
The patio extends the entertaining footprint even further, making it an effortless place to host, relax, share meals and let kids or grandkids play safely within sight.
The kitchen sits perfectly central, updated, extensive in storage, beautifully finished and connected to both living zones.
The bedroom wing is sensibly grouped together, with the main bathroom nearby, while the master also enjoys its own bathroom close by for practical daily living.
And then there's the garaging, genuinely impressive, with huge side access, carport that follows the length of the home and garage with workshop and additional storage.
Whether you're bringing hobbies, jet skis, tools, a workshop or simply need real storage, it's all here and positioned away from the main outdoor areas for peace and privacy.
This is one of those homes that simply works. Easy to live in now, beautifully maintained, lovingly upgraded, and still offering scope to personalise over time.
Then comes everything the location brings…
Buyers who love Swansea know exactly why this area is so tightly held, swimming, boating, schools, shops, cafés and day-to-day essentials are all an effortless, flat stroll from home. It's perfect for downsizers who want to walk everywhere, young families with prams, retirees, or anyone who wants to ditch the car as often as possible.
Magnificent surf beaches are minutes away, and the flat walk or ride to Blacksmiths Beach becomes a beautiful daily ritual for locals who love watching the sunrise over the ocean. In the other direction, spectacular sunsets glow across Lake Macquarie just around the corner on Lakeside Drive and Boyd Street's foreshore parkland.
Swansea North's magic loop walk is a lifestyle in itself, a scenic wander past two amazing boat ramps, along stunning Swansea Channel, across the new boardwalk to Coon Island and the turquoise shallows of Pirrita Beach. This is where little ones, older ones, swimmers, paddlers and puppies all happily share the water.
Add bush walks, lake dips, surf breaks, cycleways, upgraded clubs, family-friendly pubs and great cafés, and you have a true holiday-feel lifestyle 24/7.
