This is on the market — is it worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale — no asking price recorded(Listing record · 20 May 2026)
  • FactLand 566 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

What could make it worth less?

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

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No hazard layer has been retrieved — confirm flood, bushfire and heritage exposure from council mapping before an offer.

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?

Planning 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” 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 $566/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.

1 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

  • 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?

    Unknown

    The constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). 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

    Development applications have not been queried 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.

A Symmetrical c1910 Villa Masterpiece of Character, Heritage & Contemporary Refi

Positioned in one of Torrensville's most desirable and tightly held streets, minutes from the city fringe, this exquisitely restored symmetrical villa is a rare fusion of heritage craftsmanship and contemporary luxury. Thoughtfully reimagined with an uncompromising attention to detail, the home delivers timeless street appeal, grand proportions, and a flexible floorplan suited to modern family living on an ideal allotment.

From the moment you arrive, the home makes a striking first impression. A newly installed roof and front veranda with traditional bullnose detailing sets the tone, complemented by restored front stonework, repointed brickwork, and lacework carefully repaired to honour its original character. Custom leadlight windows grace the entrance while brand new sash-style timber windows and frames have been installed to further enhance the home's heritage authenticity while bringing it into modern age with additional specially made double glazed timber frames and windows.

Inside, newly reinstated soaring ceilings at an impressive 3.6m* create an immediate sense of grandeur, accentuated by oversized cornices, detailed ceiling roses including a statement custom piece, and a beautifully restored central hallway with custom skirtings and a Victorian arch. Original flooring has been salvaged and Baltic pine timber floors installed in the front rooms and hallway, while polished concrete defines the contemporary rear extension, creating a seamless blend of old and new.

A rare and invaluable cellar sits beneath the home, offering exceptional additional storage or potential wine cellar use. An increasingly scarce feature that adds both practicality and long-term appeal.

The flexible floorplan offers either three or four bedrooms depending on configuration, allowing for a second living area or additional bedroom if desired. Each space is enriched with character detailing, natural light, and quality finishes.

At the heart of the home, the newly designed kitchen showcases premium AEG and Electrolux appliances, generous storage, and a refined aesthetic that balances function with style. The fully renovated bathroom complements the home's modern upgrades while maintaining a timeless feel.

Comfort and security have been carefully considered, with ducted air conditioning, a comprehensive alarm system, upgraded electrical infrastructure with protective iron cladding, double insulation, and a solar system comprising 18 panels with an electric solar box ensuring energy efficiency and peace of mind.

The home's rear opens into a light-filled living and dining space that flows seamlessly to the landscaped backyard, creating an ideal setting for relaxed entertaining and everyday family living. Thoughtful landscaping to both front and rear gardens completes the property, enhancing both privacy and presentation.

An attic space provides valuable storage and future flexibility, further enhancing the home's functionality.

Perfectly positioned within the highly sought-after Adelaide High School and Adelaide Botanic High School zones, this address also offers excellent access to Torrensville and Cowandilla Primary Schools. Everyday convenience is unmatched, with The Brickworks Marketplace just moments away, along with nearby caf�s such as Elementary and Latte Studio, and a vibrant selection of multicultural dining along Henley Beach Road including Crossover Vietnamese, British Raj, and Pawana Afghan Kitchen.
