What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $5,300,000 (4 Aug 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in New Farm (last 5 years) with land size: median $7,160/m² of land (n=23). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

QLD

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 $668/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.

Listing material

Listed by Sixty Four Property

Nothing is its equal

Van Gogh once said, “Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.” He emphasised the importance of patience and dedication when making art – each small effort contributes to the creation of something extraordinary. When walking through Havana on James, you’ll appreciate the attention to detail, the pursuit of perfection and the countless hours the owner has invested to bring a modern masterpiece to life. Havana is more than a home – it’s an extraordinary piece of art yearning to be lived in.

Positioned in the heart of Brisbane’s most liveable suburb, just seven years out from the 2032 Olympics, this four-bedroom, five-bathroom residence sits moments from James Street precinct, The Calile Hotel, New Farm Park, The Powerhouse, Howard Smith Wharves, and the Jan Powers Farmers Markets – all accessible along the picturesque Brisbane River walkway. The lifestyle on offer here is second to none.

Step inside and the ground level opens up into an entertainer’s dream, finished in stained timber flooring and framed by an Ephraim loose stone wall that blurs the line between indoor elegance and outdoor beauty. The chef's kitchen – anchored by a natural marble island and granite benchtops – is kitted out with Miele appliances including an integrated fridge/freezer, gas stove, coffee machine, microwave, oven, and dishwasher. There’s also a butler’s pantry with its own dishwasher and space for a second fridge with water hookup.

Read the full description

The open-plan design seamlessly flows into the oversized lounge, where soaring ceilings are illuminated by chandeliers sourced from New York. A built-in electric fireplace adds warmth and character, all orchestrated by the Savant smart home system – controlling lighting, audio, curtains, locks, security, and even the garage door with a touch.

Adjacent to the living space, a twelve-seater formal dining table sets the stage for intimate dinners or grand soirées, complete with surround sound and mood lighting. And when you're feeling indulgent, there's an infrared sauna tucked away downstairs for private wellness moments.

Step outside and you'll find a resort-style outdoor haven. A magnesium + heated pool takes centre stage, surrounded by stained timber decking and an outdoor kitchen that's second to none – including a teppanyaki plate, commercial-grade rangehood, dishwasher, sink, gas point for BBQ, ceiling fans, electric heaters and an ice machine for good measure. The loose stone wall theme continues outdoors, perfectly complemented by security screens, window panelling and lush, low-maintenance landscaping.

Upstairs, each bedroom is a retreat in itself – the main three are ensuited with designer feature tiles by Groove Tiling, and custom porcelain benchtops. The master suite is a true sanctuary, boasting a private ensuite with a bath, dual shower, dual vanity, and a skylight that bathes the space in natural light. Feature lighting in the main three bedrooms, ducted A/C, ceiling fans, TV points and electric blinds complete the package. An attic with fold-out ladder access offers practical storage too.

"I believe that art is the only form of activity in which man shows himself to be a true individual...and is capable of going beyond the animal state. Art is an outlet towards regions which are not ruled by time and space. To live is to believe. Marcel Duchamp, 1956. This quote by Marcel rings true for me and Havana. The owner has stepped outside what perhaps is the norm and delivered a product which is an extension of his true self. He's not wanting to be the same or do the same, he's stayed true to his art and boy does it show in spades.

Further features include:

• Integrated Savant smart home system

• Ceiling speakers in every room, including bathrooms

• Ducted air con throughout + split system in two rooms

• Electric sheer curtains and blinds

• Auto locks, smart entry + garage door access

• Built-in cellar

• Display/bookcase cabinet included (not fixed)

• Feature powder room & full laundry with washer + dryer

• Security system with cameras

We welcome you to inspect privately, at your leisure and your speed. It is a home that asks you to slowly make your way and enjoy its space.
