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
SAPlanning 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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $590/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. No recorded off-street parking — often a discount versus the suburb median for the same beds.
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.
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
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.

Honest achievable rent

Rental supply pressure
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?

This lot's DA history

Statutory land value versus ask

Listing material
Listed by Martin Real EstateThis delightful 1880s maisonette located in the charming village atmosphere of old Kensington, offers the best of both eras with up-to-date amenities & Victorian-era character features.
Painstakingly restored by a qualified engineer, the attention to detail is astounding, and no expense has been spared. The external walls have been injected with silicon by Adelaide's leading salt damp experts "Tech Dry" and also offer thermal properties which keep the cottage considerably cooler in summer, reducing the need for air-conditioning.
However, there are split system reverse cycle air conditioners both upstairs & downstairs to provide the desired conditions for any season. It has also been hardwired for networking.
The galvanized roof and gutters are new, as are the Jarrah floorboards on the ground floor and the Tasmanian oak floorboards on the first floor.
The handmade "Broom Stick" front fence follows local heritage, as does the original front section, restored with heritage cornices for the new 3.4m ceilings.
Exposed Oregon rafters add character to the sloping ceiling of the first -floor master bedroom and ensuite, accessed by a bespoke jarrah & steel staircase.
The kitchen cabinetry is Tasmanian oak with beech benchtops, contrasted with stainless steel & glass for the splash back. Top class Blum soft closing drawers, and opaque glass infills for the overhead cupboards add style and practicality to the spacious kitchen.
The matching mobile kitchen island bench offers extra preparation space as well as a drop-side table for entertaining.
Quality appliances include a stainless steel Kleenmaid electric oven & gas cooktop. Also included in the sale is a European under-bench washing machine, stainless steel Fischer & Paykel single-drawer dishwasher, and the stainless steel Electrolux fridge & freezer.
The main bathroom on the ground floor includes a claw foot cast iron heritage bath with a frameless glass shower enclosure.
A generous attic with full insulation offers plenty of scope for storage or access to a private rooftop hideaway. The side lane offers a parking alternative with a right of way.
The rear courtyard is protected with a substantial sail cloth and has Merbau decking as well as stone grey pavers. It provides the opportunity of an inviting outside entertaining area for most of the year.
