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
TASPlanning 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 for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $548/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. Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property. 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.

Listing material
Listed by Elders Real Estate HobartSet on a generous 706 sqm block, this architecturally designed double-brick home offers timeless appeal with high ceilings, expansive windows, and all-day sun.
Perfectly positioned in a quiet location, you'll enjoy easy access to shops, doctors, restaurants and the beach, with public transport right at your door. Some of Hobart's best schools and the university are close by.
Originally built in 1956, the home underwent a major renovation in 1998, including rewiring, replumbing (majority), and the installation of a Colorbond roof with added insulation. Upstairs ceilings were relined for improved insulation while retaining original character, and beautiful Tasmanian oak floors lie hidden beneath the current coverings. Extensive built-in storage ensures practicality throughout.
The lounge and dining area offer stunning views across the Derwent River to the Eastern Shore. Comfort is assured with a reverse cycle air conditioner and an operational open fireplace, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Crafted from Blackwood timber, the kitchen features stunning views along with quality appliances, including an AEG double oven and glass-top hotplates.
The home offers three bedrooms: two spacious doubles upstairs and a versatile downstairs area with its own entry, bathroom, and potential kitchenette, ideal for guests or a home office. Two bathrooms serve the property, with three toilets in total. The upstairs bathroom includes a Huon Pine vanity, handcrafted by a master cabinetmaker.
A single garage with a tilt-a-door provides secure parking, complemented by additional driveway space. A workshop, garden shed, and large hot water cylinder add convenience for storage and hobbies.
Security lighting, window and door locks offer peace of mind, while the established garden includes a watering system for easy maintenance.
This classic property offers space, comfort, and convenience in one of Hobart's most sought-after areas. Enjoy stunning river views, natural light, and a home that's ready to move in, or alternatively update and make your own.
