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.

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
SAZoned General Neighbourhood · GN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 691 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. Zoning and lot facts are a starting point, not proof this lot outperforms the suburb. 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.” Street frontage and true lot geometry are not confirmed without open cadastre. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
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.
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.
3 of 10 questions answered so far
Development optionality of this lot
KnownlowZoned General Neighbourhood · GN (Planning and Design Code). Official parcel area about 691 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.
Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
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?
KnownmediumOfficial parcel about 691 m² — land size can look like optionality. No 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
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownNo DA adapter returned applications for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask
UnknownStatutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.
Net yield / holding costs
UnknownNet yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Listing material
Listed by Raine & Horne Kurralta ParkA Brief History:
It is extremely rare to find a home which has had only two owners in it's nearly 100 year history but this is one of them! Originally built in 1929, the first owner was Catherine McAskill who was a school teacher at the local Cowandilla Primary school and had a wonderful 54 years residing here. The current owner purchased the home when only 22 back in 1983, and she too had a wonderful 28 years living in the home prior to moving interstate, and now 10 years after, is finally available once again. In her time as owner, the home has been renovated with a new kitchen and bathroom, and the outdoor entertaining area, spa pool, studio/teenagers retreat, games room, and triple carport have all been added. The home still offers many of the original character features and all it's charm, with modern conveniences to reflect today's entertaining lifestyle. Now in 2021, after 38 years of ownership, it is time for a new owner to love living in this magnificent home and leave their legacy as only the third owner. Will that be you?
This ultra appealing home has magnificent street presence with it's character bungalow façade preceded by the lovely rose garden and features:
• Central entrance hallway with a gold leafed decorative ornate ceiling, original glass light fitting, picture rails, and plush woollen carpets
• The master bedroom is a great size and has a large 4 door timber built in robe plus, picture rails and matching ceiling accents, split system air conditioning plus ceiling fan
• The second bedroom is also spacious in size and has polished timber floorboards, ornate cornices, plus ceiling fan
• The lounge room has a gas log fireplace with slate surround, split system air conditioner, and is a wonderful place to sit and relax
• The adjacent dining room features the wood combustion heater for warm cosy winter meals
• The updated kitchen has a relatively new 900mm stainless steel 5 burner gas stove with a curved stainless steel double fan rangehood above, ample bench and cupboard space including a microwave nook, dishwasher, double sink with Puratap, and pantry cupboard
• The renovated bathroom is fully tiled, has a large vanity and oversized shower, plus a Velux skylight with rain sensing automated closing ability
• You'll love entertaining your family and friends under the expansive pergola area with triple ceiling fans. Other highlights are the spa pool with timber decking around it and you can sit and watch your favourite TV shows with the wall mounted TV. The built in bbq is also plumbed to natural gas
• The Studio/Teenagers Retreat is spacious in size, has timber look flooring, a bathroom, plus it's own power board and is a great addition to the home for the teenager or extended family
• The manicured rear garden has a grassed area for the children to play in and is surrounded by an established garden bed on either side
• The large shed at the rear has been fully lined and converted into an excellent games room, or could be utilised as a workshop for the home handyman. It has a workbench with sink, plus it's own powerboard, and there is sectioned area for storage
• There is a woodshed to store your wood for the combustion heater plus a garden shed for your garden items
• There is space for car parking aplenty with the carport leading to the automated roller door, behind of which is parking for another two vehicles
• Generous allotment of almost 700m2
• When purchasing real estate it's all about location and you don't get much better than this!! Located across the road (almost) from the Hamra Centre Library, a short walk to the Hilton Shopping Plaza, and within close proximity to Cowandilla Primary and Tennison Woods Catholic School. Furthermore, it is only a few minutes to the City one way and about 15mins to the beach the other way!
Overall this is a truly rare opportunity not to be missed. The home is ready to move in to and enjoy straight away where you can enjoy all the features and benefits it has to offer, and who knows - you may be here for the next 50 years yourself!!
A Rare Offering - Don't Miss Out!!
