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
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 953 m² — that is not official geometry. 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 $871/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 The Agency PerthPerched on a sprawling 953sqm block in one of Sorrento's quietest and most sought-after streets, this charming 3 bedroom 1 bathroom brick-and-tile mid-century modern home is as solid as they come and offers a rare opportunity to transform a largely-original haven near the coast into something truly spectacular.
With a massive parcel of land, the possibilities are endless to maximise this magnificent site. Subject to council approval, the block has the potential to be subdivided whilst keeping the existing dwelling at the front with easy street access to the back block from the right side.
The house, with its abundance of jarrah, high raked ceilings and three separate split-level living areas affords endless creative potential. This brilliant “blank canvas” is yours and will welcome your personal modern touches being added to it. The tightly held property is being offered for the first time in 46 years and is in excellent original condition which will delight lovers of mid-century detailing; a testament to the attention to detail in the build and sensitivity, appropriateness and enduring quality of its design. Whether you're looking at a revamp, an exciting renovation or a complete rebuild, this promising property is in the perfect spot to bring your vision to life.
Beyond the welcoming foyer, a front lounge room welcomes you inside with its high raked ceiling, split-system air-conditioning unit, gas bayonet for heating, character brickwork and access out to a leafy side pergola courtyard for sitting and tranquil contemplation. High ceilings and warm brick feature walls also grace the sunken and tiled dining area next door, along with a breakfast-bar servery to the adjacent kitchen and access out to a private side patio (next to the courtyard) and splendid outdoor barbecue nook.
The central kitchen is well-equipped with tiled flooring, a double-door storage pantry, a skylight, timber cabinetry, an electric cooktop, a separate Westinghouse oven/grill, double sinks and a second servery window into the separate family room – connected to the dining space and boasting split-system air-conditioning, a gas bayonet, a pot-belly wood-fireplace heater and stairs leading up to a loft or study area that benefits from both a sunny north-facing front aspect and a verdant green outlook with ocean glimpses to the rear.
Beyond the family room, double doors reveal a pleasant verandah deck that overlooks a sunken paved sitting courtyard for further entertaining – all preceding an enormous backyard that is somewhat of a clean slate and leaves more than enough room for a future swimming pool, extensions and so much more.
Away from the living area, steps lead to the three bedrooms, headlined by a larger master bedroom overlooking the side courtyard (with ample full-height timber built-in-wardrobe and storage space and direct access to the yard) and a practical bathroom with a separate shower and bathtub.
The turquoise waters of Sorrento beach is a short 700-metre stroll away, and lovely Robin Reserve, Sorrento Primary School and Sacred Heart College are all within walking distance, with the likes of other lush local parklands, Hillarys Boat Harbour, the new Hillarys Beach Club and the Marmion Angling and Aquatic Club all nearby.
Shopping options await at Westfield Whitford City and the new-look Karrinyup precinct, with public and private golf courses all minutes from your front doorstep, for living convenience. It's time to make your coastal dream a reality!
