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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 1,082 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Magill (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,608/m² of land (n=99). 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

SA

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 $639/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.

A bluestone beauty with history in its bones and Magill at its feet

From a breathtaking bluestone frontage that soaks up the northern sun, to a lifestyle-laden layout, 20 Ellis is every bit the Magill dream - timeless, tailored, and ready to grow with you.

A grand bluestone symmetrical villa that stretches over an enviable 1082sqm allotment, C1880 pedigree still shines brightly, with soaring ceilings, polished timber floors, and grand fireplaces layered over an intuitive floorplan that knows exactly how families want to live today.

A wide, graceful hallway that sets the tone from the moment you step inside. 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms plus a generous study that could easily make a 5th bedroom, all serviced by two federation-style bathrooms - main complete with a clawfoot tub primed for self-care soaks.

Extending the footprint south and seamlessly introducing the 21st century, a gourmet kitchen anchors the day-to-day with timber benchtops, integrated appliances, and a breakfast bar set for every moment from homework to grazing boards.

An expansive family room is built for every season, whether it's winter nights around the slow combustion wood fire, or summer days that spill through the French doors. Dual alfresco entertaining areas watch over a sparkling fully tiled swimming pool, delivering room to play and space to entertain, all framed by beautifully established gardens that keep the world at bay. Kids, pets, green thumbs - all catered for.

Add in a huge 4m x 4m wine cellar, with racking for circa 700 bottles of your favourite collection, solar panels, endless storage, a shed ready for whatever project comes next, and you've got a lifestyle framework built for anything.

The best part? It's all wrapped in Magill's enduring magic, from Penfold Park and Morialta trails for your Sunday strolls, Firle Plaza and Romeo's for the grocery run, The Tower Hotel for knock-offs, and Hibernia for your caffeine hit.
