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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 2,005 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Glen Forrest (last 5 years) with land size: median $381/m² of land (n=105). 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

WA

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 2,005 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.

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $790/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 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.

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

    WA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 2,005 m² — that is not official geometry.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

  • 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 Hidden Secret!

Most of the locals know this is one of the best streets in Glen Forrest - it's a beautiful country lane and this delightful family home is situated near the end.

The sloping block is approximately 2005sqm and offers a lovely outlook while maintaining privacy from the neighbouring properties with natural vegetation.

The original home was built in 1970 and whilst it retains some features from that period, the home has been extended and refurbished extensively. The features include:

Read the full description

* Charming French Doors from the formal lounge to the outside

* Delightful country style kitchen with modern appliances

* Four generous sized bedrooms - 2 with walk in robes

* The 4th bedroom would make an ideal home office or massage studio with direct access to the paved pathway

* A small study or large storeroom is situated off the main living area - a serious wine enthusiast could turn this into an excellent cellar

* The large, open plan family room allows for generous gatherings to mingle in the same area with inside, covered entertaining area and a level paved area providing 3 options. There is also a split system air conditioning unit in the family room

* Meandering paths around the home gives easy access to most of the block and native gardens. There is also an area designated as a veggie garden - this has established infrastructure and will enjoy plenty of sunshine to make those veggies grow!

* The 6mx9m colour bond workshop has additional undercover areas for extra storage and/or workspace

* A free standing double carport with easy access from the road is situated at the front of the property

* There is extra parking available at the front of the property

After 17 years, it is time for the current owner to move on. His family has now grown up and moved on so the opportunity is yours to secure this piece of paradise in the Hills.

Please note: we have been instructed to arrange viewings by appointment only and no open homes will be scheduled. A viewing can be arranged by calling David Mattock on 0414 477674
