No verification items generated for this record.
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.

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.
The official layer was queried and no heritage listed area was detected on this parcel (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 30 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
NSWZoned Low Density Residential · R2 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 571 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. If the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check, this lot can outperform a same-suburb house that is hold-as-is only. That is not a forecast. 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.” Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $711/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.
Verdict
Districts view
This looks more compelling as a land / capital-growth play than a pure yield play — if the dual occupancy pathway survives a planner’s check.
Detail
Zoned Low Density Residential · R2 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 571 m². Dual occupancy is a permitted housing type in this NSW zone under statewide settings, subject to DCP and site constraints. That is not confirmation this lot qualifies. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate.
Achieved rent for this address has not been inferred. Gross yield on advertising copy is not the deal.
Nearby DA pipeline is unknown, so neighbourhood change is not in this verdict.
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.
4 of 10 questions answered so far
Development optionality of this lot
KnownmediumZoned Low Density Residential · R2 (Lake Macquarie Local Environmental Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 571 m².

Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
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?
KnownmediumNo 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

Statutory land value versus ask

Listing material
Listed by SOLD Real EstateBeautifully close to the golden sand and frothy surf that runs from Blacksmiths Surf Club to Redhead SLSC.
Promising pristine sand and surf, you will love everything about Blacksmiths Beach.
From surfing and fishing, to walking the dogs and playing with the kids and grandkids, spending days on end swimming, building sandcastles and collecting shells and beach treasures.
Just imagine owning this piece of paradise, where the rhythmic sound of the ocean waves is your everyday companion.
Located just an hour from Hornsby and a mere 30 minutes to Newcastle, this property is more than just a home, it's a getaway retreat.
With Belmont Golf Course just up the road, Blacksmiths boat ramp and Lake access at Pelican, life on the water doesn't get better than this.
The Blacksmiths shopping strip offers everything you need day to day and is just minutes away, with great cafe coffee, food options and shops, with a great family hotel strolling distance from home.
Promising you a wonderful weekender lifestyle, you can live here like you're on holidays 365 days of the year, or you can get up here every other weekend.

Now we have you set on the location and lifestyle on offer, let's talk about the home…
It's rare to find something on a grand scale that coastal luxe feel, its got room for all the family or your weekends away.
There is 'wow factor' from the moment you step through the door with delicious polished concrete floors that flow from the front living space through the kitchen out to the outdoor entertaining area.
The kitchen is a hero piece starring sleek cabinetry and colossal island bench with so much space its not funny, perfect for prepping for an entire party and still enough room for your guests or helpers to sit by, chat and share a wine.
Boasting a lovely wide cooker and oven, there's no excuse not to keep the troops fed, even if it's just a never-ending supply of party pies or sausage sandwiches, you should be able to smash out great Chrissy lunches for a crowd with plenty of prep, serving, cooktop and oven space.
If afternoon BBQs with friends is more your vibe, fire up the built in barbeque and set yourself up for an afternoon outdoors with massive undercover area looking out to the completely flat, fully fenced and private yard.
Keep sandy feet away from the bedrooms and guests from interfering with your privacy with complete bathroom, shower included, on the lower level, easily accessible from outdoors.
Escape from the rest of the household with deluxe master suite located upstairs complete with your own private balcony to enjoy that cuppa before the rest of the world wakes up.
Upstairs living lets you separate and watch different TVs when you can't decide on what to watch, or the footy is on and the non footy fans are up for a movie.
If days out on the jet skis, surfboards or paddle boards are your thing, the side access provides the perfect storage space hidden from the street front and easily accessible to grab and run.
With lots to be impressed by, there is not lots of maintenance to do, instead of hard work, blood sweat and tears to look after killer big lawns, there's enough for the puppies and the grandkids, and a plunge or lap pool as well!
