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.
The official layer maps a heritage listed area on this parcel, intersecting about 99.7% of it (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Verify the extent against the title before relying on unaffected land.
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 General Residential · R1 (Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012). Official parcel area about 186 m². Dual occupancy looks constrained by site overlays or terrain. Two-lot subdivision looks unlikely on the loaded constraints. 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.” Heritage constraint may block demolition or dual occupancy even on a large block. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. The listing may look cheap relative to land or the street. What reduces it: Conservation Area - General. Heritage can block demolition and dual occupancy even when land size looks like a site. 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 $764/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. Heritage constraints are a maintenance and alteration cost, not usually a rent premium by themselves.
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
Loaded constraints look like they kill a naive land-size story. Pay house money, or walk, until a planner confirms a pathway.
Detail
The listing may look cheap relative to land or the street. What reduces it: Conservation Area - General. Heritage can block demolition and dual occupancy even when land size looks like a site.
Nearby competing dwellings and net yield are still unknown.
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 Raine & Horne NewtownJust 50 metres from Hollis Park, this superb corner holding of 186.2 sqm offers two pristine residences to use individually or adapt to unite into one family home (subject to Council approval). Built in the 19th Century, this pair of maisonettes - translation: 'little houses' - present as elegant two-bedroom residences with near-identical floorplans and equally rich in period design elements. No. 21 at ground-level claims the private courtgarden, while 21A features a fabulous rooftop entertaining area with panoramic views. Classic maisonettes of this calibre are extremely rare to find in the inner west - the only other example we can think of are the ones right next door. Our two residences are selling as one, offering the option of earning income from both, or living in one and leasing out the other. It is also ripe for remodelling, where the addition of an internal staircase will convert it into a four-bedroom family home (subject to Council approval) which you can upgrade to suit your taste. This is a prime North Newtown address, only 100 metres from the colour and flavour of King Street, while providing easy access to shops, schools, universities, South Eveleigh precinct and the city.
• Both homes have high pressed-metal ceilings & period fireplaces
• Near- identical floorplans present dedicated lounge & dining rooms
• Scope for home & income, or inviting in-laws to live downstairs
• All bedrooms are well scaled, upstairs master with classic balcony
• Rooftop entertaining where you can chill under the sun or shade
• Courtgarden with a paved seating area under the shade of a magnificent Jacaranda
• No through traffic, plus potential for lane access to parking (subject to Council approval)
• North Newtown's most affluent homes are just around the corner
• Easy walk to parks & schools by day, restaurants & music by night
