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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 710 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Encounter Bay (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,156/m² of land (n=122). 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

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 $545/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.

Listing material

Listed by Harris South Coast

Spectacular Sea & Island Views

Built by South Coast Constructions Circa 2000, this beautifully presented two-storey home is sure to impress. Located in an elevated position, the property has commanding ocean views taking in Wright Island, Seal Rock, Granite Island and the Victor Harbor township. The ocean views are as magnificent by day as they are at night, when the lights along Franklin Parade and the Victor township come into play.

Enter the home on the ground floor level via the downstairs living room, which comes complete with a very handy kitchenette. There is a purpose-built storeroom with wine racks and built in bench, which is large enough to be used as a home office should there be the need. Two spacious bedrooms are on the ground floor level, as is a large 3-way bathroom and laundry. The drive through two car garage (one behind the other) has an automatic panel lift door to the street and a manual roller door providing access to the back garden - there is internal access from the garage.

Upstairs you will find the fabulous master bedroom which takes full advantage of the sea and island views on offer. The master has access to the two-way bathroom, which comes complete with a huge shower alcove and vanity. There is a powder room to service the other upstairs bedroom, or guests when entertaining. All bedrooms have built in robes and reverse cycle split unit air conditioners. The living space is open plan, with beautiful Tasmanian Oak floors and is dominated entirely by those magnificent ocean and island views. The kitchen is very much the conversational hub of the home - not missing out on any of the action or the views! The living room opens onto the large balcony/deck - a fabulous space for alfresco living and entertaining. Outside stairs provide access to the balcony and upstairs level.

Read the full description

Features are many but to name a few; 3 phase power connected, 3 KW solar system, NBN connected to the home, beautifully landscaped (easy care) gardens front and back, with paved perimeter pathways and retaining walls. To the back of the low maintenance garden, you will find a mandarin, lemon and lime tree (G & T's taken care of) and four producing Kalamata olive trees.

The home is one for all occasions, be it the perfect holiday escape, a wonderful permanent coastal residence, or as an investment property, which will appeal to both the permanent and holiday rental markets. The home has been designed to accommodate family or friends, providing them with their own sense of space.

Overwhelmingly it is the position which is the winner here - the views are simply magnificent, you can watch the boats come and go from the nearby boat ramp, while the northerly aspect takes in the distant rolling hills of the Hindmarsh Valley, whilst letting in the warming winter sun. Walk to Whalers restaurant - put your boat in at the boat ramp, or go for a delightful stroll along Franklin Parade to the Yilki General Store and Beach House Café Restaurant.

People love this street - a fabulous neighbourhood found in a stunning coastal location!
