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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $583,000 (7 Dec 2020).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 1,646 m² against a 180 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Bridgewater (last 5 years) with land size: median $911/m² of land (n=75). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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 $706/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 Real Estate Stirling

Make every day count in a 'tree house' with a bright future and beautiful perspective...

Designed to give the best moments a tree-top view and veiled in more potential than meets the eye, this solidly built 3-bedroom haven stands for everything the Hills home should be and more on a thriving parcel with magical childhoods in mind.

What was strongly built in 1986 has never looked so good and goes above and beyond to bring the great outdoors through every window.

Hardy eye-pleasing bamboo floors, sleek wet areas - including a bathroom with under-floor heating and an oversized rain shower head - and a contemporary kitchen headline the main upper floor.

Read the full description

The kitchen's servery/breakfast bar ensures that feeling of openness is never lost amongst two living zones on either side of it: a lounge/dining room that ends with a timber-decked terrace, and a family room that steps out to the alfresco patio of the rear yard.

Mirroring the upper floor in its dimensions, the 150sqm (approx) undercroft has the scope to double the usable footprint of this already versatile home.

Whether you add more bedrooms, create one big open space or design a self-contained home within-a-home is up to you in this exciting proposition.

Growing up here is just as exciting on a tiered parcel enriched with wildlife and ready for all manner of adventures - whether it's cricket, camping by a fire, hiding, seeking or swinging amongst lawns, nature play areas, nooks, crannies, and a chicken coop. Just magic.

More reasons to love this home:

- Covered parking to undercroft

- Efficient split R/C and cosy combustion fireplace

- Neatly presented gardens - fully irrigated to rear

- Double glazing throughout the entire home

- Dishwasher to super-functional kitchen

- Upgraded separate laundry

- Garden/tool shed

- Modern down lighting

- Built-in robes to bedrooms 1 and 2

- Just a 3-minute drive from Bridgewater village
