No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

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 was queried and no heritage listed area was detected on this parcel (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 31 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 Primary Production · RU1 (Warrumbungle Local Environmental Plan 2013). Official parcel area about 96,177 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. 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.” 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 $367/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
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
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.

Nearby development pipeline

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?
KnownmediumOfficial parcel about 96,177 m² — land size can look like optionality. No 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

Statutory land value versus ask

Listing material
Listed by Johnston Donoghue PropertyIan McArthur of Johnston Donoghue is proud to present for sale the aggregation known as "Old Gowang" and "Avon Hills". A highly productive mixed farming enterprise in the renowned Coonabarabran district. Comprising a total land area of 1,288.92 hectares (3,184.93 acres) the property offers an attractive balance of cultivation and grazing, with approximately 33% arable land suited to cropping and pasture improvement. The property benefits from an average annual rainfall of 750 mm, excellent water security, and a comprehensive suite of improvements. These include a principal homestead, a renovated cottage serving as the primary residence, a secondary homestead, extensive shedding (both new and original), and well-designed sheep and cattle handling facilities.
"Old Gowang" is located 33Km west of Coonabarabran, 140Km northeast of Dubbo and 210Km west of Tamworth, once the originally part of the historic D.I Watt holdings, which extended through to Binnaway. Notably, it was the final parcel sold from the Watt Estate, marking an important chapter in the district's pastoral history. Adding further significance, the property is the resting place of the legendary racehorse Tulloch, owned by E.A. Haley in the 1960's, adding a unique element of Australia's sporting heritage.
From various vantage points, the property enjoys sweeping panoramic views of the Warrumbungle Ranges.
Held by the Lambert family since 1978, this is a proven and versatile enterprise with strong underlying productivity and scope for further development.
"Old Gowang" and "Avon Hills" represent a rare opportunity to acquire a well-balanced, productive mixed farming enterprise in a tightly held, highly regarded region.
With strong water security, quality infrastructure, and scope for further productivity gains, the property is ideally suited to both existing operators and investors seeking scale, reliability, and long-term potential.
