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 maps a heritage listed area on this parcel, intersecting about 99.7% of it (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 30 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 Low Density Residential · R2 (Newcastle Local Environmental Plan 2012). Official parcel area about 416 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 $610/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 Harcourts NewcastleClassic bones, a thoughtful update, and a location that keeps you close to everything, this Federation brick two bedroom home in The Hill has been tightly held for a reason. It's the kind of place that feels grounded the moment you step inside, where original character and modern ease sit comfortably side by side.
The layout is simple, functional, and easy to live in. Lounge and dining sit on opposite sides of the hallway, filled with beautiful northeasterly light that shifts gently throughout the day. Timber floors run underfoot, ornate cornices frame the lounge, and French doors open through to the sunroom offering an extra spot that works just as well for a quiet morning coffee, a home office, or a reading retreat tucked away from the rest of the home. The kitchen has been updated with a clean, contemporary feel, while the bathroom follows suit. There's also the practical addition of a second shower and w/c in the laundry, giving you flexibility for guests or busy mornings. Out back, the garden takes in views across The Hill, with the Town Hall clock tower, The Roundhouse and the University adding a familiar Newcastle backdrop. A fenced yard keeps things private and usable, while a single garage sits neatly off the side.
And then there's the lifestyle. Brunch on Darby Street, markets at Civic Park, afternoons at the Art Gallery, a surf at Bar Beach or a walk along the harbour foreshore, everything is within easy reach, making it just as much about where you live as how you live.
