No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
QLDZoned Character residential (Character) · CR (Brisbane City Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 441 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. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $667/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. 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.
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
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.

Development optionality of this lot
KnownmediumZoned Character residential (Character) · CR (Brisbane City Plan 2014). Official parcel area about 441 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.
Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
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?
KnownmediumNo 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
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownNo DA adapter returned applications for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask
UnknownStatutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.
Net yield / holding costs
UnknownNet yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Listing material
Listed by Place New FarmPositioned on an expansive 863sqm corner block in the heart of Sherwood, this 1926 Queenslander has been cherished by the same family for 24 years. Framed by manicured hedges and a white picket fence, its dual street frontage, elevated flood-free setting, and timeless façade create a home that is as practical as it is beautiful. Rich with stories, it has raised children from their earliest years through to university while hosting countless family gatherings and celebrations with friends.
From the gated entry, one of two north-east facing decks welcomes summer breezes into interiors that reveal soaring 11-foot ceilings, polished timber floors, and original leadlight windows. Two upstairs living rooms enhance family flexibility, complemented by skylights in the hallway and kitchen, striking art deco light fittings, and Flemish glass. A pot-belly stove anchors the main living room, while French doors extend to an oversized deck overlooking the swimming pool and gardens.
The kitchen forms the true heart of the home, blending heritage charm with everyday practicality. Wrap-around stone benchtops and a breakfast bar are paired with pendant lighting and ample cabinetry. A large Belling stove with twin ovens, walk-in pantry, and double sinks cater to family living, while direct access to the rear entertaining deck makes gatherings effortless.
Across both levels, the home offers four well-sized bedrooms. The main is complete with air conditioning, walk-in wardrobe, and a modern ensuite featuring double vanities and clawfoot bath. A second bedroom on this level enjoys a window seat with leafy outlooks, while downstairs, one has direct pool access. The sleep-out adds flexibility as a home office, additional bedroom, nursery, or playroom.
The lower level provides independence for teenagers or guests with a modern bathroom,
two additional bedrooms, and a spacious living room that opens directly to the garden and swimming pool. A glass internal stairwell draws natural light inside, while an oversized laundry, abundant storage, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a large workshop with double tubs highlight the home's overall practical inclusions.
Outdoors impress with a firepit framed by tropical gardens, a sparkling 11m saltwater pool, breezy covered patios, and a level lawn offering privacy for children and pets, all bordered by hedges and secure fencing. Automatic irrigation, tropical landscaping, thoughtful outdoor lighting, and a rainwater tank provide ease of upkeep. Adding to its legacy, the home and garden were once home to a prize-winning Poinciana crowned the 'Queen of the Flowering Trees' in 1951 and later featured in the 1971 Women's Weekly Gardening Book.
Completing the lifestyle, the location is second to none. Within a block of Sherwood train station, Sherwood Arboretum, and walking distance from Sherwood State School, the home provides both convenience and independence for families. A new Woolworths and shops are within walking distance, while long-standing neighbours foster a genuine sense of community. Safe, welcoming, and connected, this is Sherwood living at its finest.
Homes of this scale, history, and charm seldom come to market. Contact us today to experience the lifestyle awaiting at 24 Marlborough Street, Sherwood.
