Nothing about this record stands out yet — coverage may still be filling in.
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
TASZoned Inner Residential · 114.9 (Hobart Local Provisions Schedule). Official parcel area about 841 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 for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $579/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 for this property. 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.
3 of 10 questions answered so far
Development optionality of this lot
KnownmediumZoned Inner Residential · 114.9 (Hobart Local Provisions Schedule). Official parcel area about 841 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 for this property.
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 841 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
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 Raine & Horne HobartRaine & Horne Hobart are delighted to offer to the market an opportunity to write the next chapter of this wonderful property.
After a fire on the lower ground floor in late 2021, this has become a project for builders, architects, serious renovators, or anyone with vision and determination looking to transform this home. Its potential is enormous.
Constructed c1915 by prominent Tasmanian architect George Stanley Crisp, Clovelly features early Inter-War Mediterranean style elements including rounded brick entrance archways, a front bay window, sandstone bases, and first storey balcony columns that all combine to provide impressive street appeal.
For period connoisseurs the property retains many features reminiscent of its era including a spacious front entranceway, high ceilings and architraves, leadlight and stained-glass windows, large bedrooms, fire surrounds and hearths, picture rails, ceiling roses and a grand staircase between the ground and first floor.
Before the fire, the property was divided into five flats - a unit on the lower ground floor, two units at ground level, and two units on the first floor which were accessed by an external staircase. The external staircase has since been removed with only internal access to the first floor remaining. The property was beginning to undergo renovations prior to the fire with new carpet and paint upstairs in Unit 5, together with a stripped-out bathrooms ready for transformation.
The first-floor balcony and the wrap-around style verandah on the lower ground floor provide covered outdoor spaces perfect for quiet reflection and entertaining, alternatively they can be a vehicle for reinstating units (STCA). The large rear yard is the perfect blank canvas for al fresco entertainment designs or gardening green thumbs with a number of established fruit trees.
Its premium North Hobart address has you moments from the renowned State Cinema Complex and the many restaurants and pubs along (and near) the ever-popular North Hobart Elizabeth Street strip. Although public transport and Hobart's main arterial routes are close by, Swan Street is and remains, a quiet pocket of this ever-popular suburb.
With plenty to offer inside and out, including room for three off-street car parks, and picturesque views to the CBD and River Derwent, this property is certainly one to consider.
We can advise that the property is not recorded on the Tasmanian Heritage Register however it is heritage listed with the Hobart City Council. It lies within the NH5 Swan Street Heritage Precinct and sits adjacent to, and across the road from heritage listed buildings.
Please note: Due to the current state of the property, inspections will be by appointment only. The property is currently without power and water.
