  2. 2DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTIONS PLAN OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1 affects this parcel — verify the mapped extent against the title / planning certificate before relying on unaffected land.
  3. 3No 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

VIC

Why this lot, not just this suburb

Why could this property outperform?

Confidence: medium

Zoned NEIGHBOURHOOD RESIDENTIAL ZONE - SCHEDULE 1 · NRZ1 (ZN). Official parcel area about 266 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.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: medium

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: HERITAGE OVERLAY (HO327); DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTIONS PLAN OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $673/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.

What competition will it face?

Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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

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: HERITAGE OVERLAY (HO327); DEVELOPMENT CONTRIBUTIONS PLAN OVERLAY - SCHEDULE 1. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack.

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.

3 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Knownmedium

    Zoned NEIGHBOURHOOD RESIDENTIAL ZONE - SCHEDULE 1 · NRZ1 (ZN). Official parcel area about 266 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.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

    Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

  • Honest achievable rent

    Knownlow

  • Rental supply pressure

    Unknown

    Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.

  • Why is this cheap?

Move In, Renovate Or Develop With Three Street Frontages

If you're motivated by the prospect of making your mark on the city edge, this original four-bedroom home provides the perfect blank canvas on which to do so.

Boasting the rare treat of three street frontages on a generous 412sqm (approx.) block backing onto a laneway, the site is well suited for a modern townhouse development (STCA) to complement the premier lifestyle location footsteps from Edinburgh Gardens, St Georges Road and Nicholson Villages and the No 11 and 96 trams.

However, just because you can develop (STCA), it doesn't mean you have to, particularly considering the fantastic opportunity that exists to renovate the existing double-fronted home into a modern and magnificent family residence.

Featuring beautiful high ceilings, neat and tidy presentation, double garage, a main family bathroom, light-filled living and a timeless character, there's also scope to lease it out for others to enjoy until you're ready to action your creative vision.
