Given the $980,000–$1,080,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $980,000–$1,080,000(Listing record · 21 Aug 2026)
  • FactLand 683 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationAsk is 12% below the Highton median recorded sale ($1,111,000, n=11, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Highton's advertised median rent ($498/wk), implied gross yield would be 2.64% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

What could make it worth more?

No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.

What could make it worth less?

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

What should you verify next?

  1. 1Official planning layers are still retrieving for this parcel — check back before relying on zoning or overlay absence.
  2. 2No 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?

Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

What could kill that thesis?

Confidence: low

Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” 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 $498/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.

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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.6%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

Verdict

What this means for this property

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

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.

1 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

  • Nearby development pipeline

    Unknown

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

  • Honest achievable rent

    Knownlow

    This 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

    Unknown

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

  • Why is this cheap?

    Unknown

    The constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.

  • Lot-level flood

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

  • Catalyst exposure

    Unknown

    Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.

  • This lot's DA history

    Unknown

    Development applications have not been queried for this parcel.

  • Statutory land value versus ask

    Unknown

    Statutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

FOUR BEDROOMS. THREE LIVING ZONES. ONE SERIOUSLY SPACIOUS HIGHTON HOME.

If you've been searching Highton and keep finding homes that compromise on space, this one deserves your attention.

Set across a flat approximately 683m² allotment, 25 Grantham Drive delivers something increasingly difficult to find in this price bracket — a substantial single-level family home where everyone can actually have their own space.

Four bedrooms.

Read the full description

A dedicated study.

Three separate living zones.

An oversized master suite.

A genuine family backyard.

And approximately 230m² of internal living.

This isn't simply another four-bedroom Highton home.

It's a home designed for a family to spread out and stay.

THE SPACE CHANGES EVERYTHING

Walk inside and the difference becomes immediately apparent.

Rather than one open-plan room being expected to accommodate the entire family, the floorplan provides three distinct living areas plus a separate study.

Parents can entertain.

Kids can have their own retreat.

Someone can work privately from home.

And the main family zone can remain exactly that — the centre of everyday living.

For growing families and buyers upsizing from a smaller home, this is the kind of floorplan that can fundamentally change how you live.

THE KITCHEN IS BUILT FOR A HOUSE THIS SIZE

At the centre of the home is a substantial kitchen designed for everyday family life and entertaining.

A large island provides plenty of preparation and gathering space, complemented by a five-burner gas cooktop, dual ovens, generous storage and excellent connection to the adjoining living and dining areas.

Open the Norfolk doors and the entertaining space extends outside to the ModWood deck and backyard.

It's an easy transition from family dinner to weekend entertaining.

A MASTER SUITE THAT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE ONE

The oversized main bedroom creates genuine separation from the rest of the home, complete with a substantial walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite.

Three additional bedrooms provide accommodation for children, guests or extended family, while the separate study means you don't have to sacrifice a bedroom to work from home.

Central refrigerated cooling and gas heating provide year-round comfort throughout.

AND THERE'S STILL A BACKYARD.

That's important.

Despite the size of the residence, the approximately 683m² flat allotment retains a generous and usable backyard.

Room for children.

Room for pets.

Room to entertain.

Room simply to enjoy having some land around you.

For buyers comparing newer homes on increasingly compact allotments, the combination of a substantial single-level residence and usable outdoor space deserves consideration.

WHAT YOU'RE GETTING

• Four generous bedrooms

• Oversized master suite with walk-in robe and ensuite

• Dedicated home office/study

• Three separate living zones

• Approximately 230m² internal floor area

• Flat approximately 683m² allotment

• Large central kitchen

• Five-burner gas cooking

• Dual ovens

• Large island bench

• New hybrid flooring

• Central refrigerated cooling

• Gas heating

• Quality family bathroom with stone finishes

• ModWood outdoor entertaining deck

• Norfolk doors connecting indoor and outdoor living

• Generous usable backyard

• Double garage

• Single-level family-friendly floorplan

HIGHTON WITHOUT THE SPACE COMPROMISE

The location puts schools, shopping, recreation and major transport connections within easy reach while retaining the established residential environment that continues to make Highton popular with families.

The property falls within the Montpellier Primary School and Belmont High School catchments, with convenient access to the Geelong Ring Road.

And the numbers demonstrate why this campaign deserves attention.

The median price for four-bedroom Highton houses has recently been around $992,500, placing 25 Grantham Drive directly into one of the suburb's most active family-home price brackets.

IF SPACE IS ON YOUR LIST, PUT THIS HOME ON IT.

You can change flooring.

You can renovate a kitchen.

You can redesign a garden.

What is much harder to add is a flat 683m² block, approximately 230m² of home, four bedrooms, three living zones and a separate study.

25 Grantham Drive already has them.

The owners are ready to sell and genuine buyers are encouraged to inspect.

Don't make a decision on your next Highton home until you've seen how much space is on offer here.
