What should you know about this lot before spending serious money?

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,150,000 (21 Dec 2023).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 506 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Swansea (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,745/m² of land (n=128). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $602/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. 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.

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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Excellence in Housing Award Winner - Delivering an Idyllic Empty Nesters Lake House Lifestyle, Exquisitely Renovated with Caravan/Motorhome Parking!

We challenge you to find a more well thought out and beautifully executed renovated cottage in Swansea.

This is no slap happy typical Swansea renovation, this is a masterful transformation, with the highest level of research, thinking, planning, detail, execution and finishing having gone into.

It is so far beyond what we typically see, it's left us quite literally gobsmacked.

Read the full description

With an appreciation of beautiful cottage architecture, the owners of this original golden oldie were determined to embrace and retain, the very best of this property's stunning cottage looks and it's old world charm.

At the same time, they wanted to step away from the typical heavy maintenance associated with traditional cottage living, and take advantage of more innovative products available today.

They wanted beautiful, but wonderfully functional fixtures and fittings, that would not only look spectacular, but make life as easy as possible, as they headed into their twilight years and traveled extensively.

Embracing solar passive living and features we've not seen before, the finished product is this wonderful blend of iconic cottage elements, combined with modern materials and products, that sit comfortably within the context of an older Lakeside cottage, the result it outstanding and it's easy to understand why it was an award winner for housing excellence.

This is not the biggest house, it's not the grandest house, it's actually so much more.

This is truly a home, a home that's incredibly inviting, wonderfully welcoming, refreshingly renovated, and oh just oh so enjoyable to live in and visit.

To be honest we can't imagine how these owners can possibly bear to leave it, and their kids and grandkids are not impressed.

They've watched the parents/grandkids masterfully create something truly special, they've seen something good evolve into something extraordinary.

Purposely designed around creating a magic space to retreat to, a mini, easy care oasis in an idyllic location.

With room for a boat, 4 wheel drive and much more in the garage plus a dedicated carport tucked away at the rear for a motorhome or caravan, it's the perfect setup for retiree traveling nomads.

Strolling distance to The Lake, The Channel, cafes, restaurants, clubs, hotels, supermarkets and every manner of shops and services, the kids and grandkids never imagined Mum and Dad/Nan and Pop would ever move on from here.

Set up with the perfect plunge pool, that looks after itself, stunning all weather outdoor living, with a to die for big kitchen, flowing out to open plan living, with spacious bedrooms at either end of the home, and not 1 but 2 new bathrooms, no one could imagine a better home for them to be in or a better location.

Just when our owners should be kicking back and enjoying all the fruits of their labor and being rewarded for all the time and effort they put into planning their perfect empty nester, forever lifestyle home, instead they've discovered a much more challenging proposition up The Coast, and gluttons for punishment they're going to roll up their sleeves and take on a project that would terrify most of us!

So if you've been searching for the perfect downsize, where quality, ingenuity and convenience are at the forefront of your mind, where maintenance is a dirty word and lifestyle is big in the agenda, this property is going to knock your socks off …
