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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $765,000 (1 Sept 2020).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 376 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Kensington (last 5 years) with land size: median $3,972/m² of land (n=14). 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

SA

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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $590/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. 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.

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

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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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.

Listing material

Hi! I'm a stone-fronted & renovated standout that won't wait around…

Cross your heart and hope to buy, you'll drop your latte over this one, but never fear, there's plenty of cafes on the radar, this close to Kensington Road…

But there's not many opportunities like this. A stone fronted, beautifully renovated 1920s bungalow on a 376sqm* corner block, this 2-bedder will be hard-fought by those seeking freestanding style in the high-end east.

Plantation shutters filter light throughout, timber floorboards shine their chic, a lick of white is always a winner, but wait till you and the bathroom get acquainted; this home's lining up for a gong…

Read the full description

Chipping away the wall between the living room and new kitchen was also a brave yet clever open plan move, especially given the galley-style cooking zone, its subway tiles, induction cooktop, stainless appliances and swanky new joinery deserve to be seen.

If two double bedrooms – the master with twin robes and a decorative fireplace – are all you need, you'll be more than satisfied. High ceilings, natural light, and ample legroom the beneficial extras.

To the back, the bathroom's once over is above and beyond. Divine, in fact. Sunlit, fully tiled, sans glass, and all class.

And beyond the cute back porch, the courtyard garden is the best kind – established, green, and issuing all the privacy in the world – with the scope to build out if you want to (STCC).

Or be pretty darn chuffed with what you've got, including a backdoor pass to a secure single garage pulling in from Dankel Avenue.

We all know spruiking Kensington is pointless. We know Kensi Road, Burnside Village, and The Parade answer your retail and caffeine prayers, there'll be no car pile ups at Marryatville Primary's gates or a host of private schools, and this standout beauty won't wait around…

Check it out:

Fully renovated 2-bed bungalow on a quaint 376sqm* corner block

All-new kitchen with induction cooktop & ASKO dishwasher

Shaker-style robes to master

Plantation shutters & timber floors

Chic bathroom conversion

Daikin ducted reverse cycle air conditioning

Secure single garage off Dankel Avenue

Established & private front & rear gardens

Close to Pembroke, St. Ignatius, St. Joseph's & Mary McKillop College

Zoned to Marryatville Primary & Norwood Morialta High School

Location supremacy, 4kms* to town…
