Districts View
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.

Planning
Planning data is being calculated
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
TASPlanning 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.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $554/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.

Listing material
Listed by EIS Property'Maidstone' circa 1897 is a generously proportioned Federation Queen Anne home, privately hidden from street view and securely positioned behind a gated driveway on an allotment of over 7000sqm of lawns and established grounds. Elevated to take in panoramic views of Hobart's River Derwent, encompassing Wrest Point, Sandy Bay and the city, a tennis court, swimming pool and pool house complement this elegant brick home, culminating in a truly unsurpassed offering within minutes of Hobart's CBD.
Set across one level the floorplan accommodates multiple reception rooms, currently configured as formal living, formal dining and a family room. The kitchen is spacious and the contemporary renovated bathroom with free standing tub and additional powder room services four double bedrooms, the master suite with dressing room. The flexibility of the floorplan affords scope for the next owners to implement updates to suit their accommodation requirements.
Classic original features remain in situ throughout with timber floorboards, ornate plasterwork, fireplaces and surrounds, leadlight accents and picture rails enhancing the ambience and character of the home and displaying a level of craftsmanship unobtainable in modern builds. Rooms at the front of the house enjoy picturesque water views and access to the front verandah, and gas hydronic heating ensures year round comfort.
The self-contained pool house with bathroom facilities is located directly off the pool deck and adjacent to the tennis court, providing the convenience of guest accommodation separate to the main house.
Fortunately much has been documented on the history of Maidstone, with this 1894 subdivision heralding the development of the higher reaches of Elphinstone Road as a popular residential area for Hobart's wealthier citizens in the early 1900s. This pocket of Mount Stuart is now sought after for its sunny position and close proximity to excellent local schools and amenities, with the State Cinema and cafes, bars and restaurants of the popular North Hobart strip a short stroll away.
An enduring and impressive piece of Tasmania's history, Maidstone represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire the rarity of a beautiful historic home and substantial holding offering privacy, tranquillity and mesmerising views in an urban locale.
