Given the $1,450,000–$1,590,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,450,000–$1,590,000(Listing record · 20 Apr 2026)
  • FactLand 1,720 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)

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.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.

Stamp duty and transfer fees: South Australia schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

Capital growth

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?

No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

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.

0 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

    Unknown

    No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

  • 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

Listed by Adcock Real Estate

A charming, quiet achiever with an income-ready commercial edge

When a mid-century charmer becomes a multi-dimensional performer - a unique mix of home, income, and open book opportunity in a pivotal position along Charleston's scenic main strip.

As a refurbished all-rounder with untold value, rare flexibility, and multiple income streams already in place, it's a property with purpose - and one already a step ahead of your plans.

The street-facing shopfront serves as the town post office, already paying its way. Next door, the one-bedroom studio home - formerly a bookshop and café - returns $400 per week with a tenant in place until October 2026.

Read the full description

And the attached three-bedroom home is already securely leased at $600 per week until July 2027, delivering an immediate residential income stream from day one.

For the investor, entrepreneur, home business operator or family seeking supplementary income, it's a proposition that has already proven its ability to evolve.

With discreet, separate entry, the main home captures all the warmth of its era: 3m ceilings, sash windows, polished timber floors, and a large living room anchored by a stone-mantled fireplace.

A lifestyle that lets you exist in the quiet shadows of the shopfront.

The eat-in kitchen is a sunlit flashback to mid-century style. The three newly carpeted bedrooms share a vintage-modern bathroom, while the entire wing benefits from the central combustion fire.

Outside, it's 100 per cent country.

Dotted with fruit trees, lawns, shade, a chicken coop and run, its sweeping green space says explore a mini-orchard - or expand your veggie repertoire - on a 1723sqm landholding with credentials unmatched.

A paved, undercover entertaining zone doubles as an additional carport against driveway access to an open rear garage and a separate studio/workshop - infinitely rewarding as an office, creative space, or retreat.

As for the self-sufficient front studio, it's joined via a central storeroom, which means it can become part of the home or remain as is - an integral money-spinner in a country town with plenty of tourist traffic.

Ride the Amy Gillett Bikeway, duck out for a pub meal and an ale, nip into Woodside or Lobethal in minutes, or hit the north-eastern suburbs (via TTP) in around 35.

Relax into the lifestyle, lease the lot, or run a business while you live on site - it's called incredible diversification from a rare and charming Charleston achiever.
