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
SAPlanning 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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $579/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. 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.
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 Ray White GrangeCurrently home to a 3-bedroom stone-fronted bungalow that needs work but has good bones, it's the substantial 956sqm (approx.) size of this block and its walking distance proximity to the beach that will ultimately secure the interest of renovators looking for a relic to reimagine and buyers scouting for sites with scope to accommodate an all-new build (STCC).
Tucked in off Bower Road, which connects the property with Semaphore South Beach and vibrant Port Adelaide to the east, 28 Bray Avenue sits alongside a mix of other character homes and exciting modern residences. The block is deep, with no significant trees listed, opening the door to a possible modern rear extension and improved outdoor entertaining facilities (STCC); there's also capacity for a single driveway to run down the side of the house and meet future secure garaging.
As is, the bungalow's list of charming historic features includes a gable-roofed front verandah, timber floorboards/architraves, and high ceilings. Two beds and a compact bathroom (shower-over-tub) branch off an entry passage that extends into a lounge with a servery into a separate dining room -all these spaces crying out for attention. Out back is a 3rd bed and a refurbished kitchen opening onto a covered verandah with the WC at one end.
Renovators will likely rejig the floor plan to retain the villa's look and main front rooms, while adding a thoughtful extension to bring in larger bedrooms, extra bathrooms, light-filled internal living spaces, and alfresco entertaining areas (STCC). Of course, if your heart is set on something altogether modern, there's certainly room across this big block to entertain all sorts of creative designs (STCC).
What is locked in place is this super location, just a 15-minute walk to cooling beach dips, and even closer to a playground, sporting facilities and the train station to get into town. If you crave the seaside life, this is where you could create a home that's all you ever dreamed of!
