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 $553/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 Ripple RealtyLocated in quiet and sought-after heritage area of West Hobart, close to the CBD and local amenities - this outstanding three-bedroom property with a charming cottage feel has been transformed into a spacious and inviting family home.
Built circa 1900 and known as 'St Benin', an extension and comprehensive renovations were added to the original dwelling in 2007. The extensive upgrades included all new services, electrics, plumbing, sewer line, new roof and guttering, storm water and water supply, NBN and new windows with Pilkington laminated glass which provides energy efficiency, solar control, and noise reduction (The front windows have not been replaced).
The result is an impressive and functional open plan layout - the cosy lounge featuring a beautiful vintage Nectre wood heater, flowing seamlessly into the generous dining area and light-filled kitchen - with ample storage, a lovely outlook over the garden, and views of the River Derwent and hills beyond. Temperature is maintained throughout the whole space with reverse cycle air conditioning.
Sunlight streams into the rear of the house in the morning and from the side veranda in the afternoon, sliding doors open onto a wide roofed Modwood deck - a sheltered spot perfect for entertaining with friends, dining outdoors, or to admire the private and easily maintained grounds at any time of year.
The home offers three sizeable bedrooms, two with built-in combination wardrobes. The upstairs bedroom enjoys a sunny, elevated aspect with fantastic views, and makes an ideal second living area if preferred. There's a well-appointed bathroom with all facilities, plus an extra toilet off the laundry which has generous storage.
Situated on a manageable, flat block, the property includes secure off-street parking for two cars, a garden shed, and a workshop. The rear yard contains an expansive 'gardener's garden', with established raised beds full of produce, a green house, a variety of fruiting plants (such as greengages, raspberries, and loganberries), and colourful blooms through every season.
This safe and community-minded neighbourhood has cafés, shops, health care, a pharmacy, post office, pub, bus service, and the original Hill St Grocer just around the corner. North Hobart's renowned retail and entertainment precinct is close by, and walking or cycling to work is a natural choice as central Hobart is a mere 2km away. An oval and small playground are directly opposite, and Lansdowne Crescent Primary School is quick 200m walk away, making this a wonderful position for young families.
