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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,300,000 (4 July 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 1,021 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Swansea (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,746/m² of land (n=128). 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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $602/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Read the full description

Rear lane access, makes building a second dwelling or subdivsion down the track a very real and affordable possibility.

No one is making more land, so this is like money in the bank!

There is a calm, open feel here, with space around you that is becoming increasingly hard to find this close to the channel, where mornings can begin with an easy flat stroll to the waterfront and afternoons roll into time spent in the backyard, with room for everything and more.

From the street, the home carries a charming cottage presence, framed by manicured gardens and a welcoming front porch that invites you to slow down before you even step inside.

That character continues throughout, where high ceilings and generous proportions create a light, airy feel, while the layout opens up beautifully as you move through the home toward the rear.

Bedrooms are positioned privately at the front and centre of the home, while the living zones expand out the back, creating a natural separation between rest and everyday living.

It is a layout that works effortlessly for families, guests, or those who simply appreciate space and flow.

At its heart, the home is designed for living and gathering, with a contemporary kitchen positioned centrally between the dining and living zones, allowing everything to feel connected.

The living area itself is expansive, stretching across the rear of the home and opening directly out to the covered deck, creating a seamless indoor outdoor connection that suits both entertaining and relaxed day to day living.

Set across a huge 1021sqm block with rear lane access, the opportunity here extends far beyond what you see today, whether that is additional garaging, storage for boats and caravans, or future enhancements to further capitalise on the land size.

• Charming cottage style facade with manicured gardens and a welcoming front porch

• High ceilings throughout enhancing natural light, airflow, and the overall sense of space

• Thoughtfully designed floor plan with bedrooms positioned separately from the main living

• Contemporary kitchen centrally located ideal for everyday living and entertaining

• Expansive rear living zone flows directly out to a covered deck, indoor outdoor connection

• Four generously sized bedrooms with built in robes, master suite privately set to the front

• Separate office or potential fifth bedroom located at the rear, ideal for working from home

• Well presented bathroom with practical layout, plus internal laundry with additional storage

• Split system air conditioning and ceiling fans ensuring year round comfort

• Covered outdoor entertaining deck overlooking the backyard, perfect for year round use

• Massive 1021sqm block providing an incredible sense of space, very close to the water

• Rear lane access for additional vehicles, boats, caravans, garaging or future improvements

• Incredibly wide frontage, house in the middle, so you could have vehicle access either side

• Double frontage - with street and lane vehicle access, & dual access frontage as well

• Wide, quiet street, stroll to Swansea Channel, Swansea Worker's Club & Bowling Green

• Easy stroll to Swansea shops, cafes & suite of services, with Swansea Pool seconds away

• Walk to Swansea Beach, your choice of boat ramps, and enjoy living like your on holidays

For families, this is the kind of block that becomes the backdrop to years of memories, with space for kids, pets, and future plans.

For downsizers, it offers single level living with room to move, store, and still entertain.

And for those chasing a coastal weekender or investment, the location and land size combine to create something that is increasingly hard to secure.

Positioned just moments from the water's edge, you can leave the car at home and walk flat to the channel, nearby boat ramps, and local cafés, embracing a lifestyle centred around the lake, the ocean, and everything that makes Swansea so tightly held.

Opportunities like this, where land size, layout, and location align so effortlessly, are few and far between.
