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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,443,500 (20 Sept 2024).(Recorded sale)

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

ACT

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $520/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. 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.

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.

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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property.

  • 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. This jurisdiction has no comparable official bond series in the free set.

  • 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.

A FABULOUS FAMILY HOME TO SUIT EVERYONE'S NEEDS

Today's family home is not just a shelter; it is a place where everyone's diverse needs are catered for. The "must-have" needs of the family changes as the children grow older and this home ensures those needs are well and truly met.

When entertaining family and friends, the formal lounge and dining room provides a quiet area for the adults to engage in conversation whilst in the family/meals area, or downstairs in the rumpus room, the children/young adults can enjoy their own space to watch TV or chat whilst remaining connected to the family upstairs.

An adjoining room to the rumpus room could be used for a home/office work area or when the children need a quiet space for study, music or arts and crafts. There is a bathroom with shower, toilet, and vanity on this level as well as plenty of storage cupboards and under stairs storage.

Read the full description

The kitchen has a practical design which overlooks the family/meals area and back garden and features a gas cook top, electric oven, dishwasher, pantry, ample cupboard space and a breakfast bar. Access to the covered patio and back garden is via a glass sliding door.

The very spacious main bedroom with built in robes and ensuite is located to the front of the home. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are positioned to the rear along with the three-way bathroom, laundry room and linen press. Bedroom No. 4 is currently used as a study with a built-in desk and bookcases.

With the warmer weather getting closer each month, the paved area in the back garden can be used for outdoor entertaining, with enough space to kick a ball around or play in the cubbyhouse. Plenty of room for the keen gardeners to grow your own vegies or maintain the well-established plantings. There is an automatic watering system in the back garden. This area is also pet-friendly.

Other features include ducted gas heating (zoned to the lounge and dining room), evaporative cooling, brand new carpet, freshly painted, ducted vacuum, and double garage with remote controlled door and internal access. There is plenty of storage underneath the house which is accessed via the garage.

The Isaacs shops is a short stroll from the home and public transport bus stops are available at the shops or the bus stop located on the corner of Maclagan Street and Julia Flynn Avenue.

Isaacs is next to the suburbs of O'Malley, Mawson, and Farrer. It is bounded by Yamba Drive and Ngunawal Drive. Located in the suburb is the Canberra Nature Park of Isaacs Ridge and the Long Gully pine plantation. Access to the walking/running or cycling trails of the Ridge is close by.

The suburb is named after Sir Isaac Isaacs (1855–1948), politician, Chief Justice and the first Australian-born Governor-General of Australia (1931–1936). The suburb's theme is 'educationists'; the streets are therefore named after people associated with Australian education.
