Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
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
VICPlanning 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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $481/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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.

This incredible country escape is like a piece of history set in the rapidly expanding community of Marong, a 20-minute drive to Bendigo CBD.
Circa 1905, the home was the former presbytery for St Patrick's Catholic church built opposite.
Twenty years ago, the property captured the hearts of the current owners, and they have spent many hours since lavishing it with passion and careful attention to authenticity. Their labour of love is now your opportunity to step back in time and secure an outstanding, fully restored heritage property.
The solid red brick home retains a wealth of period features such as cast iron lace-trimmed return verandah, tuck pointed brickwork, high pitched roof with ornate chimney stacks,
3.8m (12"6") ceilings, sash windows, grand arched entry hall, wide ornate cornice, moulded skirting boards and architraves, polished timber floors, pressed metal/timber ceilings, open fireplaces and a claw foot bath.
Generous accommodation includes four bedrooms, two bathrooms, spacious formal lounge with a feature arched bay window with leadlight glazed fanlights, a study, 3m x 4m cellar and expansive extended open-style living/dining/kitchen areas.
The kitchen features electric cooking appliances, a dishwasher, stainless steel island, walk-in pantry and rustic timber cabinetry topped with earthy concrete benchtops.
Enjoy easy family living in the living room with a cosy Gourmet cook-on solid-fuel heater, split system air con. and French doors to a side outdoor living deck positioned to appreciate the landscaped gardens and northerly aspect. A brick wood-fired pizza oven will help with catering for family and friends.
A separate driveway leads to the restored coach house/barn, perfect for dual living/house guests or an Airbnb. Full of rustic charm and character, it incorporates a ground-floor living area, dining, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and walk-through laundry. A wooden staircase with custom-made aged wrought iron balustrading leads to the upper bedroom suite with toilet and barn doors opening to a Juliet balcony with more bespoke wrought iron.
Every piece of the approx 5156m² lot is a gardener's paradise. With the combination of fertile soil and both town and tank water, it includes a productive orchard and vegetable plot with potting shed, espaliered olive trees, drifts of hardy herbaceous plants, towering palm trees, autumn-loving ornamental pears, grapevines and much more.
Outbuildings include a three-car carport, 7.5m x 12m. Colorbond shed/workshop and hen house.
Set in the heart of the township, it's a short stroll to school, childcare, medical centre, general store, hotel and bus service to Bendigo.
