Given the $1,050,000–$1,150,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,050,000–$1,150,000(Listing record · 14 July 2026)
  • FactLand 140,100 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)

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.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.

Stamp duty and transfer fees: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

Capital growth

VIC

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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

No advertised rent and no suburb rent aggregate are loaded. Official bond files are not loaded. Listing rent and suburb aggregates are evidence, not this address’s rent.

What competition will it face?

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.

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.

0 of 10 questions answered so far

  • Development optionality of this lot

    Unknown

    Planning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet.

    Unknown

    Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”

    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.

Listing material

Listed by Tweed Sutherland First National

Crafted for Lifestyle, Designed for Independence

Imagine waking up to a sunrise over your own paddocks, coffee in hand, with nothing but birdsong and open sky. That's the rare balance this Bendigo lifestyle property delivers, contemporary design and sustainable living paired with breathtaking rural views, spectacular sunrises and unforgettable sunsets, just 20 minutes from the CBD.

This is a home built for families ready to trade the fenceline-to-fenceline suburb for real space, room for kids to roam, pets to run, and evenings that end with a sunset instead of a streetlight. Four generous bedrooms and two separate, light-filled living areas mean everyone has room to breathe, all wrapped in architecturally designed clean lines that create a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. A feature stone façade carries through from outside to in, tying the home beautifully to its rural setting.

Designed with both style and performance in mind, the home features double glazed windows, Hebel panel construction and a timber frame, delivering excellent insulation, energy efficiency and year-round comfort.

Read the full description

The heart of the home is the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, highlighted by a striking 14-foot pitched ceiling that creates an incredible sense of scale. Thoughtfully crafted, high-quality finishes run throughout, including soft sheer curtains that filter the natural light beautifully. Cosy up beside the freestanding wood fire heater, set within a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, radiating warmth and atmosphere on cool country evenings. The remaining living area and bedrooms feature 9-foot ceilings and ceiling fans throughout, keeping the home comfortable and light-filled in every season. A built-in study bench with custom cabinetry rounds things out, the perfect spot to work from home, or for the kids to settle in and study.

The main bathroom is a genuine retreat, featuring a freestanding bath and floating vanity, while the ensuite impresses with a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower, every detail finished with the same quality and care found throughout the home.

Step outside, and the lifestyle appeal only continues. A large covered decking area at the front of the home is the perfect vantage point to take in those spectacular sunrises and sunsets, with plenty of room for a firepit area to gather around on cool evenings. Established structures for climbing vines add to the character of the outdoor space, hinting at the garden's potential to mature into a true country retreat.

This property is designed for genuine self-sufficiency, powered by a 5kW off-grid solar system with automatic generator backup, so you get all the independence with none of the compromise. We advise that the property is currently off-grid, with power available approximately 1 to 1.5km from the property should a future connection be considered.

Water security is thoroughly covered too, with 22,000 gallons of rainwater storage plus two additional 5,000-gallon gravity-fed tanks supplying the home directly. A diesel pump taps into dam water for the garden and other non-potable needs, and a water race running through the property even offers the option to purchase additional water for the dam down the track.

For those with vehicles, machinery or a caravan to store, the 12m x 8m Colourbond shed is a standout, with four roller doors, a drive-through bay and a fully concreted floor, making it as functional as it is impressive. Add two undercover car spaces, a recycled septic system that quietly irrigates the lawns and gardens, and satellite internet keeping you connected to the world, and you've got a property that lets you unplug from the grid without ever unplugging from modern life.

Stunning views, contemporary architectural design, quality craftsmanship, and complete off-grid independence, this is country living exactly as it should be, all within an easy commute of Bendigo.
