Districts View
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 $539/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.

Listing material
Listed by Woodards SunburyUnder Instruction from the Executor of the Estate of Mollie Dodge
Garden lovers are expected to be out in force when one of Mount Macedon's finest horticultural treasure troves goes under the hammer.
Lime Tree House, nestled among some of the Mount's most iconic historical gardens on Devonshire Lane and once part of the impressive Penrith estate, is being auctioned on Saturday, December 13.
Lime Tree House is described by rare plants specialist and former Gardening Australia TV host Stephen Ryan as ?a unique collection of interesting and exotic plants in a beautiful garden in layout, form and character in one of Mt Macedon's most beautiful laneways?.
It is named after the stunning entry avenue of lime trees overhanging equally striking carpets of English-style bulbs including bluebells, snowdrops and crocus.
Moderately sized at a little over one hectare, Lime Tree House offers all the style and rare plants variance of bigger Mt Macedon gardens nearby yet on a smaller, more manageable canvas.
With a three-bedroom 1980s brick veneer home, it is considered a dream buy for gardeners or garden lovers.
Created by well known local garden identities the late Alan and Mollie Dodge from the 1950s in what were Penrith's cow paddocks, it has won several Garden of the Year awards and featured in a Burke's Backyard TV program in which the host described its extensive hand-clipped box hedging as being the best he had ever seen.
Rich in azaleas and rhododendrons (some higher than the house itself), this mountain beauty is being sold by the Executor.
Reminiscent of an English country garden in the Cotswolds, it is highlighted by bricked paths meandering through verdant glades under century-old trees, a charming rustic entry arch to the garden itself, rock walls, snaking climbing clematis and roses, standard flowering cherry, hollies, camellias, viburnums and wild strawberries.
Out in the garden can still be found a rill and remains of an old watermill used by sawmillers in the mid-1800s when Mt Macedon was the source of much timber for Melbourne's early buildings.
Here the sounds of silence are broken only by the amazing array of birdlife.
Nearly all rooms of the 14-square house come with views to the breathtaking garden. The main bedroom includes an ensuite while the kitchen/family area, living and dining room all boast a country coziness.
A split heating/cooling system plus a woodheater ensure year-round comfort.
There is undercover parking for two cars and a delightfully rustic outbuilding once used as a milking shed when the property was part of Penrith is now used as a wood shed.
On two titles, Lime Tree House is being auctioned at 2pm on Saturday, December 13,
