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 $563/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.

Rental supply pressure
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?

Listing material
Listed by Ray White The Bayside GroupEvery once in a while we're given the opportunity to present something exciting and utterly unique to the bayside marketplace - and this, ladies and gentleman, is one of those times!
Tucked in at the end of a tight-knit cul-de-sac, this architectural 60's home occupies a 559sqm (approx) wedge-shaped garden block with the broadest north-facing boundary of all others in the court, and the surrounding area, too!
Long-standing Mentone residents will be familiar with the "Hoysted Estate" - named after the famous Hoysted family who ran their horse race training enterprises from this land almost a century ago.
The home's only owners certainly made sure to take absolute advantage of the property's idyllic aspect, which captures the sun through full-height panoramic windows from early morning, noon and the late afternoon.
Abundant sunlight and lush garden vistas steal the show in every room - and yet, the extensively paved entertainer's courtyard-type exterior is deceivingly manageable - absolute enjoyment without ever having to start the mower again!
Thoughtfully designed and lovingly developed over time, the home is a creative celebration of simplistic 1960s eclecticism, with a distinctly retro vibe that is still so relevant and groovy baby' today. Split system air-conditioning on both levels, gas heating, an open fireplace, minor updates and renovations throughout. Double carport, an attached storeroom and a rainwater tank to the gardens.
Featuring three bedrooms and two bathrooms - master with walk-in robe and modern ensuite - and you could easily divide the huge upstairs bedroom into two or have 2 of the kids sharing.
Three generous, separate living zones opening to outdoor areas - an open plan kitchen, dining and lounge with a fireplace, a large upstairs retreat with a brand-new air-conditioner and a balcony And finally, beautiful slate tiles in the sunroom only enhance the rich earthy undertones that permeate throughout, along with exposed beamed ceilings and the stunning outdoor views.
You're in the heart of it all here, within an easy walk from vibrant Balcombe Road and Como Parade shopping strips and Mentone train station. For families are the area's most renowned public and private schools - zoned for Mentone Primary, and Parkdale, Mentone Girls', Beaumaris & Cheltenham Secondary Colleges. Close to Mentone and Mentone Girls Grammar, Kilbreda, St Bede's and more.
We promise you will love this home and the peace it washes over you as much as we do. It's been so well looked after you won't need to do a thing - but if you have plans to renovate in the future, you'll certainly be inspired by the treasures already here!
