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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,320,000 (26 Mar 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 2,536 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Ferny Creek (last 5 years) with land size: median $465/m² of land (n=63). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

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?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $610/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. 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.

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

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

  • 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. Official bond files (postcode or suburb × type × bedrooms) are not loaded yet.

  • 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.

Listing material

Listed by Bell Real Estate Belgrave

Sunlit Gardens & Hillside Serenity on a Flat ½ Acre

Tucked into a peaceful cul-de-sac in one of Ferny Creek’s most coveted pockets, this beautifully evolved 1960s residence sits proudly on an exceptionally rare flat half-acre (approx. 2512m²) - a sun-drenched expanse where flourishing gardens, open skies and birdsong create a daily sense of calm.

The setting alone is remarkable. Lawns stretch wide and welcoming, framed by European-inspired plantings that shift with the seasons. Magnolias, maples, silver birch, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and flowering perennials bring colour and texture year-round, while a pond sits quietly among the greenery. A citrus grove offers lemons and mandarins ready for the kitchen, olive trees add Mediterranean charm, and herbs grow within easy reach. There’s even a Japanese-inspired Zen garden - a tranquil pocket designed for stillness.

Inside, the home reflects decades of thoughtful evolution. Originally built in the 1960s and extended over time, it offers a wonderfully flexible layout that adapts easily to modern family life. Polished hardwood floors, ornate cornices and generous windows create a sense of warmth and light throughout.

Read the full description

Three distinct living zones allow space for both gathering and retreat. A welcoming lounge/sitting room invites slower evenings, while the refreshed country-style kitchen/meals anchors everyday life with granite benches, stainless steel appliances and a perfect view of the gardens. Toward the rear, a lavish living/dining domain centres around a crackling Coonara fireplace and French doors that spill to the courtyard framed by manicured hedges. It’s the perfect spot to host the extended family or for enjoying quiet winter evenings as rain drifts softly across the garden outside.

Accommodation includes three bedrooms, with the main suite enjoying its own ensuite and walk-in robe. The spacious family bathroom features both bath and a rain shower, with a charming bay window that brings natural light gently into the space.

Adding another layer of flexibility, a separate studio with barn-style door and raked ceilings sits tucked within the grounds. Whether imagined as a fourth bedroom, creative studio, home office, gym or teen retreat, it offers endless possibilities.

Outdoors, life unfolds at a slower pace. Entertain on the private deck, watch kookaburras claim their afternoon perch, or wander barefoot through the garden while wallabies, echidnas or lyrebirds occasionally pass through like quiet neighbours. Children will never tire of the wide-open lawns, while a potential chook run sits ready for those dreaming of a small slice of country life.

Practicality is equally impressive. A mammoth four-car powered garage, additional carport, extensive flat off-street parking and five rainwater tanks ensure the property works just as well for tradies, hobbyists or families with caravans and boats.

Despite the sense of peaceful seclusion, Ferny Creek Primary School, forest walks, the iconic 1000 Steps, cafés and Upper Ferntree Gully Station are only minutes away - all within a welcoming hills community where evening strolls and friendly waves are simply part of life.
