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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 1,248 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Surrey Hills (last 5 years) with land size: median $3,109/m² of land (n=43). 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 $640/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 Bekdon Richards

Family Classic Homeb Amongst Vast Gardens on 1248sqm

Taking in an elevated aspect across its glorious gardens, this treasured home is offered for the first time since it was built in c1961. Nestled amongst 1248sqm (approx) of tranquil much-loved greenery, the character-filled home is rich with charm & personality whilst presenting potential & options galore for the future.

Accommodation offered is warm & inviting, featuring a cosy formal lounge with crackling open fireplace along with a dining room complete with a built-in mid-century buffet. More living space sits alongside the generous timber kitchen, whilst outside is a sheltered terrace where a whimsical spiral staircase takes you down to the huge garden.

The three bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes include a spacious main - together they share an updated spa bathroom with practical two-way WC. But it is the additional versatile spaces that will ignite interest - leading past a separate study, under the house is substantial storage, a workshop, studio and huge double garage. Perfect for a mechanic or any hobbyist, this could be just what you have been seeking.

Read the full description

Practicalities comprise a large laundry, water tank and outdoor utility area, while quirks include a laundry chute and grocery pulley system up from the garage - hydronic heating and a split system keep the home comfortable.

Welcoming as is with scope to modernise as you see fit, there is also the opportunity to extend the accommodation while still leaving plenty of garden. Instead, you may be inspired by neighbouring developments to capitalise on the rare dimensions of the land to pursue a luxury multi-dwelling development (all STCA).

Alongside the local park and steps to Wattle Park, playground, cricket oval and golf course, this classic home is near buses & trams and mere moments to shops. In-zone for Camberwell High School and Wattle Park Primary, there is also Siena College, PLC and Deakin University nearby.
