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
NSWPlanning 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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $672/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.
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 Mavis Property CoAuction Location: On-site.
Built in 1917 in solid double brick, this post-Federation beauty strikes that rare balance, where heritage character is preserved, but the way you live feels completely current. The front of the home holds onto its history with eye-catching fretwork, original timber detailing and classic 10ft ceilings, before opening into a bold architectural extension by Zugai Strudwick Architects (ZSA) that shifts everything into light, space and volume.
The layout's been smartly reworked to include two under-floor heated bathrooms and a relocated third bedroom, while two separate living areas give you flexibility to spread out or come together. At the rear, a 4.5m cathedral ceiling with skylights lifts the open plan living zone, drawing in natural light and giving the whole space a sense of scale. The island kitchen takes centre stage, finished in granite with a full suite of Fisher & Paykel Pro Series appliances, integrated refrigeration, and a built-in banquette that's equal parts practical and inviting. Sliding glass doors open to a covered alfresco with a motorised blind, while electric-gated access from Corlette Street leads to a secure carport.
Comfort and efficiency are dialled in with polished concrete floors with heating, ducted a/c, Cat-6 cabling to future-proof the home, security cameras, and an 15kW solar rooftop system with 5kW inverter and 20kW battery storage, along with heat pump hot water.
Step outside and everything you love about Cooks Hill is within reach, Darby Street's cafés and dining, Centennial Park, and Bar Beach just a short walk or ride away. This is one of those homes that's rich in character, sharp in design, and perfectly placed for the lifestyle that comes with it.
- Under floor heating to open plan living area and both bathrooms, ducted a/c throughout
- Integrated fridge/freezer, 750mm induction cooktop, teriyaki plate, steam oven, pyrolytic oven including Air Fry, Pastry Bake, and Roast modes
