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

  • FactLand 608 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Railway Estate (last 5 years) with land size: median $949/m² of land (n=98). 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

QLD

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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $502/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. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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 Ray White Townsville

SOLD By Giovanni Spinella

The history and emotion Railway Estate is so known for is evident as you walk through the tree lined streets. Surrounded by other period homes, you will fall in love with this charming, fully renovated Queenslander and be proud to call it your very own. Built on a corner block in the early 1940's, this home has been lovingly restored to bring its character to life whilst still staying true to its traditional roots.

From the street, you are taken aback by the delightful picket fence and traditional iron roof. Ascend the stairs and into the closed in sleepout verandah hugging the inner bones of this home. Stunning polished timber floors greet you as the natural sunlight and breeze fills the space from the louvres extending and stretching around the external walls.

As you enter the main living and dining area, the height of the ceilings and the natural flow of movement draws your eyes through the space and into the heart of the home: the kitchen. This tastefully designed galley style kitchen is a modern entertainers dream. Featuring the latest appliances including a double drawer dishwasher, room for a French door fridge with plumbing, induction cooktop, giant breakfast bar, plenty of bench and storage space AND the addition of a walk-in pantry, there is ample opportunity to get creative with pairing some wine with a cheeseboard!

Read the full description

The newly renovated bathroom will allow you to take your relaxation to the next level with a double basin, crisp white and soft grey tones, a giant rainfall showerhead and a dreamy standalone bathtub. The two sizeable bedrooms inside both feature plush, deep carpet with the main boasting a large 2m x 3m walk in robe with his and her sides. Uniquely, down the stairs and past the covered double remote car garage is a modest guest retreat with an adjoined ensuite with direct access to the tiled outdoor alfresco area.

Only minutes from the Strand, Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Castle Hill, Townsville City, boat ramps and the port giving you direct access to the wonders of Magnetic Island, the location of this classic property is unbeatable. Come and explore the delights of 42 Tenth Avenue to see if this is your home sweet home.
