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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 524 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Milton (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,431/m² of land (n=44). 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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $549/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. 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.

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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

DONOVAN'S COTTAGE - ICONIC MILTON Circa 1870

Lovingly restored, Donovan's Cottage is an absolute treasure trove of history that will capture your heart!

Step beyond the picture perfect picket fence and transcend to a time of whimsical charm. An era when homes were built to showcase master craftsmanship and embrace bespoke design elements. Beautiful Oregon timber architraves and skirting, 2.86m ceilings, pressed metal panelling, brass tapware and fitments, all combine to recreate this gorgeous cottage. A home that has stood the test of time and been lovingly restored to her former glory (with a few modern touches to ensure comfortable living!).

Featuring a wide entrance hall with Huon Pine flooring throughout, the front sitting room is cosy and welcoming with a slow combustion fire nestled in the original fireplace. The fireplace creates a lovely focal point in the combined sitting and dining room, offering an exquisite entertaining area.

Read the full description

There are two very generous bedrooms, both with well-appointed built-in robes, reverse-cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans. The main bathroom is an absolute picture - featuring a beautifully screened shower over claw-foot bath, a timber-slab vanity, heated brass towel rail and toilet complete with vintage cistern. Absolutely every element has been completed to the highest level of detail. There is also a fully lined loft with ladder access and a window for natural light that could be utilised as a third bedroom or additional living space.

A lovely sunroom provides the perfect connection between the living area of the home and the kitchen. Offering a rustic farmhouse feel, the kitchen features timber cabinetry with metal hinges, a modern 900mm gas cooktop and electric oven set into the fireplace and a double butler's sink. The adjoining laundry doubles as a service room with dishwasher, fridge space, double butler's sink and external access.

The back porch is perfect for entertaining and there is plenty of parking. The level backyard is fully fenced with a large timber garden shed. Featuring a pretty garden and paved area with an outdoor shower with hot and cold water - perfect after a day at nearby Mollymook Beach! The cottage is positioned in the heart of Milton with fabulous restaurants, bars and cafes all within a short stroll. Or perhaps you would prefer to relax with a glass of local wine on the front porch and take in the magnificent sunset over the Budawang Ranges and Pigeon House Mountain?

Twenty years ago Donovan's Cottage was under threat of demolition to make way for a carpark! Community outcry and a diligent local builder refused to allow this iconic dwelling to succumb to such a plan and the cottage was structurally restored in 2015. In 2019, the current owner meticulously renewed the period features to complete the transformation. The home is an absolute credit to both of these owners and a fine example of Milton's historic cottages.
