Given the $1,570,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,570,000(Listing record · 5 June 2026)
  • FactLand 597 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationAsk is 40% below the Robertson median recorded sale ($2,605,000, n=17, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Robertson's advertised median rent ($655/wk), implied gross yield would be 2.17% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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

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 $655/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.2%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. 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.

Endearing Elegance, Built to Last, A True 1981 Mater Prize Home

There's a reason homes from this era still stand with such presence today - they were simply built differently.

Positioned proudly in the heart of Robertson, this 1981 Mater Prize Home is a striking reminder of a time when quality, scale, and craftsmanship were non-negotiable. Constructed to showcase the very best in residential design, Mater Prize Homes were renowned for their superior build, generous proportions, and luxurious finishes - a standard that is increasingly rare in today's market.

Lovingly owner-occupied and meticulously maintained, this residence offers a level of substance you can feel the moment you step inside. Solid construction, expansive interiors, and thoughtful design define the home, with multiple oversized living and dining areas that cater effortlessly to both everyday living and large-scale entertaining - a feature seldom replicated in modern builds.

Read the full description

The interiors proudly embrace their era, with tasteful wallpapers, rich colour palettes, and distinctive design details, complemented by beautiful furnishings that enhance the warmth and character of the home. Every space feels generous, comfortable, and intentional - this is a home you truly need to walk through to fully appreciate.

Features include:

-Impressive North-facing 21m frontage, grand street presence and future potential

-Three spacious bedrooms - each with oversized built-in wardrobes, including a private master retreat

-Two bathrooms and a Powder Room, well-kept and highly functional

-Secure two-car garage with additional storage

Multiple oversized living and dining zones, rarely seen today

-Plenty of extra deep storage space - not the shallow linen cupboards

-Large laundry downstairs - all separate and spacious

-Security system with CCTV for added peace of mind

-In-built secret safe - (revealed upon settlement!)

-Low-maintenance backyard and courtyard with outdoor goldfish pond - convenience and fengshui all in one

Externally, the home is nothing short of iconic. The façade is bold, expressive, and instantly recognisable - a true standout that reflects the confidence and individuality of 1980s design.

Set Back, Private & Surprisingly Peaceful

Despite its prominent position, the home is set well back from the road, introduced by a wide, grand entrance that allows for multiple additional vehicles - a rare and highly practical feature for families, guests, or those running a business from home.

Step inside, close the doors, and the outside world fades. What remains is a sense of calm and privacy that feels almost unexpected - a private, substantial residence with its own quiet rhythm.

It's easy to picture the lifestyle here - a glass of wine in hand, soft jazz playing in the background, and the comfort of generous, well-built spaces surrounding you. This is a home that absorbs sound, holds warmth, and creates an atmosphere you won't find in lightweight modern builds.

Unmatched Connectivity & Convenience

Beyond its character, the location delivers exceptional lifestyle appeal. Positioned along Kessels Road, the home offers direct access to M3 Pacific Motoreway and connectivity to major arterial routes, placing you within minutes of everything that matters.

You are moments from Sunnybank Plaza, Market Square, Sunny Park Shopping Centre, & Westfield Garden City, one of Brisbane's premier retail and dining destinations, along with easy access to Brisbane's leading schools, Robertson State School & Macgregor State High School, Griffith University, and The University of Queensland just a short drive away. Healthcare is equally convenient, with the Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Hospital nearby, alongside a range of medical and specialist services. Short stroll to Nissan Arena and Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS).

Whether it's daily convenience, education, or long-term investment fundamentals - this location continues to outperform for a reason.

Flexible Living | Dual Occupancy or Home Business Potential

One of the home's most compelling features is its versatility. The well-considered separation between upstairs and downstairs creates an opportunity for dual occupancy-style living, ideal for extended families, teenagers, or additional income potential.

Alternatively, the layout lends itself to home business use, supported by approved signage exposure (STA) along this high-visibility position. It's a rare combination - residential comfort with genuine flexibility for those looking to integrate lifestyle and work.

A Home That Stands Apart

Homes of this calibre offer a level of structural integrity, space, and craftsmanship that is increasingly hard to find - a testament to an era where homes were built to endure, not just to meet a brief.

Set within a highly sought-after and well-connected pocket of Robertson, this is more than a home - it's a statement of a bygone standard, one that reminds us:

they simply don't build them like this anymore.
