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
QLDPlanning 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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $851/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. 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.
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
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 Place BulimbaOccupying a blue-chip position in one of Bulimba's most coveted streets, this landmark residence blends timeless Queenslander charm with luxurious modern functionality. Elevated across an expansive 1,012sqm allotment, it captures sweeping, uninterrupted views from the city skyline to Newstead, Teneriffe, and New Farm.
Privately positioned behind secure gates and manicured gardens, this distinguished residence makes a striking first impression. A sweeping driveway leads to the freshly painted façade and grand front staircase, setting the tone for the elegance within.
Inside, the upper level is a celebration of space, light, and elevated family living. At the front, a grand formal living room framed by walls of glass opens to the expansive front verandah—offering spectacular city and district views from every angle. This showstopping space is the first of three internal living zones, contributing to the home's rare versatility and making it a true family compound.
Soaring ceilings and freshly polished timber floors flow through to a large open-plan living and dining area at the rear, perfectly connected to the outdoors via sliding doors. A thoughtfully designed double study nook adds flexibility for work or study.
The kitchen is equally impressive—well-appointed with sleek stone benchtops, premium appliances, extensive storage, and an oversized island ideal for entertaining or casual family meals.
To the rear, the home opens onto a vast entertaining deck overlooking a private, level lawn and a sparkling saltwater pool with tie deck—designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Underneath the deck, additional external storage provides practical space for garden gear, bikes, and more.
The master suite is privately tucked away at the front of the home and enjoys its own private deck, walk-in robe, and elegant ensuite. Luxe feature wallpaper brings a refined, designer feel to the space. Also on this level are a second bedroom, stylish family bathroom, and separate powder room.
Downstairs, a wide staircase with oversized window floods the lower level with natural light. A spacious rumpus with kitchenette opens to a second outdoor entertaining terrace and the landscaped front yard —ideal as a teen retreat, guest quarters, or additional family living space.
Three generous bedrooms with built-in robes, a full family bathroom, and internal access from the garage complete this incredibly functional lower level.
Car accommodation includes two lock-up garages, a carport, and an additional off-street space behind a second electric gate. At the front of the property, a built-in firepit surrounded by lush greenery provides yet another inviting outdoor zone.
Situated just moments from the lifestyle and dining precinct of Oxford Street, the Apollo Road ferry, local parks, and Bulimba Golf Club, this exceptional address also lies within the catchments of Bulimba State School and Balmoral High, and close to Lourdes Hill and Saints Peter & Paul's. With the future Bulimba Barracks precinct close by, this home offers timeless character, family scale, and future lifestyle upside.
A rare opportunity to secure a landmark family compound in one of Brisbane's most tightly held riverside enclaves. Elevated, elegant, and irreplaceable.
