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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $678,000 (2 Apr 2022).(Recorded sale)

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 $545/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.

Luxury Living On The Lake

Best Offer by 12 noon 13 April (unless sold prior)

Price: $625,000 to $650,000

For those searching for relaxed comfortable set and forget living - your search may well be over! Discover this beautifully appointed low maintenance town house, built by Medallion Homes Circa 2011. The home has views over the lake at Franklin Island and has access to a beautiful little park, which in turn leads to a white sandy beach - the perfect spot to go for a swim or launch your kayak.

Read the full description

The home is one of five Torrens Title executive town houses built to a high standard, offering everything you need to enjoy the comforts of relaxed modern lifestyle living. Enter the home from Malen Avenue - an exposed aggregate driveway leads to the two car garage (with separate automatic panel lift doors), which in turn leads to a covered alfresco entertaining area, before entering the home. Once inside you will immediately notice the warmth of the spotted gum floating floor which runs throughout the downstairs living area - open plan kitchen/living/dining - with large picture windows taking in the view of the front garden and lake. The "Jag" kitchen features a large island bench/breakfast bar with Caesarstone benchtops, quality soft-close cabinetry and Miele appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the laundry and a very handy downstairs powder room.

The wide stairway takes you upstairs, which is disposed to a second living room, which divides bedrooms two and three from the master bedroom suite. The master enjoys views of the park and lake and comes with built-in robes and a beautiful ensuite bathroom with stone topped double vanity, large shower alcove, wc and white floor to ceiling tiles. Bedrooms two and three both have built-in robes - all bedrooms have ceiling fans. Ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning is found throughout the home. The main bathroom is accessed off the upstairs living room and again features a Caesarstone topped vanity, shower and wc. Other features of the home include a security system and large under-stair storage space.

Your lifestyle will be further enhanced by being just a short walk to the Boulevard Café on the lake, lakeside beach and the beautiful coastal walk along Franklin Parade, with its spectacular ocean views taking In Wright Island and The Bluff at Encounter Bay. A two minute drive will have you in the centre of the Victor Harbor township and the South Coast General Hospital is just around the corner. Apart from the amazing lifestyle choices on offer, the home is ideally suited to either permanent or holiday rental and is currently tenanted under a periodic lease.

An idyllic coastal residence or holiday escape - ideally suited to either permanent or holiday rental - offering an enviable lock-up and leave lifestyle!
