Given the $929,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $929,000(Listing record · 30 June 2026)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Newtown (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,117/m² of land (n=112). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)
  • CalculationAsk is 26% above the Newtown median recorded sale ($740,000, n=105, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Newtown's advertised median rent ($487/wk), implied gross yield would be 2.73% — 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 $487/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 2.7%. 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.

Listing material

BEAUTIFULLY REIMAGINED, RICH IN CHARACTER

Rich in character, beautifully proportioned and thoughtfully renovated, this is a home that celebrates the craftsmanship of a bygone era while embracing the comfort and functionality of modern living. Behind its charming façade lies a residence that has been meticulously transformed, preserving the features that make character homes so desirable while introducing a level of quality that today's buyers will truly appreciate.

From the moment you step inside, the home immediately captures your attention. Soaring ceilings, traditional VJ walls and an abundance of natural light create an inviting sense of space, while every renovation has been completed with respect for the home's heritage.

The kitchen is undoubtedly the centrepiece of the home. Beautifully appointed with Caesar stone waterfall bench tops, quality cabinetry, a Bosch dishwasher and a 900mm free standing gas cooktop and oven, it has been designed to be both functional and beautiful. Whether preparing family meals or entertaining friends, it is a space that effortlessly brings people together.

Read the full description

Flowing from the kitchen is the light-filled open-plan living area, where beautiful heritage casement windows frame the room, inviting an abundance of natural light and cooling breezes while adding to the timeless character that makes this home so special. Beyond the main living space, the fourth bedroom provides exceptional flexibility to suit your lifestyle. Equally suited as a second living area, media room, formal dining room or guest bedroom, it offers the versatility every modern family is searching for. Timber-look flooring complements the warmth and character of the home, while split-system air conditioning and ceiling fans throughout provide year-round comfort.

The bedrooms have been thoughtfully designed to provide both comfort and practicality. Each is generously proportioned, featuring soft carpet underfoot, excellent built-in storage and tasteful feature walls that add warmth and personality. Beautiful glass windows allow natural light to filter through while complementing the home's enduring character, air conditioned for year round comfort creating peaceful retreats that are as inviting as they are functional.

Both bathrooms have been renovated to an exceptional standard and are simply stunning. The master ensuite is elegant and refined, while the main bathroom is a true showpiece, featuring a freestanding bath, classic tiling and quality finishes that create a sense of understated luxury.

Outside, the home continues to impress. Established gardens provide privacy and a peaceful backdrop for everyday living, while the fully fenced yard offers plenty of room for children and pets to enjoy. An electric gate to the double carport, secure under-house parking, storage and a separate workshop space. 

Beneath the home, a substantial covered outdoor entertaining area provides a private and sheltered space for year-round enjoyment. Whether hosting family and friends or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon, this additional zone adds another layer of versatility to the home

Situated in one of Ipswich's most tightly held suburbs, the location is every bit as impressive as the home itself.

For generations, Newtown has been regarded as one of the city's premier character precincts. Wide tree-lined streets, beautiful period homes and an undeniable sense of history have made it one of Ipswich's most desirable places to call home.

Despite its peaceful setting, everything is within easy reach. The Ipswich CBD is only minutes away, placing cafés, restaurants, shopping and the vibrant Nicholas Street Precinct at your fingertips. Spend weekends strolling through Queens Park and Limestone Park, enjoying the Ipswich Nature Centre, or take advantage of the suburb's close proximity to Ipswich Girls' Grammar School and many of the region's leading private & public schools.

Character homes of this calibre, in a location of this quality, are becoming increasingly difficult to secure. Combining timeless charm with a beautifully considered renovation, 45 Glebe Road presents an opportunity to own a home that is every bit as special as the suburb it calls home.
