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
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 2,908 m² — that is not official geometry. 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 for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $575/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. No recorded off-street parking — often a discount versus the suburb median for the same beds.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded for this property. 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 Merrifield Real EstateIf you're hankering for a big lifestyle block but don't want to compromise on location near schools, sports and other family amenities, this property 1.5km from Albany's CBD may just fit the bill.
Equally, out-of-towners looking for a city bolthole in a natural country setting would be hard pushed to find a more picturesque property for their weekends near the coast.
It's a 2908sqm holding with a 1930s cottage, priced to attract astute buyers recognising the enormous prospects it offers.
There's work to be done, but the rewards are many for buyers prepared to replace, extend or renovate the cottage and make the most of the delightful parkland block.
The land is mostly in grass with stands of native vegetation for shelter and character, and several fruit trees. It's ideal for running a few head of stock, and with two freshwater ponds as well as the Yakamia Creek flowing past the boundary, there's ample water for a horticulture venture.
A huge willow and several mature gums provide shady seating areas around the block for relaxation and appreciation of the tranquility and green space, and there's plenty of scope for children to work off their energy in natural surroundings.
Built of rendered brick, the cottage still displays the essence of its origins, though it has been extended at some stage.
Screened from the road by tall trees, it sits amid mature gardens with a circular driveway at the front.
Inside, it comprises a lounge, kitchen, dining space, one bedroom, laundry, shower and toilet, and has undercover patios at the front and rear.
While renovation or extension are possibilities, a modern home in its place, with generous living spaces, al fresco areas and sheds, would bring all the benefits of this idyllic location into a new era.
The property, to be sold 'as is', is realistically priced for a well-located and easily managed block of this size.
