  • FactLand 4,401 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded Rural Property sales in Palmwoods (last 5 years) with land size: median $91/m² of land (n=12). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

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

QLD

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 $884/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.

First Time to Market in 37 Years: Renovator's Delight!

Tightly held since 1989, this fully fenced, flat, 4401m2 parcel of land with charming post-war home, sheds, and water tanks, offers an exceptional opportunity for a renovator/tradie to reimagine and/or restore to former glory and reap rewards in terms of liveability and capital gain.

The home itself comprises three bedrooms, original bathroom and kitchen, separate living areas, covered deck, ramp to laundry, and double carport. In mostly original condition there is the very clear potential to renovate with period features such as casement windows, decorative ceilings in living, timber floorboards under carpets, and an old-school woodfire oven/stove ready for restoration.

Other features of note include 3kW solar power, approximately 60,000-litres of water storage, 2 x storage sheds (extra parking for 4+ vehicles), and permit to pump water from Paynter Creek at rear. On a prime corner block with fully useable land and lush, rich fertile soil for growing produce; this is a beautiful block of land.

Read the full description

It's also worth noting that this property has the option to lease the 2,429sqm block directly adjoining it on the northern side, as well as the possible option to purchase (discuss with agents); it's currently up for rent at $759.70 (inc GST) per quarter. This would provide valuable extra space as well as ongoing access to the many established lemon trees planted, and would mean you own that entire corner parcel (if purchased).

On a prime corner block just 850-metres to Palmwoods State School, 1.3-kilometres to the aquatic centre, and 2.3-kilometres to the bustling town hub with amenities including shops, cafes, community bank, community hall, historic tavern, post office, railway station and more. The delightful village of Montville is an eight-minute drive up the range, and it's 20-25 minutes to coast beaches and airport.

Offered to the market for the first time in 37 years this is an opportunity to secure your very own verdant slice of one of the Sunshine Coast's most beloved hinterland towns; and a chance to revitalise a property that has a given so much in the past and still has so much more to offer moving forward.

* Charming post-war home ripe for renovation on 4401m2

* Flat, fully fenced block backing directly onto Paynter Creek

* Possibility of purchasing/renting adjoining vacant block (stca)

* 3 bedrooms, separate living areas, original bathroom & kitchen
