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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,205,000 (4 Aug 2023).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 670 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Swansea (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,745/m² of land (n=128). 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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $602/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

Exciting opportunity to purchase exquisitely renovated single level home in gorgeous Swansea North, close to The Lake, sandy swimming beach & Channel!

This amazing home has had extensive renovations, with a to die for new designer kitchen and polished concrete floors, that will make you the envy of your friends.

The owner renovated with every intention of being here for years into the future, and if not for another unique off market waterfront reserve style property, you would not be getting this amazing opportunity.

In all honesty if she could pick up this home and take it with her she would!

Read the full description

Boasting a highly sought after Swansea North address, at the very quiet end of town, just a few homes off the shores of Lake Macquarie.

It's a dead flat, easy stroll to a sandy swimming beach at what used to be known as “Coon Island”, and the fabulous new boardwalk, that links back to the walkway and cycle way, along stunning Swansea Channel, and back to Swansea's cafes, shops and services strip.

Discover fabulous single level brick living, with a contemporary Lake House look.

The originally, much more exposed open North East facing yard has been completely enclosed, with gorgeous new, no maintenance, aluminum slat fencing for extreme privacy and security for kids and puppies alike.

The perfect North East aspect, means the yard is bathed in wonderful warm sunshine, all day long in winter, and cool seabreezes on warm summer afternoons and into the evening.

The yard wraps around, and steals the last of the afternoon winter sun too, with the back neighbour sparing you in summer!

There's driveway parking for 2 cars, plus extra space for a golf cart or the like, with internally accessed, auto entry double garaging as well.

Delivering 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms, one of which is an ensuite off the main bedroom, the property is very well presented and very much move in ready.

Especially suited to retirees and busy professionals, who don't have time to renovate or oversee architects, builders and other tradespeople, this is a welcome change from the usual Swansea special, that's often well located, but still needs stacks of work.

Instead here, get set to be seduced by a massive renovation at the rear of the property, not just a front of house and yard makeover.

All the original back living, kitchen and laundry have been opened-up to create very generous open plan living, off a very high end, breathtaking and big new designer kitchen.

Sleek, polished concrete floors, beautifully compliment the new kitchen, with its fabulous big island bench and delightful soft close drawers and clever appliance/coffee machine centre.

Boasting second living that's perfect for kids and grandkids, you can keep an eye on them from the main living and the kitchen, without having to listen to what they're watching, and everything they're saying.

Easily add an outdoor hot and cold shower, the kayakers, surfers, kids and puppies will love, with a brand new bottled gas hot water service delivering instant hot water for all!

The photos tell a lot of the story, but they don't tell you everything, for example there is so much solar here and lots of LED contemporary down-lighting, that you should be able to leave everything on and running, including the ducted air conditioning, without worrying about a scary high-power bill.

The grounds promise a plethora of fruit trees, so you will have your own mini orchard in the years to come.
