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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $800,000 (10 Nov 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 1,070 m² against a 192 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Riverside (last 5 years) with land size: median $803/m² of land (n=106). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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

TAS

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 for this property.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $546/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 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.

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 for this property.

  • 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

Listed by The Agency Northern Tasmania

Seriously Cool. Unapologetically 1963.

This mid-century marvel doesn't whisper vintage - it sings it. Construction began in 1955 and was a labour of love that showcases the very best of the era's architecture and enduring craftsmanship. It's a home that was well ahead of its time, with features today's designers only dream of recreating.

The first impression? Those curved brick walls - sculptural, striking, and instantly iconic. Step inside and you're wrapped in original timber veneer and wall panelling, the kind that glows with warmth and quality no longer found in modern builds.

And then there's the kitchen - a time capsule in the best possible way. Curved drawers, clever cabinetry, and more storage than you could ever fill. The lighting feels straight out of a design magazine from the future, and the abundance of power points proves this home was built by someone who thought ahead - and lived well.

Read the full description

The bedrooms are spacious, each thoughtfully designed with built-in storage, dressers, and lighting tucked under cabinetry - every detail considered, every convenience quietly in place.

The bathroom? It's vintage, original, and gloriously so. Whether you leave it untouched or reimagine it, it's a talking point - and a testament to the home's era.

The wool carpet is super retro, soft underfoot, and so beautifully preserved - a genuine testament to the care this home has received over the decades.

Constructed in solid double brick and concrete, this home was built to last. There's plumbing and power already in place downstairs for an additional bathroom and toilet - the perfect opportunity to expand your living options - along with a workshop and generous parking for everyone.

Set on a generous 1,170m² block, the property provides garaging for four cars, with both garages offering internal access via the stairs or lift. One connects directly from the main driveway, while the other - accessed from Cormiston Road - is ideal for a boat, caravan, or larger vehicle. The main garage is equipped with three-phase power and an abundance of outlets, ready for every tool, project, or creative pursuit. The backyard is fully and securely fenced, offering privacy, peace of mind, and a relaxed space for families, pets, and easy outdoor living.

And then there are the Tamar River views - spectacular by day and mesmerising by night, a shifting canvas of light and colour that reminds you why this location is so special.

Comfort comes effortlessly here, with two wood fires and two reverse-cycle air conditioners keeping every corner warm in winter and cool in summer - whatever the weather, you'll always feel at home.

And in a thoughtful nod to the future, the home also includes a lift - seamlessly integrated and ready to support easy living at every stage of life.

Every room carries that irresistible mid-century rhythm: practical, playful, and perfectly preserved. This is a home for those who want to live surrounded by light, warmth, and personality - a place where design, comfort, and nostalgia coexist effortlessly.

Because true design never dates, and homes like this? They don't come around twice.
