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
TASPlanning 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.
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 $594/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
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 Ripple RealtyBuilt circa 1930, with a rear extension added in 1980, the unique home has retained some lovely original features while adding modern updates that will make life more comfortable - a cosy pellet fire in the living room, reverse cycle air conditioning, a 7kw solar panel system, and NBN fibre to the premises installed.
The light and inviting open plan living area serves as a functional and stylish communal space for the whole family. Overlooking the lush rear yard, the lounge is a wonderful place to unwind; there is plenty of room for dining; and the spacious kitchen has quality appliances, a timber-topped island bench, and plenty of storage.
All four bedrooms are versatile and very generously sized, and the master has a charming feature fireplace, walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. There's also a sleek family bathroom with a separate bath and shower, vanity, and toilet. Underneath the house, you'll find a workshop and ample storage space.
Both two outdoor living spaces are ideal for entertaining with friends, summer dining, or relaxed family time. The shady and sheltered undercover area has easy access to the kitchen and is a great spot for a BBQ, and the open deck at the top of the block is a superior vantage point for views of the Derwent River and spectacular coastline.
Kids and pets will love to play in the neat and fully fenced yard, and the large 1,132sqm block is filled with low maintenance gardens. The productive veggie patch also has a number of fruit trees - pear, plum, apples, feijoa and lemon are all growing here.
Located only a few minutes away from the many services in Kingston and a 15-minute drive from Hobart's CBD, you will also be central to the thriving local community. Regular buses travel along Roslyn Ave and there are primary schools, childcare facilities, and a small shopping centre all nearby. A fantastic swimming spot, Blackmans Bay Beach is just a short stroll from home, also with a playground, skate park and bustling cafés.
