Districts View
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
ACTPlanning 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 $437/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.

Bathed in light with a terrific sense of space!
This inviting privately built three-bedroom tumbled brick home sits back behind deep lawns and a lovely Chinese Elm. A long veranda provides the perfect spot to just sit back and relax whilst enjoying the outlook that this delightful street offers. There is the addition of a large garage that has been lined, making it the perfect place for a studio, rumpus or teenager's retreat. It really is a great space.
The centre of the plan is given over to a series of inter-linking social spaces that provide a feeling of openness, with large windows that welcome light and frame the landscape. The living area is generous and tranquil connecting directly to the dining room. From here there is a nice orientation to the original kitchen and combined meals that opens onto the generous deck, perfect for family life and entertaining.
The master bedroom with beautiful bay window, captures light and long views across the front lawns. There is a wall of built-in-robes for seamless storage. In addition to the large master there are two bedrooms with built-in-robe and double-glazed windows, both capturing leafy garden views via big windows. A slender hallway connects the bathroom with relaxing bath, separate toilet and a large laundry that opens onto the garden.
From here it is a few steps to the garage, currently configured as a game's room/rumpus…the ideal hang out for the kids or adults. The yard provides plenty of space for kids' play equipment, spontaneous games of cricket or footy.
It is an easy meander to the Watson Woodlands, Mount Majura Nature Reserve, and the Simpson Street Playground, extending a surrounding of natural beauty. The home is also imbedded in all the delights of the thriving inner-north, handy to Epic Markets, the light rail, the local Watson shops and an easy direct commute to the CBD. The home is just a short drive from the Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD and also convenient to a mix of private and public schools.

Honest achievable rent
KnownlowThis is not “bond data says this address leases for $X.” The comparable figure is a suburb advertised/median rent, not this property. This jurisdiction has no comparable official bond series in the free set.
Rental supply pressure
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?
UnknownThe constraint stack has not been retrieved for this lot, so Districts cannot explain a discount versus land size.
Lot-level flood
UnknownOfficial flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”
Catalyst exposure
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownDevelopment applications have not been queried for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask
UnknownStatutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.
Net yield / holding costs
UnknownNet yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.
