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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $963,000 (25 Sept 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 683 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Seaford (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,268/m² of land (n=137). 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

SA

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 $632/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.

Charming Coastal Family Retreat in Seaford

Best Offers By Monday 22nd September.

Joel Georgeson is proud to welcome you to 53 Helmsman Terrace, Seaford - where coastal living meets comfort, space, and exciting potential for the future. Tucked away in one of Seaford's most tightly held and desirable pockets, this delightful 1985-built home offers a rare opportunity to secure a generous slice of beachside paradise - just a two-minute walk to the shore.

Imagine morning swims, evening strolls along the sand, and the gentle ocean breeze as your everyday backdrop. With the beach practically on your doorstep and this charming, well-maintained property set on a generous allotment, the lifestyle on offer here is second to none.

Read the full description

Inside, the home offers a flexible floorplan ideal for growing families, blended households or those working from home. Multiple living areas, a study nook overlooking the garden, and three well-proportioned bedrooms (master with walk-in robe and ensuite) ensure room for everyone to live, work, and unwind in comfort.

The kitchen - complete with gas cooktop and dishwasher - is the heart of the home, while ducted heating and cooling, large windows, and natural light throughout add warmth and functionality.

Step outdoors and you'll find a huge undercover entertaining area and lush, established gardens filled with fruit trees, vegetables, and plenty of space to grow more. For the hobbyist, there's a shed with workshop and billiard room, plus a separate garden shed for extra storage.

But beyond the lifestyle, this home also offers incredible long-term potential. As Seaford continues to grow in popularity and demand for coastal property soars, large blocks like this - in such close proximity to the beach - are becoming increasingly rare. Whether you choose to enjoy the home as-is, renovate, extend, or explore redevelopment (STCC), this is a smart investment in both lifestyle and land value.

What We Love:

• Only a 2-minute walk to stunning Seaford Beach - the ultimate coastal lifestyle

• Generous allotment with potential for future development (STCC)

• Flexible floorplan with multiple living zones including rumpus and lounge with built-in cabinetry

• Dedicated study nook with tranquil garden views

• Master bedroom with walk-in robe and private ensuite

• Bedrooms 2 & 3 with built-in robes

• Classic kitchen with gas cooktop and dishwasher

• Ducted heating and cooling throughout

• Huge undercover entertaining area - perfect for year-round gatherings

• Beautiful, established gardens with fruit trees, vegetables, flowers including roses and dahlias, with space to expand

• Main bathroom with leafy garden outlook

• Large Solar system

• Large shed with workshop and billiard room

• Additional garden shed for storage

• Undercover parking for up to 3 cars, with space for 2 more on the driveway

• Zoned for Moana Primary and Seaford Secondary College

• Close proximity to doctors, local shops, chemist and public transport options

Whether you're seeking a forever home, a coastal weekender, or a future-proof investment, 53 Helmsman Terrace delivers on all fronts. With the beach just steps away, a flexible and spacious layout, and the landholding to dream big, this is your chance to secure one of Seaford's most exciting lifestyle opportunities.
