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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $940,000 (8 May 2026).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 1,363 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in East Maitland (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,308/m² of land (n=138). 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 $566/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.

Mid-Century Home on 1,363sqm - Space, Charm & Endless Possibilities in East Maitland

Positioned on a substantial 1,363sqm parcel in one of East Maitland's most established streets, this solid 1955 brick and tile home presents a rare opportunity to secure space, character and future potential at a newly adjusted and highly competitive price point.

• Large 1,363sqm block in tightly held East Maitland

• Solid brick residence with exceptional foundations and scope to further enhance

Read the full description

• Four bedrooms - flexible layout ideal for families

• In-ground pool & expansive established yard with strong development potential STCA

Full of mid-century charm, the home offers four well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in robes, a spacious formal lounge filled with natural light, and a separate dining area overlooking the pool and gardens. High ceilings enhance the sense of space, while natural gas and air conditioning provide year-round comfort. The adaptable floorplan allows the home to evolve easily with its next owner.

The kitchen and bathrooms remain largely original - neat and functional - providing an ideal blank canvas for buyers looking to renovate and add significant value. Those who appreciate mid-century homes will immediately recognise the opportunity to enhance and modernise while retaining its character.

Outdoors, a 9m x 5m in-ground swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the backyard entertaining area. The surrounding gardens include mature plantings, flowering shrubs, succulents and established edibles such as banana, mango and curry tree. While currently somewhat overgrown, they provide a strong foundation ready to be revitalised.

The property also includes a former double garage converted into a music studio, an enclosed area beneath the home providing additional storage, a rear veranda, and a carport. These improvements were undertaken without formal council approval and form part of the property being sold in its current condition.

The current price positioning reflects the opportunity presented, the scale of the landholding, and the scope for future enhancement.

The current owner, an artist, has filled the home with extensive artwork. A simple cosmetic refresh will further enhance the home's already solid foundations. Please note the photos have had personal belongings removed for marketing purposes only, with no alterations to the property itself.

• Solar approx. 8.5kW

• Rates approx. $749 pq

• Water approx. $270 pq

• Rental estimate: $700-$750 per week

This is a standout opportunity to secure a substantial landholding in a tightly held East Maitland location, with genuine scope to add value to a classic mid-century home.
