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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $690,000 (3 Sept 2012).(Recorded sale)
  • CalculationLand 40,910 m² against a 307 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Sandford (last 5 years) with land size: median $49/m² of land (n=42). 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 $544/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 Petrusma Property Sandy Bay

SOLD by Scott Crawford

As you approach the property situated on a private internal bushland retreat of some 4.091ha you are greeted with a magnificent first look from the gateway of this imposing, but so impressive, natural Bluestone residence. The driveway winds around the front of the home past a fenced area dedicated to some vegetables and fruit trees together with flowers and lawns, to the rear of the home and a double carport with easy level access via numerous entry points. A large entertainment deck adjoins the residence and is the ideal place to sit back, relax and take in the absolutely sensational 180 degree water and mountain views from Storm Bay to Mt Dromedry that can also be enjoyed from numerous vantage points internally, including two additional sundecks. The home is so constructed as to maximise the benefits of all day sun and has a massive rain water catchment and holding capacity of around 75,000 litres plus its own water hole. The home itself is of generous proportions and covers three levels creating great separate living spaces for family members. The large lounge dining room features cathedral ceilings and is made warm and cosy with the large wood heater. The kitchen is well appointed and spacious with a meals area and either an additional sitting room or study. A stairway leads you to the upper level with a family room and two bedrooms, a fantastic children's retreat. Downstairs is the expansive rumpus room, a neat alcove for a wine cellar, another bedroom and the master bedroom that includes ensuite and built in robes plus a separate adjoining room that is the home office, offering total privacy. Visitors are easily accommodated in the external lofted studio room which is accessed via a stairway beside the carport. A short stroll up the well-kept and maintained driveway is a great workshop garage (22m x 8m power, phone & water) with ample space for the tradesman or just utilise for undercover secure parking for boats and caravans. The property also has a bird aviary and a chicken enclosure. All this and your still only 30 minutes to Hobart, the Airport or the surf and fishing beaches are even closer. This expansive and unique Bluestone home is something quite special and well worthy of inspection when it will capture your attention as you absorb the peace, privacy and stunning vista. Phone Scott Crawford today and arrange your private viewing.
