Given the $1,395,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $1,395,000(Listing record · 24 Dec 2025)
  • CalculationLand 115,835 m² against a 367 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationAsk is 170% above the St Helens median recorded sale ($516,250, n=18, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at St Helens's advertised median rent ($409/wk), implied gross yield would be 1.52% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.

Stamp duty and transfer fees: Tasmania schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.

Capital growth

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 $409/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 1.5%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. 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.

Luxurious Privacy - Minutes From Town & Beaches

Luxurious privacy in a coveted location minutes from town and beaches.

A residence of rare presence, this is a private sanctuary where refinement meets absolute tranquillity.

As you arrive, each gentle turn of the driveway brings you further from the everyday to your private sanctuary via a fully sealed, beautifully constructed driveway that winds through the gums. By the time the home comes into view, the world feels pleasantly distant and all you hear is the soundtrack of birdsong and the deep quiet of 28 acres with no neighbours to see and none to hear. All of this, remarkably, sits only minutes from the lifestyle hubs of Binalong Bay and St Helens, and on the edge of Moulting Bay.

Read the full description

Inside, the sense of scale is immediate. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms and two generous living areas offer flexibility without compromise, while smart planning provides excellent storage throughout - a home designed to feel calm, functional and beautifully resolved. The words grand and luxe only begin to reflect the statement style of this home.

Contemporary finishes, modern décor, underfloor heating and considered detailing create a sophisticated atmosphere, anchored by a well appointed kitchen and butler's pantry that elevates everyday living and makes entertaining effortless. From the living areas, the home opens to decks and verandahs that invite you outdoors in every season - and the master suite enjoys its own connection to the verandah, creating an indulgent retreat with space, privacy and a strong sense of escape. The master suite itself is exceptionally proportioned, arguably one of the most substantial in the area.

And when you think this home cannot exceed your expectations any further you find yourself in the conservatory. Part statement, part sanctuary - the conservatory is a place for slow mornings, long lunches, winter warmth and evenings that stretch on.

Outside of the home you will be impressed by the attached shed and workshop. Measuring an impressive 16m x 9m and two storeys in height, this is a shed that cannot be ignored due to it's scale and capability!

Outside features continue the offering:

• A fully fenced house yard with electric opening gate

• A picturesque spring fed dam and abundant water storage

• Glimpses of the bay and Blue Tier with magnificent sunrises and sunsets

• Two separate sheds

• An orchard with 24 fruit and berry varieties
