Given the $385,000–$415,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $385,000–$415,000(Listing record · 19 Jan 2026)
  • FactLand 700 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationAsk is 12% below the Maryborough median recorded sale ($437,500, n=180, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Maryborough's advertised median rent ($376/wk), implied gross yield would be 5.08% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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

VIC

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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $376/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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 5.1%. 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

    Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.

  • 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.

CHARACTER, POSITION & POTENTIAL IN CENTRAL MARYBOROUGH

Looking for your next renovation project with the opportunity to create something special?

Positioned on a prominent main road in the heart of Maryborough, this former corner milk bar with attached four-bedroom residence presents a rare opportunity for renovators, builders, investors and developers seeking a property with genuine upside.

Set on residentially zoned land and packed with original character, the property offers the foundations for a substantial restoration, renovation or redevelopment project (STCA). Opportunities to secure a property of this scale and position are becoming increasingly difficult to find within one of regional Victoria's most affordable and well-connected communities.

Read the full description

Conveniently located opposite Lake Victoria and nearby sporting facilities, the property is within walking distance of schools, the new Maryborough Hospital, shopping precincts, cafés, public transport and the town centre.

Inside, many original features remain, including Baltic pine floorboards, high ceilings, generous room proportions and the original milk bar shopfront complete with shelving and refrigeration units that reflect the property's history.

The residence offers four bedrooms, a large country-style kitchen with a wood stove and excellent storage, a formal dining room, bathroom facilities and multiple sheds and outbuildings positioned at the rear of the property.

Important Information

This property has been vacant for many years and is being offered with complete transparency regarding its condition.

The home requires extensive renovation and repair works, including but not limited to:

Restumping

Termite (white ant) repairs

Roof and guttering attention

Reconnection of power, water and gas services

Internal refurbishment throughout

General repairs associated with long-term vacancy

Buyers should anticipate additional work and conduct their own due diligence and inspections. The property may contain asbestos materials consistent with homes of this era.

Please note that power, water and gas are available to the property but are not currently connected, and no appliances are operational.

Why This Property Stands Out

Prime central Maryborough location

Excellent exposure on a main road

Residential zoning with future potential

Character features ready for restoration

Strong opportunity to add value

Walkable access to major amenities

Ideal for experienced renovators, builders and developers

For buyers with vision, determination and realistic expectations, this property represents an exciting opportunity to breathe new life into a well-positioned Maryborough landmark.
