Districts View
No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

Suburb median $1,310,000 from 28 recorded sales (last 12 months) — a Districts calculation, not a portal figure.

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: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Based on the low end of the asking range, not a contract price.
Pre-filled with Blackburn South's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
Planning
Planning data is being calculated
Data unavailable
Source
Planning facts are copied from official government GIS where available. Where an official property PDF exists (VicPlan, PlanBuild), Districts stores and serves that original document. Neither is a planning certificate, survey, or advice.
Site
Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.
Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.
Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
VICPlanning 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.
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
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $587/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
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.
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
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
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.

Offering exceptional space, flexibility and lifestyle appeal, this substantial five-bedroom residence presents an outstanding opportunity for large, growing or multigenerational families seeking room to live, work and entertain.
Already generously proportioned, the home also provides the potential to create two additional bedrooms, allowing the property to be adapted into an impressive seven-bedroom residence, subject to any necessary approvals. This flexibility makes the home equally suitable for a large family, extended family living, guest accommodation, home offices, study areas or private spaces for teenagers.
With three bathrooms and three showers, the property has been designed to accommodate the demands of busy family life. Multiple family members can prepare for work, school or university without the usual morning congestion, while visiting relatives and overnight guests can enjoy greater privacy and convenience.
The interior combines comfort with quality finishes. Engineered timber flooring creates a warm and contemporary feel throughout the home, while double-glazed windows provide an additional level of comfort and help reduce outside noise.
At the heart of the residence is the spacious granite kitchen, offering a practical and attractive setting for everyday family meals and larger gatherings. A premium Belling cooktop adds further appeal for those who enjoy cooking and entertaining. With its durable granite surfaces and generous proportions, the kitchen is well suited to preparing everything from quick weekday meals to celebrations with family and friends.
The home has been created with entertaining in mind. The indoor living spaces connect with a substantial outdoor dining and entertaining area, providing plenty of room for relaxed family meals, weekend barbecues and larger social occasions.
A large covered pergola extends the usable living space outdoors, creating a protected area that can be enjoyed across the seasons. It is an ideal setting for long lunches, birthday celebrations, evening meals or simply relaxing while children play nearby.
Positioned at the rear of the property, the double garage provides secure accommodation for two vehicles. Its size and location also offer excellent versatility, with potential use as a workshop, hobby area, storage space, games room or additional entertainment zone. This added flexibility will appeal to buyers needing room for tools, equipment, projects or recreational activities.
One of the property's most impressive features is its prime parkside position. The home backs directly onto a park, giving the property a wonderful sense of openness and providing families with immediate access to outdoor recreation.
The adjoining park includes tennis courts, making it easy to enjoy a casual game, practise with the family or maintain an active lifestyle without needing to drive elsewhere. An oval is also located nearby, providing further opportunities for football, cricket, running, exercise and a wide variety of children's sporting activities.
For families with children, the location offers an exceptional extension of the backyard. Children can enjoy open green space, sport and outdoor play close to home, while parents benefit from having these recreational facilities immediately nearby. The park, tennis courts and oval also create an inviting environment for family walks, exercise and weekend activities.
The property is conveniently located close to schools, Deakin, Burwood 1 Shopping Centre and a broad selection of shops, services and everyday amenities. This central position places education, shopping, recreation and essential services within easy reach, while the parkside setting allows the home to retain a relaxed and family-friendly atmosphere.
Combining substantial accommodation, quality finishes, extensive entertaining spaces and an outstanding recreational setting, this is much more than a five-bedroom home. It is a flexible family property with the ability to evolve as its owners' needs change.
Whether accommodating a large family, establishing private work-from-home spaces, creating additional bedrooms or making the most of the outdoor entertaining and workshop areas, this residence offers a level of versatility that is increasingly difficult to find.
