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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 2,807 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Karana Downs (last 5 years) with land size: median $624/m² of land (n=146). 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

QLD

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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $668/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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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.

Riverfront Entertainer!

The Brisbane River views will be a significant part of the attraction for this property as the panorama from here is simply magnificent! It's set on more than half an acre with a gentle slope that passes by towering gum trees to reach the water's edge. The outlook encompasses parkland on the opposite side of the river while its position on a cul de sac ensures that traffic noise is kept to a minimum.

Lots of character, light filled spaces and multiple entertaining areas are on offer here. One side of the home features a full length elevated timber deck to take advantage of the brilliant river vista. The steel framing of the deck supports a huge covered dining area and a welcoming bar which will be hard to go past. The opposite side of the property hosts a saltwater pool with tropical gardens and an all-weather entertaining area. The large, insulated, roof of the pool pavilion covers another generous alfresco entertaining area that includes an outdoor kitchen with drinks fridge, built in barbecue and a television ready for the upcoming cricket season.

Timber floors dominate most of the interior. The generous living room features a fireplace, air conditioning and an impressive vaulted ceiling. The nearby family room offers another entertaining option (or teenage retreat) with a powder room for guests. The kitchen is open plan to the living room, indoor dining as well as the river deck. The flow to the rear deck is unimpeded thanks to large sliding doors on two walls. The home chef will appreciate the Caesar Stone benches, gas cooktop and a 900cm electric oven. The fridge is plumbed in, there's a dishwasher and a massive walk-in pantry in addition to a sizable breakfast bar.

Read the full description

The Master Bed Suite opens directly to the river deck to also take advantage of the amazing views. You'll love its raked ceiling, huge walk-in robe, renovated ensuite with double shower, separate toilet and additional storage options. The other three bedrooms share a bathroom which includes a Caesar Stone vanity, bath, shower and separate toilet.

A double garage and adjacent carport offers plenty of off-street parking. The garage is remote opening and features a work bench, store room and internal entry to the home. On the lower level (between the home and the river) is a garden shed, a Cubby House inspired by an old style bushman's hut, a viewing platform and landscaped gardens. The internet connection is currently Fibre To The Node (FTTN) however this technology will soon be upgraded to the much faster Fibre To The Premises (FTTP). It should be noted that this home has never been flooded.

It's less than 250 metres to the Illawong Reserve Sports Ground, the Mount Crosby State School is around a kilometre away, the local shopping centre a two minute drive whilst the popular Brisbane River Golf Club is also less than 5 minutes away. School buses to a number of High Schools and Colleges pass the end of the street. Karana Downs is a mere 35 minutes from Brisbane's CBD and less than 15 minutes to Ipswich's CBD. Please note that the home is well above previous river heights and has never flooded. If you need more information please feel free to contact Ian Keenan at any time.
