Given the $795,000–$865,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $795,000–$865,000(Listing record · 27 Aug 2026)
  • FactLand 330 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Happy Valley (last 5 years) with land size: median $1,025/m² of land (n=161). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)
  • CalculationAsk is 8% below the Happy Valley median recorded sale ($865,250, n=12, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Happy Valley's advertised median rent ($637/wk), implied gross yield would be 4.17% — 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

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 $637/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 4.2%. 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. 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.

Listing material

Listed by Harris Real Estate Glenelg

Character living in a quiet enclave, just footsteps from the reservoir's idyllic edge…

Tucked into a quiet enclave just footsteps from the beautiful banks of Happy Valley Reservoir, this character villa reproduction sits behind a white picket fence, occupying an easy-care parcel without sacrificing room to move.

Inside, a considered three-bedroom footprint is headlined by a front-facing master featuring walk-in robe and ensuite, while the two remaining bedrooms enjoy a well-configured main bathroom of their own.

Open-plan living extends to the rear, anchored by a quality-equipped kitchen that looks out to a lovely bay window framing the gardens beyond.

Read the full description

From there, living and dining spill onto fully enclosable outdoor entertaining, centred on a pitched pergola made for slow weekends with a coffee in hand and the local bird life for company - all wrapped in low-maintenance landscaping that asks of nothing in return - especially your valuable spare time.

Beyond the fence line, Serpentine Reserve and O'Halloran Hill Tennis Club sit close by, laced together by winding local walking trails - the kind of setting that explains why this sought-after Happy Valley enclave is so tightly held.

Comfortable and charming as it stands, there's plenty of scope here to make it your own, over time. And one of few foothill's addresses that offer this much water on their doorstep…
