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

Why this property?

  • FactLand 1,126 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Balhannah (last 5 years) with land size: median $837/m² of land (n=42). 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

SA

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 $608/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.

Listing material

Listed by Harris Real Estate Kent Town

Sunningdale; when a sweet story meets a fruitful future on a prized corner block in beautiful Balhannah.

Enchanting surrounds and a striking sandstone facade make it love at first glance. Delve deeper and you'll uncover a story worth telling on a prized corner 1126sqm (approx.) block in beautiful Balhannah.

Welcome to 'Sunningdale'; the original orchard house and prized piece of history, preserved like a sweet jam and upgraded for a fruitful future.

Hidden behind a towering conifer hedge to conjure what feels like complete privacy is a 3-bedroom home that hosted the local fruit pickers in the 1920s and 30s - their haven after long days in the field.

Read the full description

Today, its repointed facade, re-polished Baltic pine and Jarrah floors, colourful leadlight, lofty decorative ceilings, and big rooms make it the textbook character home, just 30-minutes from the CBD.

Look closer at the decorative cornices; mouldings of fruit and flowers give a nostalgic wink to its humble beginnings.

Textbook character. Yet like nothing else.

Meanwhile, a 900mm freestanding oven, granite benchtops, wood-fired pizza oven, LED lighting and upgraded bathrooms - including one with a window to the clouds - top a long list of upgrades.

Future. Proofed.

With a mix of formal and casual spaces - including a formal lounge with regal timber panelling, large office/4th bedroom and an open-plan kitchen - the floorplan is timeless, too.

Only a subtle divide separates that head-turning kitchen (with walk-in pantry, no less) from an expansive dining room - the gateway to an extensively refurbished retreat.

With its own bathroom and external access, is the retreat home to your snooker table or your independence-craving teen?

Take your pick.

And there's so much more to this story...

- Close to the many amenities in Balhannah and Oakbank

- Just moments from Oakbank Area School

- Prized side street access to 2-car carport

- Beautifully presented gardens with European deciduous plantings, new concrete paths and stone walls, and automatic watering system

- hardwood deck/patio to rear yard - perfect for pizza night

- European-style panel heating, efficient split r/c and combustion fire

- Underfloor heating to both bathrooms

- Workshop to large lock-up garage

- Super fast NBN connection and completely re-wired throughout

- Chicken run to rear yard

- Filtered water and best-in-class solar heat-pump hot water

- Double glazed 'tilt & turn' windows to retreat

- And so much more.
