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.

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
QLDPlanning 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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $636/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. 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.
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
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.

Listing material
Listed by Gardian Real EstateThis large property has a huge parents' retreat that could also be utilised as teenagers' space or separated from the rest of the house to become a self-contained unit or a place to work from home.
Located on an 809sq m block in one of West Mackay's best streets, the property also has a 12-metre-long shed with terrific side access along a concrete driveway, a high-clearance carport and a pool.
But you also get the unexpected space of a two-level home that provides four bedrooms, three living areas, two bathrooms and a main kitchen plus a kitchenette in the upstairs retreat.
If you have a big family, work from home or if you want separate accommodation for visitors, this property could be perfect.
The upstairs suite has its own bathroom, kitchenette and living space and is currently used as a parents' master suite.
But it has access to a separate entry and it can be closed off from the downstairs area, which would allow you to work separately from the rest of the house or rent it out to help pay the mortgage.
The property's prime West Mackay location provides easy access to Parkside shopping centre, the hospital, schools including Catherine McAuley College, Paget, the CBD, the airport and the beautiful Botanic Gardens.
The DOWNSTAIRS area of the house has timber floorboards and includes:
- Three generous bedrooms, all with fans and two with split-system air-conditioning
- Huge main living area with split-system air-conditioner
- Separate open-plan family room that includes a large dining space
- Central kitchen with breakfast bar and dishwasher
- Renovated bathroom and laundry
The UPSTAIRS area includes:
- Air-conditioned master suite with massive walk-in wardrobe and renovated ensuite
- Open-plan area that allows the bedroom to have its own sitting/TV area
- Kitchenette for simple meal preparation
The OUTSIDE areas include:
- Extra-deep single-bay shed with excellent side access along a concrete driveway. The shed is about 12-metres deep and would easily accommodate two cars or a boat and a car parked front-to-back
- Sparkling in-ground pool with covered entertainment area
- Deep carport that is enclosed and has a roller door. It can also accommodate two vehicles parked front-to-back
The location of this property allows you to make the most of the convenient West Mackay lifestyle.
You can take the dog for a walk to the beautiful Botanic Gardens. You're a short drive to Paget, Parkside shopping centre, pubs, clubs, sports grounds, the airport and the CBD. And, if you work at the hospital, it will take you just a few minutes to drive there.
Of course, primary school options include West Mackay State School and St Francis Xavier, while older kids have choices of Milton St high school and Catherine McAuley College.
This property offers options you don't normally find in a West Mackay house. If you want a large home with multiple living spaces and a shed and a pool in a great location, give David Fisher a call to arrange an inspection.
