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
WAWA full cadastre is not free for commercial use. Lot optionality cannot be computed from official geometry. Listed land size is 422 m² — that is not official geometry. 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 for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $575/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 for this property. 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.

Honest achievable rent

This lot's DA history

Listing material
Listed by Merrifield Real EstateBuilt in the 1930s, this impressive home has undergone tasteful renovation, cleverly marrying original character features and modern appointments to present as a well-rounded, versatile residence.
Set in a streetscape proudly displaying the architecture of this era, it revels in its setting of a desirable historic precinct just 300 metres from York Street and all the buzz and amenities of the CBD.
Not only that, lovely views to Mt Melville, Princess Royal Harbour and out to Torndirrup National Park enhance the livability and entertaining value.
The home occupies an elevated section of its 422sqm block with a garage and steps leading up to the main entrance and delightful paved front terrace.
Inside, it displays original jarrah flooring, high ceilings and timber windows and a layout that's classic for the era, with rooms radiating off a central hallway.
Impressive finishing and modern appointments create a comfortable, welcoming ambience. The home has been redecorated throughout and finished with classy white cabinetry in the kitchen, bathroom and laundry as well as attractive tiling and modern appliances.
A sunroom at the front takes in the view, and beyond that is the appealing lounge, with two windows and air conditioning.
The kitchen is next – a big room with space for a dining table – fitted with a stainless steel chef's stove and dishwasher.
At the end of the hall is a spacious open family room or games room, with access to the toilet and laundry, and the lovely bathroom, complete with a claw-foot bath.
Of the three bedrooms, the king-sized master has an open fireplace. At the front, this shares the view, while the other two are both good-sized doubles and one has a built-in robe.
The split-level back yard is mostly in lawn with space for planting veggies and fruit trees, and there's a garden shed in the corner for stowing the mower and tools.
A paved area in the shade of a little arbour would make an alternative to the front patio for quiet moments outdoors.
This charming property promises an inner-city lifestyle full of character with renowned watering holes, eateries, schools and shops a short walk away.
