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

Why this property?

  • FactLast recorded sale $1,430,000 (9 May 2025).(Recorded sale)
  • FactLand 874 m²; no building size recorded.(Property record)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Caves Beach (last 5 years) with land size: median $2,226/m² of land (n=109). 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

NSW

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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $766/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. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. 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. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

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

    NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.

  • 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

    NSW Valuer General land values are not loaded for this property yet.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.

A Mind Blowingly Beautiful Home, Inside & Out, a Welcome Breakaway From Traditional Project Homes, Stunningly Renovated & Backing on to a Sea of Green

Escape the city, and instead enjoy a wonderful coastal lifestyle in a beautiful, quiet setting, backing on to the bush, located away from busy roads, towards the end of an almost cul-de-sac like street.

Boasting the very best of single level living, in a delightful estate where retirees, families and everyone in between, simply love living here between the bush and the sea. A beautiful community of house-proud owners, each home compliments the next, and owners are there for each other, but only when you need them.

A fabulously safe location to retire, or raise a family, this home has an emphasis on free flowing indoor and outdoor living, with minimal lawns to maintain, but enough yard for puppies and kids to explore and play.

Read the full description

Kids can safely catch up with all their friends without crossing any busy roads, when they want to kick the ball around, and have a full-blown game of football or cricket and nans and pops can practice their golf swing and catch up with other residents out and about for a morning or evening stroll.

Children can safely walk to school, with the local primary and high school just behind this lovely estate, with a footpath linking the estate to the school lane access, so you never have to sit in the traffic jam for school pick up or drop off!

You can walk your little ones to preschool, long day care, and vacation care, down the short cut pathway, same applies to catching the bus and getting to the beach, cafes and shops.

Cut straight through to the back of the shops and cafe scene, via the school lane, park and walkway through Tasman Court, and before you know it you're sipping on an iced latte or checking out the surf on your way to the beach!

These owners hunted for the perfect design before building this amazing one owner home.

They were looking for a relaxed free flowing floorplan that beautifully connected indoor living with outdoor living, wanting that wow factor feel, and they nailed it, building this amazing home with a true X Factor quality, after seeing a number of project homes they just didnt't feel would suit their lifestyle or fulfil their dream home look and feel.

From the architectural feel of stunning angled ceilings in the main lounge room, through to the light filled entry, to the amazing master suite retreat, well separated away from the other generous bedrooms and tastefully renovated bathroom wing.

Featuring great size, the master suite boasts a super creative, very spacious ensuite design for its time, the walk through ensuite flowing to a well lit walk in robe, with a separate private and practical shower and toilet, for great aesthetics too.

Perhaps one of the most unique floor-plans in the estate, all of the living opens out on to what can only be described as spectacular outdoor living and entertainment area with an opening and closing roof that simply steals the show.

It's not just the open style family lounge and dining room and newly renovated kitchen that enjoys the ever popular wonderfully classic French doors connection to outdoors, but also the spacous main lounge room with its beautifully pitched ceiling lines.

Capturing the perfect blend of outdoor and indoor, all on one level living, coupled with natural light and a serene bushland backdrop.

From the front door you will be drawn to the outdoor alfresco via the classy french doors, with the leafy green surrounds making you feel like you are in a retreat style nature reserve, all the while knowing you're easy walking distance to the beach.

The louvre roof adds a touch of sophistication and allows you to control the sun, shade and weather, while relaxing with that cuppa or enjoying a summer afternoon BBQ with family and friends.

Beautiful timber flooring walks you through the home, with delightful high ceilings and interesting lines drawing your eyes as you travel through.

The current owners had their family grow up in this home and they loved that the two separate living areas meant that the kids could be watching their shows in one room and the footy fans could enjoy the game in the other.

The superbly renovated stunning kitchen has been designed to make sure the cook of the home is always part of the conversation, whether the family are in the dining room, or there are guests inside or out.

The stone bench tops feature, wrap around both sides, so there is more than enough room for multiple people in the kitchen at one time.

The bedrooms have been spread between each side of the home and all are big enough to enjoy double or queen sized beds and still have enough room for bedside tables and desks for the kids.

The Master suite is a retreat with leafy outlooks that you will never want to leave. Walk through the private ensuite to the massive his and hers fitted out walk in robe, while enjoying a study or nursery right next door.

Set on the high side of the street with no rear neighbours, the extra privacy will have you feeling like you are a million miles from the hustle and bustle, when in reality, everything is just moments away!
