Districts View
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.

Suburb median $712,250 from 20 recorded sales (last 12 months) — a Districts calculation, not a portal figure.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.
Stamp duty and transfer fees: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Based on the low end of the asking range, not a contract price.
Pre-filled with Badger Creek's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
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
VICPlanning 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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $550/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 4.5%. 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
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 Eview GroupThis charming hardiplank cottage offers all the nostalgia of its time, with sympathetic updates to make modern day life a little easier, reimagined with a contemporary feel.
Set back; off a quiet no through road on the absolute fringe of urban Melbourne, you feel immersed in nature, with its wandering garden paths and green outward views. The generously wide nature strip accentuates the peaceful location and also offers plenty of off-street parking. With lovely, polished floorboards and neutral finishes throughout, it is a blank canvas for the next owner.
Deceptively spacious, the front door opens into the lounge room, with plenty of space for couches and a spilt system to keep life comfortable year-round. The kitchen and generous dining area can easily be separated with sliding doors or keep open to enhance the open flow feel.
The updated kitchen has plenty of storage and benchtops and space for those who like to spend some time creating culinary satisfiers for the family. It is also positioned perfectly for entertaining and with the laundry adjacent perhaps a butler's pantry with Euro laundry may be in your future. Lots of lovely windows keep the spaces bright and light.
Polished floorboards flow through into the bedrooms. The Master is at the rear with built in robes, while the two remaining bedrooms are both good sizes. The bathroom is neat, neutral and with a lovely bath made for soaking Sunday afternoons away.
Outside, there are spaces for outdoor eating, and exploring. Tucked into the rambling rear garden is a sweet shed currently used as storage but could make a lovely work from home space or studio.
Lots of space under the house for a possible car port for a cherished possession and additional storage, new fencing to the east, loads of privacy- move in ready and utterly delightful.
Only five minutes' drive from Healesville Main Street and much closer to Badger Creek Primary School and Badger Weir and of course the Healesville Sanctuary.
Having a solid history of running as a BnB; the property shows solid annualised returns. Average gross annual income over the last 4 years shows a return in excess of $53,000 per annum. We are happy to provide greater detail on income and expenditure for those interested in running their own BnB
This home is sure to delight!
