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.

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: Australian Capital Territory schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Duffy'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
ACTPlanning 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 for this property.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $445/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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 2.2%. 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 LJ Hooker Woden and WestonTucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac and lovingly cared for by the same family for many years, this warm and welcoming home offers something becoming increasingly difficult to find - space, character and an extraordinary connection to nature. Originally constructed circa 1970 and thoughtfully extended to create a far more generous footprint than many of the original homes in the area, 9 Paloona Place is set on an exceptionally rare 1,435m² parcel of land, almost double the size of a typical block in the area, where generations have gathered, children have explored, and gardens have flourished.
Surrounded by beautifully established native gardens that provide a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion, the home makes an inviting first impression, with abundant off-street parking and a charming entrance framed by greenery. Inside, natural light fills the spacious formal living room, where every window captures peaceful garden outlooks. A feature fireplace, timber-panelled walls and warm character details create an inviting space to relax, while a walk-in pantry with wet bar is cleverly positioned adjacent to the kitchen, offering exceptional versatility as additional storage, a coffee station or bar.
Flowing effortlessly through the home, the generous open-plan kitchen, dining and family room has been designed for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen enjoys an open outlook across the living spaces, allowing the cook to remain part of every conversation, while electric cooking, a dishwasher and ample bench space cater to busy family life. Exposed timber beams, feature timber panelling and cosy underfloor heating create warmth and character, with the adjoining sunroom extending the living space even further. Beautiful timber-framed glass doors and windows invite the outdoors in, while the desirable north-easterly aspect fills the space with winter sunshine. Adding further convenience, a second full bathroom with spa bath is positioned off the sunroom, perfectly servicing guests during outdoor entertaining or days spent enjoying the expansive backyard.
Accommodation includes three generously proportioned bedrooms, each designed with comfort in mind. Bedroom one enjoys double wardrobes and direct outdoor access, while bedroom three includes a built-in study desk, ideal for children, students or those working from home. A centrally located family bathroom services the bedrooms with ease.
Stepping outside reveals the true heart of this remarkable property. Meandering pathways weave through a magical landscape of established native gardens, shaded garden arches, open lawns and peaceful entertaining spaces. The mature gardens not only create a picturesque setting but also provide exceptional privacy, giving the home a tranquil, almost hidden-away feel. Despite its impressive scale, the gardens have been thoughtfully designed to remain surprisingly easy to maintain, while attracting an abundance of native birdlife and wildlife. Whether enjoying family gatherings around the fire pit, watching children explore the grounds, tending the gardens or simply relaxing beneath the trees, this is a backyard that invites a slower pace of life.
Adding exceptional flexibility, the attached garage has been thoughtfully converted into a versatile studio complete with its own entrance and wet bar, making it ideal as a home office, creative studio or gym. An oversized freestanding metal garage behind secure gates provides excellent additional storage, workshop space or secure parking.
Positioned within one of Weston Creek's most family-friendly suburbs, the home is only moments from Duffy Primary School, neighbourhood parks and oval, local shopping, while Cooleman Court offers an excellent selection of supermarkets, cafés, restaurants and everyday conveniences. Nature lovers will appreciate the close proximity to Mount Stromlo's renowned walking and cycling trails, providing an exceptional lifestyle both inside and out.
