Given the $2,200,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $2,200,000(Listing record · 3 June 2026)
  • CalculationLand 10,117 m² against a 336 m² dwelling — the land is most of what is being bought.(Districts calculation)
  • CalculationRecorded House sales in Tamborine Mountain (last 5 years) with land size: median $995/m² of land (n=76). Districts calculation from recorded sales — not a valuation.(Districts recorded sales)
  • CalculationAsk is 98% above the Tamborine Mountain median recorded sale ($1,110,000, n=55, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Tamborine Mountain's advertised median rent ($799/wk), implied gross yield would be 1.89% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

What could make it worth more?

  • InterpretationA large lot with a small dwelling means the value case rests on the land and what the zone allows on it, not the house.

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

QLD

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.” Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

Rental

Income, competition, and yield

What will it realistically rent for?

Confidence: low

No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $799/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. 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.

What does the yield actually look like?

Confidence: low

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 1.9%. 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

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

    Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.

  • 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

    Statutory land value is not available as free bulk data in this jurisdiction. Do not fake it with a suburb median.

  • Net yield / holding costs

    Unknown

    Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.

A Garden Estate on Tamborine Mountain

There are properties where the garden is simply the backdrop to the home - and then there are properties where the garden is very much part of the reason you want to live there.

Set in a peaceful, elevated pocket of Tamborine Mountain, this beautifully established property has been created and nurtured over many years. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, productive fruit trees and layers of established planting surround the home, creating a wonderfully private setting that feels a world away from everyday life.

At the heart of the grounds is a picturesque spring-fed pond, stocked with approximately 300 Silver Perch, adding another dimension to the garden and creating a beautiful focal point amongst the greenery.

Read the full description

There is space here to potter, plant, grow and create. For the keen gardener, the foundations are already firmly established; for someone simply wanting beautiful surroundings without starting from scratch, much of the hard work has already been done.

For those who would like a little help along the way, the property's current gardener knows the grounds intimately and would be very happy to continue working with the new owners if desired - offering the option of continuity and local knowledge while you make the garden your own.

And tucked amongst it all is a substantial five-bedroom home.

Warm, welcoming and beautifully maintained, the residence has been thoughtfully updated while retaining the relaxed character that suits Tamborine Mountain so well. Eucalyptus timber floors, plantation shutters, quality New Zealand wool carpet and two fireplaces give the home warmth and personality, while modern additions such as eight-zone ducted air conditioning, solar power and UV-filtered house water make everyday living wonderfully comfortable.

The central kitchen has also been updated with quality appliances and a handmade Australian tile splashback, creating a lovely heart to the home.

Multiple living areas allow everyone to find their own space, whether that's gathering around the fire on a cool mountain evening, enjoying the sunroom overlooking the greenery, entertaining friends or simply finding a quiet corner with a book and a garden view.

More Than Just a Beautiful Garden

• Five generous bedrooms including a private master suite with ensuite

• Three bathrooms - ideal for guests, extended family or multigenerational living

• Multiple indoor living and entertaining spaces

• Two fireplaces for those wonderful Tamborine Mountain winters

• Updated kitchen with handmade Australian tiles and quality appliances

• Eucalyptus timber flooring and premium New Zealand wool carpet

• Plantation shutters and electric blinds

• Eight-zone ducted air conditioning

• Solar power system

• UV-filtered house water

• Beautiful established gardens and expansive lawns

• Mature fruit trees providing seasonal produce

• Spring-fed pond stocked with approximately 300 Silver Perch

• Current gardener happy to continue by arrangement, if desired

• Separate garden workshop/shed

• Newly sealed driveway

• Solid, substantial construction

• Just minutes from the villages, cafés, restaurants, schools, galleries and National Parks of Tamborine Mountain

With the price now reduced to the owner will look at all offers over $2.2m, this represents an opportunity to secure a substantial home and an established mountain garden at a figure that would be extraordinarily difficult to replicate from the ground up today.

This isn't a property that needs years of waiting for trees to grow and gardens to establish. It's already here - mature, private and ready for its next custodian to simply move in and enjoy, call today to take your private tour or pop in to one of our open homes.
