Given the $749,000–$789,000 ask, is this worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale, asking $749,000–$789,000(Listing record · 29 July 2026)
  • CalculationAsk is 29% below the Penrith median recorded sale ($1,060,000, n=15, last 12 months).(Districts calculation from recorded sales)
  • CalculationIf it leased at Penrith's advertised median rent ($585/wk), implied gross yield would be 4.06% — this is not a rent for this listing.(Districts scenario calculation)

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.

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.

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 $585/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

Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 4.1%. 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. 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.

Listing material

LARGE RENOVATED UNIT IN SUPERB LOCATION + DOUBLE GARAGE

Built in the late 1990s during a golden era of construction, this exceptional first floor apartment enjoys large proportions and build quality that has passed the test of time. Stylish and impressive renovations capitalise on the generous proportions, with a luxuriously large ensuite and main bathroom. The full-sized kitchen showcases stone benchtops, subway-tile splash-back and abundant storage including a pantry. Herringbone laid timber-pattern ceramic tiles throughout complete the modern look and feel. All the big-ticket items have been done delivering a superior offering to many of the new builds due to size, location, renovations and rock solid engineering and construction. Features include:

- Total area 150m2 (unit 120m2 inc. Balcony + 30m2 garage)

- 3 bedrooms, each with picture windows, built-ins & ceiling fans

Read the full description

- BIG Master bedroom with luxuriously sized renovated ensuite

- Spacious open floorplan with ample lounge and dining areas

- Sunny oversized balcony facing N/W is a great outdoor space

- Living area opens to a covered balcony - great for entertaining

- Luxuriously appointed bathrooms; both completely renovated

- Renovated kitchen with stone benches & abundance of storage

- Full sized laundry (+ space for storage) & large storeroom/linen

- Secure complex; push button camera + voice intercom access

- Modern and efficient reverse-cycle split system air-conditioning

- Ideal N/W aspect enjoys natural light and year 'round comfort

- Double LUG with traditional side-by-side parking - not tandem!

Offering significantly more space than most apartments (120m2 unit area + 30m2 parking = Total 150m2), this unit will continue to be increasingly desirable over time. Where else can you find an apartment so comfortably accommodating a TEN seat dining table with room for cabinets and a lounge occupying two day-beds with loads of room to spare. Check the floorplan - space like this is hard to find.

A terrific lifestyle is also a huge part of the offering, being at the Western end of Penrith CBD and just a short 300m stroll to Westfield Penrith and on to Penrith Station located only 900m away. Surrounded by every essential shopping, dining and entertainment option and being so close to the Great River Walk, the Log Cabin Hotel and riverside dining precincts on each side of the Nepean River, this is undoubtedly one of the best apartment offerings currently available.

There are only 18 units within this well maintained and well-managed strata plan with no known major works required. We have the minutes from the last AGM (Dec '25) and we welcome any inspection by builders or engineers for those needing certainty.

Everything about this apartment speaks to quality and it delivers all of the features that astute buyers have on their wish lists; a protected aspect that won't get built out (because there are two storey units on the adjoining lot already), large proportions, enduring/proven build quality, first floor position with minimal steps (9); large balcony, recently renovated, security complex, secure side-by-side double garage, the list goes on! You simply will not find as much floor area or as many features in newer apartments unless you're spending well over $1m.

The contract of sale, FAQ sheet, AGM minutes and the offer to purchase form (with clearly defined process) is available to safely download from the Stanton & Taylor Real Estate Website (black folder icons). You can also obtain these by sending an email enquiry by clicking on the 'get in touch' (desktop) or 'enquire' (mobile) button on realestate.com.au, and you will receive an autoresponder with links taking you to these resources.
