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: New South Wales 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 Newcastle'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
NSWPlanning 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.” NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Rental
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. No recorded off-street parking — often a discount versus the suburb median for the same beds.
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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 5.7%. 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
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 Presence Real EstateGraciously presiding over the top end of town, this character-rich apartment invites you to live where Newcastle's nightlife, harbour and coastline gently meet. Set within a tightly-held enclave of just 25 boutique warehouse conversions, it claims its own corner of history in the heritage-listed c1880 Ireland's Bond – once a bustling store for flour, hay and corn, now beautifully reimagined by EJE Architecture as a collection of luxurious, design-led residences.
Step into the wide entry and immediately feel the generous scale of this apartment, with its tall ceilings and expansive rooms offering ample space for entertaining and relaxed everyday living. Your eye is first drawn to the sleek contemporary kitchen – compact, yet impressively well appointed. Featuring stone benchtops, a quality De'Longhi oven and dishwasher, and a generous pantry, it's just as well suited to throwing together a quick midweek meal as it is to prepare a veritable feast for friends.
From here, the home opens into a bright, open-plan living and dining space, where five of the eight oversized double-glazed windows lend a distinctly New York feel. Yet, the north-westerly outlook is unmistakably Newcastle, with everchanging glimpses of the working harbour and historic urban streetscape that bring the city's character right into the room.
A double sliding door flows from the living area into an equally generous bedroom, enhancing the sense of space and connection. With the doors open, your bedroom becomes part of a larger, loft-like sanctuary where you can move effortlessly between lounging, working and unwinding. Close them, and you're cocooned in a bright sunlit retreat at the end of the day.
The two-way bathroom is designed for both ease and indulgence. Beautifully appointed, it features a walk-in shower with a striking feature stone tile, along with generous mirrored storage to keep everyday essentials neatly out of sight. Nearby, the cleverly integrated Euro laundry makes light work of household chores, preserving the clean, streamlined feel of the apartment.
Adding to the appeal, the residents' rooftop area offers an inviting, intimate space with seating and a relaxed atmosphere. Facing north to capture consistent light and cooling coastal breezes, here you can take in the unique ever-changing views of the harbour and hills beyond, whether you want to stretch out in the sun for a quiet snooze or settle in with friends for a long, leisurely afternoon.
Beyond your front door, the lifestyle is every bit as appealing. Positioned just moments from the harbour and Newcastle's vibrant East End, you're perfectly placed to enjoy the very best of city living, with the beach always within easy reach. Imagine early morning walks along the waterfront, grabbing coffee from your favourite local cafe, then wandering home through historic streets with quaint shops and galleries. Evenings offer fine dining and relaxed wine and cocktail bars. It's only a quick dash to the Metro or Artisanal Cellars in the East End Hub for last-minute provisions, and you can quickly hop on the bus or light rail for a straightforward commute or an easy weekend getaway.
Claim your place in this beautifully reimagined piece of Newcastle history and experience the rare harmony of harbourside, city and coastal living. Inspect today.
