This is on the market — is it worth your time?

Why this ask?

  • FactListed for sale — no asking price recorded(Listing record · 28 Aug 2026)

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.

Planning data is being calculated

Development activity

Data unavailable

Source

  • Provider: unavailable
  • Dataset: unavailable
  • Retrieved: not yet retrieved
  • Version: planning-v1

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

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, bushfire and heritage

Flood

Not retrieved

Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.

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 $850/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

Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. 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.

Spacious Resort-Style Living with Spectacular Garden & District Views

Welcome to the market 404/3 Black Lion Place Kensington

Set within the prestigious and beautifully maintained Raleigh Park Estate, this exceptionally spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment delivers an enviable combination of generous proportions, fabulous entertaining spaces, leafy outlooks and resort-style living in one of Kensington's most sought-after locations.

From the moment you enter, the sense of space is immediately apparent. The over-sized living and dining area provides an abundance of room to relax, entertain and enjoy the beautiful garden aspect, while the apartment's multiple balconies allow you to embrace the outdoors from several different vantage points.

Read the full description

The largest of the three balconies flows directly from the expansive living area, creating an exceptional setting for entertaining family and friends, enjoying an afternoon drink or simply taking in the peaceful gardens and impressive surrounding views. A second balcony extends from the kitchen, providing a wonderful connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces, while the master bedroom enjoys its own private balcony, adding another layer of privacy and appeal.

Both bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the master bedroom offering a particularly desirable retreat complemented by its own balcony and ensuite. With two well-appointed bathrooms, the home is equally suited to couples, families, downsizers or astute investors seeking a substantial apartment in a tightly held Kensington setting.

A Rare Lock-Up Garage

A particularly valuable feature is the secure lock-up garage - a rare and highly sought-after inclusion for an apartment of this calibre and location. Combined with the generous internal proportions and multiple outdoor spaces, it adds an important level of practicality and convenience.

Resort-Style Facilities at Your Doorstep

Life here feels more like a private resort than an apartment complex. Residents enjoy access to beautifully maintained landscaped gardens, tennis courts and an outdoor swimming pool, creating a peaceful and private environment to unwind, exercise and entertain without leaving home.

The manicured grounds and leafy surroundings are a defining feature of the estate, providing a tranquil contrast to the convenience of its central Eastern Suburbs position. Raleigh Park Estate is set across extensive landscaped grounds and is renowned for its resort-style facilities.

Connected Kensington Lifestyle

Positioned in Kensington NSW, Black Lion Place places you close to an outstanding selection of shopping, recreation, education and transport options.

The nearby Supa Centa Moore Park provides an extensive range of shopping, dining and everyday conveniences, while East Village is also within easy reach.

For lovers of the outdoors, an impressive selection of parks and recreational spaces is close by, including:

Raleigh Park

Kensington Park

Fitzpatrick Park

Kokoda Memorial Park

Wills Reserve

Tay Street Reserve

Basin Reserve

Centennial Park

Education options are also conveniently located nearby, including Kensington Public School, Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Primary School and Our Lady of The Sacred Heart College. Kensington Public School is approximately 1km from Black Lion Place and is identified as the local public primary school catchment for the property; school catchments should always be independently confirmed before making enrolment decisions.

With UNSW, Centennial Parklands, Randwick Racecourse, the CBD and the Eastern Suburbs coastline all readily accessible, the location offers an exceptional balance of lifestyle and convenience.

An Exceptional Opportunity

Large two-bedroom apartments with this level of outdoor space, garden outlook, resort-style facilities and secure parking are increasingly difficult to find.

Offering an over-sized living area, three balconies, spectacular leafy and district views, two bathrooms, a private master bedroom balcony and the rare advantage of a secure lock-up garage, this is a home that delivers space, lifestyle and versatility in equal measure.

A truly fabulous Kensington apartment offering an enviable resort-style lifestyle, exceptional entertaining spaces and an abundance of space rarely found in apartment living.
