Bushfire overlay | 1978 build | 1615mΒ² land | low rental yield
The bushfire overlay introduces specific construction and insurance cost premiums that a buyer must underwrite from day oneβexpect higher strata or building insurance and potential limitations on future renovations. The 1978 brick construction and 164mΒ² floorplan offer solid bones, but the 10% ground coverage and raked ceilings suggest expansion potential is constrained by council and bushfire regulations. This is a low-yield holding property best suited to an owner-occupier seeking long-term land value over cash flow.
The quarter-acre block with 1970s character, open fireplace, and reliable NBN is a rare combination within Aldgate Primary and Heathfield High catchment zones. For a family prioritising school access, leafy outlook, and permanent residence over renovation profit, this property offers a defensible entry point into the Adelaide Hills market. To secure your position, engage a building inspector with bushfire overlay experience and confirm councilβs current policy on secondary dwellings.
