6/96 Woods Street, Darwin City NT 0800

3-bed unit, Darwin City core | 2-car parking rare | 84-day market average | FTTP connected This unit occupies a narrow but defensible position in Darwin City’s three-bedroom apartment segment. The two dedicated car spaces-including carports-are genuinely uncommon for a strata unit at this price point and directly improve re-sale appeal against the 102 comparable units sold this year. The median rental estimate of $775 per week supports a gross yield near 7.3%, which is strong for a capital-city apartment and suits an investor seeking cash-flow rather than short-term capital gain. The property is best suited to a buyer prioritising parking and rental return over land content or renovation upside. The February 2023 sale at $650 is anomalous and should be treated as a data error, not a benchmark. The 198m² lot is small, and the unit’s age and configuration may limit value growth in a market where the median days on market sits at 84. There is no bushfire, flood, or heritage overlay, which reduces holding risk but also removes any scarcity premium. The buyer’s edge here is positional: hold for stable rental income, use the parking advantage to command a premium over competing listings, and exit when the Darwin City unit cycle tightens further. Do not overpay for a property that trades on utility, not uniqueness.
