1213/8 Kingsborough Way, Zetland NSW 2017

Level 12 two-bedder in The Reserve | Study adds rare flex space | 5.5% rental yield with high accuracy | Flood overlay flagged but not bushfire This property occupies a strong position in Zetland’s mid-tier market. The study is genuinely uncommon for a two-bedroom configuration, giving the buyer either a work-from-home advantage or a third room for storage, which lifts its appeal against comparable units in the building that lack it. The rental history shows consistent demand at $1,050–$1,200 per week, and the building’s tenure data,60% held 6–10 years,suggests low turnover and stable ownership, which usually means fewer distressed sales and better common-area maintenance. For a buyer seeking inner-city convenience with a school catchment and a yield above 5%, this unit fits a portfolio or owner-occupier brief equally well. The flood risk overlay on the address is the primary concern; it may affect insurance premiums and resale psychology, though the building itself sits on higher ground relative to nearby low-lying areas. No NBN connection detected is a minor inconvenience,5G coverage is present, and FTTP can be arranged post-settlement. The property is currently listed for rent and sale simultaneously, which can create negotiation leverage if the seller prefers a clean sale over a tenanted hold. Comparable sales in the building at $1.01m for identical layouts set a clear ceiling; buying below the Domain mid-estimate of $1.06m would offer immediate equity. Hold this unit as a long-term rental in a liquid suburb, or occupy it and benefit from the study as a permanent home-office.
