16 Starcevich Cres, Jacka ACT 2914
Detached family house | 223 m² build on ~450 m² block | EER 4.5 | FTTP NBN | Estimated rent $835/week
This is a competitively strong family house for Jacka, offering a noticeably larger internal footprint than much of the surrounding detached stock. The 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 2-car configuration is the standard family format in this corridor, but the 223 m² of living space gives it a practical edge over tighter builds on similar-sized blocks. It serves best an owner-occupier family wanting modern space without moving to a larger, more expensive suburb. The EER 4.5 is ordinary for newer builds, but FTTP and 5G coverage make it well-suited to remote work. The quiet residential setting and no overlay constraints support stable, long-term occupancy.
The property’s value may be influenced by its higher-than-typical building coverage at roughly 50%, which limits outdoor space relative to some neighbours. The estimated rent of $835/week suggests a gross yield in the mid-3% range, which is typical for this price point and unlikely to attract investors seeking high returns. The absence of a premium aspect or standout site feature means value will rest primarily on the house size and condition. A buyer should weigh whether the larger build justifies the price premium over smaller nearby houses, and consider that the 2021 sale of a similar house on a nearly identical block at $821,000 may anchor expectations.

Market Insight
Jacka, a small ACT suburb with 712 residents and an average age of 32, is a thinly traded market. Domain recorded just six house sales in the past year—four three-bedroom and two four-bedroom—while Allhomes lists two sales on an unspecified timeline. Price data is largely opaque: no median house price, growth rate, rental yield, or vacancy figures are published, and Domain shows no median days on market. Individual listings on Allhomes were advertised for 71 to 104 days, suggesting a slow, buyer-favoured turnover. The low transaction count means the suburb offers little price transparency; future growth drivers and risks remain unquantified, with no reliable data on transport, schooling, affordability, or supply constraints. The young demographic profile hints at entry-level demand, but the absence of robust sales data makes any directional call premature.
