265 Rix Road, Officer VIC 3809

Modern family home in growth corridor | Strong rental yield potential | No overlay risks | Suits owner-occupiers or investors This property occupies a competitively strong position in Officer’s family market. The 467m² block with 235m² of living space is rare in new subdivisions, giving buyers practical room without land tax burden. The double garage with rear internal access and open-plan layout suits families seeking flow and security. Zoning for Officer Secondary College and proximity to shops and transport close a key lifestyle loop. For investors, the $590pw rental midpoint against a $773k valuation implies a gross yield near 4%, which is solid for a Melbourne growth corridor. The property’s clean overlay status and modern build reduce holding surprises. The main risk is price sensitivity in a softening market,the $730k–$800k band sits at the upper end of comparables, and a 2014 purchase price of $490k signals possible vendor flexibility. Buyers should verify virtual staging accuracy and inspect for maintenance in a property only 8 days on market. The opportunity lies in negotiating below the midpoint, given the search band’s $730k–$767k range. FTTP NBN and 5G coverage are supporting value adds, not prime drivers. Hold this property for medium-term capital growth in a suburb with strong infrastructure pipeline.
