3 bed, 2 bath, 177m² house on a 1284m² block | Bushfire overlay | Coastal Kingborough pocket | Illawarra Primary zone The property sits on a 1284m² parcel in a coastal enclave, which is the strongest structural advantage here-buyers are paying for land depth, not just house size. The 14% building coverage leaves genuine scope for extension or a secondary dwelling, and the 177m² internal area is workable for a family or downsizer seeking space without overcapitalising. Zoned for Illawarra Primary and with reliable NBN and mobile coverage, it suits owner-occupiers who value school access and a semi-rural feel over immediate proximity to Hobart’s core. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk-it can raise insurance premiums and constrain development without council approval, which a buyer must factor into holding costs and any future subdivision logic. The lack of sold history or rental track record means the $1,039,000 estimated value is untested in a transaction, so a buyer should negotiate from a position of caution, not confidence in that figure. For a buyer willing to hold medium-term, the land bank potential and low building coverage offer a patient path to value uplift, but this is not a property for a quick flip or a buyer needing immediate rental yield.
