On the marketPrice:Offers Over $920,000Listed 74 daysView listing↗
Established family home in a low-density zone, 1 km from an in-catchment primary, with site constraints to verify.
Lot600 sqm freehold block in a low-density residential zone; typical size for the area.
MarketTrained on 8 sales, so the price range is wide. Worth checking against current listings before settling on a number.
NeighbourhoodMedium flood overlay applies; low bushfire risk; 8 subdivision applications within 1 km; warehouse approved 931 m away.
If you're moving in
Solid family location, but site constraints need checking before any build or extension.
Positives
Loganholme SS is in-catchment and 1 km away, a genuine walkable school run.
Crime sits at 7.6 per 1,000 households against a metro median of 10.6, trend decreasing.
Solar panels noted in the listing record (not visually verified), supporting running-cost savings.
Watchouts
If you plan to extend or add a structure, the combined easements (~178 sqm no-build corridor plus ~148 sqm registered easement) significantly limit where building can go.
Medium flood overlay applies; allow for flood insurance before committing.
If you're investing
Strong rental growth signal, but site constraints and flood overlay add holding-cost risk.
Positives
3-bedroom rents up ~48.8% over 3.2 years; current weekly rental estimate is $678.
Loganholme SS in-catchment at 1 km supports family tenant demand and longer tenancies.
Watchouts
8 subdivision applications within 1 km may add newer-stock competition over time.
Medium flood overlay will affect insurance premiums; obtain a quote before calculating net returns.

PXR 360 LensSurrounds
2c
Quiet suburban street with a mix of similar-era single-storey brick homes on both sides. Neighbours appear generally well-maintained. There are established trees along the verge and on nearby blocks. Power lines run along the street. The area has a settled, low-density residential feel with modest street parking.
A read of the immediate streetscape. Walk the area to confirm character before any decision.
Dimensions
Subdivision screenLow or not possible
Subdivision potential is low or not possible. Does not meet Logan's dimensional thresholds for a 2-lot split.
Why it screens low: the lot (600 m², about 19 m of street frontage) is below both the area (900 m²) and frontage (30 m) two lots would need.
These overlays did not change the size assessment above, but each one can affect or block a subdivision on its own: flood, easement. Confirm with council or a town planner.

Property through time
2015
The same spot across the decades, from the Queensland Government aerial archive. Drag through the years and watch what changes.
Dams and water lines
A dam or creek line visible in an early frame but absent today can mean filled ground. Cross-check the flood section and ask about it at inspection.
Structures near the boundary
A permanent structure (anything with footings and a roof) that appears between frames close to a boundary line may have needed a siting relaxation from council. Check the development applications section for a matching approval.
Vegetation change
Thinning or cleared vegetation across the years is useful context for the bushfire reading and for how established the street has become.
These are observations to guide your own look at the frames, not conclusions about the property.
No variation DAs recorded against this address. Compliant works (built within setbacks and under the height limit) are signed off by a private certifier and never enter the council DA register. So a clean record here means no variations were sought, not that no work has been done.

For fringe estates not yet connected
Indicative network position, not survey grade. Always confirm via Dial Before You Dig before any excavation.
Service lateral
A small private pipe that connects your house to the public sewer in the street. It usually runs through your front yard. If a future build sits on top of it, repairs may require digging through a slab or driveway.
Sewer main material
Older suburbs often have vitreous clay or cast iron mains laid in the 1960s and earlier. Newer estates use polyethylene or PVC. Material matters because failure rates rise with age, and a future main replacement can disrupt the street.
Invert level and depth
A deeper sewer can serve a deeper basement; a shallow one limits how low your fixtures can sit without a pump.
Sewer pump station
A small pumping facility that lifts sewage uphill where gravity will not do the work. Modern ones are mostly silent and odour-controlled, but worth checking on a warm summer day.
Sewer treatment plant
Where sewage is processed before release. Modern plants run quietly with significant odour control, but on a hot day the boundary smell can carry several hundred metres.
Hydrant location
Hydrants supply water for fire-fighting. A hydrant within 90 m of a property is a typical regulatory standard.
Service extension area
Some properties on the urban fringe are scheduled for future sewer connection. Until then a septic system is required, which adds ongoing running and inspection costs.
Electricity infrastructure
No-build corridor
A high-voltage transmission easement crosses this lot, covering 29.6% of the lot. Inside that strip you cannot build, extend, or usually place a pool or shed, so it caps renovation and development upside. Confirm the exact line on the title plan.
What you would see from the yard
The line runs along a no-build corridor on this lot. You would see the pylon and wires from the yard, and cannot build inside the shaded strip.

Indicative infrastructure position, not survey grade. Confirm registered easements on the title search before purchase.
Transmission easement (no-build corridor)
A high-voltage transmission easement is a strip of your land registered to the network operator so the lines can be accessed and kept clear. Inside it you generally cannot build, extend, or even put a pool or shed, and the restriction runs with the title to every future owner. On a small lot that strip can swallow a large share of the buildable area, which caps both renovation and development upside.
Why distance to the lines matters
Proximity to high-voltage lines and substations is not a title burden, but it does shape the buyer pool. Perception and EMF concerns make some buyers and some lenders wary, fairly or not, which can thin the field at resale. The lines are also visible from the yard. We report the exact distance so you can weigh it with your own eyes: further away means less concern.
Effect on subdivision and development
A transmission corridor running through or beside a lot can constrain a future subdivision, because the no-build strip and the access setbacks reduce the developable footprint. If your plan relies on splitting the block or adding a second dwelling, check the corridor alignment before you commit.
Coverage and confirmation
Easement corridors are mapped per council and some overlays are not yet published, so a clear result here is only as good as the council layer behind it. Where the overlay is missing we say so rather than imply the lot is clear. Either way, the title search is the definitive record of what is registered on the land.
Feng shui demand read
Feng shui is a traditional belief system, included for cultural interest. It is not factual, scientific, financial, or valuation advice, and is not a substitute for a personalised consultation with a qualified practitioner.
Reads as a steady, neutral feng shui profile, with a lot-shape consideration and a road-alignment consideration that are easily softened with the cures noted below.
A meaningful share of SEQ buyers weighs feng shui, so these factors influence demand and resale regardless of personal belief. Treat this as a saleability signal, not advice.

Factors weighed
Tap a wedge or a sign for its detail.
What the signs mean Favourable Not a factor Worth a glance Fix to boost
Solar & Bright Aspectneutral
The rear aspect faces south-west. An east or west aspect still gets good light for part of the day, supporting a bright, liveable space.
Remedy: brighter lighting in dark corners, mirrors to bounce light, open curtains to maximise daylight, warm bright colours, healthy plants and a well-lit entrance (the "mouth of qi")
Lot shapechallenged
This is an irregular block. This is considered less favourable in feng shui by some buyers and practitioners. An irregular outline is read as less even in its flow of chi. It is commonly addressed with completing the square with a fence or wall, anchoring a missing corner with a lamp, statue, fountain, large stone or flagpole, landscaping to soften sharp angles, and interior mirrors to imply the missing space. For a personalised assessment, consult a qualified practitioner.
Remedy: completing the square with a fence or wall, anchoring a missing corner with a lamp, statue, fountain, large stone or flagpole, landscaping to soften sharp angles, and interior mirrors to imply the missing space
Road alignment (sha chi)challenged
A road appears to terminate head-on at the block (a T-junction head). This is considered less favourable in feng shui by some buyers and practitioners. This alignment is described as a "poison arrow" (sha chi) aimed at the home. It is commonly addressed with a hedge, wall, fence or screen as a first line, then dense planting or a curved path; some practitioners add an outdoor convex bagua mirror, which must never be aimed at a neighbour’s home. For a personalised assessment, consult a qualified practitioner.
Remedy: a hedge, wall, fence or screen as a first line, then dense planting or a curved path; some practitioners add an outdoor convex bagua mirror, which must never be aimed at a neighbour’s home
Street number (Chinese numerology)neutral
Number 12: numerically neutral. This is Chinese numerology (homophones), a minor resale-liquidity consideration in some submarkets, not classical feng shui.
Mitigation: cosmetic folk cures such as a red circle around the digit or lucky characters on the letterbox; a council renumbering is a rare exception
Surrounding featuresneutral
No notably auspicious or inauspicious features close by.
Remedy: blocking the line of sight with a wall, hedge, fence or trees, a bright and well-kept (yang) interior, and for yin sources such as a cemetery or hospital a concave bagua mirror, which absorbs rather than reflects
A genuine feng shui reading is personal and site-specific (compass orientation, period, and the occupants’ details) and can only come from a qualified practitioner. PXR makes no guarantee of the accuracy or outcome of any cure described here.

⚠️ A registered encumbrance is registered on this lot. The registered encumbrance parcel covers approx 11,666 m² (shown on the map). To see what the registered encumbrance restricts, order a title or covenant search (via your conveyancer). Property X-Ray reports that a registered encumbrance exists and where it sits, not its terms.
PXR Risk ReadWhat the signals say
2/5 flagged
Title encumbrance: a registered easement covers ~148 m² (24.6%) of the lot. A registered land constraint, not an environmental hazard. See the Property section.
Medium flood overlay and above-median crime (653 offences within 1.5 km, trend easing) are the primary signals; a carport has no matching DA on file. Bushfire, heritage, noise, and no deal-killer structure flags.
For investors
The flood overlay may affect lender valuations and rental yield if insurers apply flood-specific conditions; the unverified carport warrants DA resolution before settlement to avoid future compliance exposure.
For owner-occupiers
The medium flood overlay warrants confirming actual inundation history before committing, and the carport's approval status should be resolved to avoid rectification obligations post-purchase.

Insurance considerations
Insurers will likely require disclosure of the flood overlay classification and may request a flood search or survey certificate before confirming cover terms.
This report is one lot. The Tanah Merah suburb page shows the whole picture: house prices, what is being approved and built, the crime mix, schools and rental yield.
Property X-Ray pulls flood, bushfire, crime, DAs, zoning, school catchments, AI vision read, indicative valuation and rental yield from 15+ official Queensland sources. Showcase reports are snapshots, but a live report on your own address takes seconds.
