- Capital value: $710,000, land $320,000, improvements $390,000 · 296 m² · ref 23448/05800 · roll last edited February 2026

A mass appraisal the council runs every three years to divide the rates bill, not a market price, and not a valuation of this house in particular.

These are modelled floor and flood levels from the council’s freeboard viewer, not a surveyed finished floor or a finding on this house, for anything with money attached, the council’s LIM is the certified property file.
