No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
No verification items generated for this record.
Each line above is labelled. A fact is quoted from the named source, with its date. A calculation is worked out by Districts from those facts — you can check the arithmetic. An interpretation is Districts' opinion of what the evidence means, not a fact, a valuation, or advice. Anything we haven't retrieved yet is marked as missing rather than treated as a pass.

Source
Planning facts are copied from official government GIS where available. Where an official property PDF exists (VicPlan, PlanBuild), Districts stores and serves that original document. Neither is a planning certificate, survey, or advice.
Site
Terrain has not been calculated for this property yet.
Slope is calculated on a projected metric grid from a public DEM clip of the official parcel. This is not a survey, engineering, or insurance assessment.
Flood exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
The official layer was queried and no heritage listed area was detected on this parcel (NSW ePlanning Spatial Viewer, retrieved 31 Aug 2026). Mapped layers change — this is the strongest all-clear Districts can give, not a certificate.
Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
NSWZoned National Parks and Nature Reserves · C1 (Kempsey Local Environmental Plan 2013). Official parcel area about 1,050,524 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision is unknown without minimum lot size and frontage. This is a screen, not a planning certificate. Zoning and lot facts are a starting point, not proof this lot outperforms the suburb. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
Flood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $521/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. NSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet. Supply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded. Suburb vacancy or leased-tape days are not this property’s competition.
Yield cannot be shown without both a price and a rent figure. Net yield is not estimated from gross advertising copy. NSW net yield needs land tax and VG inputs that are not loaded. Gross yield from listings is not net yield.
Verdict
Districts view
Not enough official evidence yet to underwrite this as an investment.
Detail
The same ten questions apply to every property. Missing flood, nearby DAs, achieved rents, or lot geometry is unknown — not “no.”
Do not treat a suburb median, an advertised yield, or a listing score as the case for this lot.
The evidence loaded so far isn't enough on its own to change a buy, offer, or walk-away decision for this property.
Evidence
Districts asks the same ten questions of every property. If one shows as unknown, that data isn't published for this state or hasn't been loaded yet — the question stays visible so you can see exactly what's missing.

Development optionality of this lot
KnownmediumZoned National Parks and Nature Reserves · C1 (Kempsey Local Environmental Plan 2013). Official parcel area about 1,050,524 m².

Nearby development pipeline
UnknownNSW has a statewide DA API. Nearby (100–800 m) applications are not loaded for this property yet.
Honest achievable rent
KnownlowThis is not “bond data says this address leases for $X.” The comparable figure is a suburb advertised/median rent, not this property. Official bond files (postcode or suburb × type × bedrooms) are not loaded yet.
Rental supply pressure
UnknownSupply pressure needs comparable listings near this lot plus a nearby DA pipeline. Neither is loaded.
Why is this cheap?
KnownmediumOfficial parcel about 1,050,524 m² — land size can look like optionality. No material overlays were returned that would explain a discount. That is not proof the price is fair. Nearby DAs, easements, and flood-layer gaps can still explain a cheap-looking listing — those are not all loaded.
Lot-level flood
UnknownFlood overlay has not been queried for this lot. Missing layer is unknown, not “no.”
Catalyst exposure
UnknownFunded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
This lot's DA history
UnknownNo DA adapter returned applications for this parcel.
Statutory land value versus ask

Net yield / holding costs

Listing material
Listed by Kelly Flanagan Real EstateA very special and unique property - between Crescent Head and Port Macquarie, is this true coastal hideaway with direct river frontage, with the home built right on the bank to take in the best river views up and down the river, and with some lovely cleared pastured land to use. even from your lounge chair you can look up and down the river. It is an amazing and quite spectacular display of water and life to live by and admire.
But it's the more subtle things, the history, the work behind the story and the property we see today that really make this one special. Decades of devotion created this place. It's very established, 'usable', productive and it's also very pretty and pleasant to the eye. Driving into this place you get a sense that you are entering something magical.
The previous long-term owners were an old earthly couple who loved fishing and growing and living off the land. They settled upon this unique block on Maria River and created an idyllic life in the Maria Everglades, on the river. They planted hundreds of fruit trees and made jams and pickles and took them to the market for over 25yrs, almost to the week before they left it behind as old age led them away.
So it's what they created over 30ys - the roads, the pastures, the palms and hibiscus, the pond, the wharf, the bridges and the orchards. They created a magic place. A rural oasis you can move into and live comfortably and spectacularly straight away.
A list of the yes's:
- Stunning riverfront block - 21Ha. (53Ac) approx.
- 'Daintree' rainforest vibe.
- Deep tidal river frontage to Maria River - full of fish, navigate to the ocean.
- Approx16Ac of cleared level land covered in lush pastures. The balance is native forest.
- Beautifully strong, modest: 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, 2 car home.
- Open plan living with river views from your lounge.
- Bedrooms & bathroom upstairs + storerooms downstairs.
- Featuring: new deck, stained glass window, fresh internal paint, new carpet, ceiling fans, plantation shutters.
- Wharf.
-3kW solar pva.
- 2 x 22,500L water tanks + Dam.
- 15 mins to Crescent Head, 20 mins to Port Macquarie, or 25 mins to Kempsey.
- Note: Maria River Road is put down for complete tarring starting late 2019.
Have I mentioned just how private this home is? If you dream of escaping to your own paradise to enjoying nature at its richest and be well away from people, you might be best to check this one out.
