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.

Data unavailable
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.
The official layer maps a flood zone on this parcel, intersecting about 19.6% of it (Sunshine Coast Council, retrieved 1 Sept 2026). Verify the extent against the title before relying on unaffected land.
Bushfire exposure has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.
Heritage listing has not been retrieved from any source for this property yet. Unknown is not the same as clear.

Records
Events are recorded observations from public listings, kept with their source and date. Missing values are shown as unknown, never estimated.
Capital growth
QLDZoned Rural Zone (Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme 2014). Official parcel area about 430,494 m². Dual occupancy is not confirmed from the controls loaded for this lot. Two-lot subdivision looks constrained (often the rear or handle of the lot). 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.
19.6% of the official parcel intersects the loaded flood overlay. Layer: High Flood Risk Area. Also mapped: Low Flood Risk Area (11.8% of the parcel); Moderate Flood Risk Area (4% of the parcel). That is a finance, insurance, and rentability screen — distinct from whether the land can be subdivided. It is not a flood certificate or an insurer quote. Flood overlay on a material share of the lot can kill a rear-lot or battleaxe subdivision story. Minimum lot size is not loaded, so two-lot subdivision is not confirmed. Official parcel about 430,494 m² — land size can look like optionality. What reduces it: High Flood Risk Area; Low Flood Risk Area; Moderate Flood Risk Area. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $797/week — not this address. An inferred likely-rent range is not shown until official bond series are loaded for this dwelling type and bedrooms. Flood on or flagged for this lot can discount tenant demand versus a dry comparable.
Current comparable rental listings within 400 m of this lot are not loaded. Nearby development applications are not loaded. This lot’s own applications are a separate question. 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. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.
Verdict
Districts view
This looks more like a hold-as-is house than a development site. Flood on the lot is the first thing to price.
Detail
Official parcel about 430,494 m² — land size can look like optionality. What reduces it: High Flood Risk Area; Low Flood Risk Area; Moderate Flood Risk Area. Pay house money or walk — do not pay site money until a planner confirms a pathway through this stack.
Nearby competing dwellings and net yield are still unknown.
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.

Listing material
Listed by Young Property GroupThis iconic and historical landmark property is truly one of the Sunshine Coast's unique properties, having only two owners in the past 118 years. This income producing farm of 42.03 ha or 103 acres, has 890-meter river frontage, 3 income producing buildings, your own private mountain with a spectacular home site, a cabinet timber plantation, 3 dams and 18 acres of paddocks that can be utilised for various farming enterprises. Current rental income is $105,000 pa.
The Rocks Event Centre was originally set up as a restaurant but today it is one of the Sunshine Coast's most popular wedding venues. It is easy to see why. A charming and secluded location overlooking the beautiful Maroochy River. The pavilion is a split-level river view room, which seats up to 80 guests and features beautifully polished timber floors and roof lined fairy lights creating a magical atmosphere. The property is licensed, with a commercial kitchen and bar allowing for full catering services. The events centre is leased to the operator on a long lease.
The "Brown House" is a historic Queenslander built in 1906. The home has been renovated and was once used as art gallery, however today it is rented as a home. Upstairs has an area of 300m2 and incorporates a lounge dining area, kitchen, 3 double bedrooms each with their own ensuite and balcony, office and quintessential Queensland verandah living. The ground floor has a concrete floor with a laundry, shower and toilet. The high clearance would allow extra living space to be constructed if desired.
The studio buildings are a modern addition to the property. The main building (11m x 7m) has a small kitchenette, shower and toilet, laundry and spacious living area. Adjacent to this is a (7m x 4m) building which is currently being used as a storage area but could serve a variety of uses. Currently the studio is rented for the use by the bridal parties.
The spectacular feature of the property is "Want Hill" giving in fact ownership to your own mountain. "Want Hill" is 200 meters or 650 feet high with a distinctive Buddhist shrine located at the top. "Want Hill" offers breathtaking views of the river and farmlands of Yandina below and views to the north. Originally there was a home located on the hill which has since been removed, allowing for the new owners to construct a home of their choice, giving privacy, peace, security overlooking the Sunshine Coast in a truly unique and spectacular location. The two-road access to the property - one off Yandina Coolum Road and the other off Nimbin Place allows for a private entry to the new residence, away from the main farm activities.
A 20m x 7 m timber truss and iron clad shed has 3 bays, 4 roller doors, open carport with concrete floor, power and is ideal for farm machinery and storage. A small nursey is located behind the shed.
In 2002 and 2004 a cabinet timber plantation was established as a future income stream for the property. The plantation covers an area of 7.7ha or 19 acres with 8,526 rainforest timber trees. Varieties include - Silver Quandong, Silky Oak, Queensland Maple, Crows Ash, White Beech, Red Cedar, Black Bean, White Cedar, Deep Yellowwood, Silver Ash and Kauri Pine.
There are 5 separate paddocks totalling an area of around 18 acres. In previous years ginger was grown in these paddocks and with the excellent water supply similar crops could be grown again. The paddocks are also suited for grazing livestock such as cattle or horses.
There are 3 dams with the largest being 4 acres in area. Looking out over the dams with the back drop of Mt Ninderry gives one a sense of peace and tranquillity. An excellent bore supplies high-quality drinking water to the function centre, the residence and studio. A 23,000-litre holding tank is located on the hill to supply the farm with gravity fed drinking water in case of a pump failure.
An irrigated orchard has mango, orange, ruby grape fruit, lime, lemonade, mandarin, kumquat plumb, persimmon, peach, custard apple, apple, macadamia and guava plus other exotic trees scattered around the property.
The historical cane railway line is still present on the property complete with its own timber railway bridge.
The 890-meter river frontage is enormous and allows for all river activities such as boating, fishing, crabbing, kayaking and even water skiing. From here you can travel by boat or jet ski down the river to the mouth at Cotton Tree.
Located on the eastern side of the Bruce Highway, "The Rocks "is only 4 km or 5-minute drive to Yandina. Access to the highway is only 2 km away, in fact, you can see" Want Hill" from the Highway.
Travelling to the other Sunshine Coast locations is easy, with Coolum Beach a short 15-minute drive, Maroochydore is 20 minutes and Noosa Beach just 30-minutes.
For International travellers Sunshine Coast airport is only 30 minute's drive while the Brisbane International airport is 1 hour 10 minutes away.
