No upside evidence detected in the data Districts holds for this lot.
No detected risks — but see the checklist: absence of evidence is not an all-clear.
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.

Planning
Planning data is being calculated
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.
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.
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
NSWPlanning layers have not been retrieved for this property yet. A suburb median or growth rate is not a reason this particular lot would outperform. Funded catalyst catchments are not loaded. A TOD badge is not this product.
Official flood overlay has not been retrieved (pending). Missing layer is unknown, not “no.” 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 $630/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.

Listing material
Listed by Ray White YambaPerched in one of the most coveted positions on Yamba's exclusive Ocean Street, 16 Ocean Street is a truly rare offering - one that combines absolute beachfront living with timeless character, dual-occupancy flexibility, and exciting future potential. With uninterrupted views stretching across Convent Beach to the Pacific Ocean and north along one of the most breathtaking stretches of coastline in Australia, this is a property that captures the essence of coastal living.
From the street, the home presents with all the charm of a classic beach house - modest, honest, and full of character. Inside, that charm continues, with a warm, unpretentious atmosphere that evokes memories of long summer days and relaxed seaside living. But beyond its nostalgic appeal lies a layout of surprising versatility: a dual-level residence, each floor self-contained, offering the ideal setup for multi-generational living, income-producing holiday letting, or hosting guests in comfort and privacy.
Upstairs, the home opens to expansive open-plan living and dining spaces framed by large windows that invite the ocean in at every turn. A balcony stretches the full width of the home, providing the perfect stage for whale watching, capturing sea breezes, and enjoying alfresco evenings as you watch the moon rise over the ocean. Three bedrooms are thoughtfully placed for family comfort, while a second living area offers space to retreat or relax.
Downstairs, the lower level offers a continuation of the home's generous proportions and coastal appeal. Here, glorious hardwood floors, two more bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a second lounge offer complete self-contained comfort. The large outdoor area at the rear also offers space for entertaining or enjoying a moment of quiet by the sea. The laundry at the rear also provides an additional toilet for practicality.
A lock-up garage provides ample space for the vehicle, allowing you the chance to arrive, park the car securely and enjoy the convenience of this location!
Set on a 488m² parcel of land, the property also comes with the added advantage of R3 Medium Density zoning and a 12m height limit, opening the door to future development in one of Yamba's most tightly held beachfront locations. Whether you're looking to preserve the home's beachside character, modernise and extend, or redevelop entirely, the possibilities are as impressive as the view.
Living here means more than just owning oceanfront real estate - it's about embracing a lifestyle where the beach is your front yard, where your coastal walk leads to cafes, restaurants, shops, the Main Beach Ocean Pool and Kiosk, and where every day begins and ends with the soothing sound of the sea.
Now offered to the market for the first time in nearly four decades, and to be sold at auction, this is an opportunity that promises not just a home, but a legacy. Properties like this are incredibly rare, and 16 Ocean Street is without question one of Yamba's most exciting prospects to be offered to the market in recent memory.
Seize the moment. This is your chance to own an iconic slice of Yamba's coastline - front row, forever.
