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.

Estimates only, at standard investor rates — no first-home or owner-occupier concessions applied. Not included: lenders mortgage insurance (usually applies when borrowing more than 80% of the price), loan application and settlement fees from your lender, the foreign-purchaser duty surcharge, and building insurance — in Queensland the property is at your risk from the first business day after signing, not from settlement. Verify with your conveyancer.
Stamp duty and transfer fees: Victoria schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Based on the low end of the asking range, not a contract price.
Pre-filled with Apollo Bay's advertised median rent — not a rent for this listing.
Gross yield is weekly rent × 52 ÷ price. Net yield subtracts operating expenses. Cashflow then subtracts interest-only interest on price × LVR. Tax, vacancies, and principal repayments are not included.
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
VICPlanning 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.” Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown.
Rental
No advertised rent is recorded. Suburb median rent $456/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. Victoria has no public statewide property-level DA API. Nearby pipeline is unknown. 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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 0.5%. The yield that matters is the one on achieved rent, which has not been inferred for this address. Net yield (land tax, rates, insurance, vacancy) is not loaded. Net yield / holding costs are not estimated outside NSW without inventing land tax.
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 Great Ocean Road Real Estate Apollo BayA property of this scale, position and versatility simply couldn't be created today. Set high on 20 elevated acres with uninterrupted views over Apollo Bay and the Otways, this iconic estate combines an architect designed homestead with a thriving luxury accommodation business, all just five minutes from the township.
The main residence, designed by renowned architect John Pizzey, has been beautifully updated to deliver refined coastal living. At its heart is a newly renovated kitchen, blending timeless elegance with modern functionality.
Take in expansive, sweeping views from every room, while generous robed bedrooms and warm, inviting living zones create a home that feels both sophisticated and deeply comfortable. A central wood fire anchors the main living area, complemented by a second living, space ideal for families or guests. The bathrooms have also been transformed, including a luxurious main bathroom with a deep soaking bath and premium double shower, and a matching ensuite that brings the same indulgence to the master suite.
Outside, the estate is fully established with landscaped gardens, a productive vegetable patch, a four car garage, a large machinery shed and 220,000L of water storage.
Five luxury 'Point of View Villas' sit privately across the property, an established, high performing accommodation business with exceptional demand from both local and international tourists. Known for their strong occupancy rates and premium guest experience, the villas offer king beds, spa bathrooms with double showers, full kitchens, fireplaces, air conditioning and private decks with BBQs and sun loungers. The views are extraordinary, making them a sought after destination for romantic escapes and coastal retreats.
Just over two hours from Melbourne and moments from Apollo Bay's beaches, cafés and harbour, this is a once in a generation opportunity: an architect designed home, a proven luxury accommodation enterprise, and an unbeatable coastal lifestyle, all on a property that simply cannot be replicated.
