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: New South Wales schedules from 2026-07-01. Ongoing council rates and land tax are not included.
Pre-filled with Merimbula'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
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 $479/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.
Gross yield if leased at the suburb aggregate is 1.2%. 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. 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 One Agency Dwyer PropertiesPerfectly positioned on the sun-drenched north-eastern ridge of Short Point, this exceptional single-level home delivers an ever-changing panorama that defines the very best of Sapphire Coast living. From sunrise over the ocean to the sparkling lights of Merimbula after dark, every outlook invites you to slow down and soak it all in.
Life here revolves around the views. The front of the home embraces breathtaking vistas stretching from the golden sands of Short Point Beach, across the shimmering waters of Merimbula Lake and out to the mountain ranges beyond. As evening falls, the lights of Merimbula create a magical backdrop, transforming every sunset into a memorable experience.
At the rear, the lifestyle continues with tranquil ocean views enjoyed from the kitchen and expansive entertaining deck. Whether you're sharing a morning coffee as the sun rises, hosting family and friends for a summer barbecue, or simply unwinding with the sound of the waves in the distance, this is a home that makes the most of its remarkable coastal setting.
Designed across a single, flowing level, the home combines effortless accessibility with generous living spaces, creating a relaxed sanctuary where stunning outlooks and everyday comfort come together in perfect harmony.
Inside, the home radiates warmth and character. Cypress pine floorboards underfoot and rich cedar doors and windows create a welcoming, almost nostalgic feel, while the layout has been thoughtfully designed for modern living. At its heart, a generous kitchen with ample bench space connects seamlessly to the dining and living zones, all anchored by a central wood fire. It's easy to imagine winter evenings spent here-fire crackling, views stretching out before you, and a sense of complete comfort.
Accommodation is both flexible and generous. Three well-proportioned bedrooms are complemented by an additional multi-purpose room-ideal as a guest bedroom, home office or second living space depending on your needs. The main suite is a true retreat, offering elevated views from both the bedroom and its ensuite, making it a space you'll never want to leave.
Outdoors, the lifestyle offering continues. Landscaped gardens are as practical as they are charming, featuring established mandarin, orange and lime trees, a veggie patch and two tranquil fountains. Whether you're pottering in the garden or simply enjoying the surroundings, it's a space that invites you to slow down.
For those who love to entertain, the home offers two distinct alfresco zones. The front and rear decks are cleverly positioned to follow the sun and capture the best of the views, while the rear deck has been enhanced with sliding glass windows and a strip heater-making it a true year-round entertaining space. And to top it all off, a Canadian therapeutic outdoor spa provides the perfect place to unwind after a day spent exploring the coast.
Practicality hasn't been overlooked. There's a single garage, carport, and ample space for a boat or caravan, along with thoughtful extras including 1.5kW solar panels, a 2000L water tank with electric pump, a wired Bosch security system, underfloor insulation, two gas outlet points and a wood firebox.
This is a home that offers not just a place to live, but a lifestyle to savour-effortless, flexible, and rich in character, all set in one of the area's most tightly held and picturesque pockets.
