37 Melaleuca Drive, Yamba NSW 2464

Waterfront rarity | Deep-water pontoon | Low flood elevation | Premium Yamba position This property occupies a scarce deep-water position on the Clarence River, with a private pontoon enabling direct river-to-ocean access — a configuration few waterfront houses in Yamba can match. The near-new build, at 340 square metres with five bedrooms, delivers generous internal volume and a layout that suits both full-time family living and high-end holiday use. The in-ground pool and balcony overlooking the water reinforce the leisure-oriented appeal, and the side access for a boat or caravan adds practical utility for serious boating owners. For buyers seeking a turnkey coastal residence with immediate water access and no deferred maintenance, this property offers a rare combination of size, position, and condition. The confirmed flood planning overlay and ground elevation of only two metres represent the primary risk, requiring careful due diligence on insurance costs and flood history before proceeding. This vulnerability may limit long-term capital growth relative to higher-ground waterfront options, but it also reduces competition from risk-averse buyers, creating potential negotiating leverage. The property suits a buyer who prioritises lifestyle and immediate water access over maximum capital protection, and who is prepared to manage flood risk through appropriate insurance and building resilience measures.
