6 Poplar Street, Bendalong NSW 2539

Bushfire overlay present | 738m² lot with 34% site coverage | Bedroom count discrepancy in listings | Low confidence valuation range from $2.27M–$2.48M The bushfire overlay introduces a compliance cost that must be factored into any offer, typically ranging from $15,000 to $40,000 for vegetation management and building material upgrades depending on the BAL rating. The site coverage at 34% is moderate for a coastal lot, leaving room for future expansion without triggering council pushback, which strengthens the property’s hold period value. This is a family hold, not a flip. The coastal location and modern layout with two living areas plus a study give this property rare flexibility for remote work or multigenerational use, which underpins its premium over older stock in Bendalong. The inconsistent bedroom count across databases is a data hygiene issue, not a physical one, and the valuation gap between the list price and the estimate suggests room for negotiation if you move quickly. Book a face-to-face inspection with Peter Cox to confirm the bushfire BAL rating and verify the floor plan against the marketing photos.
