I always though of "near by" as an misspelling of "nearby". If it should really be "near by" in this case here, please tell me.

near by, near-by, and nearby are all accepted spellings. Perhaps the notion of "misspelling" is not useful as applied to English. We have "alternate" spellings:)

Reference: nearby [near-by] (Granada University)
(adj.) = cercano, cerca, a mano, por aquí, por allí
Ex: An earlier leakage had prompted library staff to make arrangements with a nearby firm of book conservation specialists in the event of a further disaster.

English - Greek Technical Dictionary

near by
(Lex). κοντά, πλησίον
