Property Description

This expansive 28 316m² site, zoned Business 1, offers a rare opportunity to deliver a large-scale residential or social housing development in a strategically positioned growth node. Located just off a major arterial road, the property combines excellent accessibility and connectivity with strong frontage, making it well suited for a development that can attract sustained tenant demand while providing long-term value to the community. The zoning is a major strength, as Business 1 permits residential alongside retail and service uses, allowing for an integrated precinct that can meet both housing and lifestyle needs. For social housing developers, this creates flexibility to design a residential-led scheme complemented by neighbourhood retail or services, thereby enhancing livability and diversifying income streams. The site's size also allows for density at scale, supporting the delivery of a significant number of units to meet the ongoing demand for affordable and social housing. From a development readiness perspective, the site is level, fully accessible, and primed for construction, ensuring reduced upfront preparation costs and faster time to market. Given the steady demand for well-located, affordable rental stock and the government's ongoing focus on housing delivery, this site presents a compelling opportunity for developers to create a sustainable residential project with strong long-term fundamentals.
