Overview

Exceptional Development Opportunity - DA Approved Co-living Housing

Positioned in one of Newcastle's fastest-growing suburbs, this exceptional Mayfield site presents a rare DA-approved development opportunity tailored for immediate action and strong future returns. Zoned R3 - medium density residential & situated on approximately 1,033m2 of land with rear lane access for additional convenience. The site currently contains a vacant, uninhabitable building along with an oversized double garage. With development consent already secured for a 26 room Co-living building, the groundwork has been done - allowing savvy developers and investors to bypass lengthy approval timeframes and move straight to delivery. The approved scheme capitalises on favourable planning provisions under the NSW Housing SEPP, which encourages well-located, higher-density accommodation close to transport and amenities, often with flexible design standards and reduced parking requirements. This makes Mayfield- just minutes to the CBD, university, and transport corridors - an ideal setting for this style of development. The policy permits up to 4 storeys which could allow for 45 co-living units - subject to council approval.
