Positioned within the R3 Medium Density Residential zoning under the QPRC Local Environmental Plan, this exceptional parcel of land represents a rare and highly valuable opportunity for developers, investors, and forward-thinking buyers.
Why R3 Zoning Matters:
The R3 Medium Density zone is specifically designed to encourage a more diverse and intensive form of residential development than standard low-density housing. This zoning allows for greater flexibility and significantly enhances the land's development potential.
Permitted Uses Include (STCA):
Townhouses / multi-dwelling housing
Dual occupancies
Manor homes / terraces
Boarding houses and other residential accommodation options
This zoning unlocks the ability to increase dwelling yield, making the site particularly attractive for developers seeking to maximise return on investment in a growing regional centre.
Added Income Security – Existing Automotive Business
Further enhancing its appeal, the current landowner operates a long-standing and established automotive business from the site. There is the potential for this business to continue under an agreed commercial lease arrangement, providing purchasers with an immediate income stream or a holding strategy while planning future development. Or simply buy with vacant possession.
This creates a rare dual-benefit scenario:
Short-term rental income and tenant stability
Long-term redevelopment potential under R3 zoning
The Value Proposition:
Higher Density = Higher Returns
Compared to traditional R2 zoning, R3 allows multiple dwellings on a single title, creating strong potential for redevelopment profits or diversified rental income.
