Open Times
Share This Property
In a suburb where land is the ultimate status symbol, this 1,005sqm (approx.) holding with a huge 20.12m frontage is the kind of site developers and dream-home builders wait years to find. The true value is the scale, proportions and north-facing orientation, a foundation for a high-end redevelopment concept or a statement family residence that simply isn't being delivered on blocks like this anymore.
This is a genuine land-first opportunity with the fundamentals to support big ideas, from a multi-dwelling concept to a premium new build that makes the most of the setting.

All building and development is subject to the relevant approvals from Newcastle City Council (STCA).
