Overview

Dual Highway Frontage - Landmark 8,453sqm Development Site

This property represents a landmark corner development opportunity within the master-planned Cairns Gateway Estate, strategically located at the intersection of the Bruce Highway and Gillies Range Road. This location serves as the primary gateway to the Atherton Tablelands and Far North Queensland, offering significant regional connectivity.

The site spans a substantial 8,453 square meters and features rare dual highway frontage, including direct northbound access via an approved slip lane. This provides exceptional exposure to one of the region's busiest arterial routes, enhancing the property's commercial appeal.

Situated just 24 kilometers south of Cairns CBD, the property is positioned within the region's fastest-growing southern corridor. This area is supported by significant residential growth, infrastructure investment, and increasing demand for commercial and industrial services, making it a prime location for development.

Zoned for Low Impact Industry, the site offers outstanding flexibility for a broad range of uses. It benefits from preliminary approval for subdivision into three individual lots, each with a minimum size of 2,500 square meters. This allows for staged development, multi-tenancy, or on-sale strategies, catering to various investment and operational needs.

The property is located within a high-quality, master-planned precinct constructed to FNQROC Industrial Collector standards. It is surrounded by established national operators such as Hungry Jack's, Mobil Fuel, and Banjo's Bakery, reinforcing its status as a key emerging commercial hub in the region.

Further enhancing its strategic value, the property will directly benefit from the $535 million Bruce Highway upgrade. This significant infrastructure project will improve connectivity, traffic flow, and long-term growth prospects across Gordonvale and the greater Cairns region.
