Overview
Situated on a generous 1,008 square metre allotment in a central and sought-after area of Mount Gambier, this property offers a unique development opportunity. The existing home, built around 1930 and currently vacant, provides versatility for various potential buyers including developers, investors, and builders. Its three-bedroom layout includes two spacious rooms with built-in robes plus a smaller third bedroom, accommodating diverse household needs.
The updated kitchen and modern bathroom enhance the home's contemporary comfort, while climate control features like a reverse cycle air conditioner and a gas fireplace ensure year-round usability. This combination makes the residence functional for immediate occupation or leasing, while development plans proceed.
Significantly, the property has received Council and Planning Approval in Principle for a Community Title subdivision. This approval offers a substantial advantage to those aiming to unlock the site's development potential, with prepared plans for two new townhouses at the rear of the block. Although the subdivision has not yet been lodged or completed, the groundwork already completed reduces preliminary hurdles. Purchasers should note that any costs to finalize the subdivision will be their responsibility.
Located close to the central business district, shopping areas, schools, medical facilities, cafes, and other everyday conveniences, this property deftly balances location convenience with development prospect. As demand continues for quality housing and strategically located sites, opportunities like this become increasingly rare.
This offering is suitable for buyers seeking immediate redevelopment potential, those wanting to expand their investment portfolio, or anyone looking for a property with considerable future value. The combination of a solid existing home and subdivision approvals presents a well-rounded prospect to capitalize on the steadily growing market in Mount Gambier.
