Section 01 · The Opportunity

A build-ready, DA & BA approved development site in Brisbane's southwest growth corridor.

A prime development opportunity in the established and fast-growing suburb of Berrinba, ~23 km south of the Brisbane CBD. A flat 1.6-hectare residential site that comes with full Development Approval and Building Approval for 36 uniform homes — a single, streamlined design and specification across the project.

The homes are delivered on generous freehold lots either side of a public road dedicated through the site — not a community-titles scheme, so there is no body corporate and no ongoing levies. The price also includes an existing, beautifully maintained architectural home at the front of the land, which can be sold separately to recoup part of the investment.

Section 02 · The Development Approval

A current permit, maintained through a documented chain of Council-approved extensions.

A current Development Permit for a 36-unit Multi Unit Development (MCUI/4/2011), kept continuously alive and extended on merit — most recently found code assessable and compliant on the 2023 assessment.

Extended to 27 Jul 2027 · code assessable

Current to 27 July 2027. Building Approval is in place for 36 uniform homes. On the 2023 assessment the 36-home yield (22.22 equivalent dwellings/ha) was found code assessable and compliant on setbacks, site cover, height, density and private open space — with Council noting the mapped overlays do not substantially impact the development. Purchasers should obtain the amended /C conditions and the BA documentation as part of due diligence.

Section 05 · Approved Scheme
Approved General Site Plan of Development — 36 units

Approved General Site Plan of Development — 36 units (Drawing 01). Indicative; refer to approved plans and amended /C conditions.

36 homes, one uniform design

The approved layout places 36 attached and detached dwellings in clusters along internal driveways, either side of a new 8 m-wide public road dedicated through the site.

Each Approved Home
4bed3bath2car

A single uniform design and specification across all 36 freehold homes — simpler delivery, faster build, consistent product.

New public road

16 m reserve dedicated through the centre — the basis for freehold delivery.

Existing house retained

Retained near the Bush Tucker Road frontage; separable for sale.

Powerlink easement

275 kV line crosses the east; the approved layout works around the tower band.

Water treatment

Detention / treatment area to the north-west.

Section 06 · Build-Ready

A streamlined, build-ready project — flat site, services in place.

No bulk earthworks

No demolition, excavation, compaction, retaining walls or cut & fill.

Flat, drains naturally

Natural ~3% fall to Council-provided discharge points.

Services on site

Sewer, stormwater, water and electricity available to the site.

Fencing complete

Fencing completed for all lots.

Alternative Schemes — Upside

Potential, under a new approval, to reposition the project as:

44townhouses — higher density
23premium lots — larger lot option

Alternative schemes are indicative and subject to a new approval; not currently approved.

Powerlink easement. An overhead HV transmission easement crosses the site with a 45 m buffer. A Safety Certificate has been issued by Powerlink, with potential to reduce the buffer to 30 m subject to inspection.

Section 07 · Freehold Delivery

No body corporate

A defining feature of this approval is the dedication of a public road through the centre of the site — a 16 m road reserve (8 m carriageway) dedicated to Council, connecting Bush Tucker Road through to the adjoining network.

Because the dwellings are delivered as freehold parcels on each side of that public road — rather than around internal common property — the project is not structured as a single community-titles scheme.

Why this matters

Standard freehold lots

No body corporate to establish or run

No ongoing body-corporate levies

No shared common property to manage

No BCCM scheme disclosure obligations

Simpler and more marketable to end buyers

Section 09 · Development Economics — Indicative

Two value components: the approved 36-home scheme, plus the included home.

Indicative only — not a feasibility. A purchaser must prepare their own with professional cost advice.

Component A · The Development

36-dwelling approved scheme

Approved yield36 dwellings
Net density22.22 ED/ha — accepted
Infrastructure charge$1,118,880 net
Charge triggerAt commencement
Component B · The Existing Home

Retained dwelling — separable

Indicative value~$1.5M (to appraise)
The home5-bed, 370 m² on ~900 m²
PositionFront-left, clear of project
OptionSell separately to recoup

Reading the two together. The $4.9M price covers the DA & BA approved development and the existing home. The home is separable — it can be sold on its own title to recoup part of the investment, leaving the buyer effectively in the development land. Holding outgoings: Council rates ~$920/quarter; water ~$395/quarter. On subdivision the infrastructure charge apportions across new lots, so sequencing should be modelled.

Surrounded by amenity

Transport & logistics hubs, industrial/commercial precincts, universities, TAFE and schools, medical centres and hospitals — with easy motorway access.
