For sale now is this prime parcel of vacant land, spanning approximately 1,492 sqm, positioned on the fringe of Darwin's CBD-just 750 metres from the Darwin GPO and Smith Street Mall.
Zoned Central Business (CB), the site offers significant development potential with allowable building heights up to 45 metres.
Surrounded by a mix of residential apartments and commercial buildings, the property is approximately 500 metres from Tiger Brennan Drive, one of Darwin's key arterial roads. It sits just one street back from Frances Bay, home to Sea Swift shipping, Fisherman's Wharf, marine supply stores, the Duck Pond mooring basin, and a National Storage facility.
Strategically located, the site adjoins the rear corner of 16 McMinn Street-also currently available for sale-offering the potential to amalgamate both blocks into a larger development footprint.
With its CBD zoning and proximity to the waterfront, the property is ideally suited for residential development, offering the opportunity to capture impressive views upon completion.
The block features landscaped gardens along the frontage, with dual access gates-one on the driveway to the left and another currently obscured by foliage. The north and south boundaries are flanked by neighbouring buildings, while the western boundary adjoins the former Shell depot.
