A private landowner has listed these four (4) parcels of land that creates a significant development opportunity, multiple options can be explored. The site could be bought as a 20-acre site or Doolong Road only (5 acres), or just the Gilston Road sites in one line (15 acres).
Currently, the sites on Gilston Road are permit approved for 58 lots with Frasier Coast Council indicating they may be favourable to a scheme for 104 lots as per the overlay plan (Proposed plans within).
Doolong South Road is suitable for a 44 LOT subdivision (STCA).
The total parcel of 8.08ha across 4 titles could yield 148 LOTS (STCA), or more if community living/over 55’s living was applied.
The subject site is located within an ‘Emerging Communities’ Zone Code, pursuant to Section 6.2.16, and the Doolong Flats/Ghost Hill Emerging Community Local Plan Code, pursuant to Section 7.2.1 of the Fraser Coast Planning Scheme.
The subject lots currently benefit from a valid development approval; endorsement of revised plans of development; and concept plans endorsed by Council. The current approval allows:

- “Material change of use – Childcare centre, community use, food and drink outlet, health care services, relocatable home park (medium density townhouses), multiple dwelling (accessible dwellings), office and shop.
Plans have further been approved (513/3-081203 on 24 July 2023) for residential subdivision estate of Gilston Road lots (Lots 9, 10 and 11 on RP134306) and allows a mix of duplex lots and residential lots ranging between 500 SQM – 1300 SQM in area.
In context of both the existing and future strategic directive for the subject lots and the Emerging Communities’ Zone Code, the site is considered entirely suitable for a residential based development outcome that includes a mix of residential subdivision lots aligned with market expectations and/or a mixed-use development outcome underpinned by residential subdivision and supported by community type land uses – i.e. child care; community facilities; health care; food and drink; aged care etc.
