Merewether's Rare Big-Block Redevelopment Play with the Frontage to Match



In a suburb where land is the ultimate status symbol, this 1,005sqm (approx.) holding with a huge 20.12m frontage is the kind of site developers and dream-home builders wait years to find. The true value is the scale, proportions and north-facing orientation, a foundation for a high-end redevelopment concept or a statement family residence that simply isn't being delivered on blocks like this anymore.

This is a genuine land-first opportunity with the fundamentals to support big ideas, from a multi-dwelling concept to a premium new build that makes the most of the setting.

Merewether blocks of this calibre are becoming harder to replace every year, and it's the wide frontage that really sets the tone here, giving you design flexibility and street presence that smaller sites just can't match. Whether your end game is a premium redevelopment outcome or building an uncompromising family home with every extra, this is a blue-chip landholding with genuine scarcity value.

All building and development is subject to the relevant approvals from Newcastle City Council (STCA).
