A truly unique opportunity presents itself for astute investors and developers to secure a substantial parcel of land with enormous potential to become the central hub of Miners Rest. With a total landholding of approximately 1.4 hectares (14,011m²) across six titles, this property offers the flexibility to create a development that will service the growing demand in this thriving community.
The holding includes the property at 199 Howe Street, currently operating as the Miners Rest Post Office. Set on approximately 1,911m², this site combines both investment security and future development potential. The second major component of the offering is the former Miners Rest Roadhouse at 201–203 Howe Street. Spanning around 1.21 hectares (12,100m²), it comprises five titles. Two of these titles enjoy valuable Howe Street frontage and are zoned Mixed Use (MUZ), while the remaining three, zoned Neighbourhood Residential (NRZ3), back onto Hamlin Street (unmade). This mix of zoning allows for a wide array of possibilities in the redevelopment strategy.
The range of potential uses is broad and exciting. Whether it be a shopping precinct, medical centre, childcare facility, pharmacy, or other community-focused services, the site lends itself to a development that will directly cater to the needs of Miners Rest’s expanding population. Currently, the property generates income through existing tenancies (lease details on application)
Miners Rest itself has seen strong growth in recent years and continues to emerge as a key outer suburb of Ballarat. The area already boasts an IGA supermarket, primary school, hotel, and roadhouse, but there is a clear and growing demand for additional services and facilities. The suburb also benefits from excellent connectivity, with the Western Freeway providing direct and convenient access to Ballarat and Melbourne.
This is a rare chance to acquire a significant landholding in a prime location with multiple income streams, flexible zoning, and enormous future potential. The property is being offered via Expressions of Interest, and further details can be obtained by contacting Matthew Stevens on 0418 501 323.
