A rare and substantial 69.33-hectare parcel in the heart of Calliope, zoned Emerging Communities, offering an unparalleled residential development opportunity in one of the Region's fastest-growing areas. Buyers in the Region are on high incomes and are chasing 4000m2 blocks to build a large home, shed and pool. This is an outstanding opportunity to develop the 69.33 hectares of Emerging Community Zoned land into a Rural Residential development. Ideally located just minutes to the center of the growing town, with the industrial hub of Gladstone nearby, the site is the perfect opportunity for a unique and highly desirable residential development outcome. Gladstone is positioning itself for growth, which has only really started in the last few years with Calliope alone having a 25.3% growth last year alone. The region is gradually shifting from a traditional LNG/coal economy into a clean energy and manufacturing hub, along with the influx of people moving to the area since covid that most regional areas have/are experiencing. Both the Queensland and Federal Governments are backing major projects like the Boyne Smelter and hydrogen initiatives, and global companies such as Fortescue and Origin are looking to invest there. Together, these factors show strong long-term confidence in the region.
