47-49 Woodburn Street

Positioned in the centre of Evans Head's town centre precinct, this exceptional site presents a rare opportunity to secure a large-scale mixed-use development holding, with the property to be sold via auction. Offering the potential for a four-storey development (STCA), the site is suited to a combination of activated commercial space and premium residential apartments, just moments from the beach, river and village centre. With no other central commercial development sites of this scale currently available, this offering represents a significant opportunity for developers to deliver a landmark project within a tightly held coastal market. Key Development Features: Potential for four-storey mixed-use development (STCA). Zero boundary setbacks permissible, maximising development footprint. North-east street frontage, ideal for café and dining activation. Opportunity for residential apartments above commercial spaces (STCA). Rear lane access supporting parking and construction logistics. Existing infrastructure positioning with no anticipated lane widening requirements. Rooftop potential for amenities or hospitality uses (STCA). Ability to incorporate grease traps and flexible services for food and beverage tenancies (STCA). Public domain support for outdoor dining and activated streetscapes. Strategic Planning Advantages: Positive early engagement with Richmond Valley Council. Support for projects that activate the town centre, create employment and additional housing. Limited future land supply due to surrounding national parkland. Established planning precedents for height variations within the LGA. Investment Highlights: One of the last large-scale mixed-use development opportunities in Evans Head. Central location within walking distance to Evans River, Main Beach and town amenities. Scope to deliver a landmark commercial and residential precinct. Strong underlying demand from tourism, sea-change buyers and local residents. Following preliminary discussions with Richmond Valley Council's planning department, there is strong encouragement for a project of this nature to contribute to the next stage of Evans Head's commercial and residential evolution. With the town surrounded by national parkland and limited opportunity for further expansion, the focus is shifting toward thoughtful vertical development. Concept discussions suggest the potential for approximately 2,000m² of activated ground-floor commercial space, ideal for professional services, medical or allied health suites, cafés, restaurants and boutique retail (STCA). Council feedback has also highlighted support for flexible commercial tenancies, including arcade-style connectivity to enhance pedestrian flow and streetscape activation. This property will be offered for sale via public auction, providing a clear and transparent opportunity for buyers to secure Evans Head's most significant development site. Auction: Saturday 2nd May at 4:30pm (onsite) For further information or to arrange an inspection, contact Brody Aleckson on 0428 661 402.
