Whilst the site is zoned LMR3 with allowable buildings heights up to 3 storeys, under the draft Spring Hill neighbourhood plan the property is earmarked for a greater development outcome up to 10 storeys (STCA).” He said the property generated strong interest from local, interstate and off-shore buyers throughout the 4-week Offers to Purchase campaign.
