By Jo Kennett THE CLARENCE Property group has just purchased a large block of land at Bilambil Heights, with construction on a masterplanned residential community expected to start soon. The company paid $13.5 million for a 16-hectare residential development site with approvals already in place for 100 lots and a community park. The Bilambil project, located at the corner of Stott Street and Walmsleys Road, joins Clarence’s growing portfolio of communities including the $400-million Casuarina Beach on the Tweed Coast, the $300-million Epiq at Lennox Head and the $100-million Yamba Quays. The acquisition comes off the back of a busy 2020 which saw Clarence Property Group acquire five new assets in the commercial, logistics and retail sectors for a combined $70 million. Clarence Property managing director Peter Fahey said marketing and early construction activity is expected to start at the Bilambil Heights site around mid-year, “addressing a major gap in the market for larger home sites close to the coast and existing infrastructure.” “The level of demand we are seeing across all of our communities is unprecedented – there’s scarce supply of land and we are receiving multiple offers for lots and achieving record prices as buyers put their best foot forward to avoid missing out,” he said. “With three communities now in the mature phase of their life cycle, we are ready to enter into the development of a new community to ensure we continue our pipeline of residential land supply in the region.

“We’ve done our research and our Bilambil community will deliver exactly what purchasers have indicated they are looking for, with lots ranging from 542 square metres through to just over three hectares, with an average size of about 1,200 square metres. “These large homesites will be in a semirural setting, surrounded by bushland with aspects to the coastline, yet still within easy reach of amenities, with Coolangatta Beach and associated retail and restaurants just ten minutes away, and three schools within a 20-minute drive.” Mr Fahey said Bilambil Heights was still “relatively untapped in terms of development potential.” “It straddles the area between the Tweed and Gold Coast with easy access to the motorway, making it the ideal location for those looking for a position central to both regions,” he said. He expects the Bilambil Heights community to attract a mix of purchasers due to the variety of housing on offer. “The larger lots will appeal to local families looking to upgrade to a new home, as well as buyers from the city and interstate eager for a tree change close to the beach,” Mr Fahey said. “The site incorporates a mix of flat home sites, gently sloping lots and some contoured lots, paving the way for a mix of traditional and split level homes, which have the potential for spectacular hinterland vistas and scenic ocean views. “This development will mirror the successful model Clarence has used in other areas, creating boutique communities with ample green space, underpinned by a community park which encourages people to come together.”

“Surfing is a big deal for the Tweed and it is a big deal for the Nationals in NSW Government and that is why we are providing Fingal Rovers SLSC $44,259 to go solar and to fit out their kiosk,” Mr Provest said.
“On top of that, $223,687 is heading to Cabarita Beach SLSC for extra training rooms and other critical upgrades. “Surf life saving in the Tweed is about much more than preventing drownings. It’s our way of life and it supports jobs, the economy and volunteerism, and youth.” President of Surf Life Saving NSW, George Shales OAM, said ensuring rescue facilities across NSW remained safe, accessible and secure was a top priority. “This allows significant upgrades to surf club facilities to improve access for our 75,000 members,” Mr Shales said. With 129 clubs across the state, volunteer surf lifesavers performed 2,500 rescues, 141,000 preventative actions and 7,000 first aid treatments in 2020.
