Property details

Renovator Incentive / Value Add. Local Lifestyle & Amenities

Nestled on an approximately 498m² flat block-the home presents a rare opportunity for value conscious buyers seeking both lifestyle and upside in a mature seaside suburb. Set directly behind Strong Reserve, this fully fenced garden property offers total privacy with no rear neighbours, as the reserve provides a permanent green buffer and seamless outdoor connection.

Inside, the home retains its original circa-1972 charm, with three bedrooms, one bathroom and 2 x long side driveways/carports capable of accommodating up to four tandem vehicles, 2 x on each side-perfect for van, boat, tradie gear or ample visitor parking. The untouched presentation invites full renovation.

Beyond the home's intrinsic renovation potential, the site presents compelling future development opportunities, subject to Shellharbour Council approval (STCA). Zoned R2 Low Density Residential, the property benefits from the State's recent low-mid rise housing reforms: as of 1 July 2024, dual occupancies and semi - detached dwellings are now permitted in R2 zones with consent-regardless of prior local plan restrictions. Effective 28 February 2025, dual occupancies, terraces, multi - dwelling housing and low rise apartments are also permitted on well connected lots within defined low mid rise housing areas (within ~800m of Shellharbour town centre or transit) under new non discretionary SEPP standards-meaning compliant development can proceed even if local LEP/DCP rules are more restrictive.

With a frontage of around 12m, a clear level footprint, and a lack of rear neighbours, this block meets many of the basic SEPP criteria for future plans:
• Minimum lot size for a duplex is 450m² (0.65:1 FSR, max height 9.5m)
• Possible subdivision down to ~225m² lots
• Minimum one car space per dwelling required

These opportunities should be explored with a qualified town planner or building designer and pre-lodgement meetings with council are advised to confirm feasibility.

For renovators or ambitious buyers, 71 Lake Entrance Rd ticks all the boxes: sweeping reserve outlook, generous parking, a solid block, plus immense upside. Whether you wish to restore its charm, hold for capital growth, or build a second dwelling or duplex down the track, the potential is clear.
