Opportunity like this doesn’t surface often. A generous 1,901m² parcel of vacant land sitting quietly at 49 Lower Road, framed by sweeping mountain ranges and the kind of open sky that reminds you why the Derwent Valley draws people in and rarely lets them go.
This is not just a block of land – it’s a fully realised possibility. A preliminary feasibility study has already been completed for up to five three-bedroom townhouses, meaning the hard thinking has been done and the path forward is clear for those ready to move with confidence.
The site itself is level to gently sloping, generously proportioned, and anchored by mature weeping willows and established natives that give it a natural warmth no landscaper could manufacture overnight. Town services are available, the zoning is General Residential and New Norfolk’s CBD, schools, medical facilities and the Derwent River foreshore are all within easy reach.
New Norfolk is no longer Tasmania’s best-kept secret. Hobartians are arriving in numbers, drawn by affordability, lifestyle and a town that has quietly reinvented itself without losing any of its character. Demand for quality housing here is real and sites of this calibre – with scale, views, and development upside already mapped are genuinely hard to find.
For the developer, the numbers make sense. For the owner-builder, the canvas is extraordinary. For the investor with an eye for timing, the moment is now. Contact Nat Downton for further information or details regarding an inspection.
