    Benowa Gardens — $1bn Urban Village Masterplan Approved

    203 Ashmore Road, Benowa

    The 17,660sqm Benowa Gardens site at 203 Ashmore Road — previously a Neighbourhood Centre-zoned shopping centre — has had its ~$1bn mixed-use urban village masterplan approved: approximately 413 apartments plus around 10,000sqm of retail and 9,630sqm of office/medical space.

    Investor note

    An approved conversion from retail-only zoning to a $1bn mixed-use precinct is a significant land-value event for central Benowa — it adds residential density, employment floorspace and amenity to a suburb with little existing high-density supply.

    Mixed-Use Precinct — 413 Dwellings + Retail & Services

    Spotted 8 weeks ago

    Benowa / Ashmore Road corridor

    Material change of use application for a large mixed-use development at 203 Ashmore Road comprising 413 multiple dwellings alongside retail, office, health care services, indoor sport & recreation, and food & drink outlets. This is a preliminary approval variation request indicating a significant urban intensification project.

    Investor note

    A 413-dwelling development signals substantial residential growth and population consolidation in Benowa. The inclusion of complementary commercial, health, and recreation uses indicates precinct-scale investment designed to support a growing local demographic. This scale of development typically drives capital growth in surrounding residential areas and attracts further commercial investment.
