A rare and strategically positioned commercial development site adjoining the Sugarworld Shopping Centre precinct in Edmonton, 13 kilometres south of Cairns CBD.
This 1.367-hectare parcel is the only known vacant site in the catchment zoned District Centre with code assessable Shopping Centre and Supermarket use — a position that cannot be replicated through rezoning or subdivision of surrounding land. Competing developers would face years of planning process and significant holding costs to achieve an equivalent outcome.
Edmonton sits inside the Queensland Government’s designated Southern Growth Corridor, with a primary trade area currently estimated at 33,100 people, projected to reach 56,300 by 2046 — an average annual growth rate of 2.6%. Location IQ analysis confirms active demand for at least two additional supermarkets within this specific catchment.
The site adjoins Coles Edmonton and Coles Express (Shell Service Station), with Sugarworld Shopping Centre, a Medical Centre, and McDonalds all within immediate proximity. The precinct attracts strong daily foot traffic from the surrounding residential catchment of Edmonton, Bentley Park, and Mount Sheridan.
Active sub-lot interest has been recorded from a Tier-1 QSR operator and a national car wash group, negotiating approximately 4,500sqm at $525/sqm — providing an incoming buyer with immediate margin relative to the whole-of-site acquisition price of $475/sqm.
Code assessable uses under the District Centre zone include (but are not limited to): Shopping Centre, Supermarket, Food and Drink Outlet, Childcare, Medical Centre, Office, Hardware and Trade Supplies, Residential Care Facility, Multiple Dwelling, and Aged Care.
The property is offered for sale by Expression of Interest at $5,750,000 + GST as part of a two-site NQ portfolio. Vendor requires settlement no later than 1 July 2026. Individual sale will be considered — contact agents for details.
