Berry, NSW

Residential development site with DA approval pending

The Loan is secured by first registered mortgage over a 12.895ha future residential development site in Berry, NSW, approximately 113km south of the Sydney CBD.

The Security Property is located on the western periphery of Berry, with surrounding development comprising modern residential dwellings on conventional allotments to the north and west, and undeveloped rural land to the south.

Berry is a historic rural village popular for its colonial buildings and proximity to Sydney, and the nearby beachside township of Shoalhaven Heads. Berry provides a number of public schools, a train station, an IGA supermarket, multiple cafés and retail strip shopping.

The site is zoned part ‘R2 Low Density Residential’ and part ‘RU1 Primary Production’. A Development Application (DA) was lodged in October 2022 to create 118 residential lots and one (1) drainage reserve lot across five (5) stages. The Borrower's town planner has provided written advice to confirm the application is generally consistent with state legislation and statutory town planning provisions.

The land has been cleared and is gently undulating. There are no apparent environmental or drainage issues and the site is in close proximity to services. As such, it is well suited to development.

The Loan is anticipated to be repaid from refinance of the site into construction.

The Borrower Group is an experienced residential land developer, having completed a number of land subdivisions in the greater Sydney region. The developer is supported by an experienced and long-term management team.

The Borrower Group is well known to the Manager and has a strong financial position.
