2A Langton Road, Mount Barker WA 6324

Positioned in the heart of Mount Barker's established town centre, this approximately 275sqm corner site presents an exciting opportunity for an owner occupier, investor, business operator or developer looking to secure a highly visible commercial holding in the Great Southern.

Currently identified as Commercial zoned land, the property occupies a prominent corner position close to the Mount Barker post office, grocery shopping and the town's wider mix of retail, professional and community services. Mount Barker is approximately 50 kilometres north of Albany and acts as an important service centre for the surrounding Great Southern region.

What makes this property particularly interesting is the opportunity to explore how such a compact corner site could be better utilised. The Shire's broader planning strategy supports the ongoing development and redevelopment of Mount Barker's commercial centre, including additional office space, infill development and revitalisation of existing commercial sites.

Subject to all necessary planning, building and other approvals, purchasers may wish to investigate a range of potential commercial or mixed-use concepts. Possibilities could include professional offices, consulting rooms, boutique retail, studio space, hospitality or other commercial uses, while a carefully designed two-storey development incorporating commercial accommodation below and another use above may also warrant investigation.

The property's corner position and irregular configuration provide an opportunity for an architect or designer to create something unique, taking advantage of multiple street-facing elevations, natural light and exposure while making efficient use of the relatively compact landholding.

For buyers with a longer-term outlook, there is also an interesting planning backdrop. The Shire has progressed proposed amendments to its planning framework which include changes relating to housing, commercial uses and increased residential density within the Mount Barker townsite. These changes should not be relied upon as providing any particular development right, but they reinforce the broader focus on encouraging appropriately located development within the town
