Titled sections with wastewater allocation

Titled residential sections with confirmed wastewater allocation are now available at Coolen Place, presenting a rare opportunity to secure development-ready land within an established township setting.

Held in the same family since the 1850s, this substantial landholding is being released to the market for the first time. Buyers have the flexibility to secure individual sections or multiple sites depending on their development or investment plans.

Comprising 6 fully titled sections averaging over 1,000sqm (more or less), the land is zoned MRZ2 - Medium Residential Zone 2 under the Waikato District Plan (minimum net site area generally around 400sqm, subject to council standards and servicing feasibility).

Tenders are invited for the purchase of one or more sections, allowing buyers the flexibility to secure individual sites or assemble a larger holding depending on their development plans.

The Fundamentals

• 6 existing freehold titles issued • Wastewater allocation confirmed for current titles • Generous 1,000sqm+ average lot sizes • MRZ2 - Medium Residential zoning • Established residential location • Opportunity to secure one or multiple sections • Potential gravity wastewater connection nearby (subject to confirmation)

Wastewater Capacity Confirmed

Recent confirmation from Waikato District Council infrastructure advisors indicates that each existing title has an individual wastewater connection allowance.

This significantly enhances the development potential of the property.

Subject to confirming a gravity connection to the existing wastewater network in Thorn Road or Coolen Place, the current titles may allow building to commence without needing to wait for wider network upgrades affecting the area.

This presents a rare opportunity for builders, developers or investors to secure titled residential land with wastewater allocation already recognised by Council.

Purchasers are encouraged to undertake their own due diligence regarding connection design, levels, final servicing requirements and development contribution costs.

Development Potential

Professional planning discussions suggest the land may also support future reconfiguration through boundary adjustments, potentially allowing smaller compliant lots (circa 400sqm) to be created in accordance with MRZ2 zoning provisions, subject to council approvals.

This provides flexibility for buyers looking to:

• Build immediately on larger sections • Landbank for future development • Reconfigure titles over time (subject to approvals)

Rare Opportunity in an Established Location

Sections of this scale and zoning within an established township location are increasingly difficult to secure.

Whether you are a builder seeking a project site, a developer assembling land for future stages, or an investor looking to secure land within a growth corridor, Coolen Place presents a compelling opportunity.

We start from the council's rating valuation, move it by how sales in the area have moved since against their own council values, then by how properties like this one, nearby sales have done against the same arithmetic. Each step is an average of real sales. Tested every month against sales we had not seen: half land within about 6% of our estimate, and about 8 in 10 within the range. This is an automated estimate, not a registered valuation.
