Darebin Council proposes sale of discontinued road land

City of Darebin has issued a public notice for the proposed sale of land from a discontinued road adjoining 11 Charles St, Preston.

The council is seeking to dispose of the former road reserve land, which typically becomes available for sale to adjoining property owners when roads are formally discontinued. The land parcel is located adjacent to the existing property at 11 Charles St in Preston.

Discontinued road sales often present opportunities for property consolidation, allowing developers to increase lot sizes or create more viable development sites. The additional land can enhance development potential by providing greater site area, improved access, or better building envelope options.

For developers and investors, this represents a potential land acquisition opportunity in Preston's established residential area. The sale process will likely follow standard council procedures, with the adjoining property owner typically having first right of refusal.

Interested parties should contact City of Darebin directly for specific details about the land area, sale conditions, and application process. The council has not specified a closing date for expressions of interest in the public notice.
