With potential to redevelop up to 18 levels, the property represents an attractive opportunity to capitalise on the ongoing transformation of Burswood.

It is a sizeable parcel with excellent development scope positioned in a tranquil parkland setting with magnificent vistas across the Swan River to the city.
