Just when you thought there were no more blocks left to buy in Derby we found one more.. and what a block! Not only is it a fabulous block in a great location, but if you hate red tape, (and let’s face it – who doesn’t) then this is the one for you! Many of the the council hoops that you will face in order to set up visitor accommodation have already been jumped through, saving you both time and consulting fee money.

Located with dual access from both Charles Street and Mulhern Street, this 2057m2 elevated block is zoned Village for a variety of uses (STCA) and takes in outstanding views across Derby. With a view to building visitor accommodation, the site already has the following completed:

Derby is home to the Blue Derby Trails which is widely recognised as Australia’s mountain biking capital, confirmed by the recent announcement of the returning Enduro World Series (EWS) to be held in March 2019. The last EWS in 2017 saw over 5000 visitors last time it was held and has added to the continued success of the visitor numbers to the area.

Derby is 34 km from Scottsdale and 95 km to Launceston. According to local Council (Dorset) who track visitor numbers, 30,000 visitors rode the trails last year and approximately 50,000 are expected next year. Tourism is booming in North East Tassie with Internationally ranked Barnbougle and Lost Farm Golf courses, wineries and mountain bike trails on our doorstep. There is a growing demand for a variety of accommodation in the area, for the tourism trade as well as to support the increasing population of staff working within the industry.

There is still a high demand for visitor accommodation, so don’t hesitate as this could be one of the last vacant blocks to become available. Write your own success story!
