20 townhouse development application plans at 71-83 Coronation Road Hillcrest Queensland

Delivering Well-Planned Medium Density Housing

Growing communities require a diverse housing mix that balances affordability, liveability and efficient land use. Townhouse developments play an important role in providing housing choice while making effective use of existing infrastructure and services.

DA Plan was engaged to prepare Development Application (DA) plans for a proposed 20 townhouse development at 71–83 Coronation Road, Hillcrest. The project involved the redevelopment of a strategically located site to deliver a modern multiple dwelling community comprising 20 three-bedroom townhouses with associated parking, landscaping and communal infrastructure.
