LONGWARRY STRUCTURE PLAN - FUTURE GROWTH CORRIDOR
Located on the town boundary and forming part of the broader Longwarry Structure Plan, the property is positioned within a designated future growth area identified for residential expansion and township development (STCA).
The Longwarry Structure Plan outlines:
• Planned residential growth to accommodate increasing population demand
• Expansion of township boundaries
• Improved road networks and infrastructure connectivity
• Provision for future community facilities and services
• Strengthening of Longwarry as a key growth node within the Baw Baw Shire corridor
With continued population growth across South-East Melbourne and strong demand for regional lifestyle living, Longwarry is strategically positioned for long-term expansion due to its:
• Direct freeway connectivity to Melbourne
• Proximity to Pakenham and Warragul growth corridors
• Access to rail transport and established township amenities
This positioning creates enormous potential for:
• Strategic land banking
• Future residential subdivision (STCA)
• Staged development opportunities
• Holding income-producing equine operations while planning future projects

• Four additional residences
• Mains water
• Extensive laneway systems
• Significant infrastructure

This creates the possibility of securing a substantial landholding in a rapidly expanding regional growth corridor.
