Most-viewed: Indonesian Christ Family Church sparks developer interest
If you’re the owner of a sizeable block of land in and around Sydney right now, you’ll have no shortage of potential suitors should you choose to put it on the market.
Five of New South Wales’ top 10 most-viewed commercial properties over the past week – including the top three – are land/development sites, led by a prominent church venue in the city’s west.
The site of the Indonesia Christ Family Church in Regents Park is being offered to the market for the first time in more than two decades, and with a 1416sqm block but currently set up for religious gatherings and performances, it could suit both developers and other church groups keen on securing a major corner property.
The property at 14 Clapham Road and 24-26 Elaine Street features light industrial zoning, ground floor showroom area and full staff amenities throughout its 844sqm of building area. It will be auctioned on Thursday, November 19.
Here are the properties making waves nationally.
