Darcy says the buyers don’t have immediate plans for the Industrial 1-zoned site, but could look at a redevelopment in the medium term.

“By virtue of its geographic position at the very northern point of Belmont, it’s close to the main arterials of Settlement and Barwon Heads roads.

“It’s a pivotal and central spot and very tightly held.”
