• 15,969sqm (more or less) freehold landholding in the heart of Albany
• Business – Metropolitan Centre Zone / Albany Centre Sub-precinct A
• High-density residential and mixed-use potential, subject to consent
• Extensive prior design, consent and bulk-and-location material available
• Close to Westfield Albany, Albany Bus Station, Massey University, North Harbour Stadium and SH1
80 Don McKinnon Drive presents a substantial development-scale landholding in one of Auckland’s established metropolitan centres. Comprising approximately 15,969sqm (more or less), the property occupies an elevated and highly connected position between Don McKinnon Drive and the Northern Motorway, with profile, scale and amenity that are increasingly difficult to secure in Albany.
The planning framework provides a strong platform for intensification. Zoned Business – Metropolitan Centre and positioned within Albany Centre Sub-precinct A, the site sits in an area identified for high-density residential apartment living, with scope for supporting convenience retail and mixed-use activity at ground level, subject to the necessary approvals.
Purchasers will benefit from a substantial body of historic design and due diligence material, including prior residential consent documentation and bulk-and-location studies exploring apartment-led development outcomes. This provides a valuable starting point for developers, housing providers, build-to-rent operators, capital partners and land-bankers seeking to reassess the site against current market conditions.
The location is underpinned by established retail, education, recreation, employment and transport infrastructure. Westfield Albany, Albany Mega Centre, Albany Bus Station, Massey University and North Harbour Stadium are all within the wider Albany centre environment, while State Highway 1 access supports efficient movement across the North Shore and wider Auckland region.
Opportunities of this scale, zoning and location are limited. 80 Don McKinnon Drive warrants early consideration from parties seeking a significant Albany landholding with genuine density, mixed-use and long-term redevelopment potential.
