220 Northbourne Avenue

The premises are presently occupied by "220 Northbourne Ave Parking" and operate as a parking business. The operation is listed as operational.

Land adjoining Northbourne Avenue is zoned to permit redevelopment of up to 25 metres (approximately 8 storeys) high flats, or 32 metres (about 11 storeys) at the corners of Wakefield Avenue with Northbourne Avenue. This provides flexibility for mixed‑use or higher‑density projects if desired.

The site is 0.1 km from the Macarthur Avenue light‑rail station, 0.5 km from the Ipima Street Metro station, and within 1 km of a bus shelter at Cowper Street. It also sits on the major arterial Northbourne Avenue, offering strong road connectivity.

Within a 0.2–0.7 km radius are several hotels (Mantra MacArthur, Deco Hotel, Pavilion on Northbourne, Canberra Rex Hotel) and the commercial strip along Mort and Lonsdale streets, providing a steady flow of visitors and employees who may require parking. Nearby parks such as Haig Park and Rugby Park also attract daytime users.

Situated on Northbourne Avenue, the property benefits from direct access to a major Canberra thoroughfare. Proximity to light‑rail stations and bus routes further enhances accessibility for drivers and passengers.

While Braddon contains several heritage‑listed precincts, the specific site at 220 Northbourne Avenue is not identified as heritage‑listed. Current zoning allows for redevelopment, so planning considerations focus on meeting the permitted height and use standards.
