Large-Scale City Fringe Development Site Hits the Market on Beaufort Street

A rare and highly strategic development opportunity has been brought to market with the launch of 90 Beaufort Street, Perth, a substantial 1,523sqm city fringe landholding positioned on the doorstep of the Perth CBD and the newly opened Edith Cowan University Perth City Campus.


Offered for sale via Expression of Interest closing Wednesday 20 May 2026, the property presents an opportunity for investors and developers to secure a significant site within one of Perth’s most dynamic and rapidly evolving inner-city precincts.


The property features an expansive 30.28-metre frontage to Beaufort Street, flexible City Centre zoning, and development parameters supporting a broad range of residential, commercial and mixed-use outcomes, subject to approval. With no prescribed height limit and a plot ratio of up to 4:1, the site is well suited to a landmark development in a precinct underpinned by strong long-term fundamentals.


Colliers’ Shane Isaacs and Knight Frank’s Jonathan Wong have been jointly appointed to market the property.


Located approximately 400 metres from the Perth CBD, the site is within walking distance of the ECU Perth City Campus, the Northbridge entertainment precinct, major public transport connections, and a wide range of retail, hospitality and commercial amenity.


The arrival of ECU’s city campus, which is expected to bring more than 9,000 students and staff into the CBD, is already generating increased interest in surrounding precincts, particularly for sites suited to residential, student accommodation and build-to-rent development.


Perth’s city fringe market continues to see strong demand, supported by population growth, limited supply of large-scale development sites, and renewed confidence in the CBD and inner-city residential market. Large contiguous landholdings of this scale remain tightly held, positioning 90 Beaufort Street as a standout offering.


Shane Isaacs | Manager of Colliers Investment Services, said the property represented an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a major development site on the edge of the CBD.


“Large landholdings of this scale, so close to the Perth CBD, are becoming exceptionally difficult to secure,” Mr Isaacs said.


“With its substantial site area, prominent Beaufort Street frontage and flexible planning controls, the property offers genuine long-term upside for developers looking to capitalise on the continued evolution of Perth’s inner-city market.”


Jonathan Wong | Associate Director of Knight Frank, said the opening of the ECU Perth City Campus had further strengthened the appeal of the precinct.


“The proximity to the ECU Perth City Campus has helped reshape demand in this location,” Mr Wong said.


“We are seeing strong interest from local and offshore groups seeking opportunities for residential, student accommodation and mixed-use development, reflecting growing confidence in Perth’s city fringe market and the long-term strength of this precinct.”


The property is offered for sale by Expression of Interest, closing at 3.00pm (AWST) on Wednesday 20 May 2026.
