The 3273sqm site for sale on Harbour Boulevard, at the northern end of The Waterfront, Shell Cove, is earmarked for hotel or serviced apartments use.
Shell Cove is a joint development between Shellharbour City Council and Frasers Property Australia.
The mixed-use town centre, in which the new hotel is touted to play a central role, will also integrate residential, commercial and retail uses, a community centre, waterfront tavern and restaurant mix.
Shellharbour City Council and Frasers Property have appointed Colliers International to co-ordinate the sale of the hotel site via an Expressions of Interest campaign, which closes at 4pm on May 26.
In accordance with the Shell Cove master-plan, the successful purchaser of the site will develop a hotel or serviced apartment complex up to 11 storeys in height, to comprise at least 120 rooms with some residential capacity.
It will also include conference and function space, food and beverage and on-site car parking.
The site is positioned at the northern end of the town centre with views to the east and south overlooking the marina. It is anticipated the hotel or serviced apartment complex will open in 2022.
Shellharbour Mayor Marianne Saliba said the site is an opportunity to establish a new landmark in a tourism hotspot in surroundings of unmatched natural beauty.
“The potential for this unique site is limitless,” she said.
Glenn Colquhoun, development director – Shell Cove, Frasers Property Australia said in keeping with the cosmopolitan vibe being created at The Waterfront, the plan calls for an enticing food and beverage concept to be integrated with the new hotel or serviced apartment complex.
Meanwhile, space will also be set aside for conferences, functions and other community uses.
“Shell Cove is evolving to meet the needs of residents, the local community as well as the wider South Coast region, and this project will serve as another compelling reason for tourists to visit the community, and for business to invest here as well,” Mr Colquhoun said.
