The 133ha property at 732 Fyansford-Gheringhap Rd, Gheringhap, offers a rare commercial and industrial development site with scale on the western gateway to Geelong's growth corridor.
“Gheringhap sits at a critical interface between Geelong and the major growth areas of Bannockburn and Batesford, making it a natural extension point for future development.
“Golden Plains Shire has consistently identified Gheringhap as a long-term employment and infrastructure precinct, particularly for larger, land-intensive uses that can’t be easily accommodated within urban Geelong.”
There is a 1.6km frontage to Fyansford–Gheringhap Rd and more than 1.1km to the Midland Highway.
It’s 8km from the Geelong Ring Road, 14km from the Port of Geelong and 27km from Avalon Airport and next to a Powercor substation.
The landholding is immediately west of Batesford and close to Bannockburn, where further residential expansion is being planned.
Mr McIntosh said the property provides the opportunity to unlock value through highway-oriented commercial and restricted retail uses, such as large format showrooms and service-based retail that complement the surrounding employment precinct.
“This is a location where commercial uses can grow alongside industrial activity, forming a highly visible and functional gateway employment hub for Geelong,” Mr McIntosh said.
Mr Saunders said greater Geelong is experiencing a tightening supply of zoned industrial land, particularly for sites that offer genuine scale.
“This property stands out as a long-term industrial land banking opportunity, aligned with the structure plan and supported by freight connectivity essential for logistics, warehousing and service industrial users.”
The farming property is supported by two short-term leases with flexible exit provisions.
