Selling Property in Greenslopes' Medical Precinct
🏥 Selling Property in Greenslopes' Medical Precinct
How to Leverage Location, Zoning and Strategic Demand in Brisbane’s Leading Health District
By Norton’s Real Estate – Zoning-Aware Agents Specialising in Brisbane's Medical-Use Hotspots
📍 Introduction: Why Greenslopes Is a Healthcare Property Magnet
Greenslopes isn’t just a leafy, inner-south suburb with great infrastructure. It’s also home to one of the most recognised medical hubs in Queensland — Greenslopes Private Hospital.
In 2025, properties within walking distance or zoning proximity to the hospital have become prime real estate for medical professionals, healthcare tenants, and specialist investors.
With growing demand for:
Specialist clinics
Allied health suites
Mixed-use residential/consulting conversions
Health-focused investment properties
…homes and land in and around the Greenslopes Medical Precinct are now viewed through a dual lens:
🏡 “Is this a beautiful home in a great area?”
🏥 “Or is this a strategic site for long-term medical value?”
For some properties, it’s both — and that’s where your opportunity as a seller begins.
🏥 The Greenslopes Private Hospital Precinct (NPP-002)
Under the Coorparoo and Districts Neighbourhood Plan, Brisbane City Council has designated a specific zoning area known as:
NPP-002 – Greenslopes Private Hospital Precinct
This zoning overlay is designed to encourage the growth of:
Community health care
Medical services
Allied health tenancies
Small-scale consulting suites
Purpose-built health hubs
In fact, Brisbane City Council has publicly promoted this corridor as a “key health precinct for Brisbane’s south” — specifically calling out the Greenslopes Medical Precinct project as a strategic hub for investment, planning and infrastructure.
✅ DA Approval Spotlight: 68–72 Hunter Street
To prove how serious this zoning is:
In early 2024, a development application for 68–72 Hunter Street (just opposite Greenslopes Private Hospital) was approved for:
A community care centre
An integrated healthcare service
Built to support growing demand for local health infrastructure
The decision referenced:
The NPP-002 precinct code
Zoning compatibility for medical service use
Brisbane City Council’s long-term planning vision for Greenslopes
💬 This DA approval shows that medical-use zoning isn’t hypothetical — it’s being implemented and approved today.
🧭 What Sellers in the Precinct Need to Know
If your property is within or adjacent to this medical precinct, you may have options beyond standard residential sale.
Norton’s helps sellers determine:
Question | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
Is my property zoned for medical use? | Medical buyers often pay more for zoning certainty |
Can it be adapted for healthcare tenancy? | Investors need conversion options |
Is the land better sold for redevelopment? | May suit health hub builders (STCA) |
Is there dual appeal (home + medical)? | Can attract two buyer types = higher price |
What is the access, frontage and parking like? | Essential for compliance and layout feasibility |
We walk sellers through their options — from standard sale, to medical-use leaseback, to off-market campaigns for health investors.
🔍 Who Buys in the Greenslopes Medical Precinct?
Buyer Type | Motivation |
|---|---|
Allied health professionals | Own and operate (e.g. physio, osteo, psych) |
Specialist medical tenants | Walk-to-hospital practices |
Health-focused investors | Rent out as rooms or full-service suites |
SMSFs or doctors' groups | Buy and hold long-term in precinct |
Mixed-use developers | Build clinics + consulting hubs |
Dual-purpose lifestyle buyers | Live upstairs, consult downstairs |
This is not a speculative buyer pool. These buyers are:
📈 ROI focused
🧑⚕️ Professionally aligned with the location
🧾 Often pre-qualified and working with planners
💬 Ready to pay premium rates for zoning certainty
🛡️ Norton’s Role: Seller-Side Guidance, Not Guesswork
Selling a home or site in a medical precinct is not a standard sale.
Here’s how Norton’s protects your upside:
1. Zoning & Overlay Confirmation
We provide a zoning snapshot of your property, including NPP-002 status or proximity to its border.
2. Medical Feasibility Discussion
We assess your site’s frontage, access, parking and adaptability.
3. Buyer Profile Strategy
We identify which buyer pool(s) to target — and how to maximise price tension between them.
4. Off-Market or Discreet Campaign Options
Some professionals don’t want public listings. We offer off-market reach into verified healthcare buyer networks.
5. Compliance-First Sales Process
We ensure any current tenancy (residential or commercial) is disclosed properly, with documentation ready.
💰 Price Ranges We’re Seeing
Property Type | Sale Price (Indicative Range) |
|---|---|
Residential house near hospital | $1.2M–$1.5M |
Zoned lot with redevelopment scope | $1.4M–$1.8M+ (depending on frontage + DA) |
Dual-living with medical potential | $1.3M–$1.6M |
Existing medical-use building | $1.5M–$2.2M+ (fit-out + leaseback potential) |
Pricing is not just about bedrooms and bathrooms — it’s about what the zoning and location enable.
🏡 Can You Still Sell to Residential Buyers?
Yes — and Norton’s often targets both markets simultaneously.
In many cases, homes appeal to:
Families wanting to live in a vibrant, walkable suburb
Investors looking for high-demand rental pockets
Professionals who may convert later, but live in the home short term

🧱 Preparing Your Property for a Medical-Oriented Sale
Even if your home isn't currently used for health services, there are steps you can take to position it well:
Step | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
Tidy and stage key entry points | Visual appeal for walk-in clients |
Provide clear site and floorplan | Investors assess flow + compliance potential |
Parking layout overview | Vital for medical compliance |
Noise and privacy considerations | Acoustic separation can be a selling point |
Lease disclosure (if tenanted) | Buyers need to understand settlement flexibility |
We help sellers prepare legally and visually — so your property appeals to both live-in buyers and professional investors.
