A well-known holiday park metres from the shoreline has been sold.

The popular Golden Beach Holiday Park at 9 Onslow Street has changed hands after more than 100 inquiries from prospective buyers.

Colliers Sunshine Coast managing director Nick Dowling could not say who purchased it or how much it cost due to a confidentiality agreement.

But the 11,236sqm property has significant development potential in a growth suburb.

“It’s definitely in a prime location,” Mr Dowling said.

“It’s a very good strategic purchase for the buyers.”

The holiday park could be an ideal block for development.

It’s less than 100m from the Pumicestone Passage and is close to the Golden Beach Village.

Mr Dowling said the site, and the area in general, were highly regarded.

“A flat walk to the beach and the village really appeals,” he said.

“You don’t have to battle surf in the water either, so it’s a more attractive place for (younger and older people).”

The property is currently zoned for tourist accommodation and community facilities, with a height limit of about 18m.

The holiday park has 63 powered sites, a 12-room motel, two cabins, a three-bedroom caretaker’s house with attached reception, central amenities block, workshop and pool area.

It is the only holiday/caravan park at Golden Beach.

Mr Dowling said there were more than 100 inquiries about the property before its sale, which occurred seven months after it was put on the market.

Most of the inquiries came from South-East Queensland.

He previously told SCN that the previous owners, a Melbourne-based brother and sister, felt the time was right to sell.

“They have held it for more than 20 years and I just think they want to move on with their lives, in different directions,” he said.
