Riverside Road, Great Yarmouth
Prime Development Opportunity – Land at Riverside Road, Gorleston

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial and prominently positioned development site on Riverside Road in the heart of Gorleston-on-Sea. Extending across a significant area within an established business park, this rare parcel of land offers outstanding potential for a landmark scheme in one of the area’s most active and evolving locations.

Strategically situated just minutes from the town centre, the site enjoys convenient access to a wide range of local amenities, shops and services. Excellent transport connections are provided via the nearby A47, linking directly to Great Yarmouth, Norwich and beyond, making the location highly attractive for both residential and commercial occupiers and developers.

The site benefits from two separate access points, from Riverside Road and Dock Tavern Lane, allowing flexibility in layout and design. Its sought-after riverside position, with the eastern boundary running along the picturesque River Yare, provides an opportunity to create a premium waterside development with attractive views and strong market appeal.

Identified under Policy URB9 within the local development plan, the land previously had approved planning permission for a mixed-use scheme, including a minimum of 100 residential dwellings to meet strong local housing demand, alongside a designated employment area to the north suitable for light industrial units, offices or other commercial uses. With clear policy support for high-quality, well-planned development, the site offers considerable scope for a thoughtfully designed riverside community or an integrated residential and commercial scheme.

With Gorleston experiencing continued growth and investment, strong demand for both housing and business space, and excellent infrastructure already in place, this is a compelling opportunity for developers and investors to deliver a signature project in a thriving and well-connected coastal community.
