Shellharbour Rezoning: 5,700 New Homes For Shellharbour

 The NSW Government is fast-tracking two major rezonings in Shellharbour, unlocking approximately 5,700 new homes, creating jobs, and transforming the region.

With the Illawarra-Shoalhaven set to be NSW’s fastest-growing region, these rezonings will bring housing, jobs, and infrastructure closer to hospitals, schools, and transport.

The proposal includes:

Shellharbour City Centre – 5,000 Homes 

Redevelopment of former Shellharbour Hospital and TAFE sites

Mix of low, mid-rise, and high-density housing

New parks, walkable streets, and proximity to Shellharbour Hospital

 

New Shellharbour Hospital Precinct – 700 Homes 

Medium to high-density housing, supporting key workers

Shops and health services
