Ballina Shire Council will auction six residential lots in the picturesque village of Wollongbar, offering a rare opportunity for families and investors to secure land in a well-connected, fast-growing community.

The lots located on Avalon Avenue will go to public auction on Wednesday, 6 August 2025, and range in size from 600m² to 820m², with all blocks registered and ready for immediate construction.

“These blocks offer the ideal foundation to build a home in a location that ticks all the boxes – lifestyle, location and community,” said Paul Tsikleas, Manager Commercial Services at Ballina Shire Council.

“This important project supports our community’s growing housing needs by unlocking well-located land for new homes, while also providing a revenue stream to sustain Council operations,” said Paul.

Lifestyle, location and regional connection

Ballina Shire Mayor Sharon Cadwallader says Wollongbar continues to grow in popularity thanks to its welcoming community, peaceful setting and convenient access to everyday essentials.

“Wollongbar offers the best of both worlds – a relaxed village atmosphere with great local amenities and quick access to surrounding towns. It’s a wonderful place to raise a family, stay connected to the region, and enjoy a balanced lifestyle,” Mayor Cadwallader said.

The neighbourhood is home to Wollongbar Public School, a local TAFE campus, preschools, sporting fields, shops and a popular local tavern. A new childcare facility is also proposed, adding further appeal for young families. Wollongbar District Park is a short stroll away and features modern recreational facilities for active lifestyles.

Positioned between Lismore and Ballina, Wollongbar residents enjoy easy access to Alstonville and the broader region, including Ballina Byron Gateway Airport, making it ideal for commuting, travel or visiting family and friends.

“With a growing sense of community, scenic surrounds and everything families need close by, it’s no surprise Wollongbar is becoming a sought-after place to call home,” Mayor Cadwallader said.
