A $7.8 million development site at Bundoora has been sold by Savills International at 33 Janefield Drive.

It last sold at $5.5 million in 2010.

The 1.64 hectare site has zoning which allows for a range of uses, including townhouses, apartments and student accommodation.

The current permit allows for 45 luxury townhouses within proximity of the University Hill Town Centre.

Given its proximity to the wetlands it was marketed as offering water views, something of a rare Melbourne marketing option.

Elsewhere in Bundoora, Dealcorp has onsold parts of the former Larundel Hospital site, including the Woolworths and Dan Murphy stores for $22.5 million reflecting a 7 per cent yield.
