Medical centre at Forresters Beach

How the new medical centre will look

The pharmacist owner of a property in Forresters Beach local shopping centre plans to upgrade the property with a surgery and shop-top housing.

The proposal is to develop a medical centre alongside the existing pharmacy and build two residential units above at 21 Forresters Beach Rd which is surrounded by other retail and commercial premises and houses behind.

The application says that the development could be considered alterations and additions as there will not be any demolition other than some minor work at the rear of the building for landscaping and carparking.

The DA (364/2024) says the aim is to bring greater facilities and services to the local area and some needed housing choice and diversity.

It is on public exhibition on Central Coast Council’s website until May 13.
