Creating the next places Australians will call home
A property developer building Australia’s next residential and lifestyle communities
A different way to
develop land
At LS Development Group, we develop land with discipline and deliver projects with care. From residential subdivisions to land lease communities, every site we shape is built to last beyond the moment we hand it over.
LS Development Group is a property developer with a clear focus. Residential land and development projects with strong fundamentals, often on sites the broader market overlooks. We're selective about where we develop and disciplined about how. Every project is built to perform across market cycles and held to a standard we're proud to put our name on.
Acquisition and Planning
Every project starts with the right site. Our acquisition strategy combines direct landowner relationships, deep market knowledge, and disciplined feasibility, ensuring every site we secure has the fundamentals to perform now and over the long term.
Development Management
From first feasibility to final handover, we manage every project with the same care. Disciplined delivery, transparent reporting and hands-on involvement at every stage, focused on outcomes that hold up long after we leave site.
Syndicates and Joint Ventures
We collaborate where it counts. Through syndicates and joint ventures, we partner with capital partners and aligned developers to combine strengths, share risk and deliver projects that benefit every party involved.
Why our approach works
At LS Development Group, discipline is built into every decision we make. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
Experience that delivers
Our team draws on experience from ASX-listed developers and national construction firms, having delivered masterplanned communities, mixed-use precincts and industrial subdivisions. We collaborate with trusted partners, including Collectiv Group, across residential, modular and commercial sectors.
Local knowledge, national reach
Our team has deep knowledge of the Adelaide and South Australian property markets, with growing reach across Australia. We understand local trends, zoning, planning, and growth patterns at a level only local operators can.
Strategy first
Every project starts with a clear strategy. We assess each opportunity against long-term market fundamentals, not short-term returns, so every site we commit to is positioned to perform across market cycles.
Decisions grounded in numbers
Our internal feasibility platform supports detailed site analysis and modelling, helping us and our partners make faster, more confident decisions. Every project we commit to is grounded in real numbers from day one.
Built to last
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of design, delivery, and sustainability. Every project we take on reflects our commitment to creating lasting value for investors, communities, and the people who’ll call these places home.
The right approach, every time
Every site, every site partner and every project is different. We tailor our approach to the specifics of each opportunity, whether that’s the acquisition strategy, the delivery model, or how we structure the deals.
Different sites, different sectors,
one disciplined approach
Whatever the sector, we apply the same fundamentals: strong sites, considered planning, and a focus on creating places that hold their value and their appeal for decades.
Commercial
This proposed 5-lot subdivision is located in the peaceful coastal setting of Goolwa North. With full services planned—including connection to the regional Flowvac vacuum sewer network
Our Project
A growing portfolio across South Australia, spanning residential subdivisions, land lease, and tourism. Sites we’ve completed, sites in delivery, and a pipeline shaped for the next decade.
Goolwa North Project
Our first project, now sold out. A 5-lot residential subdivision in the peaceful coastal setting of Goolwa North, fully serviced with Flowvac sewer, water, electricity, and NBN, and delivered from acquisition to settlement in under two years.
Athelstone Project
An LS Development Group syndicate in Athelstone, 10km from the Adelaide CBD. Two existing titles reconfigured into seven, with six new community-titled lots created, the front dwelling retained, and mature trees preserved across an established eastern suburb.
Wellington Private Marina Project
In partnership with Collectiv Group. One of South Australia’s only private marinas reimagined as a modular tourism destination an hour from Adelaide, with a long-term residential opportunity held at the rear of the site
Ponderosa Project
In partnership with Collectiv Group. A 60-hectare landholding in the Hindmarsh Valley on the Fleurieu Peninsula, centred on a retained bluestone homestead. Six high-end pods approved and now in development, with walking trails set across the property.
Rivertone Project
Our first land lease community. A 2.5-hectare residential site in Riverton, planned as a 50-lot community for local downsizers and retirees, with further sites in the region under discussion.
