Selecting a block of land is a lot easier said than done. There is a lot to consider - size, orientation, slope, location, available services and of course price. Plus every man and his dog that you speak to has an opinion on what areas are good, not good etc. but in the end I had to choose what was right for me, my lifestyle and of course my budget.
I am very, very happy with my little piece of land and I know I made the right decision.
So all the details....
My block is 721 square meters, 15 meters wide by approx 48 meters deep = long and skinny.
The front of the block faces west, with the left side facing North.
My favorite feature of the block is the reserve at the rear with huge gumtrees and a small creek, which is actually just a water drainage area. I don't know about you but I'd much rather look out my back door to see gumtrees than looking at the back of a neighbours house, especially for a small block like mine.
All along my side of the street is vacant building lots with the other side being older established houses. My house will probably be the first built on my side of the street, which not ideal but not much I can do about that.
I'm so excited to see it all come together and see my house built there soon. I have a vision in my head and I know it will me amazing.
Wow that's a stunning backdrop to see
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely! there's lots of birds in the trees too which sound so pretty.
