Regards, MK Yes, our builder has done it before applying for construction certificate Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1344Nov 10, 2020 9:32 pm Hello friends. I am new here. Just doing some research on dual occupancy and landed here. Does any one know if Bardia or surrounding areas have dual occupancy options by combining multiple land block or on a large block of land? Sorry for the stupid question. TIA. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1346Nov 29, 2020 10:38 am Hello All, Trust everyone doing well and staying safe. I am shopping around for plantation shutters. Please let me know if you know someone who can do the job for a decent price. Many thanks. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1347Jan 07, 2021 1:00 pm Hi all, new to this forum and I've never built before so pretty terrified! Like most people I’d like a big land and a dream house for my family, I’m interested in New Breeze in Bardia so would appreciate any information here. I’m getting conflicting messages but I’ve been told that 2-3 of the quarter acre lots at the very back of the estate are still available, given how big these are and how -relatively- cheap (per sq m in comparison to the other lots), how come they’re still available? I understand that half the lot is E2 so I basically can’t build anything there but I think it’ll be fun for the kids? I also realise they have a higher BAL but so is most of the estate - what am I missing here that makes most buyers avoid these lots?

Backs on to the highway that’s why they are ridiculously cheap Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1349Jan 07, 2021 1:43 pm Thanks so much for responding so quickly - can you please just help expand that for me please? Why is that a bad thing, is it the noise - anything else? Does that eventually have an effect on the integrity of the structure? Is it a bad investment in the long term? Would the house get too dusty? Is it a security risk? Like I said I’m not really a real estate expert and just trying to understand the caveats!

I also realise they have a higher BAL but so is most of the estate - what am I missing here that makes most buyers avoid these lots? Backs on to the highway that’s why they are ridiculously cheap Most definitely the noise is the main issue by far. How many people would want there house to be less then 100m from the M5 highway? I think you should go for a walk on those blocks of land to see for yourself just how noisy it is that way you will be more informed to make a decision. Other issue why the quarter acres blocks are cheap as you mentioned is the BAL rating which obviously adds to construction costs, the houses that are built/under construction are massive homes on those lots so the extra cost for the BAL to make it comply would also increase more then your typical house if you are planning on building a massive home. From what I see there they look at least 50sqm homes in my opinion. Then you have resale value when you/if decide to sell your pool of buyers obviously is going to decrease sharply as it’s undesirable to live behind a highway. All of the above is my opinions anyway some people might have other views Hope I was able to help Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1351Jan 08, 2021 8:43 am Moe79 Thanks so much for responding so quickly - can you please just help expand that for me please?

Backs on to the highway that’s why they are ridiculously cheap The noise is significant and disturbing. Imagine being in same room as a lawnmower running. You will end up playing loud music in your house all the time especially when you have visitors . You could put in expensive acoustics throughout the house provided you never open windows. Look at new proposed lots in Bardia alongside Campbelltown road or in Denham Court. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1352Jan 08, 2021 8:40 pm Hey guys, for anyone who needs information on the qauter acre lots. Bal rating is slightly higher however does not affect your construction or the cost. For the noise, you cannot hear anything when your inside your house, however if you open your windows, yes you hear it slightly. However I was renting on McDonald road before and it was 10 times louder there, especially those cars with those sh1tty exhausts trying to make there car sound like a v8 when it’s not. Whoever drives with a car like that please do yourself a favour and stop embarrassing yourself with your lemon car. Ok moving on... the cost is cheap because the bigger the block, the lower the sqm charge is. This is why the really smaller blocks are way overpriced, almost $2,000 a sqm. The lots are zoned E4 which is environmental living, meaning you can do whatever you want within the first 50% of the lot with DA approval of course. However the rear is denoted L and cannot be modified and must remain natural. However you can clean it up and do whatever you want aslong as you don’t: construct, cut trees, change the level of the natural ground level. Other than this you can do what you want. With the water easement, you can fence over it however the lower part of your fence must be 300mm wire or mesh to allow for draining. Land rates are about $500 per qauter. Anymore questions ask away. Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1353Jan 08, 2021 9:21 pm That’s awesome Hassan! What’s your BAL rating? Also really good to know that the rates are about $500 a quarter! I was nervous it’ll be a lot more My current property is very close to Camden Valley way and I feel it’s a lot louder but I haven’t spent enough time at New Breeze so appreciated your input here I think those were all of my questions for now many many thanks for taking the time to respond.

Re: Building at Bardia - New Breeze 1354Jan 09, 2021 7:13 am Hey Hassan, you mentioned you can do whatever you want within the first 50% of the land, so does that mean if your land is 1000 sq. meters you can build - theoretically - on the first 500 sq. meters from Bruce Ferguson avenue?

Thanks Hasan Could you please tell whats the size of your house in squares including granny flat? And did they find any rocks or anything when digging in the piers for the slab? and the approx site cost you had to pay.
