Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Aug 11, 2020 10:51 pm Hi, just wanting peoples thoughts on the size of my backyard. Had my house sited on my block and one side of the house will be 12m from back wall to rear fence and the other side with the alfresco will be 10m to the rear fence. I think its on the small side, but because blocks are so small these days most people are saying its a big yard.. i laugh every time someone says its a big yard.. What are your thoughts?
