Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Stockland Elara at Marsden Park 1611Sep 14, 2016 12:46 am Hi , I am looking at land in Elara and in interested in a corner block lot . ( 17.5 m Width and 25 m Depth ) . I am new to Elara and new to House buying in Sydney . So wanted to cross check few details from any knowledgable users. 1) Can I know the set backs for corner lots . From the house design that they have on that lot I can see ( 3m on Back , 6.5 m on Front , 2.2 m on second street , 1 m on other side ) . This means I should not construct or build anything in that place . My building should leave on all sides the respective free or vacant side. Am I right in saying this . 2) What are fencing rules for corner blocks especially on primary frontage street and secondary street . I am little concerned if I will loose any of the land registered due to fencing on secondary street . Lets say if I my land is 435m , after the fencing I should have approx 435 m inside the fence as my land . As it is a corner block do I need to leave any of my registered land outside the fencing is my question 3) They said I have to go with Split Contract , first with land for Stocklands and Second with the builder . The land is ready for registration . Will I face any banking restrictions if it is a split contract. 4) Do you guys have any plans of the proposed k - 12 school . Say the entrance , parking entrances , exits , noice ..etc . My preferred lot is very near to the school . Wanted to know if some one has any view if we buy the lot opposite to the school due to crowd , noice , traffic and privacy related ? As I said I am new to buying and terminology ..etc Any help is much appreciated . Thanks Everyone and have a nice day .

If there are any links where I can find more information please do let me know. Thanks . Regards, SydSR Re: Stockland Elara at Marsden Park 1619Sep 14, 2016 7:19 pm Hi All , I have a question related to Corner Blocks in Elara . If any one knows any information , please do let me know . Say my Lot Size is 450 m . 15 w * 30 depth . 1) Due to the corner block I have to leave setbacks for the building to construct . I am fine with this and that make sense to protect the streets , views ..etc. 2) Finally I will be fencing my 3 sides after house completion . I have some conflict information for fencing for corner blocks . What I heard was as it is a corner block , I have to leave some of my land outside the fencing on the second street side ? Is this true ? Generally we will fence all sides till the boarder of our land limits . But what I heard was for corner blocks on the second street side fencing we have to leave some of our land outside the fence ( say 1 m or so ?) .If I do that my land becomes only 14 w * 30 depth where I will loose 30m of land due to this ? Is this correct ? I spoke with Stock Lands on this and they said conflicting information too . May be a in person discussion would be better with them not in phone call . Can some one who knows / have idea on this please reply . Looking forward for valuable suggestions / information . Thanks in advance for your positive consideration to reply. Regards, SydSR.
