Browse Forums Building A New House Re: help:Boundary Fencing set back requirement,Alamanda,Carlisle 3Sep 06, 2009 11:10 am sparkling However, I read the Alamanda Design Guidelines today and realise that Alamanda requires 1 meter set back for each side of the house, plus the 11.30 meter, which means i need at least 13.50 to build the house. I am start to worry that Alamanda wont allow me to leave just 20cm and 1m set back. My design guideline say nothing of this at all. We are building on a 16m block with Carlisle (Riverton 30) we have a 200mm setout from the garage side boundry and 1.6m from the other side boundry. If I were you however I'd rather build the garage right on the side boundry - wish we had done this before we completed tender etc what is the purpose of having 20cm beside the garage other than a place for spiders to spin webs Re: help:Boundary Fencing set back requirement,Alamanda,Carlisle 4Sep 06, 2009 12:15 pm I agree with above. I think that you should put the garage on the boundary. The 200mm of space is not going to serve any other purpose than to collect rubbish, rats, spiders, etc... Hopefully my neighbours don't do this!!! You would be better off having usable space on the other side of the house. Carlisle told us we could only have the garage on the boundary or 1m between the garage and the fence. We asked for 0.9m I think (can't remember the purpose) but they wouldn't let us. All worked out fine though. Building Monaco32 with Carlisle Homes in Alamanda Estate 20/08/2010 - HANDOVER 24/8!!

I understand that build on the boundary will be good for the house, but where should I build the fence then. Will the neighbour complain? I will ring council on Monday to find out and might take you guys' advice. On alamanda guildline clause 11.0 Fencing, there is a diagram shows fence need set back 1 m from the building line. Re: help:Boundary Fencing set back requirement,Alamanda,Carlisle 6Sep 06, 2009 12:56 pm if you build on the boundary there is no fence next to the garage. It starts at the front and the back of the garage instead. Building Monaco32 with Carlisle Homes in Alamanda Estate 20/08/2010 - HANDOVER 24/8!!
