29A Keith Crescent

Smiths Lake NSW 2428

Nearly all homes are owner occupied homes in Keith Crescent.

The land has been cleared with the initial cut and fill excavation done with a DA approved for a 2 storey home. I have done many residential development builds and my initial vision for this property was to put 4 x 40-foot shipping containers with another 4 stacked on top of them. Then get an angle grinder and cut those shipping containers into a large family home. One of my builder friends said I was mad and so did my engineer. They argue that by default shipping containers being only 2.4 meters wide are "impractical." Obviously many of us have seen shipping container homes work functionally so it is doable, but my extremely experienced builder friend and engineer are not fans. The build does not "have" to be built using shipping containers but that was my original vision when lodging the DA.
A single level home would be far simpler; more cost effective but obviously not as big a home. I have a sketch of what I would build if I was to keep it.
The DA was approved as a FZ bushfire rating which in simple terms (and it's not simple) but in simple terms the home has to be built out of non flammable materials (Steel/Concrete/ Fibrous cement/ Stone).

The property has an 8m x 2.5m tiny house/shed on it near the rear boundary with power and town water connected. Some have asked me if this is approved? In this area a property is allowed 2 x 20m square sheds without approval but it will need to be cladded in FC sheet or something similar for fire protection. The shed is fully cladded internally with 15mm plywood. It's rough (no face finishes yet) but the bones of it is done and it's functional. It's a great weekender as it is.

Rates and water supply charge are bunbled into one fee per quarter is currently $659 and water usage is charged separately. I don't use the water much. The last charge was $19 for the quarter.

The sewer is on the site, but the shed is yet to be connected to it but it is easily accessible.

There is a survey included and is in the photos.

The photos of the sunset are literally at the end of the street 500 steps away from the land.
