We are still waiting for council seal the plans so we can lodge to the titles office. 

Council has requested further information from us which we have provided, further we await council engineers to review all necessary documents to finalise plans sealing. 

Depending on councils further queries and processing times we anticipate plans to be sealed in June and titles to fall in June. 

Another update will be provided upon Plans Sealing being released.

Site access is possible any time via foot through the temporary fencing. 

We also have ‘As Constructed Plans’ finalised which the builders will require – please find here at this link.

Somerfield Estate Western Precinct
Currently in Phase 7 & 8.

Phase 1

Plans & Permits 

This primary phase involves Council and Authority acceptance to confirm physical works may be allowed to commence at the site,
often referred to as a development approval

Phase 2

Earthworks 

This is when the machinery comes in and involves civil preparation of the site to achieve the final design. This included site scraping, shaping the existing ground, and construction of retaining walls if required

Phase 3

Sewer & Drainage

The essential infrastructural of the future community are laid down here, connecting every lot to the sewerage waste and water systems

Phase 4

Road Boxing / Kerb and Channel 

Here we see things really start to come together as the ground is prepared in order to lay down the lower layers of road pavement. Water mains are also installed, and the kerb and channel guttering are build into place.

Phase 5

Electrical & Telecom

In this phase trenches are dug for the running of electrical and telecommunications cabling and wiring, preparing the way for power, phones and the internet to be connected.

Phase 6

Footpaths & Asphalt  

The construction of footpaths, as well as for the topsoil of the community’s
nature strips are then laid. Significantly, this phase also sees roads take shape with the laying of asphalt.

Phase 7

Practical Completion & Inspection Of Works  

The Council and Service Authority perform final inspections before signing off on constructed works including roads and services. Final documentation is provided to Council, facilitating a Statement of Compliance for the development stage.

Phase 8

Titles Office & Settlement

Have some champagne ready for this major milestone. This is the final step of the construction phase, where registration of individual lots from each stage occurs at the Titles Office, earmarking your block for settlement and opening it up for you to begin building your home
