This weeks blog takes a look at properties in cul-da-sacs or corner blocks with minimal water frontage. We quiet often get enquiries from people who have gone out and purchased a corner block on the water only to find out they can’t legally have a pontoon.

Here are some things to look out for before purchasing:

  • Do the boundary angles tapper-in on the water front end
  • Are there pontoons either side of the property
  • Is there more than 4.5m of property width 10m from the red retaining wall
  • Is there a large build up of sand in front of the property

Above is an example of a corner water front block that wouldn’t be able to obtain a pontoon approval. Below are the reasons why

  • Pontoons located either side of the property actually block any water allocation area
  • As you can see the blue lines cross over only 7.4m from the revetment wall, this area has a 10m quay line
  • The property boundaries tapper in at each other

If you are looking to purchase a corner block we recommend getting in-touch prior and we will take a look obligation free.
