Most lifestyle blocks come with rules. This one doesn’t. A private 1.2 ha in Bay View with no covenants - finally, a paddock that doesn’t boss you around. Build the shed first, bring in a relocatable, go full designer home, or plant an orchard and run some chooks. It’s your dirt, your call. Rare land like this doesn’t hang around.
