We’re excited to share another great residential planning outcome which is approval for a three (3) townhouse development and concurrent subdivision at a corner site in Pavo Street, Belmont Greater Geelong.
This thoughtfully designed infill project transforms an existing residential allotment into a refined medium-density outcome comprising three contemporary double-storey dwellings, carefully balancing neighborhood character, live ability and planning compliance.
Designed to respond positively to its corner context, the proposal delivers strong residential amenity, practical vehicle access, generous private open space and an attractive streetscape outcome 🌿
🏘️ Project Highlights
🔹 Three (3) double-storey dwellings, each with 3 bedrooms, open-plan living areas and functional internal layouts
🔹 Concurrent 3-lot subdivision, creating individually serviced residential lots
🔹 Contemporary architectural design featuring red brickwork, vertical cladding, recessed upper levels and articulated façades
🔹 Compliant on-site parking, with a garage and tandem car space provided for each dwelling 🚗
🔹 Strong landscaping outcomes, including generous private open space and approximately 40.44% garden area provision 🌳
🔹 A well-considered site outcome with 48.51% site coverage, solar-ready roof zones, and an integrated stormwater response
