Make a smarter move with this simple guide to choosing the right block of land in Tarneit.
When you’re buying land, it’s easy to get caught up in the price tag or square metre count, but not all blocks are created equal. The right block sets the foundation for a smooth build, great lifestyle, and long-term value. Here’s what to look for (and what to avoid) when choosing yours.
What to Look For
A Functional Shape
Rectangular blocks are the easiest to build on and give you more usable space. At Kinship, most blocks are well-shaped with 12.5m to 14m frontages, ideal for a range of home designs and double garage options.
A Level Lot
Flat land = lower site costs. Avoid hidden expenses like excavation or retaining walls by choosing a block that’s ready to build on from day one.
Location Within the Estate
Look at more than just the lot number. Some Kinship blocks offer views across to the future wetland, a rare bonus that can improve both lifestyle and resale.
Proximity to Future Amenities
Being close to shops, schools, and transport is a win for both owner-occupiers and investors. Kinship is just 200m from the planned Tarneit North Town Centre, making daily life easier and future value stronger.
What to Watch out For
Awkward or Narrow Frontages
Blocks under 10m wide can severely limit your home design choices and make things like side access tricky.
Sloping or Uneven Land
Blocks With Build Restrictions
Look out for easements, overlays or developer guidelines that could restrict what or how you build. Ask for a site plan and always review your builder’s siting.
