What about Council zoning for “The Scrub”?
The property is zoned General Farming and the land between the property and Bay of Shoals is zoned Coastal. “The Scrub” is unique in that it was subdivided before the new zoning regulations that prohibit allotment areas of less than 40 hectares were introduced.
Can my view be impaired?
“The Scrub” is fronted by North Cape Road, the land between North Cape Road and Bay of Shoals is zoned coastal and cannot be developed. The surrounding area is zoned General Farming and cannot be developed further.
How does “The Scrub” blend with the natural landscape?
Some years ago the 12 hectare property was subdivided from the main property and apart from the area cleared for residential use the rest has been allowed to regenerate, resulting in areas of natural scrub which has become home to native wildlife such as goanna, echidna, wallaby, kangaroo etc. The natural scrub also attracts a great variety of birdlife such as parrots, lorikeet, honey eaters plovers etc., while the Bay of Shoals attracts sea birds, such as pelican, swan and all sorts of gannets.
