🏡 Could your block be split?
WA's draft R-Codes are out, and they're the biggest change to the rules in three decades. Here's what's proposed 👇
📐 More than 70,000 Perth and Peel properties could become eligible to subdivide
✂️ An R20 block of around 700 sqm could become two, down from around 900 sqm today
🏠 Granny flats up to 90 sqm, with no extra car bay needed in Perth and Peel
🏢 Three storeys on R40 land
🌳 15% soft landscaping on every site and minimum tree planting for houses
⚠️ Nothing has changed yet. It's a draft, and you can have your say until 5pm Friday 26 February 2027. There's a drop-in session at Stirling Libraries Karrinyup on Saturday 5 December, 10am to 1pm.
