Do you have a corner block? And do you know how to design your new home or renovation to make the most of it?

There can be a range of attitudes and feelings about corner blocks.

Some people really dislike them because they feel less private, and less secure. Others think they’re great, because they feel more spacious and open to light and views – and feel bigger as a result.

Of course, specific challenges and advantages may vary based on how flat your corner block is (and I’ll be discussing more about sloping blocks later in this season). They may also vary based on the size of your block as well, and the specific dimensions of it.

However there are consistent challenges and opportunities when it comes to designing for a corner block that are worth being aware of to get great outcomes.

In this episode, I discuss the key challenges to contend with when designing for a corner block of land. I also explain the opportunities that are available, and how to maximise them.

And, I take you 10 key questions to ask about your corner block, and the home you’re building or renovating on it. These questions will help you create a home that suits your land, and creates a great outcome for your lifestyle.

Whether choosing a home off the plan, building a custom designed home, or renovating and extending your existing one, there are certain things to know so you can make the most of your corner block.
