Building your new life

When selecting your allotment and designing your new home please ensure that your builder and/or architect has a copy of the Building Guidelines.

Initially you may place a deposit to ‘secure’ your preferred allotment, however, you will then pay the balance of the Sales Price when the land Title is transferred to your name.

Complete the Approval Form and you will receive an email outlining how to submit your house plans for approval. House design and plans that comply with the Building Guidelines will be approved without delay.

Where the house designs and plans do not comply with the Building Guidelines, the Riverstone Estate team will assist you and your builder to identify amendments that will help to achieve compliance.

Anticipated timeframe for approval, subject to any required design review, is five (5) working days.

Submit a Building Application to Townsville City Council or an accredited private Building Certifier.

Construction of your home and driveway must start within 24 months of the date of settlement of your land.

Once your home is complete, and you have obtained a Certificate of Occupancy from either Townsville City Council or an accredited private Building Certifier, you can move in. Landscaping, including driveway, must be complete within three (3) months of obtaining your Certificate of Occupancy.
