Residential Zone Infill - Pickering Street
The demolition of this 1880’s era property at number 8 Pickering Street is about to happen.
The tenant, Mr John Stutters, is relocating to Beverly.
Charles Sturt Council approved the construction of 5 two story town houses on the site –decisively reverting to the original 1870’s 12 foot frontage row dwelling system. This is a heritage move of sorts. No design or other requirements were imposed on the proposal, apart from privacy provisions (see following extract from City Charles Sturt development assessment board minutes

Advertised for sale in the Weekly Messenger 27/1/2010 at around $480,000 per each:
- numbers 9,11 and 13 Mann Drive Brompton. The site is now empty apart from the advertising hoarding:
By my calculations this translates to a rental of about $900 PW.
If the total household income at number 9 Mann Drive were to be $270,000 or so, this might be “affordable housing” for the occupants.
Notes:
# assume rental return at 10% capital value, full time average weekly wage at 1,200 and three wage earners as tenants.
# The redevelopment will continue across second street towards the Brompton Park Hotel (just visible here center left, across the vacant block where once stood Grumpy Mill’s house.)
