The agent says 700 square metres, but won’t put it in writing. The vendor is the NSW Govt and won’t comment. Council doesn’t know and the contract only gives you the lengths with no area or survey. The lengths from the rear going clockwise are 8 metres, 44, ~24, 47. Can anyone brave a guess on the area of this block. Being zoned R4, land value is about $1500 per square metre so an extra 200 metres makes a difference of 300k in the value.
Find it on Goolge maps, do a "measure distance" on all points, and it will give you the area. How to Measure Area and Distance in Google Maps and Google Earth The Y-man
Advise the agent of the block size. Once an agent know this he/she cannot say “I don’t know” to anyone else who asks (morally? legally?)

No,I would rather everyone else bid with uncertainty. It looked like it was 600 m2. So we’ll see how we go at the auction on the 14. It’s not for me but the youngest of my 4 kids who is looking for another investment as she is moving for a few years of work overseas.
Nobody believes it’s 700m. It looks like 500 because it’s a wide frontage and only about 5 metres across the rear, 8m Perpendicular is about 5 at a right angle. So I’m hoping that like me they think it’s 550 metres.
The contract may contain the title which may include the DP overlay - I think you can buy it. . Google found some tools but you have a 4 sides shape with two + angles and thats a quadrilateral. Hope you like maths. This is a job for a surveyor Area of a quadrilateral Calculator
No size written on contract or on CT. the DP shows the size of the original DP ie 27 blocks of land. Weirdest I have ever seen as property has never been sold. It has been owned by The NSW Govt. since inception.
