Reading a Plot Availability Sheet and Choosing a Position

An availability sheet looks like a list of numbers and is really a map of trade-offs. Working out how to choose a villa plot position from one means understanding which variables are fixed by the master plan, which cost extra, and which will matter to you daily once the house is built.

Band comes first. Three plot sizes structure the enclave — 8,000 sft carrying roughly 7,000 sft of built-up area, 10,000 sft carrying roughly 8,000 sft, and premium parcels of up to 12,000 sft with customised envelopes typically between 8,500 and 10,000 sft. Band determines the programme your house can hold: four to five ensuite bedrooms on the standard format, five on the large, five to six on premium, with parking scaling from three or four covered bays to five or more.

Position then modulates both price and experience. Corner parcels, plots backing the central landscape spine and positions with the strongest privacy aspect all attract preferred location charges, because within 65–70 houses those positions are finite. A plot backing continuous landscape has one boundary that will never be built against — worth paying for if privacy is your priority, and irrelevant if it is not. Plot area above the 8,000 sft base also attracts a per-sft premium, so the step between bands is not purely proportional.

Sequence governs what you can actually choose. Allocation runs strictly on Expression of Interest order, and premium parcels of 10,000 sft and above are expected to release first to early-stage holders. Practically, this means the availability sheet you see reflects your position in the queue rather than the full inventory — and it shrinks over time. Buyers weighing whether to wait should understand they are choosing a later sheet, not merely a later date.

Comparing two parcels comes down to four questions. What does each boundary face? How far is each from the grouped recreation zone and from the entrance? What preferred location charge and plot premium apply to each? And which supports the house you actually want to build, given the built-up envelope each band carries? Walk both before deciding. Reviewing the the site layout and zoning shows how positions sit within the wider layout.

FAQs

1. What determines the price difference between plots?
   Band size, a per-sft premium on area above the 8,000 sft base, and preferred location charges on corner parcels, spine-backing plots and the strongest privacy positions.

2. Which plots release first?
   Premium parcels of 10,000 sft and above, along with the strongest positions, are expected to release first to early-stage EOI holders.

3. How should I compare two plots?
   By what each boundary faces, distance from the recreation zone and entrance, the charges applying to each, and which supports the house you want within that band's built-up envelope.
