Defence Housing Australia (DHA) will soon submit a development application to Port Stephens Council for a 232-lot housing development.
The development will be located at the former Rifle Range adjacent to Stockton Beach sand dunes on about 111-hectares of land.
DHA has done a mailbox drop this week to residents explaining where the project is up to – DHA said there will be a range of lot sizes available for single and double story dwellings with a portion of the homes built specifically for Defence and the surplus land will be sold to the public.
There will also be a central park and scenic walkways to nearby bushland and Stockton beach.
There’s a community information session at the Stockton RSL next Wednesday, June 7, between 4 and 7pm.
