3 S ITE L OC ATION AND D ETAI LS :
The site at 8 Attunga Heights is located within the Noosa Council residential suburb of Noosa
Heads. Existing dwellings in the area are being redeveloped over time to replace the 70’s and
80’s properties with modern multi-occupancy or high-end housing.

The site is currently occupied by a typical 1980’s detached house which sits centrally on the
site. The site is on a slight slope which angles from the back of the site to the road frontage.
To utilise the maximum potential of the site a semi-detached townhouse configuration is
proposed with the lower ground floor being dug into the natural slope of the site.

The existing treescape consists of two Bribie Island Pines, a Brush box and Golden cane
plants at the rear of the site. Further Golden canes, a Lilly Pilly and a Bribie Island Pine are in
the front north-west corner. An old feature Pandanus that is past its best is located towards
the front of the site next to the existing driveway.

The two main feature trees of the site are located on Noosa Council road reserve are Bribe
Island Pines with a number of weed or undesirable species forming an understory.

Adjacent the boundary at the rear of the site in the neighbouring properties are three mature
Bribie Island Pines. These trees have been taken into consideration with the updated Project
Design that is aimed at minimising the impact on their locations while integrating them into the
overall design.

Comment and guidance will be provided on the subject trees and their suitability for retention
within the currently proposed project design.
