Thanks heaps Cap B.

Yeah, I thought so.  I had this checked out by VicUrban, who I bought the block from, my solicitor and my architect.  Not one of them saw any sort of restrictions on the title.  The biggest condition of us buying the block was that we could do this in the future, that's why we bought a 2000sq mtr block on a corner.

I think of it as my retirement plan.  fingers crossed everything works out well.  We're due to start building our dream home early in the new year.

Thanks again.
