A long-vacant block at Grange would be turned into 17 townhouses under a new development proposal.

The property, at 236-238 Trimmer Parade, is right behind Grange Golf Course and has sat open for years with just one house on the prominent 2471sq m expanse.

Under a plan before Charles Sturt Council, it would be divided into 17 allotments under a community title, with a large block of terraced houses.

Each home would be about 4.35m wide with a single garage, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

All three bedrooms would be upstairs, with living, kitchen and dining rooms downstairs.

It complies with the development rules over the block, which falls into a residential zone.

Records show the property was bought by Getico Pty Ltd for $1.92 million in May 2019.

The development itself is estimated to cost $1.2 million.

Four other companies – Fulegti Pty Ltd, Anielo Pty Ltd, Drewdan Pty Ltd and Benleigh Investments – are also listed as being involved with the townhouse development.

The surrounding properties are predominantly single-storey, low density houses.

It has been declared a category two development, meaning only neighbours were notified of the plan and given a chance to respond.

Zaina Stacey Development Consultants, which have lodged the application, has been asked for comment from the developer.
