How Clemton Park is zoned
Buying in Clemton Park? The zoning, flood and bushfire lines on the section 10.7 certificate attached to the contract are mapped controls - see our s10.7 certificate guide.
Across its 0.35 km², Clemton Park is relatively unconstrained by the planning overlays we hold.

There is 1 heritage-listed site on record, and the dominant land-use zone is Medium Density Residential. The median lot measures about 498 m² across 452 parcels. These figures are suburb-wide - the overlays that actually apply to a given lot can differ block to block, which is what a property-level check tells you.

Is Clemton Park flood-prone?

Bushfire mapping covers Clemton Park and little to none of it is mapped as bushfire-prone (the Canterbury-Bankstown average is 10%). Always confirm for the exact lot, as mapping can change.
