Drysdale sits on the rise in the middle of the Bellarine, looking down toward Corio Bay, so the blocks here genuinely fall. It is a mix of established township streets, new estate releases and larger semi-rural lots, and on all three the level change usually has to be dealt with before anything gets built.
Select Civil Group is based in Geelong and works Drysdale, Clifton Springs and Curlewis regularly. On a sloping block the wall and the cut are the same decision, so we set the levels and the wall position together rather than building whatever fits after the dig.
