The Surrey Estate Mitcham, Victoria Private Sale 1947/8

Description

After the end of WWII the Federal Government had to approve the prices of land and a full listing of the price of each block is below the map. Generally price was a function of area but not when it comes to possible commercial sites – lots 34 to 39 (on Mitcham Road) were valued around 4 times that of other blocks. The subdivision starts on the western side of Mitcham Road and heads west along Alwyn Street and ends about 4 blocks short of Rooks Road. Rosstrevor Cresent and Ventnor Street cut through the subdivision. It seems lot 30 has made way for Alwyn Court.
