Builder Jannali, Sutherland Shire
Jannali is a quiet residential suburb backing onto the Georges River foreshore at Como — 1960s–1990s fibro and brick veneer on 550–800m² R2 blocks. Foreshore lots have water frontage with Foreshore Building Line and Crown Lands referral on river-frontage works — pre-construction window adds 6–12 weeks on water-frontage builds. Stepped sandstone bedrock blocks (typical of the Como–Jannali fall) drive substantial substructure scope on the lots closest to the river. End values $1.4M–$2.0M on standard R2; $2.2M–$3.6M on river foreshore.
