Fences for South Morang's estates and reserves
South Morang sits on the Plenty River just north of Mill Park, with the Plenty Gorge Park and the Morang wetlands along its eastern side.
Most of its homes are on estates built since the 1990s, spreading north from the council offices on Ferres Boulevard. Plenty of back fences face a reserve, a wetland or a bike path, not another yard.
Everyone on the path sees a fence that backs onto a park, so choose one that looks tidy from that side. Colorbond and lapped timber, where each board overlaps the next, both suit.

Fence rules in South Morang
South Morang is in the City of Whittlesea. Side and back fences can reach 2 metres before a building permit is needed. Front fences are limited to 1.5 metres within 3 metres of most streets.
If your back fence borders council land, like a reserve, the council asks you to call them for advice before you replace it.
- Check your property title for covenants, rules a developer or earlier owner set on the land, before you choose a fence
- Call the council if the fence backs onto a reserve or other council land
- A new pool fence needs its own permit and barrier inspection, unless the work is exempt
These rules come from Whittlesea council and its planning rules, and they can change.
Fencing questions from South Morang
My fence backs onto a reserve. What should I do first?
Call the council first. Whittlesea asks owners whose block borders council land to contact them for fencing advice before the fence is replaced.
Which fence looks best from a bike path or reserve?
Colorbond or lapped timber. Both look finished from the path side, and Colorbond is the same colour on both faces, so walkers see what you see.
My yard slopes down to the reserve. Can you level it?
Yes, with a sleeper retaining wall: concrete or timber beams stacked between posts, with the back fence on top. Under 1 metre it usually needs no building permit, unless it's part of other building work or holds up next door's land. Whether your wall can carry the fence is confirmed at the measure.
