Homes and building in Epping

Major suburban development in Epping began in the 1970s, and the northern fringe is still being developed. The land is mostly flat, with hills to the north.

Epping station is on the Mernda line, next to Pacific Epping and the Northern Hospital. If you’re thinking about a second home on your block, the zone and lot size decide whether it’s possible.

Before you start

What to check first in Epping

  • Get a free planning property report for your address from VicPlan. It shows the zone and any overlays (such as heritage, flooding or vegetation) that apply to your Epping block.
  • Homes from Epping’s 1970s and 1980s development predate 1990, so before a renovation strips out walls, floors or eaves, check for asbestos. WorkSafe Victoria notes asbestos can be found in buildings built before 1990 (WorkSafe Victoria).
  • A new home whose planning permit application was lodged from 1 January 2024 can’t connect to mains gas, and from 1 January 2027 new homes must be built all-electric (Planning Victoria). Plan the hot water, heating and cooking around that from the start.

Planning questions for Epping go to City of Whittlesea: do I need a planning permit?. Building permits are issued by a registered building surveyor.
