In Australian English Australian and New Zealand English , a quarter acre is a term for a suburban plot of land. Traditionally, Australians and New Zealand New Zealanders aspire to own a 3 or 4 bedroom house or bungalow on a section of around a quarter of an acre about 1,000 square metres , also known locally as the Australian Dream or the New Zealand dream . The land was frequently put to use with vegetable gardens, ref http www.nzhistory.net.nz culture no pavlova please fresh canned frozen Fruit and vegetables food in New Zealand , New Zealand History online. ref fruit trees, or lawns for family recreation. The quarter acre aspiration has changed in recent decades, with sub divisions, infill housing, apartments, and townhouses becoming more common in large cities, and nearby Hobby farm lifestyle farming blocks becoming popular. Most quarter acre sections are not exactly a quarter of an acre. With urban growth, properties tend to be smaller.
