Hazelmere is part of the Woodbridge land grant given to Captain James Stirling in 1829.

The rezoning of lots to the upper coding of R25 or R35 is considered appropriate due to the location of the Hazelmere lots that are located between 1 and 1.5 kilometres (0.62 and 0.93 mi) from the Woodbridge and East Guildford railway stations, and are within 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) of the strategic metropolitan centre of Midland.

[4] The location of the lots that are proposed to be rezoned include the area generally bounded by Bushmead Road, Stirling Crescent, Eric Street and Wingate Avenue.

Also included are lots on the east side of Wingate Avenue, lots fronting Mary Street and Anthea Street and the freight rail line to the west.

The City of Swan have prepared two maps that show the current and proposed zoning respectively.
