From dairy farm to boutique 360 home AVJennings development
An old dairy farm in Victoria's Doreen is set to be transformed into a boutique community with more than 360 homes upon completion.
The AVJennings development will include parklands and landscaped gardens for the homes on lots from 294 square metres to more than 700 square metres, from $155,000.
The development, on Bridge Inn Road, is named Hazelcroft, and is a masterplanned community that spent every weekend in March inviting buyers to come and join in with the launch.
Upon completion, more than 16 hectares of reserves and open space, including a central reserve and a green pathway that crosses through the community, will be present, including a central playground due for completion this year.
The site is near to Laurimar shopping centre, Plenty Valley Westfield, Doreen Primary School, Ivanhoe Grammar and two train stations - South Morang and Hurstbridge.
The first release is located at the gateway to the community and is currently available for purchase - either for land or house and land packages for which builders of their choice can be selected.
Peter Vlitas, the Victoria state manager for AVJennings, said that Doreen is already a growing community.
“Doreen is already a great place to live, with all the convenience of existing amenities and the added excitement of our latest residential offering,” Vlitas said.
The March events included face painting, balloon artistry, a gelato van, prize giveaways and a cup cake event - much of these were held with local businesses.
For those purchasing prior to the end of May, a $5,000 'rebate' is being offered for lots in stage one (109, 112, 113, 116, 137 and 138), while those that refer friends are being offered a $1,000 gift card.
In the first premiere release, 30 sites are being offered from 294 square metres to 483 square metres, ranging in price from $155,000 to $195,000 along Windermere Parade, Killarney Street and Wicybush Street. NBN is available to all the properties and the lot depths are up to 34 metres.
Of these, it appears seven have been purchased.
