Australand launches Valley Park, Victoria

The new Masterplanned community Valley Park was launched yesterday by Australand, City of Hume mayor Casey Nunn and the Victorian Minister for Housing, Wendy Lovell.

The new Valley Park development in Westmeadows will provide new homes, with the entire final development valued at approximately $160 million. It is a partnership between Australand and the Victorian Government, with the state government providing $56 million.

“With the establishment of brand new, quality housing, this development will provide further opportunities for locals in Westmeadows and nearby suburbs,” said Lovell.

“The Napthine Government invested $56 million in the Valley Park redevelopment, which will help provide 354 high-quality homes as part of our focus on supporting vulnerable people, while also creating a more diverse community in Westmeadows,” she said.

Australand general manager Rob Pradolin said that the key objective is to use the multi-use centre to get residents to interact and meet each other.
