DISPLAY HOMES NOW OPEN – FEBRUARY 2007

It is with great pleasure and excitement that we announce the opening of the first Habitat Display Homes.

Brisbanes premier builders have joined together to provide a giant display of contemporary living ideas. Come and see these magnificent homes that have all embraced the design vision for the Habitat estate.

 

FINAL STAGE NOW SELLING – FEBRUARY 2007

With the first 5 stages quickly selling out we have had to bring forward the release of Stage 6 - the final stage of this magnificent estate.

Stage 6 consists of a great selection of large, well proportioned lots, predominantly with north/south orientations and parkland outlooks. Please note, however, that there are only 26 lots available in this stage, so to avoid missing out contact our sales manager on 3823 2353.

 

Stages 4 & 5 Construction Brought Forward -August 2006

Due to the huge demand for land in the first 3 stages of the Habitat estate, we have had to fast track the construction of the next 2 stages.

Construction of stages 4 and 5 is now due for completion by the middle of August 2006. These stages should then be released to the market some time in late August.

Consisting of quiet culs-de-sac backing onto our beautiful linear park, plus a wide range of allotment sizes, these stages are sure to be a big hit with the astute purchaser. Please contact our sales office if you would like to register your interest in the upcoming release.

 

Habitat Display Homes Under Construction -July 2006

Habitat Wakerley will feature a number of quality display homes from builders active in the bayside area. The first of these homes, constructed by BMW Homes, is already complete and open for inspection.

Another six fantastic homes are also well under-way, consisting of three double storey and three single storey homes. A further three more homes will commence construction shortly, giving us a total of at least 10 display homes.

Display builders include BMW Homes, Monterey Homes, Metricon, GW Homes, Evermore Homes and Auzland. All the display builders have embraced the Habitat design theme of “Contemporary Queensland Bayside”. The majority of the display homes are new designs being built for the first time. Many of the homes have also been specifically designed for the Habitat estate.

When completed there will be an array of unique single and double storey homes to inspect, all suited to the large allotments at Habitat Wakerley.

 

Habitat Selected as Finalist in Awards - July 2006

UDIA Awards for Excellence Logo - FinalistHabitat Wakerley in only it’s first year on the market has been recognised by leading industry body the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) for the high quality of planning and construction that has been undertaken by the developer. With the first homes at Habitat under construction and approaching completion, the estate has been awarded as a finalist by the UDIA in the Small Residential Subdivision category.

The award is recognition of the attention to detail given by the developer in all areas of the estate from the landscaped parks and walking trails to the entry statement and fencing treatments. Comiskey Corporation has set the standard for the bayside area, offering large home-sites in a highly sought after location and delivering the environment within the estate to match.

As one resident puts it - “We are thrilled for the chance to enjoy fantastic parklands at our front door, with the beautiful bay only minutes away.” As an endorsement of the recognition given by the UDIA, when asked why they purchased at Habitat they stated the main reasons were “…generous blocks, high quality landscaping offering the ability to build the home they wanted while respecting the design guidelines for the estate”.

 

Habitat First Stages Complete - January 2006

Construction of the first 3 stages of the Habitat estate is now complete. These first three stages include our Park Drive, Melaleuca and Red Gum Releases. Titles for the newly created lots are expected to be registered in February.

We are very excited about the quality of the completed estate, particularly the extensive landscaping features. The finished product has exceeded our expectations and we look forward to families moving in an enjoying their new community.

Construction of Stages 4 and 5 of the estate will commence some time in the first half of 2006. Development Approval for Stage 6 has also been obtained, with construction likely to commence late 06 or early 07.

 

Park & Playground Open for Fun - January 2006

The Habitat Park, complete with it’s playground, BBQ facilities, walking tracks and open space, is now complete and ready to be enjoyed.

Comiskey Corp has put a lot of time and effort into building a park that will be the centerpiece of the Habitat community. Being a company made up of young families, we know what both kids and parents want in a park. The play equipment and unique landscaping is designed to challenge and entertain children of all ages.

We believe the Habitat Park will become a destination for families wanting to get out of the house and enjoy the outdoors. With its sheltered picnic area and BBQ facilities, the park is the perfect place for birthday parties or family gatherings.

For residents of Habitat, the park will be like your own extended back yard. And as future development of the area occurs the park will only become better, because it is designated to ultimately increase in size to more than 10 acres – that’s more than 3 times the current size.

 

Habitat Construction Update - October 2005.

Construction of the first 3 stages of the Habitat estate is rapidly nearing completion. These first three stages include our Park Drive, Melaleuca and Red Gum Releases.

Civil works, including roads, drainage, sewer and water, is essentially finished. All the lots created are flat, elevated above the roads and are of generous proportions. The way we have constructed the lots will ensure that there is minimal site work required when building your new home, thus saving you money for more important things.

Landscaping is now well under way and it is very exciting to see our vision of a unique parkland estate coming to fruition. The next month or so will see the completion of our parkland, open spaces, playground, street art and walking tracks. The quality and extent of our landscaping will be a benchmark for residential communities in the bayside area.

Despite a couple of periods of very heavy rain the project is due for completion in line with our original program, with titles expected first thing in the new year.
