Melbourne growth areas

Buying a home in Melbourne? Here’s where you should be looking.

It’s a tale as old as time. The ‘Great Australian Dream’.

Owning your own home and subsequently enjoying the security and sense of purpose that homeownership brings.

However, after a tumultuous few years in the property market, many buyers feel this dream is now out of reach. You might be asking yourself, where can I afford to buy a house?

From unprecedented demand to rapidly rising interest rates, many buyers can be forgiven for thinking now is not a good time to buy. But we’re here to tell you there are pockets of affordability in some of Melbourne’s biggest growth areas.

So where is the best place to live in Melbourne, you may ask?

Occupying ideal locations in rapidly growing regions across the city, read on to discover how a Growland community can improve your lifestyle and help you find your feet in an exciting, and occasionally daunting property landscape.

 

Botania by Growland – Fraser Rise 

With only a few lots remaining, Botania occupies an ideal location in the emerging suburb of Fraser Rise (formerly Plumpton).

Just 5 minutes from the well-established suburb of Caroline Springs, life at Botania offers a rare and tantilising prospect for a new community; an established lifestyle from the get-go.

Think quality cafes, restaurants, educational providers, transport corridors and more, just minutes from home.

From an investment perspective, recent data from the Australian Property Investor noted that the average house price in Fraser Rise rose by an incredible 14.8% in the last financial year.

With up to $195 million set aside in Growth Area Infrastructure Contributions, set to go towards building schools, public transport and emergency services facilities, there’s no doubt that the future of this region is steady and secure.

Residents within Fraser Rise also enjoy seamless access to major highways, including the Melton Highway and Western Ring Road. With Watergardens Station just 10 minutes away, major upgrades as part of the Suburban Rail Loop project will significantly cut commuting times, helping residents in Melbourne’s west to live more comfortably and efficiently.

Aside from infrastructure, life in Fraser Rise also promises natural serenity. Together with neighbouring Deanside, the suburbs will host 40 local parks including the picturesque Kororoit Creek. Lucky Botania residents have their very own waterway reserve running through the centre of the community connected to the iconic creek.  These spaces provide important conservation reserves and a network of carefully-designed pedestrian and cycle tracks for all to enjoy.

Furthermore, each complex offers peaceful outdoor spaces, including the 2400sqm sky garden atop of Victoria Square Stages One and Two. Each complex also encourages an active lifestyle, with a pool and gymnasium available in each precinct.
