FOUR REASONS TO BUY IN A MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITY 

When purchasing or building a new home, there are many important factors that may play into your decision-making process, including choosing the right builder, location and community to complement and enhance your lifestyle and needs. 

Our latest blog explores key elements to consider when deciding on a community, covering four reasons why a master planned neighbourhood like Everleigh may be the perfect fit for your future home. Master planned communities are thoughtfully-considered from day one to ensure residents are supported by a range of amenities, enjoy a strong sense of community, foster quality streetscapes and are well-located.

Amenities at your doorstep 

Successful master planned communities include a range of onsite amenities to ensure residents can live an active, healthy and social lifestyle. As these amenities are considered from the outset, they are designed with accessibility in mind, meaning every home should be in close proximity to, for example, a green space or footpaths. 

At Everleigh, all of life's necessities are at your doorstep. Key amenities include the Everleigh State School, which opened in time for the 2022 school year and is located at the heart of the Everleigh community. There are also a range of outdoor amenities for residents to enjoy year-round including Leaf Park and Everleigh Park, which between them house children’s playgrounds, picnic spaces, barbeque areas, green spaces and much more. 

There are still many more exciting amenities to come at Everleigh such as 38 hectares of regional sports and recreation parks, including the Everleigh AFL Oval, an off-leash dog park, and a future Everleigh neighbourhood retail centre. More than 148-hectares is also being preserved as conservation bushland and will feature trails for residents to actively enjoy this significant green space within the community. 

There is no shortage of current amenities close to Everleigh too, with Greenbank Shopping Centre, anchored by Woolworths, only a stroll across the road, and Orion Springfield Central and Grand Plaza in Browns Plains just a short drive away.

Strong sense of community

Master planned communities are purposefully designed to promote a strong sense of community, with onsite amenities like parklands creating spaces for people to come together and streetscapes designed to encourage active engagement between residents.

Everleigh runs a community program through our community engagement team, Enriching Communities Greenbank, which commenced even before the first residents moved in. This vibrant program of free weekly activities and monthly events connects residents and the Greenbank community through a range of activities including yoga classes, Easter Egg hunts, movie and food truck nights, boxing classes, playgroups, seniors’ coffee catch-ups and much more! 

Being home to a tight knit community also means you are surrounded by people who want to improve collective wellbeing and foster friendships. Everleigh is a community that looks out for each other.

Quality homes

Master planned communities often include design standards that are in place to help buyers add value to their homes by promoting attractive streetscapes all residents can take pride in and protecting homeowners’ investment over the long term.  

A significant point of difference for Everleigh is our focus on well-designed and high quality homes, with our Everleigh Residential Design Standards & Guidelines assisting purchasers to construct their home to meet these benchmarks.

Everleigh’s commitment to high quality homes is also echoed through our partnerships with 11 of Queensland’s leading builders, who are well versed in our design standards. You can see show-stopping examples of these homes and discover which builder is right for you by visiting Everleigh’s new display village, with 21 stunning new displays on show. 

The broader Everleigh community matches these high design standards, with our bespoke entry statement setting the tone for the quality of the community and welcoming our residents home. The sculptural statement features 80 origami-like curved steel pieces, which represent the mountains that are the backdrop to our community.

Investment in your future

Master planned communities are often located in regions earmarked for significant growth, meaning you can benefit from new investments in infrastructure and amenities designed to support an expanding population.

Everleigh is situated within the Greater Flagstone Priority Development Area (PDA), which was declared by the State Government in 2010 to accommodate population growth in sought-after South-East Queensland. 

This means Everleigh is part of a broader region which will continue to expand in the coming years, as more families choose to move to the area for its affordability, commutability to key employment and lifestyle hubs and the growing number of amenities being delivered to the region.
