Rain stops play at Brimbank Family Fun Festival!

Due to the extraordinary heavy rain forecast for Saturday 13 November 2010 we’ve had to put our festive cheer on hold and cancel the Brimbank Gardens Family Fun Festival!

Although plans had been made to deal with some bad weather, the forecast of torrential rain is likely to put too much of a dampner on the family-friendly activities planned.

We hope the rain is great for your gardens and fills your rain tanks – and that we can celebrate together with your family, friends and neighbours before too long!

If you need any further information please email community@peet.com.au or call the Peet Community Information Line on 1800 819 912.

More good reasons to build your first home in a Peet community

From 1 July 2010, first homebuyers in Victoria could be eligible to receive up to $20,000* in assistance.

Together, the First Home Owners Grant of $7,000 and the First Home Bonus of $13,000 provide first homebuyers with 20,000 good reasons to build their dream home in a Peet community in Victoria.

Peet Limited CEO and Managing Director Brendan Gore said first-time buyers should act now to take full advantage of the generous financial incentives on offer.

“Recognising the demand for affordable homesites in highly sought-after locations across Melbourne, Peet is continuing to deliver a broad range of options that are attracting first-time buyers to our communities,” Mr Gore said.

Peet has land available across Melbourne’s growth corridors, from Greenvale Lakes in the north, to Tarneit Gardens and The Rise in the west, and Skye Valley and Cardinia Lakes in the south east.

First homebuyers are now also able to choose from a selection of house and land packages at communities across Melbourne by using Peet’s house and land website (www.peethouseandland.com.au).

“Peet offers a variety of lot sizes and prices meaning buyers will find a homesite that suits their budget and their needs now and into the future,” said Mr Gore.

Deer Park Bypass brings city even closer to Brimbank

Brimbank Gardens’ residents can save another 15 minutes off travel time to the city thanks to the opening of the new Deer Park Bypass.

The $331 million Deer Park Bypass, which opened on 5 April 2009, provides residents with direct access to the Melbourne CBD via Robinsons Road to the Bypass.

The Bypass allows traffic from the Ring Road to travel at freeway speeds, avoiding 20 intersections and many traffic signals compared with the old Western Highway route. In peak hour, that reduces travel time by around a quarter of an hour.

Peet Limited Managing Director and CEO Brendan Gore welcomed the opening of the road on behalf of residents.

“Brimbank Gardens is a popular estate due to its high-quality facilities and convenient location but improvements to transport and infrastructure, like this, are helping to enhance the development of this well-serviced community,” Mr Gore said.

Brimbank Gardens is located close to public transport, with bus services running through the estate and the Deer Park Train Station ideally located nearby.

The excellent transport links are just one of the reasons that first homebuyer Damien Calleja and his partner Karoline Fagan chose to build their new home at Brimbank Gardens.

“The Deer Park Bypass will be a huge benefit to us,” Mr Calleja said. “We both work in the city, and a reasonable commute to work was a priority.”

“It’s hard to find land close to the CBD and Brimbank Gardens is one of the closest new developments to Melbourne.”

Brimbank Gardens is just 17 kilometres from Melbourne, ideally positioned between the region's two major shopping complexes, Sunshine Marketplace and Brimbank Shopping Centre.

Mr Calleja and Ms Fagan were so determined to secure a property at the popular estate that he queued for two and a half days prior to the estate’s February land release, alongside 32 other eager buyers.

“It was the right time for us to buy. The homesites at Brimbank Gardens are affordable, and the First Home Owners Boost provided us with the support we needed to build our own home,” said Mr Calleja.

Mr Calleja and Ms Fagan have already chosen their home design, and hope to move in by March 2010.

Homebuyers seeking more information about available homesites at Brimbank Gardens, can phone (03) 9363 7071, see www.brimbankgardens.com.au or visit the Sales Office at 63 Windsor Boulevard, Derrimut from 12pm to 5pm Saturday to Wednesday.

Brimbank Gardens' parklands have been designed with a range of community facilities including public space for picnics, barbecue facilities, playground areas and granite walking tracks.

Further landscaping works are scheduled to begin in February 2009 so families, couples and singles alike will be enjoying these additional features in the near future.

Meanwhile, the opening of the $331 million Deer Park By-Pass, scheduled for mid-2009, will make it even easier to access the Princes Highway from the estate, reducing commuting time to the Melbourne CBD by approximately 15 minutes.

Young 'green thumbs' get Waterwise

Students from Deer Park West Primary School will officially launch their new Waterwise garden makeover on Wednesday 11 June, one of six new gardens presented to winning Victorian schools by Peet Limited.

The competition, designed to raise awareness of water conservation, received an impressive response with nearly 2,000 Victorian students across 23 schools participating.

Peet Limited uses water sensitive designs in all its estates, including local estate Brimbank Gardens.

The top three entries from each of the participating schools were put through their paces by the guest judges Melissa King, of Channel Nine's Garden Gurus and Darren Atkinson, President of the Landscape Architects Institute.

The six winning schools are in the final stages of garden makeovers, with students gaining a unique opportunity to contribute hands on with the planting of native, low maintenance, water wise shrubs and grasses.

Peet is a leading national diversified property company – an asset manager, land syndicator and property fund manager that has been trading continuously for more than 110 years.

Peet's environmentally sensitive developments have earned more than 20 awards from organisations such as HIA GreenSmart, the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA), the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA), Greening Australia, Landcare and Waterwise during the past decade.

Peet Managing Director Brendan Gore said the competition fostered the education and awareness of sustainable designs for water conservation.

"By giving younger generations the opportunity to research, design and gain feedback on their designs and watch the project come to fruition, we aim to inspire students to be conscious of the environment and the difference that they can make," said Mr Gore.
