THE design of the new display village for Honeywood Estate at Wandi is a noticeable departure from a more traditional approach to planning.
Focus is centred on making the village as pedestrian friendly as possible.
The display village will feature about 30 homes, all of which are within easy walking distance of the central sales office and a car park.
“The pedestrian-friendly village will ensure people do not have to drive from one side of the estate to the other to see the wide range of builders’ products displayed on different lot configurations,” Satterley Property Group’s manager of urban and built form, Max Pirone, said.
Mr Pirone said the Honeywood village would contain a diverse range of housing types and lot sizes.
Visitors can expect to find 400sqm cottage lots with 12.5m frontages, as well as super lots measuring more than 1000sqm with 25m frontages at the display village.
In a move to differentiate the Honeywood village from other display centres, cafe facilities will be provided to make the visit more enjoyable for prospective purchasers.
Many of the State’s best builders are already lined up to participate in the $850 million project at Honeywood.
Satterley Property Group chief executive Nigel Satterley said plans were made for 1700 lots and a total population of more than 5000.
In addition, areas have been allocated on the master plans for a school, first-class community and family amenities, retail and commercial services, and park and ride facilities at the proposed Wandi rail station.
About 25 per cent of the estate has been set aside for public open space, with at least 17 pocket parks.
