Sustainable Communities

The Sustainable Communities approach offers land owners and developers a new approach for designing and developing communities in south-east Queensland and north-east New South Wales.

It provides land holders and developers an opportunity to optimise overall site profits through a combination of minimising development costs like roads and other infrastructure, maximising site potential and amenities, and improving marketability of resulting house and land package.

In addition to the benefits for developers, Sustainable delivers affordable, environmentally responsible housing for buyers that provide affordable living throughout the 25-year life cycle of the homes.

Benefits for Land Holders:

  • Reduce up to 40% of land development costs
  • Release value from difficult, unavailable land
  • Reduce time frames for delivery to point of sale
  • Reduce up to 25% of build costs
  • Increase housing stock diversity and appeal
  • Improve position in ‘house & land’ market

Our Communities

Sustainable delivers truly design-led, sustainable living, and sensible city infill communities that are always committed to our belief – “By creating better buildings, we create better people.”  Our vision is to create inspiring design-led sustainable community developments that serve to:

  • Maximise choices and opportunities for various aged and abled residents and visitors (from the young to the elderly),
  • To enhance social engagement and connectivity, and
  • To promote inspired and inclusive sustainable lifestyles.     

Our expertise has allowed the Sustainable Team to be involved in the master planning and creation of such community developments. The most recent proposed Sustainable community development is ‘Elysia on Yangan’ – a Recipe House Community Development proposed in Yangan, QLD.
