Business Description
WHY FISHERMANS BEND
Only once in a hundred years does an opportunity like Fishermans Bend come around. It is Australia’s largest urban renewal area. Fishermans Bend is not a suburb, it comprises parts of South Melbourne and Port Melbourne, some of Melbourne's most desirable suburbs.
Melbourne has been named the world's most liveable city for 7 years in a row. As a result of the Fishermans Bend development , we believe that the city of Melbourne will only become more desirable.
NEW SUBURBS AND JOBS
Four new residential precincts have been created. Light industry and warehouses are being replaced by apartments and townhouses. These new homes are expected to accommodate 80,000 new residents and 80,000 new jobs. A new employment precinct has been defined, therefore most residents in the area will be able to walk to work.
IMPORTANCE
Fishermans Bend is vital to Melbourne’s future. Melbourne's population is set to double to over 8 million people by 2050. As this occurs considerations such as travel times, access to employment and amenities, and being closer to the centre of the city become more important than ever. There is an opportunity for astute buyers to purchase properties that will address all of these concerns.
VILLAGE LIFESTYLE
The urban renewal area is designed to have a walk score of 90 or greater, meaning daily errands do not require a car. An incredibly desirable village lifestyle will be available to all who call it home and work there. New schools are already being developed, with one complete and the new campus of the University of Melbourne is expected to be open by 2021.
Fishermans Bend is a 30 year project and early purchasers will clearly reap the greatest reward.
