Lendlease secure 1100 residential lots in Pakenham

Core Projects have recently completed the successful
transaction of 1100 residential lots on behalf of Lendlease Communities in the
recently approved Pakenham East PSP, South-East of Melbourne. The deal brokered
by Kane Malcomson & Trent Malcomson of Core Projects, will see an 83
hectare cattle farm transformed into a masterplanned community. Lot sales
within the estate set to commence in 2021 following Lendlease’s very successful
‘Lakeside Pakenham’ development.

Details of the project include:

• 205 acres / 83 hectares
• 1,100 lot yield
• Located across 3 titles
• Project includes an 11 hectare park with
  extensive waterways
• Close
  to the future Major Town Centre and future schools

This is the third off market transaction brokered by Core
Projects in Melbourne’s South East in the past 6 months, with the company also
facilitating the transaction of two large farms in Clyde.

I am delighted to have worked with one of Australia’s
leading developers, Lendlease, to broker this deal. Core Projects’ depth of
understanding of Melbourne’s South-Eastern growth corridors has helped
facilitate a mutually beneficial deal for both developer and landowner and we
are proud to be growing our footprint in this region. Kane Malcomson,
Acquisitions Manager, Core Projects.

The approval of the new Pakenham East PSP will further fuel
growth of Melbourne’s South-East. The region has seen immense growth in the
past two years which has continued despite the challenges of 2020, demand for
property in the region is not slowing.
