Locations in Greater Geelong

City Living

Building in the city offers close access to local amenities, culture, and entertainment. It also means living in close quarters to others, is relatively more expensive, and possibly being more restricted when it comes to the size and style of your home.

Suburban Living

The suburbs may offer a more affordable building option than city living, with convenient access to everything the city has to offer. Blocks in the suburbs tend to be larger, affording larger home builds with outdoor space to create a true haven.

Rural Living

The suburbs may offer a more affordable building option than city living, with convenient access to everything the city has to offer. Blocks in the suburbs tend to be larger, affording larger home builds with outdoor space to create a true haven.
