Cedar Woods Properties’ master planned developments—Flourish, Sage, and Ellendale—offer more than just homes; they present lifestyles tailored to various stages of life and unique aspirations.
From first-home buyers to downsizers, these communities exemplify modern living, surrounded by nature and convenience. Let’s delve into some real-life stories from people who’ve made these developments their own.
Nestled in the Logan growth corridor, Flourish combines the tranquillity of bushland with connectivity to Brisbane and the Gold Coast. It’s no surprise that it has become a beacon for first-home buyers and retirees alike.
Kamni and her husband Kumar have chosen Flourish for its serene environment and strong sense of community. With their home under construction in Flourish’s Stage 5, they’re excited to embark on their retirement journey surrounded by friends, with Kamni sharing, “We chose to build our ‘forever home’ at Flourish so that we could start our next chapter of retirement in comfort and be part of a friendly, peaceful, and clean neighbourhood.”
For Benjamin and Justin, Flourish has provided an affordable and vibrant community to begin their journey as homeowners. They found everything they wanted in this boutique estate, with Benjamin noting, “We thought home ownership was out of reach for us in the current market, however after working with our mortgage broker and Sam at the Flourish sales centre, we quickly realised the dream of owning our own home was within reach. From the purchasing journey to the informative updates, we receive about the development, all builds excitement, and we simply cannot wait to live in a thriving community, surrounded by other young families and other like-minded people who are also proud to call Flourish home.”
Located in the thriving Moreton Bay Region just 40min from both Brisbane and Sunshine Coast, Sage is a haven for nature lovers and those seeking a connected, peaceful lifestyle. This community offers a unique opportunity to build homes surrounded by ecological corridors, urban conveniences, and a vibrant central park featuring a playground, basketball half-court, and shaded picnic areas—perfect for embracing every moment of family life.
Returning to their roots, Jenna and Alex Kennedy built their dream home at Sage, complete with views of the community park,. “It’s surreal standing in our new home, looking out into the ecological corridor, and knowing this is our home, and Sage is our community,” Jenna said, as they celebrated being one of Sage's first residents. “Sage is beautifully landscaped and it’s a joy taking the dogs for walks around the neighbourhood and really seeing the community come to life.”
For Grant Campbell, Sage was an opportunity to start fresh. Grant spent 18 months researching builders and home designs, and six months exploring new communities, before deciding on the Sage masterplanned community in the growing Moreton Bay region. The community’s proximity to the Burpengary Train Station and local amenities was especially appealing to Grant. “Having the station so close makes my life easier,” he explained.
Nestled at the edge of the breathtaking South D’Aguilar National Park, Ellendale is where city meets nature. Ellendale invites you to swap rooftops for treetops, offering elevated living amidst 91 hectares of lush green corridors. With stunning views that stretch endlessly and a sense of connection at every turn, it’s no wonder over 570 families have chosen to call Ellendale home.
Tamara Hensen and Robert Patterson focused on creating a home that aligned with their long-term vision. “We focused on building a home that was unique to us. We have gone with an L-shaped home, which combined with the unique shape and style of the block of land, gives us a lot of yard that is effectively cut off from the rest of the world, making it feel like it is our own private little sanctuary.” Robert shared.
Dinesh and his wife Madu, both working professionals with three young children, have embraced their connection to nature and community, purchasing a second homesite at Ellendale by Cedar Woods to accommodate their growing family’s needs. “We love that Ellendale is surrounded by nature while still being close to the city, and local shops and amenities. Ellendale is also just minutes away from great schools for our three girls.”
Each of these stories highlights Cedar Woods’ values, as we thrive to create quality communities that people are proud of to call home. Whether it is the ecological focus of Sage, the tranquil yet connected living in Flourish, or the bespoke luxury of Ellendale, there is a community for everyone.
