Location, connectivity, flexibility, maturity, access to nature, home designs, and community amenities are just a few of the factors that help to create a real sense of belonging at your new address. Find out how Ellendale compares to other masterplanned communities and why it’s the ideal choice to build your home. ## Location and connection While some communities in South East Queensland are set alongside established retail hubs and major thoroughfares, [Ellendale](https://www.cedarwoods.com.au/ellendale/) offers a more tranquil retreat while keeping you connected to everything you need: - Tucked away at the ‘end of the road’ location makes for a quieter and more peaceful way of life at Ellendale; - Ellendale borders the D'Aguilar National Park, and it offers a connection to nature unlike any other, an oasis of serenity amidst a bustling city; - All while maintaining connection to Brisbane CBD is located just 12km away, and your local Ellendale Village that offers an IGA, Café 63, dining options and essential services at your doorstep. ## Homesite options When it comes to homesites, one size doesn’t fit all, which is one of Ellendale’s points of difference. Many modern communities are moving towards solely traditional, flat homesites, limiting the opportunities for truly customised, unique home builds. At Ellendale, you’ll find a diverse range of homesite options, designed to help you create the ultimate sanctuary amongst the trees. - Traditional and flat homesites in a range of sizes and frontages; - Split or sloping homesites that work with the unique topography of the land to create the perfect canvas for bespoke home designs; and - A limited number of semi-acreage homesites, nestled amongst environmental corridors. ## Community living In many masterplanned communities, there are strata or body corporate arrangements in place that govern how communal facilities and properties are used. These may also incur extra costs for residents, which can add up over the years. - At Ellendale, there’s no body corporate or strata fees, just thoughtfully considered design guidelines established to protect your investment and enhance the natural surroundings. - Ellendale’s parklands, walkways, cycle paths and picnic spots are yours to enjoy, with nearby bushland trails inviting you to explore further. ## Live an elevated life at Ellendale Ellendale truly is a community you need to see to believe. If you’re looking for a truly connected lifestyle with the perfect balance of privacy and serenity, while maintaining a convenient connection to the CBD, then it’s time to explore everything Ellendale has to offer. ### [Register your interest](https://www.cedarwoods.com.au/ellendale/property-for-sale/land-for-sale/) now to hear more about our upcoming land releases. ###### Share post × ![240523 ELL Aerial Map_300dpi](https://blog.cedarwoods.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Ellendale_2024%20Brand/Template%20Imagery/240523%20ELL%20Aerial%20Map_300dpi.jpg?width=2000&name=240523%20ELL%20Aerial%20Map_300dpi.jpg) ## Subscribe below for the latest news, stories and updates ## Read more from Ellendale [![](https://blog.cedarwoods.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Stylemaster-1.jpg?width=345&name=Stylemaster-1.jpg) ](https://blog.cedarwoods.com.au/ellendale/the-top-five-tips-to-design-your-dream-kitchen) ### The top five tips to design your dream kitchen It is a well known saying that the kitchen is the heart of the home.
