Excitement is in the air at Highland Walloon, with the first slab now underway as our brand-new community begins to take shape.
G.J. Gardner Homes Ipswich, led by Director and franchise owner Jono Collins, is the first builder on the ground, marking a major milestone as the project transitions from plans to construction.
With preparations underway and the slab scheduled to be poured this week on Lot 15, followed by a second one next week, Jono said it was exciting to be leading the way in a community that is already generating strong interest.
“It’s great to be part of something that’s just starting to take shape,” he said.
“We’re seeing a lot of opportunity here, particularly with the pricing of the land. It’s giving people a foot in the door where they might not otherwise be able to afford it.”
As construction gets underway, activity on site is quickly ramping up, with multiple builds already in the pipeline.
Once slabs are poured, buyers won’t have to wait long to see their homes come to life, with frames arriving within days and construction progressing rapidly.
“We’ve got another two site cuts happening next week and another the week after, so it’s moving at a good pace,” Jono said.
“We’ll have frames delivered the following week and trades on site straight away, so things move pretty quickly from that point,” he said.
Located in the fast-growing Bremer Valley, Highland Walloon is proving particularly appealing for buyers seeking affordability without compromising on space or connectivity.
G.J. Gardner Homes will also be part of Highland Walloon’s future Display Village, which will showcase a range of home designs from leading builders.
Looking ahead, Jono said the high proportion of owner-occupiers would help shape a vibrant and connected neighbourhood.
“I think it’s going to be a really good community. There’ll be a lot of people who take pride in their homes and want to be part of something long term,” he said.
“It’s also a great spot. You’re close to Ipswich, not far from Brisbane, and you’ve got transport like the train nearby.
“The display village is very important too because it gives people the chance to walk through a home and really understand the space, which can be hard to visualise from a plan.”
As more builders prepare to break ground in the coming weeks, Highland Walloon is quickly moving from vision to reality, with the first homes set to rise and a new community beginning to come to life.
