The project, developed by AVID Property Group and being built by Villaworld Homes, was inaugurated with a sod-turning ceremony on July 27, marking the beginning of an ambitious venture aimed at addressing the region’s growing housing needs while prioritising environmental conservation.
Elan is set to provide 387 homes, offering a mix of one- and two-storey residences. This diverse housing portfolio is designed to cater to a wide range of homebuyers, from first-time owners to growing families seeking more space.
Anthony Demiris, AVID General Manager Queensland, highlighted the project’s significance in meeting the increasing demand for housing in South East Queensland. He said they observed a rising trend of buyers moving away from inner-city locations, who are not just looking to upgrade their homes and lifestyles, but also seeking more affordable housing options in suburban and regional areas.
What sets Elan apart is its commitment to environmental stewardship. As part of the development plan, AVID Property Group will dedicate 9.91 hectares of land containing vital koala habitat to the local Council.
This move has earned praise from Cr Cath Tonks, who expressed gratitude for the developer’s environmental consciousness.
Furthermore, the project includes innovative wildlife protection measures. Three koala crossings will be constructed, with two underpasses at the community entrances and a third, groundbreaking overpass across Kremzow Road. This overpass will be the first of its kind in Moreton Bay and will feature fauna monitoring capabilities, contributing to research and improving understanding of koala movements in the area.
The Elan development represents a thoughtful approach to urban expansion, balancing the need for new housing with environmental conservation. It reflects a growing trend in property development that seeks to create communities that coexist harmoniously with local ecosystems.
