When we talk to people who come to us looking to build a home we often hear the same story, "We were just traveling by and just fell in love with it". We think the Fraser Coast has a way of captivating the child in all of us - it's that memorable family holiday destination that you wish you didn't have to leave. We take pride in building dream homes for these people who want to make the Fraser Coast 'Home'.
The Fraser Coast and its twin cities; Hervey Bay & Maryborough, with the vibrant communities of; Burrum Heads, Dundowran Beach & Craignish, River Heads, Booral, Howard & Torbenlea, Tiaro, Yengarie, and Oakhurst, just to name a few; exchange many different vistas of Australian life and are all within remarkably close proximity. There are the quiet sleepy beach towns, modern lifestyle neighborhoods, fascinating historic towns, bustling beaches, picturesque farmland and pasture, and a fair share of Australian National Parks. It is also an honor to be at the doorstep of K'gari (Fraser Island) which needs no introduction.
Make sure to check out 'Visit Fraser Coast' HERE. They have all of the information and quality advice on how to make the most of the region and they also do valuable work for our compelling tourism scene.
Finding your little slice of paradise!
While at the time of writing this passage it is not easy to secure land, there plenty of options and just a few things to keep in mind to guarantee your slice of paradise here in the Fraser Coast.
Look outside of Hervey Bay. Although being in the center of it all is compelling the benefit of our region is that the pristine sprawling landscape is right on the doorstep of the Hervey Bay. It is a short drive from Maryborough, River Heads or Burrum Heads into Hervey Bay, roughly 25 to 30 minutes, and these areas are showing alot of promise, infrastructure is being progressively upgraded and there is nothing like waking in a peaceful sleepy area and commuting through our picturesque region. The Pialba CBD is only 3-4 trafficlights and a few kilometers from open and undeveloped land. The perfect escape to the ocean from the capital cities.
Get to know our local realtors and keep in touch with PJ Burns Builder. Nothing beats local knowledge! but not only that. Some of the modern estates do have waiting lists on their land. It is best to keep in touch and be the first to get your name down. At PJ Burns Builder we also have invaluable advice for buying land in the area. We have built thousands of homes in 44 years and it is safe to say that we have a fair idea of what to expect, and where, when building your home - making it so much easier to buy with confidence and build with less stress.
Chat to the locals! The locals in the Fraser Coast are typically very welcoming and friendly and the same goes for our fantastic business owners. Many of them have seen the town grow from what it was when they were younger, and many of them will comment on how quickly things are coming together! The locals know the best places to live, the best ways to build, all about the schools and facilities, and what to consider and how to make the best of living in the Fraser Coast.
Explore both online and offline. Realestate.com.au is still the best way to get an overview of what is available however things are moving quickly and it is easy to miss the 'gems'. We find that people often miss the hidden blocks of land in stunning areas because they are focused on the main roads and the business centers. in our region there is heaps of private sellers and you don't have to go far off the beating track at all to find a different and unique community that could have been easily missed. Go for a drive and explore!
