THE PROPERTY
A double storey four bedroom home on a 398m2 block in Maple Grove, Pakenham. A study sits off the entry, separate from the main living zone. The ground floor runs as one continuous zone down the western side kitchen with walk-in pantry, dining, then living. Laundry, linen cupboard and a powder room line the hallway beside the double garage. All bedrooms sit upstairs: the main at the front with a walk-in robe and ensuite, opening onto a balcony, Bedroom 2 with a built-in robe, Bedroom 3 with a built-in robe, and the central bathroom between them.
FOR OWNER-OCCUPIERS
Every bedroom upstairs leaves the entire ground floor for living. Nobody walks through a bedroom to reach the kitchen, and noise stays a floor away from anyone sleeping.
The study sits off the entry, separated from the living zone, so a work call isn't competing with the television. The double garage opens beside the laundry, which is where you want it after a shop, and guests use the powder room downstairs. Upstairs, the main bedroom's balcony gives a spot to step outside without leaving the room.
FOR INVESTORS
Pakenham sits within the Cardinia Shire, one of Melbourne's fastest growing municipalities, and Maple Grove is right at the centre of that growth. It's a master-planned Satterley community in the new Pakenham East precinct, with the East Pakenham train station roughly 550m away one of the closest estate-to-station distances in the growth corridor and the Princes Freeway five minutes away for the CBD run. Demand here is being driven by first home buyers and young families chasing that combination of new infrastructure and land still priced ahead of established suburbs like Berwick and Officer.
HE ESTATE MAPLE GROVE, PAKENHAM EAST
Pakenham East sits around 56km southeast of the Melbourne CBD in the Cardinia Shire, reached via the Princes Freeway. Maple Grove is a master-planned Satterley community that will eventually house around 3,200 residents, built around wetlands, parks and green corridors over 7.5 hectares of public open space in total, including a 6-hectare wetland reserve with walking and cycling trails threading through the estate.
The stand-out is the new East Pakenham train station, just 550m from Maple Grove and one of the closest walk-to-station distances of any estate in the growth corridor, connecting straight through to Flinders Street. A primary school and community centre are planned for the heart of the estate, alongside a future town centre, and residents are close to Pakenham's established shops, schools and dining strip.
