So what is it that defines the lifestyle of those in sunny northern Australia? It is resort style living at its finest. While the concept of indoor/outdoor living has become a highly desirable element throughout Victoria – in northern New South Wales and Queensland, it is an art form.

The irresistible combination of balmy summers and mild winters has attracted interstate and international migration to our northern shores for many years. Now, as one of the fastest-growing regions in Australia, the delights of coastal living are drawing even more fans – not to mention the architecture is setting even higher benchmarks of style and liveability.

Metricon has cleverly amplified the flow between indoor and outdoor spaces in it’s range of home designs taking it’s stylish outdoor rooms to a level that can only be described as ‘resort living’.

While all the Metricon hallmarks are evident – contemporary facades, sumptuous master suites and the versatility and functionality of a range of living spaces – the demand for a resort lifestyle has driven the home designs to new levels of affordable luxury.

Metricon are continuing to fulfil peoples home ownership dreams with the recent introduction of Freedom by Metricon and Allegra range of homes into Queensland. Both ranges complement Metricon’s Designer range of homes but have been positioned to cater for budget conscious buyers responding to the need in the market for more affordable luxury homes.

Land in the South East Queensland corridor has become very expensive, and with many already having felt the pinch last year with turbulent interest rates, rising fuel costs and job security we are also faced with new challenges. Now you can expect to pay up to $100,000 more for the same size block here in Queensland compared to Melbourne. That is why the introduction of our Freedom by Metricon and Allegra ranges has been so critical. We can now offer homes specifically designed for not only the entry level customer, but the investor and the empty nester.

An expanding display network of around 36 homes positioned in the growth corridors of South East Queensland and Northern NSW will see more than 20 new display homes built over the next year including 10 in the Freedom by Metricon range.

Extending from Ballina through to the Sunshine Coast there is bound to be a Metricon display home close by.
