Sekisui House Australia secure Castle Hill land site for townhouse development
Sekisui House is expanding into Castle Hill with a new site acquisition for its premium home building brand, SHAWOOD.
They've secured a 1.2-hectare site at 2 McIntyre Place, where they intend to develop 16 detached homes each on 700 sqm which they will start construction on in mid-2024.
The acquisition comes off the back of continued growth for Sekisui House Australia, with the business recently announcing 10 acquired parcels of land across Sydney, NSW.
Sean Osawa, CEO of Residential Communities and Home Building at Sekisui House Australia, said the expansion into Castle Hill represents a key milestone in our growth journey across New South Wales.
"This project, like our other communities, is set to meet our high standards of innovation, design and sustainability but also resonate deeply with the local community."
The development is strategically located in a leafy area of Castle Hill and offers one of the last in-fill sites in the area.
"At Castle Hill, our vision extends beyond constructing homes. We aim to cultivate a living environment that reflects the aspirations of our residents, enhancing the local community fabric," Osawa added.
"Each SHAWOOD home will be custom designed for the site, demonstrating the highest quality workmanship and curated Smart Home and sustainability inclusions."
The project is expected to draw significant interest due to its proximity to key infrastructure in The Hills Shire, including North Connex, the Metro North-West, arterial freeways to Sydney’s CBD, Castle Hill Towers shopping precinct, and educational facilities.
The development's strategic location, offering easy access to the city via the Castle Hill Metro Station and major roads.
