It’s no secret that there’s been a surge of Melbourne families moving to Regional Victoria and the south-eastern region of Gippsland is no exception. In fact, over 50 per cent of recent customer calls to local New Homes Consultant, Leigh McDonald, have come directly from Melbourne residents looking to make the move.

3. Facades that give you an edge
‘The Gippsland market has a huge appetite for the modern simplicity of the Flinders façade and the striking roofline of the Arcadia façade,’ says Leigh.
‘A more traditional alternative that works very well in the Gippsland market is the elegant Greyson façade.’
‘Some of our other popular and more affordable options, the Viva and Luxe facades, showcase the great designs that Boutique Homes is known for,’ explains Leigh.
4. What to expect from the Gippsland lifestyle
You can expect bigger blocks, meaning a larger backyard for the kids and/or pets, and plenty of privacy –with a huge variety of amenities just a short car ride away. ‘People move here for the considerable distance from their neighbours, without feeling isolated,’ says Leigh.
‘You really get the best of both worlds – fresh air, treelined streets and a refreshing country lifestyle, but with outstanding capital growth.’
But the biggest drawcard when it comes to the Gippsland region? ‘Definitely the sense of community,’ says Leigh. ‘For people moving to and residing in Gippsland, it’s the ability to connect with the town, people and feeling part of something that’s so important. Especially after such an intense year of lockdowns,’ continues Leigh.
‘Gippsland isn’t just an address – there’s real pride in this town.’
Gippsland is also home to a range of amenities that are key to the liveability of the area. This includes the Latrobe Regional Hospital, West Gippsland Hospital, access to the V Line and sporting ovals in Morwell, Traralgon and Moe that cater to the AFL and Big Bash regional games – the list goes on. ‘And from Warragul, it only takes 30 mins to get to Pakenham, and 60 mins to the Mornington Peninsula. It’s closer than you think,’ says Leigh.
‘Even if you want to go away for a long weekend or family road trip, you’ve got Gippsland’s 90 mile beach a close drive away, the beautiful Wilsons Promontory for camping and hiking and also Phillip Island, which gets a lot of traction with families here because of the Penguin parade, beaches, resorts and fishing.’
