About this project

Set on a 34ha island among wetlands, nature reserves and a golf course, Halcyon Greens is Australia’s largest lifestyle community.

The project includes 522 houses, a revamp of the golf clubhouse and 22 facilities that can cater for up to 800 people.

Set in Pimpama, Queensland, an area not usually known for its retirement living developments, the Halcyon Greens project offers a luxury lifestyle for those aiming to retire in comfort.

Project details

Halycon Greens consists of 23 different home designs (two-bedroom plus study; three-bedroom plus study), and an array of customisations from 170.8sqm to 283.5square metre. On completion, there will be 7500 solar panels in the community, with 40 per cent having a Tesla battery.
All homes are designed to the Silver Liveable Housing Design Principles to cater for changes in mobility.
The facilities offer 22 different functional spaces and the ability to host 40 different activities and interest groups. Facilties are designed to cater for up to 800 people at any given time, which represents 80 per cent of the community's population.
