Welcome To The Arramont Community Update For July

Construction continues, and we're pleased to share an update with you.

Montbeliard Road Continuation

The connection service order has now been accepted by Ausnet with their service provider to complete the connection in the coming 5-10 business days. We again thank the Arramont community for their patience during this time.

APA Gas Easement Landscaping Works - Montbeliard Road

Works are nearing completion on the southern section of Montbeliard Road with the central median set to be completed in the next 1-2 weeks.

Stage 7 Reserve

Public lighting works have been successfully completed. As we proceed with the electrical connections, please note that the area will be temporarily fenced off. We expect these works to be completed within the next two weeks. Following the completion of the connections, reinstatement works will commence. This will involve the replanting of trees and seeding of grassed areas to restore the surroundings.

Stages 13 & 14A

Road pavement works have progressed well, thanks to the favourable weather on site. Electrical and telecommunication reticulation are nearing completion, with the remaining concrete works scheduled for next week. Additionally, sewer and water testing have commenced, followed by topsoiling of nature strips and site cleanup.

Stages 15, 16 & 20

The bulk earthworks for Stages 15, 16, and 20 are currently in progress and are advancing smoothly, thanks to the favourable weather conditions. These works are well resourced with ample machinery to ensure this key component of the works is completed in a timely manner.

Stages 17, 18 & 19

Stage 18 detail design engineering re-submission has taken place and Stages 17 & 19 are progressing through Council review. Contractor tenders are now being received ahead of an anticipated Q3/Q4 works commencement.

Community News

The persistent problem of illegal rubbish dumping remains prevalent across the Whittlesea area. In response, the Arramont team is actively considering the installation of informative signage within the estate. These signs aim to provide guidance on how to report dumped rubbish, as well as address other forms of illegal activity.

Wollert Development is on the rise

Wollert is one of Melbourne’s fastest-growing suburbs, transitioning from a quiet fringe area to a vibrant community hub. With an estimated population of over 40,000 residents in late 2025 and projections suggesting nearly 60,000+ people by 2040, Wollert’s transformation is well underway. Young families and first-home buyers are drawn to the area’s affordability, leafy streets and future-focused planning. With this influx, local infrastructure and community spaces are being rolled out to meet growing demand. One of the most visible developments is Linfield Place, a new retail and community precinct under construction on the corner of Epping Road and Baltrum Drive. This architecturally designed centre costing around $45 million will include: Major convenience retailers like 7-Eleven and Oporto
Aspire Early Learning & Kindergarten
Snap Fitness Gym
Variety of speciality stores Set to open in early 2026, Linfield Place is positioned as more than a shopping centre, it’s designed as a community hub, close to parks, and health and education services that will serve the rapidly growing local population.

Community Centres: Hubs for Families and Services

To support Wollert’s expanding population, Council and the Victorian Government are investing in new community infrastructure. West Wollert Community Centre A brand-new multi-purpose facility is under construction at 63 Jardin Road, expected to open in 2027. This state-of-the-art centre will include: Three kindergarten rooms
Two maternal and child health consulting suites
A mini-branch library with spaces for work and study
Community hall, activity rooms and outdoor garden space
Accessible amenities and parking Designed as a welcoming place for all ages, the centre aims to reduce the need for residents to travel outside Wollert for essential services.

Education in Wollert: Schools for Growing Families

Education has kept pace with residential growth. Wollert’s first primary school opened in 2022, providing local Prep–6 learning and facilities like a library, arts and science spaces. Expansion continues with Wollert Secondary College, adding new learning spaces and a dedicated arts and technology building that will accommodate hundreds more students when complete in 2026. Future plans call for additional school sites, ensuring young residents have access to quality education close to home, a cornerstone of sustainable community planning.

Wollert Transport and Road Upgrades

With population growth comes increased traffic and commuting challenges. Council is tackling this head-on with major upgrades to key arterial roads, including: Craigieburn Road
Boundary Road
Epping Road These upgrades aim to improve traffic flow, safety and connectivity for residents and workers moving around the northern growth corridor. At the same time, transport planning is looking longer term. The suburb’s official development plan reserves land for a future train line to the proposed Wollert town centre, a major boost for public transport if delivered. Meanwhile, existing bus networks continue to link Wollert to neighbouring hubs and rail connections.

Green Spaces & Environmental Conservation

Wollert is known for its large River Red Gum trees and significant natural landscapes, including stony rises that hold cultural importance to the traditional landowners, the Wurundjeri people. Local planning ensures these environmental assets are protected and integrated into new developments as: Conservation reserves
Public parks and open spaces
Biodiversity corridors woven through neighbourhoods Walking and cycling paths are also featured across the suburb, encouraging active lifestyles and connection to nature.

Future Town Centres and Urban Design

Looking ahead, Wollert’s development blueprint includes multiple new town centres, open-space reserves, community hubs and schools, all woven throughout residential growth areas to create walkable, connected neighbourhoods. This framework supports a balanced city-scale growth model: not just houses, but vibrant places to live, work, learn and play.

Current Community Atmosphere

Alongside new retail and community infrastructure, Wollert already enjoys established lifestyle amenities. Just minutes from Arramont Estate, the Whittlesea Monday Market is a popular weekly destination offering fresh produce, food stalls and local goods, creating a relaxed community gathering space. Residents are also close to a wide range of cafés and restaurants in nearby Epping and Craigieburn, providing everyday coffee spots, casual dining and family-friendly eateries. These nearby hubs complement Wollert’s growing retail offering, with future town centres expected to introduce additional local dining options. Wollert’s location also provides convenient access to the Whittlesea countryside and the Yarra Valley wine region, home to cellar doors, winery restaurants and scenic weekend destinations, adding further lifestyle appeal for residents.

How To Choose A Builder

Building a home is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make financially and emotionally. The builder you choose will shape everything from your construction experience to the final quality of your home. With so many builders in the industry, how do you confidently choose the right one for you?

VISIT DISPLAY HOMES

A display home village is one of the best places to begin your builder research. Walking through a display home lets you assess build quality, explore a variety of layouts and designs, understand standard inclusions versus upgrades, and get a true sense of each builder’s style. It’s also a great opportunity to gather inspiration, pick up brochures and other marketing materials, and speak with a sales consultant about the vision you have for your future home. Most display home villages will have a good variety of homes available for you to walk through, so make a day out of it and take your time exploring them all. In Wollert, not far from Arramont, you can find a great selection of display villages that feature many of Melbourne’s top builders!

KNOW YOUR BUDGET

Not every builder works at every price point. Some specialise in budget-friendly homes for first home buyers or premium and custom designs for those building their forever home. Before you get attached to a particular builder or floor plan, be clear on your budget. Look for builders whose base prices and standard inclusions align with what you can afford. This will save you time and ensure you don’t stray too far from your original budget.

DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH

Take the time to read Google reviews, browse forums, and explore social media to gain an honest understanding of other people’s building experiences. Speaking with those who have already been through the process can offer valuable insight into what you can expect. Look for feedback from homeowners who have completed each stage of the journey; from the initial consultation and design selection, through construction and handover, and even after living in their homes for some time. Their experiences will give you a well-rounded view of a builder’s service quality, communication, and It’s also worth checking whether the builder has received any awards or industry recognition. Awards can be a strong indicator of build quality, innovation, customer satisfaction, and design excellence. Organisations such as Master Builders provide a reliable reference point to see if a builder has been formally acknowledged for their work.

MEET WITH A NEW HOME SALES CONSULTANT

Once you’ve narrowed down your list, book a meeting with each builder’s home sales consultant. This is your chance to ask detailed questions about plans and inclusions, understand standard versus upgrade items, clarify site costs and potential variations, and get transparency around timelines and processes. This is also the time to chat through any promotions that they may have that will add value to your build, whether it be free upgrades or a discount on site costs.

LOOK OVER QUOTES AND CONTRACTS CAREFULLY

Request detailed quotes and review each builder’s contract thoroughly so you understand exactly what is and isn’t included. Compare the scope of work, materials, timelines, and warranty terms across all quotes to help identify which builder aligns best with your needs and expectations. Pay special attention to exclusions, payment schedules, and any clauses relating to variations, delays, or additional costs. These details can significantly influence your final decision, as they often reveal how transparent, flexible, and reliable each builder will be throughout the project.

BUILD THE RIGHT HOME FOR YOU

Finding the right builder takes time but it’s worth every step. By visiting display homes, researching thoroughly, comparing quotes, and meeting with sales consultants, you’ll put yourself in the best position to choose a builder who fits your style, your budget, and your future home goals.
