Lendlease’s Figtree Hill community in Sydney sells 50 lots in a day

3 March 2022

Lendlease’s newest masterplanned community in Sydney’s growing southwest has launched, with all 50 lots in its first release snapped up within a single day and a second release fast-tracked.

Located just 10 minutes from Campbelltown, Figtree Hill will deliver 1,700 new dwellings and be home to over 5,000 residents upon completion. 

The new community will provide a range of lot sizes and housing types suitable for everyone from first home buyers to downsizers. A 41-home display village will also be delivered with 17 builders showcasing the latest designs and innovations in home living.

Figtree Hill will be Lendlease’s first all-electric community in New South Wales, enabling it to be run on 100 per cent renewable power. Homeowners will have access to a $10,000 rebate which will assist homeowners to install smart, all-electric services and equipment. The option for an all-electric, sustainable home at Figtree Hill supports Lendlease’s commitment to absolute zero carbon across all operations, including the supply chain, by 2040.

The 216-hectare community will be set amongst 20 hectares of natural bushland and protected conservation areas, six parks and public open green space. Figtree Hill residents will be able to enjoy a network of walking trails and cycle paths, parks and an adventure playground, local convenience stores and a new community centre. A local park and community facilities are planned as part of the first stage.

Successful buyers in the first land release were selected using an independent online platform that randomly allocates lots based on preferences, allowing for a fair and equitable customer experience.** 

Lendlease has been delivering projects in Western Sydney for almost 60 years, and Figtree Hill will be another example of a thriving neighbourhood that balances the needs of people and the environment to bring about a sustainable community which promotes healthy living and a place for everyone.

Ranisha Clarke, Head of NSW Communities, Lendlease said “We knew buyers were eagerly awaiting the launch of stage one, but to sell 50 lots in a single day is a very promising result for Figtree Hill and reflects the pent-up demand for housing in one of Sydney’s most promising growth regions, Macarthur.

“We anticipate this success will continue as people recognise the idyllic and highly connected community as a perfect homebase just 10 mins from Macarthur Square, the University and Campbelltown Hospital. New residents will have easy access to motorways and rail so they’re just as close to their job near the Airport or Western Sydney as they are to the northern beaches of the Illawarra.”
