We grow together and start new stories. A new precinct for the West.

A site located within the heart of Western Sydney Lakes, Phase One is Southbank, characterised by its mixed-use potential comprising leisure, recreation and employment land, has been allocated for the development of a luxury retail and waterfront dining precinct.

The subject property comprises freehold land located in the rapidly growing Western Sydney region, a rising institutional investment market situated at the foothills of the Blue Mountains National Park, along the Nepean River and within proximity to evolving residential town centres.

A thriving culture and commerce in the West. Where opportunities are made real by a diverse community.
