Barwarre Gardens opens to public

Barwarre Gardens will throw open its doors next weekend so the public can see exactly why residents are snapping up lots as soon as they’re released.
“We’ve had extraordinary enquiry levels,” says sales manager Leeanne Morrison.
Leeanne sold the village’s latest two stages in just six weeks each.
“I’ve already had seven homes nominated in stage 7 which I haven’t even released yet,” she says
For Leeanne the village’s secret is its location.
“All the major shopping centres are close by and you’ve got great clinics and hospitals within minutes,“ she says.
Nestled in a quiet corner of Marshall on Barwarre Road, the village is away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
“A visitor to the village yesterday commented on how calm and quiet it was,“ Leeanne says.
The other major drawcard are the village’s beautiful namesake gardens.
“The residents take great pride in the gardens which is wonderful,” Leeane says.
“Our aim is to assist our residents to maintain their independence but if they need any help with their gardens we can take care of them.”
Barwarre Gardens will host an open day on 3 March with Devonshire tea, a sausage sizzle, jazz and three display homes.
“Apart from the usual amenities that all villages have, there is a great sense of community here,“ Leeane says.
“The residents here are all too happy to chat to people and tell them what a wonderful place it is to make their home.”
