Residential developer Oliver Hume has lodged plans for its second land lease community – this time in South Australia. The company, which launched ReGen Living for its first project now under way in Waurn Ponds, Geelong, is proposing a 6.3ha community at Aldinga, 45km south of Adelaide’s CBD.
Planning documents by Human Habitats show 191 one-, two- and three-bedroom “relocatable” homes across the site, part of a 45ha “super lot” of more than 800 homes being delivered by Villawood Properties and Renewal SA.
Designed by McCabe Architects, the land lease community developed by Oliver Hume will feature a clubhouse with gym, pool, spa, cinema, bar, dining area and communal kitchen, plus outdoor BBQs, tennis and pickleball courts, a veggie patch, orchards, bee garden, weather stations and a shared e-bike program.
A planned railway corridor extension would separate the land lease community from the wider Villawood estate. Both developments are designed as all-electric and sustainable, incorporating solar panels, renewable energy, heat pumps, canopy trees and specialised building fabrics.
The proposal comes amid a wave of land lease projects in South Australia, with new communities in the pipeline at Victor Harbor, Encounter Bay, Murray Bridge, Mount Barker and Goolwa.
