BARINGA has been named ‘Best Masterplanned Community’ at the 2023 Property Council of Australia awards held in Sydney last week.
Stockland Project Director Josh Sondergeld said it was an honour to receive the award. “We are extremely proud of what we have created and achieved since launching the project in 2016,” he said.
“As the first suburb of the $5 billion masterplanned community of Stockland Aura, Baringa provides a wide range of much needed housing options for the Sunshine Coast.”
Prior to December 2019, it claimed the top spot as the best-selling masterplanned development in Australia, surpassing projections and prompting the commencement of Aura’s next suburb, Nirimba.
“The success of Baringa can also be contributed to its diversity of housing options, from affordable, entry-level terrace homes to family-sized house and land packages, making it desirable to a full spectrum of buyers,” Mr Sondergeld said.
He added the community provided convenient and connected living where residents can live, shop and work and is anchored by a community centre, primary school, high school, childcare centre, sports ground, shopping centre, tavern and several parks and green spaces.
