East Maitland Affordable Housing Multi-Residential
Location
East Maitland NSW
Webber delivered a new multi-million-dollar residential development in East Maitland NSW for the NSW Land and Housing Corporation and Department of Planning, Industry and Environment. Designed under the Affordable Rental Housing SEPP 2009, the project provides 18 modern apartments, replacing ageing properties that were no longer fit for purpose.
The three-storey building includes seven two-bedroom and eleven one-bedroom units, creating secure homes for more than 20 residents in need. The design prioritises livability and long-term sustainability through durable, low-maintenance materials such as face brick and lightweight cladding. Screened balconies provide privacy and passive surveillance, while landscaped areas, including new street trees, contribute to the neighbourhood character.
The project complies with the Building Code of Australia, LAHC Design Standards and Liveable Housing Guidelines, ensuring accessibility, comfort and safety for all residents. Energy-efficient lighting, solar power, and sun hoods over windows further reduce running costs and improve environmental performance.
Located close to Greenhills Shopping Centre, Victoria Street Station and the new Maitland Hospital, the development strengthens local housing options while setting a benchmark for affordable rental accommodation in the region.
