HANDOVER DAY
Badagarang
Recently, we handed over the keys to Leia & Michael’s new home in Badagarang.
This one is a rear lane build with a traditional facade, designed to make the most of the block while keeping that classic street appeal. Rear lane homes call for smart planning, and it’s always rewarding to see a home designed flexibly to suit the site and come together so well.
Leia & Michael, it’s been a pleasure building your home. We hope you love it as much as we enjoyed bringing it to life.
If you’ve been thinking about building and want a flexible design that suits your block, come visit us at one of our display homes or get in touch.
We’d love to help you bring your vision to life - reach out to our team if we can answer any questions ❤️

Developer Spotlight.
Ashbourne Estate by NOVM Group.
Set in the heart of Moss Vale, Ashbourne is a thoughtfully planned 124-hectare community bringing together the space and tranquillity of Southern Highlands living with easy access to the town`s cafés, schools, shops and everyday conveniences.
What stands out about Ashbourne:
Over 3.2 hectares of open green space, parklands and lakes woven through the community. Over 7.7km of shared walking and cycling paths, designed for both lifestyle and connection. A masterplan built around family living and long-term community. A location that puts you close to everything Moss Vale offers, with the wider Highlands on your doorstep.
And there`s plenty happening on the ground right now. Stage 2B is well underway, with the majority of bulk earthworks now complete and the next phase of works focused on sewer infrastructure and road pavement construction, the essential groundwork that will bring the future Stage 2B neighbourhood to life. Land registration is anticipated for Q2 2027.
Our own G.J. Gardner connection to Ashbourne is newly opened too! Our Oakview 290 display home opened this month and is open to view most days. Visit the link in our bio to learn more.

AN EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE
Building a home is a big decision. Having the right team around you makes all the difference.
Here`s what one of our clients had to say about their experience building with G.J. Gardner.
"We had an excellent experience with GJ Gardner Shoalhaven from start to finish. The whole process was smooth, well organised, and completely stress-free. Communication was outstanding, and we received friendly weekly updates from Mel on the progress, so we knew exactly where the build was up to.
The whole team was professional, well connected, approachable, and genuinely cared about making the building process a positive experience.
Building a home can be quite stressful, and this was quite the opposite. Massive thanks to Jake who was our supervisor. The quality of the build throughout with all the trades is a credit to yourselves and all of GJ Gardner Shoalhaven. We couldn`t be happier with the service we received and would highly recommend GJ Gardner Shoalhaven Homes to anyone looking to build.
We are at the 90 day maintenance stage and we have no items to report. the quality of the build. Thank you to the entire team - we look forward to working with you again in the future!"
