New Elavale land release to add opportunities opposite Eglinton Station

Two years after trains began stopping at Eglinton, the developing neighbourhood on the other side of Marmion Avenue is entering another stage of growth.

Peet is preparing a new land release at Elavale, its Eglinton community between Marmion Avenue and Pipidinny Road.

About Elavale in Eglinton

The upcoming land release will add to an estate that is ultimately planned for 1,031 properties, with stages one to 11 already sold out and development progressively extending across the Eglinton site.

The release comes as much of the infrastructure planned around Elavale and the wider Eglinton area begins to move from future amenity to established infrastructure.

Eglinton Station is now operating directly opposite Elavale, following the opening of the METRONET Yanchep Rail Extension.

Services from the station connect to Joondalup and the Perth CBD in less than an hour, while road connectivity has also expanded through the Mitchell Freeway extension to Romeo Road in Alkimos, around five minutes from the community.

The station is also intended to form part of Eglinton's future town centre, planned opposite Elavale with retail, services, recreation and employment uses.

Within Elavale itself, Kookaburra Park is now open as a central neighbourhood space, incorporating open green areas, shaded seating, dog-friendly paths and space for community activities.

The park forms part of Peet's broader approach to the masterplan, which has been designed around a series of cul-de-sac streets linked by wider landscaped connections. Meandering roads and pockets of greenery have been incorporated into the street network, alongside conservation areas retained throughout the community.

Education infrastructure is also developing around the estate. Eglinton Beach Primary School is around four minutes away, Aspire Early Education and Kindergarten is planned within Elavale, and a future primary school is proposed within the estate. Alkimos College, St James Anglican School and Northshore Christian Grammar School provide further options across the surrounding area.

Elavale's position also places it between the established and emerging centres of Alkimos and Yanchep. Gateway Shopping Precinct and Trinity Village Shopping Centre are in neighbouring Alkimos, while Yanchep Shopping Centre is around six minutes away.

The coast forms another part of that setting. Elavale is around two kilometres from the Eglinton coastline, with Yanchep Lagoon to the north and Alkimos' beaches to the south. Bush Forever land sits to the north of the community, complementing retained vegetation and regional open space around the estate.

Builders in Perth's North West

A number of established Western Australian builders operate across Perth's metropolitan area, offering buyers in the city's north-west a range of design and delivery approaches to pair with land in the region.

Dale Alcock Homes

Dale Alcock Homes is a Western Australian builder established in 1987, delivering residential homes across Perth and the South West.

The builder is part of the ABN Group and specialises in single and double-storey homes as well as medium density projects. Its offering centres on quality design and customer-focused processes, supported by end-to-end building services.

Blueprint Homes

Blueprint Homes is a Perth-based residential builder established in 2005, specialising in single-storey homes designed to suit a range of budgets and lifestyles.

The builder offers house and land packages and custom design options for first home buyers, investors and owner-occupiers, providing one-to-one consultation throughout the building process.

Blueprint Homes has received multiple Housing Industry Association and Master Builders Association awards for service and home design.

New Generation Homes

New Generation Homes (New Gen Homes) is a Perth-based builder operating under the Summit Homes Group, drawing on the group's 48 years of industry experience and more than 47,000 homes delivered across Western Australia.

The builder is positioned around value-driven, conventional home designs for first and second home buyers. Its range covers house and land packages and single-storey designs across narrow to wide frontages, available north and south of the Swan River, and in-house finance support is offered through Westgate Home Loans.

New Generation Homes was named Project Builder of the Year at the Lyn Bennett Memorial Awards in 2022, its second consecutive win at the time. Its building process follows a structured, milestone-based approach from slab through to key handover.

Plunkett Homes

Plunkett Homes has been building in Western Australia since 1903, making it one of the state's most established builders, and has been part of the JWH Group since 2006.

Over more than a century of operation, the builder has helped shape suburbs including Wanneroo, Scarborough, Highgate and Bull Creek. It currently builds across Perth Metro, Greater Perth, the South West, Great Southern and Mid West regions.

Plunkett's range includes single and double-storey homes across Hamptons, Mid-Century, Federation and Contemporary styles, with a choice of Lifestyle and Luxe specification levels. Homes are backed by a lifetime structural warranty, and an in-house design team is available for buyers seeking a more tailored build.

Redink Homes

Redink Homes was established in Perth in 2006 and is part of the Scott Park Group, which has been in partnership with Sumitomo Forestry Australia since 2019. The group builds exclusively in Western Australia, covering the greater Perth metropolitan area with a particular focus on its northern, eastern and southern regions.

The builder's name reflects its approach to custom design, which invites buyers to mark changes to house plans in red ink, and its whole team is trained in drafting plans. Its offering includes house and land packages, a farmhouse range and demolish-and-build options, with finance support available through Lets Finance.

Redink has received more than 21 service awards, including a 2019 Housing Industry Association award and a 2017 Master Builders award, and its homes are backed by a lifetime structural guarantee.

Bottom line

Peet has sought to give Elavale a more traditional neighbourhood structure despite its place within Perth's growing northern corridor, using tree-lined streets, cul-de-sacs, pocket parks and pedestrian and cycling connections across the masterplan.

The developer brings more than 130 years of placemaking experience to the project, with its portfolio spanning residential communities across Australia.

The next release will continue Elavale's residential rollout as Eglinton develops around it, adding new land opportunities within a community now supported by an operating rail station, established parkland and growing education and retail infrastructure.
