The official opening of MAAS Group’s new Southlakes Land Sales Office and Brett Harvey Display Home in Dubbo kicked off earlier this month with a party for locals to come along and enjoy.

The event on Saturday, 8 November, began with a short formal ceremony and ribbon-cutting, with speeches from John Grey, General Manager, Residential Real Estate, at the MAAS Group, and Home Building Manager Clint Haley.

Both highlighted the milestone as a reflection of Southlakes’ continued growth and MAAS Group’s long-term investment in the region.

Following the formalities, the event transformed into a lively community block party, with families enjoying a free barbecue, petting zoo, face painting, showbags, and the large construction trucks and dozers from the site on display.

The event drew strong attendance from local residents and community groups, creating a vibrant atmosphere that captured the true spirit of the Southlakes Estate, John Grey said,

“It was fantastic to see so many familiar faces come together to celebrate this milestone,” John enthused.

“The Southlakes community continues to grow, and this new Sales Office and Display Home are key steps in our commitment to creating a connected and thriving neighbourhood,” he added.

The celebration also provided the perfect opportunity to share an update on The Village, Southlakes, the estate’s upcoming retail precinct.

Construction is now underway on the neighbourhood shopping centre, which will be anchored by Coles and include specialty retailers, with limited retail slots still available.

Scheduled to open in mid-2026, The Village will form the commercial heart of Southlakes, delivering everyday convenience and connection to the growing community.

The new Southlakes Land Sales Office is located at 10 Stream Avenue, Dubbo, and is now open to the public for land and development enquiries.
