Luxury, lakes, latte and lorikeets 18 km from the city

A stunning new $33 million luxury home and townhouse development will launch on Saturday 8
October at the award winning University Hill in Bundoora.

The Marq, designed by cutting edge architect Hayball, offers 30 Premium Homes and 39 Town
Homes in a choice of exclusive waterfront or parkland environments.

In keeping with the luxury location Hayball has successfully created beautiful homes that provide a
level of internal space and functionality found in few other projects in Melbourne all located in an
unrepeatable urban/bushland edge just 18km from the Melbourne CBD.

The Marq offers two distinct floor plate styles – Parkfront and Townhomes – that have been designed
to afford a supreme level of comfort and light filled living areas. The homes are generously
proportioned and many offer views overlooking the wetlands and Plenty Gorge.

“University Hill has been designed to replicate inner city living with an established town centre just
500 m from your front door offering employment, retailing and entertainment,” said Oliver Hume
Executive Director Apartments Mr Jamie Kay.

“From your back door you can walk or cycle along magnificent walking tracks around lakes, pristine
bush land with and ancient trees.”

• Parkfront homes are two-storey detached with their living spaces on the upper level to
optimise the views. Each Parkfront home will have a double garage, 3 bedrooms plus study, 2
bathrooms, private courtyard and balcony, contemporary facades and quality fixtures and
fittings. Parkfront homes are connected to the wetlands and Plenty Gorge. The homes range in
size from 21.6 squares to 25.3 squares.

• Townhomes are terraces comprising 3 bedrooms, a double garage, 2 bathrooms and offer
living room downstairs, bedrooms upstairs and a balcony to front master bedroom to take
advantage of the spectacular views. The luxury townhomes range in size from 18.4 squares –
22.6 squares.

The north facing homes are configured to take full advantage of the unique location, creating open
light-filled living habitats, and all within the highly sought after University Hill – voted best Australia’s
master plan community in the UDIA 2011 awards. All homes have been built using the latest ESD
principles and offered with freehold title and no body corporate fees.

Jamie Kay said the development is to be constructed by leading Victorian home builder Boutique
Homes to ensure the highest levels of quality are delivered to purchasers.

“University Hill is a landmark master planned community approx. 18km from Melbourne’s CBD and is
regarded as one of the most innovative and eagerly anticipated mixed use precinct developments
ever undertaken in Melbourne,” he said.

Providing a living blueprint for future communities, it was purposefully designed to provide people
with more choices about how and where they want to live and work in an relaxed and open
environment.

Onsite amenities include the town centre with shopping complex (supermarket, boutique stores,
‘Brand Junction’); services complex (gym, cafés, restaurants, banks, childcare centre) natural
settings (parks, gardens, walking and cycling tracks), public transport and a proposed entertainment
complex (cinema).

Also close by is the Mill Park shopping Centre, Bundoora Square shopping Centre and Northland
Shopping Centre, Greensborough Plaza,
Education is also a feature of the region as University Hill is opposite the RMIT west campus and
close to La Trobe University Medical Centre and Morang South Primary School.

Voted best master plan community by UDIA(Urban Development Industry of Australia) in 2011
University Hill offers walking tracks and bike tracks through wetlands and plenty gorge as well as the
Blue Lake Picnic area and Kelynack Reserve.

Civil construction is to commence early 2012 with completion due in early to mid 2013.

An exciting opportunity this development containing 69 elevated and architecturally designed townhomes is located within an exclusive enclave of the award winning University Hill.

Surrounded by lush parkland, pristine nature reserve, wetlands and plenty of room to roam and explore, The Marq feels like s secluded hideaway, thoughtfully integrated into it’s natural landscape. Townhomes will be luxurious and spacious many with waterfront or parkfront views.

Offering a lifestyle that is picturesque and tranquil, yet close enough to major roads and transport networks such as the Western Ring Road and tram and bus services, The Marq defies it’s location just 18kms from Melbourne’s CBD.
