The natural beauty and family-friendly design of Lara Lakes Estate is what initially attracted Neale Pretorius and his family to the community.
Having long admired the area, Neale and his wife Esther were drawn to the estate’s proximity to local attractions like the You Yangs and Serendip Sanctuary, which they believed provided the perfect setting for their family’s active lifestyle.
“We’ve always loved Lara and had been thinking about moving here for some time,” Neale explained.
“When we saw that Lara Lakes Estate was so close to the You Yangs and Serendip Sanctuary and offered spacious, well-designed homes, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for,” Neale said.
The couple chose a lot in Lara Lakes Estate for its combination of space, views, and affordability.
“The lot overlooked the wetlands and was the perfect size for its price,” Neale said.
“With kids and a dog, having access to open space was really important to us.”
Neale said he was extremely appreciative of the smooth buying process and said Bisinella Developments removed any element of stress.
“Dealing with Bisinella was incredibly easy from the first phone call,” he said.
“Building a house can be very stressful, but working with Bisinella was a pleasure,” he said.
Neale explained that what set Bisinella apart was their commitment to customer service.
“We really appreciated Bisinella’s transparency and communication,” he said.
“They kept us updated throughout the entire process, even when there were delays caused by bad weather and COVID.
“Their regular video updates of the development was very thoughtful and removed the need for us to travel to site to see the progress.
“And given they erected our fences in record time meant we could move in straight away, which was a huge bonus.”
With their move now complete, Neale and his family are excited to settle into their new home and embrace the lifestyle that Lara Lakes offers.
“We plan to make this house our home for the long term.
“It’s the perfect blend of nature and like-minded neighbours, and we love the slower pace of life here.”
“The open areas are so well-planned and beautiful – it’s great to know that our kids and dog will have plenty of room to run around and enjoy the outdoors.”
For families like theirs, Neale believes Lara Lakes Estate provides the perfect lifestyle opportunity.
“It’s a peaceful place to call home, with large lots at competitive prices and we love that it’s so close to central-Geelong.”
Their advice for anyone considering Lara Lakes Estate is simple:
“Reach out and talk to the Bisinella team,” he said.
“Lara is a wonderful place to live, and you won’t regret making the move.”
