of possibility Welcome to a place

Say hello to one of Sydney’s fastest-growing regions.

The Australian and NSW governments are partnering to deliver a 10-year, $4.4 billion road investment program for Western Sydney.

The Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan is designed to capitalise on the economic benefits of the Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport as part of an integrated transport solution for the Western Sydney region and will see thousands of skilled professionals flock to the region.

In addition, Cumberland City Council has invested significantly in the development of the Merrylands Civic Square, which is located just 150 metres from The Gladstone Village. It will serve as a new hub for businesses and residents to meet, enhancing the sense of community in the suburb. There will be a strong connection between Merrylands Civic Square and The Gladstone Village Retail Precinct, further enhancing its value.

Western Sydney looks ahead at bountiful infrastructure development and council investment.

EMPLOYMENT HUBS

Major business districts and employment hubs are within easy reach. This includes the Western Sydney Aerotropolis district which will house thousands of skilled professionals as the new airport kicks into action.

WORLD-CLASS EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

The Western Sydney University Campus at Parramatta is only a short drive, train or bus ride away. Granville TAFE and multiple public and private schools are just as close and popular within international student communities.

MEDICAL & HEALTH FACILITIES

Care is close by with Holroyd Private Hospital, Westmead Public Hospital, Westmead Private Hospital and Westmead Children's Hospital.

SEAMLESS

TRANSPORT

Although already connected to an expansive public transport line, The Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan will see an investment of over $4 billion provide Merrylands with numerous route improvements and linkages that will further enhance the region’s accessibility and convenience.

Embrace

tranquillity

Nature, family, friends, lifestyle

̶ it’s all steps away.

With a total of 18 parks and recreational spaces in the region (not to mention the 2,500sqm of open space in The Gladstone Village masterplan), the outdoors is always calling.

The region’s major historical site and urban park, Parramatta Park, is only a brief 15-minute cycle or nine-minute drive away.

Abundance of open space is increasingly becoming a vital consideration for homeowners and renters, so you can see why so many are looking to call The Gladstone Village home.

Live a life of leisure

Moments from fresh tastes and new experiences.

The Gladstone Village is a fully-fledged community, not just an apartment block. Residents have access to a range of recreational facilities, plus a small collection of retailers and services on the ground floor and level 1. These include Mini Masterminds (early childhood education) and Desi Cutz (men’s barber), while the Fitness Gym will keep you looking trim. The local grocer stocks fresh food and household essentials. Feeling peckish? Granata’s serves up great Italian meals day and night, plus excellent coffee and desserts.

At your fingertips

A grand investment for today and tomorrow

Merrylands sits within an ever-growing pocket of Greater Western Sydney one set to receive $4.4 billion in government infrastructure investment over the next ten years. The Gladstone Village sits in the centre of it all.

The region has seen significant population growth and a rising demand for rental opportunities over the last decade. Its proximity to expanding education, health and employment hubs has helped fuel this shift, with families, older residents and professionals finding security in its convenience. The planned Western Sydney Airport only increases the locale’s wealth of opportunity.

DEMOGRAPHICS

The plan will support over 4,000 jobs and draw further attention to the budding productivity centre.

POPULATION GROWTH

The demand for housing has significantly risen alongside the steady population growth of the Cumberland City local government area over the last decade. A higher need for quality residencies means purchasers in Merrylands will likely see aboveaverage capital growth rates over the next ten years.
