Armstrong Green, a fab community from RCA Villages in Armstrong Creek, is gradually taking shape, with some lucky residents already making themselves right at home in one of the luxury homes now on offer.
Since some of the residents live in a home design with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a spacious living area with access to a covered alfresco area, there’s plenty of space to invite family, grandkids or friends to stay during the upcoming holiday season. Or if family is holidaying in the area, grandma and grandpa can host them in coastal style.
And, with the plethora of attractions surrounding Armstrong Green, they’ll be spoilt for choice to make any stay or visit a memorable one.
Just five minutes down the road, there’s the magnificent Connewarre State Wildlife Reserve. Here they’ll find 150 bird species flying over the largest remnant vegetation on the Bellarine Peninsula, but it’s not all about bushwalks and twitching.
Fishing, windsurfing and canoeing on Lake Connewarre give active families and kids plenty to keep them happy. They can kick-start their days with a gorgeous brekkie at Warralily Cockatoo in the heart of Armstrong Creek, or finish their day with a dinner that ranges through gourmet pizzas, modern-Aus sharing plates and mains. Kids are made welcome and well catered for.
Sullies Kiosk, another foodie delight in town, offers brekkie, brunch and lunch packed with creativity and deliciousness. Another one for the kids to feel special.
Great coastal towns surround Armstrong Green, so ducking out for a game of golf (Barwon Heads has some of the finest in Victoria), taking the kids to a theme park, tucking into gourmet food and sampling local wines is a breeze.
Barwon Heads is just 10 minutes away by car, Torquay is 15, and Ocean Grove 20. Should the ‘bigger smoke’ call, Geelong is only 20 minutes away, and there’s always stacks to see and do in the holiday season – the city’s famous Christmas windows and equally renowned Christmas tree on the bay for two. Worth a visit just to see the look of wonder on the kids’ faces.
Once the outstanding facilities promised at Armstrong Green come to fruition, this will be a mighty fine place for active, independent people to set up a mighty fine life. And they won’t be able to keep the grandkids away….
