New RV village for grey nomads

Work has started on Queensland's first RV-focussed residential community, a 210 home housing estate on the Fraser Coast catering to the needs of the over 50s, grey nomad population.

The RV Homebase facility has been designed from the ground up to cater for caravan and motorhome owners, and will offer residents a low maintenance, six star energy rated home, with the ability to park a full-size caravan or motorhome undercover alongside their home, connected to power, water and a dump point.

In addition, residents will have unlimited access to RV focussed facilities, including a high tech RV wash, an RV hobby workshop, happy hour hut, outdoor kitchen and fire pits, as well as other facilities including a 25m heated lap pool, fitness centre, bowls rinks, community centre/dance floor, and dog park.

"Caravan and motorhome owners have long struggled with integrating their RV with their lifestyle, and juggling the logistics of managing their residential home while travelling, and our village has been designed to eliminate many of the traditional headaches the grey nomad community faces," said Chairman of RV Homebase Fraser Coast Peter Shadforth

"We have worked closely with a full team of design and building professionals to master plan a village that actively supports the RV lifestyle, and provides meaningful solutions to real world challenges like undercover RV storage, home security while travelling, RV cleaning and maintenance, end even routine tasks like mail forwarding and lawn mowing," he said.

House packages start at $285,000 for a one-bedroom house, while three-bedroom houses start at $334,000.
