Project: Single Affordable Home – Built-Form Delivery


Overview:

In the quiet, character-filled town of Dennington, we’re delivering a single affordable home designed specifically to support a local family in need. While small in scale, this project speaks volumes — proving that even one well-placed home can make a lasting impact in a regional community facing housing pressure.

We’re excited to produce another affordable home under our growing delivery arm. Like our Colac project, this is smart, community-first development that creates real impact. Helping more people into homes they love is exactly why we do this.

This home also sets the foundation for future affordable housing initiatives in the region as we continue to partner with government and community stakeholders to deliver where it matters most.


Project Highlights:

  • Site size: Approx. 350m²

  • Proposed Outcome: 1 affordable home tailored to local housing needs

  • Objective: Deliver stability, affordability, and dignity to a regional family

  • Project Valuation: $599,000+


Why We Love It:

This project may be small, but its impact is big. It represents everything FRWD believes in intentional development, community-first thinking, and action over talk. We’re proud to be delivering another affordable home for a deserving local family and to continue shaping the future of regional towns like Dennington — one project at a time.

Project: Single Affordable Home – Built-Form Delivery


Overview

In the quiet, character-filled town of Dennington, Dennington Heart is a single affordable home project designed to bring stability, security, and opportunity to a local family.

While small in scale, this project speaks volumes — proving that even one well-placed home can make a lasting impact in a regional community facing housing pressure.

Close to schools, shops, transport, and community services, this home combines convenience, comfort, and connection — ensuring the family who moves in has access to everything they need.

This project also sets the foundation for future affordable housing initiatives in the region as we continue to partner with government and community stakeholders to deliver where it matters most.


Project Highlights

  • Location: Prime central position — 1.1km to Woolworths, 450m to St Johns Primary, 1.1km to Goodstart Early Learning, and 1.4km to Warrnambool Stadium.

  • Site size: Approx. 350m²

  • Proposed Outcome: 1 affordable 5-bedroom home tailored to local needs

  • Objective: Deliver stability, affordability, and dignity to a regional family


Why Dennington Heart?

  • Critical rental market pressure: Warrnambool’s rental vacancy rate is just 0.8%, well below the 4% benchmark, leaving very limited rental options available.

    Low unemployment and strong demand: Unemployment sits at only 2%, reflecting strong job availability across industries — but without more affordable housing, essential workers are being locked out.

    Affordability under strain: Median rents are around $500 per week, with nearly one-third of renters experiencing housing stress.

    Regional growth and stability: Warrnambool is home to almost 36,000 residents and more than 18,500 jobs in healthcare, education, retail, and food processing, making it a critical regional hub.
