Ask Greg: Is Windsor Downs a gated community?

🏡 𝗔𝗦𝗞 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗚 | 𝗜𝗦 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗦𝗢𝗥 𝗗𝗢𝗪𝗡𝗦 𝗔 𝗚𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗗 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬?

It’s one of the questions I’m asked most often about this beautiful acreage estate.

The answer might surprise you!

✅ Not a gated community

✅ Torrens Title properties

✅ No strata or community title levies

✅ Voluntary $150 annual contribution to the Home Owners Association

✅ Over 360 acreage homes

✅ Town water, sewer, natural gas, underground power and cabled NBN

🌳 Bordered by the Windsor Downs Nature Reserve and South Creek, this prestigious estate offers something increasingly difficult to find — the convenience of city living combined with the space, privacy and tranquillity of an acreage lifestyle.

Having lived in the Hawkesbury for more than 50 years, I know just how special communities like Windsor Downs are.

Ask Greg: Does a water licence add value?

𝗔𝗦𝗞 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗚 | 𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗔 𝗪𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗥 𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗔𝗗𝗗 𝗩𝗔𝗟𝗨𝗘?💧

When buying or selling acreage in the Hawkesbury, access to water can be a significant consideration.

But does having a water licence automatically make a property more valuable?

Not necessarily.

The type of licence, its conditions, permitted water use and the needs of potential buyers can all influence its value.

For some acreage buyers, particularly those looking at farming, horticulture or other agricultural pursuits, secure access to water can be a major attraction.

It’s another example of why not all acres are created equal.

Ask Greg: Are all acreages created equal?

Here’s something worth knowing about Hawkesbury acreage.

Two properties can have exactly the same land size but very different values.

Why?

Because it’s not just about how much land you own. It’s about how usable that land is.

🌿 Level versus steep country

🌳 Cleared versus heavily timbered land

💧 Drainage, water and flood considerations

🚜 Access and practical usability

🏡 Zoning and permitted uses

These factors can make a significant difference to both lifestyle opportunities and property value.
