Retirement village operator and developer Summerset handed over the Hilltop Reserve extension on Mannavue Boulevard in Cranbourne North to Casey Council on Sunday 27 October.
The Hilltop Reserve extension is a new park for the local community designed and constructed by Summerset as part of the new Cranbourne North Retirement Village development.
The revitalised extension features walking paths, seating benches, interpretative signage, and extensive tree and shrub planting.
The day, which coincided with International Grandparents Day, was filled with family-friendly activities, and cultural ceremonies and provided charitable fundraising for a local charity chosen by Summerset residents, Backpacks for Vic Kids, an Australian charity providing essential material aid to displaced children.
Chief operations officer of Summerset Australia Stewart Scott said he was thrilled to see many families enjoying the newly created space.
“We are honoured to hand over this beautiful park to Casey Council and the Cranbourne North community,” he said.
“It’s a place of connection, reflection, and joy, and we are proud to be creating such a meaningful community asset that future generations can enjoy.
“Today’s event reflects our commitment to giving back and creating environments that bring people together.”
