INTRODUCTION
At Satterley Property Group, we’re committed to creating beautiful communities. As part of this commitment, it is
essential to ensure that the quality of the homes in Botanical reflect the quality of the estate. The masterplan and design
principles for the estate encourage a diversity of housing options to suit the lifestyle expectations of future residents.
The masterplan will promote healthy lifestyle, convenience and safety. The road networks and street orientation have been
designed to maximise outlook and offer good connectivity to open spaces and existing and new neighbourhood facilities.
These guidelines provide you with an opportunity to enhance the architectural appeal of your home.
They also certify that your neighbours will adhere to the same standards, thereby ensuring the
enhancement of the estate overall. All of our residents will benefit from living in a beautiful estate.
