Homeowners have begun moving into the 160 homes that make up stage two of the architecturally-designed Emerald Lakes development named The Vistas.

The seven stage project will comprise 1400 homes set around man-made waterways. The fully-planned community will also include a commercial precinct, sporting complex and a tavern.

The Vistas, surrounded by the Emerald Lakes Golf Course, features an array of contemporary designs ranging from courtyard homes - which have four homes in one block, each with their own courtyard - to duplexes and free standing homes.

Each of the homes in The Vistas and the soon-to-be-built third stage, The Quays, feature roofs made from COLORBOND® steel.

"We gained the inspiration for designing steeply pitched roofs from Perth's SubiCentro," said Nifsan's Frank Joris.

"For aesthetic purposes each roof is pitched at 35 degrees, with vibrant COLORBOND® steel colours completing the eye-catching look."

Developed by BHP Steel, COLORBOND® steel provides a visually striking, long-lasting cladding material.

The recent introduction of six new colours, together with an advanced super polyester pre-painted coating technology, has given COLORBOND® steel a complete palette of contemporary colours which will stay looking newer for longer.

Several homes within The Vistas also use roofing made from COLORBOND® Metallic steel - a premium steel product that draws on the surrounding environment to create a subtle, yet dynamic metallic look.

Each home is designed to take advantage of the development's panoramic views and lush landscaping, with broad balconies and large expanses of glass creating an open air feel
