Pacific Link Housing has finished its latest development, Pacific Lakes at Canton Beach.
Completed in June, the two-storey complex comprises 14 units, offering a mix of social, affordable and market-rate rental units.
The development received $1.92M in grant funding under the NSW Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) program known as the Community Housing Innovation Fund (CHIF) which will ensure six units will be used for social housing allocations, addressing the critical need for more affordable housing on the Central Coast.
Pacific Link Housing Chairman Wal Edgell said government support is key to helping deliver quality new affordable housing in perpetuity for Central Coast residents.
“It not only supports our mission as a community housing provider but directly helps individuals and families establish a stable and dignified place to call home and feel supported by members of our community,” he said.
All apartments in Pacific Lakes are architecturally designed, featuring private terraces and courtyards on the ground floor and balconies on the upper floor.
The complex was constructed by Skope Constructions and offers a high standard of living for its residents.
Minister for the Central Coast David Harris said he looks forward to seeing tenants move into the high-quality apartments.
“The Minns Government continues to fund the development of new housing by community housing providers like Pacific Link Housing who support their tenants and communities to thrive,” he said.
Pacific Link Housing CEO Ian Lynch said with the number of people in rental stress on the Central Coast rising, it is more important than ever to continue to provide safe, secure and affordable housing options.
“Pacific Lakes is a significant addition to Pacific Link Housing’s portfolio of mixed tenancy developments which are designed to meet the diverse housing needs of our community,” he said.
Member for Terrigal Adam Crouch said funding for the project had been made available by the previous Liberal National Government.
“Pacific Link Housing should be commended for another on-time, on-budget delivery in partnership with the NSW Government,” he said.
Pacific Link Housing has a further 80 units currently at various stages of progress.
