Life is just naturally better when you have everything on your doorstep. And the new community located in Perth’s leafy southern suburb of Treeby, has it all.
Whether you’re a first or second time home buyer, a young family or you want to live away from the hustle and bustle but still be connected, creating the ideal lifestyle is easy, when you move into a community like Kara.
Get closer to it all
Living in Kara, everything is conveniently within reach. You’re just minutes away from a range of amenities, with quick access to shopping, cafes, recreation and sporting facilities, parklands and schools. Let’s explore what’s nearby and within walking distance from your front door at Kara.
Parklands and reserves
If you’re looking for a relaxing place to reside with wide open spaces, tree-lined streets and the natural bushland as your backdrop, then pay a visit to Kara.
You’ll find infinite ways to escape the stresses of everyday life, just by heading outside. At Kara, there’s a park centrally located within 5 minutes walking distance from your driveway – no matter which side of the community you live in.
Treeby has pockets of parklands that appeal to all age groups, with numerous playgrounds at Calleya Estate where you can let the kids roam free. Each park has their own unique flavour whether that’s a junior BMX track, trampolines, a tower slide, mini tennis court or endless climbing structures – there’s no shortage of things to do.
Teenagers will appreciate the expansive multipurpose sports fields where they can get stuck into a game of footy with mates, or shoot some hoops on the hardcourts. Even your family’s four legged friend can enjoy some ‘me time’ at their very own dedicated and enclosed dog park.
Shopping & dining
A short 2km car ride and Cockburn Gateway Shopping City puts your daily needs within reach, with easy access to 170 retailers that includes the major supermarket chains, popular fashion retailers, service providers and specialty stores.
For your must-have coffee hit, Mooba Café in Treeby is your little local to help you start the day right, and the dining piazza at Cockburn Gateway has got everyone’s tastebuds covered morning, noon and night.
Fitness and recreation
Treeby offers various opportunities to keep fit and be active, and being part of the community in Kara means everything is close by. Join the Treeby park run with sessions running every Saturday morning at 8am. Calleya also welcomes you to their free fitness classes during the week. Hosted by Live Life Get Active, you can burn some calories with cross training and boxing classes, or unwind after a long day with yoga.
If you prefer a slower pace, then take advantage of the many walkways for your morning stroll, ride along the biking trails or stop by Grandis Park to make use of the fitness equipment in your own time. Wander through the orchard of olives, lemons and lime trees located on Amethyst Street and you’ll come across more ways to reach your daily step count.
Further afield, you’ll find Kara is closely connected to Cockburn Aquatic and Recreation Centre just 5km away. This leading edge facility boasts indoor and outdoor heated pools, three adrenalin pumping waterslides for the kids, a 6 court stadium, 3 group fitness studios and a state of the art health club that overlooks the Fremantle Dockers training grounds. Not a bad way to get your workout in!
