About the project

Located 11 kilometres west of the CBD, this 38.5 hectare segment of Seaton’s north-west will be the focus of a new master plan which aims to rejuvenate the area and create a place where people want to live, work and play.

Renewal SA, in partnership with the  South Australian Housing Trust, will deliver this revitalisation. It is proposed that the new mix of housing will include 1,450 new homes with more than 20% offered as affordable housing through both rental and sales opportunities. In addition, nearly 400 South Australian Housing Trust homes will be redeveloped as part of the suburb’s reimagining to allow for more fit-for-purpose housing.

Seaton is a place that respects the past while embracing the future. It’s adding to the story of the suburb and creating more opportunities than ever before.

Affordable homes will be listed through HomeSeeker SA. Terms and conditions and eligibility criteria apply visit Homeseeker for more information.

Project progress and status

Urban renewal has a significant impact on the community, from a social, economic and environmental perspective.

This project will demonstrate how diverse housing design provides greater housing choices, improved housing infrastructure, integrated planned open spaces, revived streetscapes and overall improved neighbourhood amenities.

The project area, which is bordered Frederick Road, Glenburnie Street, West Lakes Boulevard and Tapleys Hill Road, will deliver approximately 1,450 new residences comprised of vacant land market sales, house and land packages, affordable homes and social housing outcomes.

Work on stage 1 has commenced. Covering 2.1 hectares, civil works are now underway with construction commencing on the project’s first 137 homes. New, high-quality social housing will also form a key part of this initial stage, as will the inclusion of affordable apartments as well as market land sales and house and land packages.

Subsequent stages of the broader Seaton project will be delivered via a rolling program starting in 2025, to bring a consistent supply of new allotments to market across the life of the project.

Seaton residents will benefit from improved streetscapes and upgrades to public spaces, including new reserves and a substantially increased tree canopy to complement the existing green space at Pedlar Reserve.

Renewal SA is currently accepting applications for a CHP partnership under the Housing Australia Future Fund Facility (HAFFF), for more information visit development opportunities.
