Woodsong is proud to welcome Afra to the team, where she’ll be working alongside Zak, as the new Estate Manager—a passionate, people-first professional with a strong history of success in design, sales, and community building. Afra brings a rare blend of creativity, experience, and genuine care for people, making her the ideal guide for homebuyers and future residents as they navigate every step of their Woodsong journey.

A Career Built on Design, Sales, and Human Connection

Afra’s career began in the world of interior design, where she spent over a decade transforming homes and commercial spaces into inspiring places to live and work. With a Master’s in Interior Design, she developed a deep understanding of how thoughtful design enhances everyday life.

Her love for helping people create beautiful, functional homes eventually led her to the building and real estate industry. Over four successful years with Simonds Homes and Home Group, Afra thrived as a Sales Consultant, guiding buyers through one of life’s most important decisions—purchasing a new home.

Her natural ability to connect with people then opened doors in land sales. Afra joined the team at Oliver Hume, working across the popular Alamora and Aspire estates, before stepping into the role of Estate Manager at Coridale in Lara, where she spent 18 months leading community engagement and driving strong sales results.

Now at Woodsong, Afra brings her passion, professionalism, and personalised approach to a vibrant new community designed for living in tune with nature.

Why Afra Was Drawn to Woodsong’s Unique Vision

Afra was drawn to Woodsong for the same reasons buyers are falling in love with the estate: its unique harmony between modern living and natural beauty.

“One of the most appealing aspects of Woodsong is its integration of contemporary lifestyle with the natural environment,” she says. “The parklands, waterways, and conservation areas create a calm, uplifting atmosphere. It’s the best of both worlds—urban convenience with the serenity of nature.”

Strategically located in Mickleham, Woodsong offers easy access to established amenities in both Mickleham and Craigieburn, while also looking ahead with exciting new infrastructure. A primary school is set to open next to the estate in early 2026, and a second school planned within the community, making it an ideal place for growing families.

A Community Where Balance and Belonging Come Naturally

Afra describes the Woodsong lifestyle as one that promotes health, balance, and true community connection. With walking and bike trails, sports facilities, open spaces, and inviting picnic spots, residents can enjoy an active, outdoor lifestyle without sacrificing comfort or convenience.

For first-home buyers, Woodsong offers an exciting and accessible path to homeownership. A diverse range of lot sizes and house and land packages are available, with options that qualify for government grants, making it easier than ever to own your first home.

“Strong and consistent sales reflect buyer confidence in the area,” Afra says. “It’s reassuring for anyone thinking of putting down roots here.”

Why Residents Fall in Love with Woodsong

According to Afra, feedback from residents and visitors is clear—people are drawn to Woodsong for its green outlook, lifestyle vision, and sense of community.

Easy access to Craigieburn Central, local schools, medical centres, and scenic attractions such as Mt Ridley Nature Reserve and Woodlands Historic Park add to the estate’s appeal. Plus, being just 29 km from Melbourne CBD and 15 km from Tullamarine Airport makes commuting and travel incredibly convenient.

“This is more than just a place to live—it’s a place to belong,” Afra shares.

Afra’s Dream Woodsong Lifestyle – If She Were Buying In

“If I were buying in Woodsong,” Afra says with a smile, “I’d be most excited about living close to nature, in a community that values design, sustainability, and connection.”

With her background in architecture and love for heritage, Afra truly appreciates the intentional planning and thoughtful design that defines the estate.

“Every detail at Woodsong feels considered. It’s designed to help people live well—not just today, but for years to come.”

Beyond the Office

When Afra’s not guiding new buyers or working on community initiatives, she enjoys spending time with her three adult children, tending to her lush indoor plant collection, dining out with friends, and travelling the world. With a keen eye for architecture, she especially loves exploring new cities by wandering through their historic buildings and cultural landmarks.

At Woodsong, Afra brings that same curiosity, empathy, and energy to every interaction. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, upsizer, or looking for a lifestyle change, Afra is here to help you feel at home from day one.
