Located just 9km from the Melbourne CBD and in the heart of an established community, The Fabric is Mirvac's latest sustainable townhome community offering 7-Star green living.

Offering brand new two and three-bedroom homes starting at $695,000, the Altona North development has been thoughtfully designed by Mirvac’s award-winning team to prioritise sustainability comfort, style and functionality.

Part of the sustainable initiatives on offer include fully electric energy efficient appliances, 7-star NatHERS energy rating, rooftop solar PV and battery storage, plus you can monitor your own energy usage through an app to identify and minimise costs and expenditure.


Smart design layouts take advantage of optimum solar orientation and ensure cross ventilation and natural light into your home is maximised. Coupled with high performance double glazing to all windows and doors, additional sealing of the building envelope and upgraded insulation, all homes achieve a minimum 7-star NatHERS energy rating, meaning your home is more comfortable to live in.  

By designing homes to maximise cross ventilation and natural light, indoor air quality is improved, ensuring homes at The Fabric are as healthy as they can be.

Townhomes at The Fabric are fully-electric and are designed to generate enough renewable energy to offset the average household energy usage over a year. The sustainability features have been selected with a focus on reducing energy use and generating renewable energy, both of which assist in reducing the cost of energy bills. 

The Fabric also features top of the line water reuse facilities with both passive irrigation and an innovative rainwater harvesting system.

Designed with walkability in mind, the masterplan takes you on a journey through streets lined with leafy green trees, contemporary architecture and beautiful private front gardens.

A special feature of The Fabric townhomes is a seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors in collaboration with Eckersley Landscape Designers. 

Outside your doorstep, explore nature with the future Patchwork Park as the landscape masterpiece to the community designed for all ages. Patchwork Park is planned to feature barbeque facilities and shelters, large kickabout areas, edible planter beds, and a custom-designed playground including climbing equipment, slides, connector tunnels and musical instruments, all set amongst large shady trees.

Mirvac has partnered with Homes for Homes, an innovative not-for-profit scheme led by The Big Issue, to assist homeless and disadvantaged Australians. 0.1% from the sale of every home at The Fabric has been pledged. We also encourage our customers to contribute the same from future sales of their home.

Located amongst local hot spots for diverse cuisines, tasty treats and fresh market stalls, find joy in the ability to walk to your closest supermarket, transport hub and even the beach.

Construction on the future townhomes are set to begin in early 2021.
