Quality Lifestyle
The Old East, and Brooklyn Village in particular, offers residents a delightful suburban area providing a quality lifestyle together with sought-after security. With a modest number of 157 homes, the closure enables a village ambiance. The Brooklyn Village has almost everything that you need for living in a pleasant community and providing opportunity for quality time with your family.

Safety & Security
This priority requirement for all residents is well provided for by our gated community. Since the 2017 closure, Brooklyn Village, suitably guarded with specific boundaries, has had an enviable record of greatly enhanced safety and security with dramatic drop in incidents of crime. The specialist security service includes a 24-hour guard on duty at the main entrance and proper surveillance systems at various places that help keep an eye on activities in the village. To preserve security whilst giving some access flexibility, there are only a few secondary entrance and exit points available for members’ use. Entrance and exit records are kept.

Higher Property Value
Gated community lifestyle benefits are invariably also mirrored in a discernible increase to property value compared to those that aren’t. Therefore, property in this area remains sought-after which creates a higher demand for property. The misconception of mere higher living costs should be considered against many related actual reduced costs, for instance lower insurance premiums, individual home security fees and the like.

Safe for Children
If you have children, there can be no better place for your family home. As indicated, we enjoy a secured and monitored entrance, and safer neighbourhood and streets. Children can safely play outside without the parents worrying. The large fenced open park, ‘Niemeyer Square’, is a wonderful public asset for the enjoyment of young and old alike, with play equipment for children, plenty space for flying kites or setting up a volleyball net and for walks and relaxing.

Green Environment
Some factors that help provide a more environmentally friendly space for our community.

Traffic
Being served by only one public entrance, all usual ‘through-traffic’, even potential rat-running, has been eliminated. Bringing such positive provisions back into the neighbourhood, the family homes can enjoy a safer and much improved streetscape with less air and noise pollution.

Greenery
Most of the homes include gardens and there are many trees and other types of greenery throughout the area. This not only offers a more “close to nature” feel but also contributes to a fresher and healthier environment. The old Jacaranda trees are cherished in this area.
