Let’s get started.
The Rise of Lifestyle Living in Burpengary
Burpengary, located in the heart of Moreton Bay, is home to several well-designed lifestyle communities built for active over-50s and retirees. Among the most sought-after are:
- Freshwater by Ingenia Lifestyle – known for its resort-style facilities and community feel
- Riverbend Burpengary – a peaceful riverside setting that blends nature and convenience
- GemLife Moreton Bay – offering luxury homes and a strong focus on independent living
These villages are all about enjoying life with fewer hassles — but that doesn’t mean compromising on comfort. In fact, many homes in these communities are modern, light-filled and open-plan, which is wonderful… unless the heat, glare or lack of privacy starts creeping in.
That’s where custom-made window solutions make all the difference.
Outdoor Living Made Easy: Awnings & Zipscreens
With Queensland’s sunshine and subtropical climate, outdoor living is a big part of daily life in Burpengary. Whether you’re relaxing on the verandah or entertaining family and friends, you’ll want outdoor areas that are usable, private, and protected.
Top Outdoor Products for Lifestyle Homes
Zipscreens
Ideal for patios, decks and alfresco areas in places like GemLife or Riverbend, Zipscreens offer:
- Protection from harsh sunlight and strong winds
- Blockout or mesh fabric options for privacy and airflow
- A neat, modern design — great for keeping with village aesthetics
- Manual or motorised operation
They’re one of our top-selling solutions for lifestyle villages because they allow year-round use of outdoor areas, without feeling boxed in.
Folding Arm Awnings
If you love flexible shade, folding arm awnings are a brilliant option. These retractable awnings are great for:
- Large decks or courtyard spaces
- Homes with minimal structural support (no posts needed)
- Letting in light when you want it — and shade when you need it
Fixed Guide Awnings
For windows exposed to full sun — especially west-facing ones — fixed guide awnings help reduce indoor heat while still allowing airflow.
They’re an excellent choice for villas in Freshwater by Ingenia Lifestyle, where the layout of homes often maximises natural light.
Indoor Solutions: Blinds & Shutters for Style & Control
Inside the home, choosing the right window furnishings adds more than just style — it gives you control over temperature, light, and privacy, without making the space feel closed in.
- Plantation Shutters
These are a favourite in all three villages — and for good reason. They’re:
- Elegant and timeless
- Available in PVC (perfect for Queensland conditions) or aluminium
- Easy to clean and maintain
- Great for controlling airflow and light
Whether it’s a bedroom overlooking the road or a living room with large front-facing windows, shutters help keep things cool, private and quiet.
- Roller Blinds
Roller blinds are a sleek, simple option that suit any room. Choose from:
- Blockout fabrics for bedrooms and media rooms
- Light-filtering fabrics for living areas
- Sunscreen fabrics for privacy without sacrificing your view
They’re ideal for the minimal, modern interiors common in lifestyle homes.
- Veri Shades
Combining the flow of curtains with the practicality of blinds, Veri Shades are great for:
- Sliding doors leading out to the patio
- Large windows in open-plan spaces
- Homes with limited space for traditional curtains
We often install these in GemLife Moreton Bay homes, where wide openings and contemporary styling are common.
