Mambourin Green celebrates first settlements
From renting in Mambourin to purchasing the first lot at Mambourin Green, discover why Ashnita and Shalendra chose Frasers Property for their homeownership and investment journey.
A significant milestone has been reached at Mambourin Green, with the settlement of the community's very first purchaser.
Making the achievement even more special, the first lot owner is existing Mambourin resident Ashnita Ashalni Chand and her husband, Shalendra Krisha Rao, who secured the very first lot released at Mambourin Green for their first investment property.
Having moved to Australia from Fiji in 2022, the couple initially rented in Mambourin before purchasing land and building their first home in the neighbouring community. After experiencing firsthand the lifestyle, convenience and community spirit on offer, investing in Mambourin Green was an easy decision.

From Renters to Homeowners and Investors
When Ashnita and Shalendra first arrived in Melbourne, renting in Mambourin gave them the opportunity to experience the community before putting down roots.
"We really liked Mambourin because it was close to our work and all the essentials," Ashnita says. "The highlight for us has been Mambourin Marketplace. Having access to fresh food, multicultural grocery stores, restaurants and everyday conveniences has made life so much easier."
The couple were also drawn to the area's family-friendly amenities, including schools, childcare centres, parks and Club Mambourin.
"I use the gym nearly every day, and we enjoy the pools, parks and community spaces regularly," says Ashnita.
Why They Chose Mambourin Green
After seeing Frasers Property deliver on its vision at Mambourin, Ashnita and Shalendra felt confident purchasing the first lot at Mambourin Green.
"We were always super confident in Frasers. Their way of doing things is impressive and attractive," Ashnita says.
The planned residents' club at Mambourin Green, set to be even larger than Club Mambourin, was another key reason behind their investment decision.
Beyond the amenities, the couple value the strong sense of community they have experienced through local events and neighbourhood connections.
"We always end up making great friends and building community partnerships. We love the atmosphere and the opportunity to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds," Ashnita says.
Building a Future Together
Today, Ashnita and Shalendra live in Mambourin with their young family, including their son Aari and beloved dog, Diamond. As they continue their property journey, they are excited to see Mambourin Green grow into a thriving new community.
"We now call Melbourne our city and Australia our country," Ashnita says. "Our family from Fiji loves visiting and enjoying everything that has been built here over the years."

The settlement of Mambourin Green's first purchaser marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the community.
As more purchasers prepare to settle and build their homes, Mambourin Green is continuing to grow into a vibrant neighbourhood where residents can connect, thrive and feel at home.
