Lochinvar Shopping Village is a new mixed-use neighbourhood centre by GWH, created to serve one of the Hunter Region’s fastest-growing residential catchments. Designed as a true community hub, the centre will deliver essential retail, lifestyle and service offerings tailored to the needs of the emerging Lochinvar community.
Positioned to capture a strong first-to-market advantage within a rapidly expanding residential corridor, the development is anchored by a full-line national supermarket with an associated bottle shop. The centre will also feature a diverse mix of specialty retail, food and beverage tenancies, a tavern, and a purpose-designed commercial building accommodating essential services and everyday conveniences.
The site is strategically located adjacent to a new 130-place childcare facility being delivered by GWH, currently under construction and scheduled for completion in 2026, further strengthening daily visitation and community integration.
Lochinvar Shopping Village will be supported by more than 300 shaded car parking spaces, convenient public transport set-down areas, and a central public forecourt designed to encourage gathering and activation. Council approval was granted in December 2024, with construction scheduled to commence in 2026.

Located at 30 Christopher Road, Lochinvar, within the Maitland Local Government Area, the development occupies a highly strategic position approximately 11 kilometres north-west of the Maitland CBD.

Nestled in the heart of Lochinvar Ridge Estate
Lochinvar Ridge Estate has been thoughtfully designed to create high-quality urban living that is seamlessly integrated into the wider Lochinvar community. A diverse range of public spaces and shared facilities will support everyday living, encouraging connection, wellbeing and a strong sense of place.
The master plan prioritises connected transport networks, linked green spaces, and well-proportioned residential lots that provide flexibility for a variety of home designs and lifestyles. Together, these elements create a welcoming and liveable community one that balances convenience, openness and quality to support modern residential living.
The surrounding catchment is experiencing strong and sustained residential growth, driven by major land releases including Lochinvar Ridge, Hereford Hill and Kaludah, each progressing through staged lot delivery. This accelerating population growth is creating a compelling demand for convenience retail, food and beverage, health, and essential service-based businesses, positioning the development as a critical neighbourhood centre for the expanding Lochinvar community.
