ArkExpress is thrilled to share some recently completed photos of our five terrace houses project in Fairfield which was approved under the the Code. We are incredibly proud to contribute to ‘the missing middle’ housing in Fairfield and provide more affordable housing option for families with good amenity and great access to open space, public transport and shops – and of course a great design!
