Meriton, Australia’s largest residential developer, unveils Pagewood Retail Precinct – a vibrant new lifestyle destination blending dynamic dining experiences with essential retail.
This latest mixed-use development from Meriton is more than just a shopping or dining destination; it’s a community hub where people can connect, indulge, and explore. With a carefully curated mix of renowned eateries and essential services, Meriton’s Pagewood Retail Precinct is set to become a cornerstone of modern urban living in Sydney.
“Our Pagewood Precinct was designed with our community at its core,” says Con Kery, Head of Retail and Commercial at Meriton. “Our goal was to create a space that offers exceptional food and dining experiences while truly reflecting and serving the local area’s needs. With Pagewood, we’re building a place where people can come together, enjoy first-class dining experiences, and feel at home in a setting that’s both contemporary and welcoming.”

Meriton’s Pagewood Precinct isn’t just about retail; it’s about creating a place where people can enjoy exceptional food in a community-centred environment. Meriton has designed the space to be more than a collection of stores – it’s a destination where friends, families, and food lovers can come together to enjoy unique culinary experiences.
“We’re not only meeting everyday needs here at Pagewood, but we’re also crafting a space that fosters a sense of community and connection. From the open-air dining areas to the vibrant community spaces, our Pagewood Retail Precinct is designed to be a true urban sanctuary where people can unwind and savour some of the area’s best food and beverage offers,” said Kery.
