Calderwood Suburb Profile About Rawson In 1978, Rawson Homes started as a small home building company in Dubbo. Forty years later, Rawson Homes is a multi-award winning home builder delivering over 1,200 homes per year across Sydney, Illawarra, Southern Highlands, Central Coast, Newcastle, Hunter, Central New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. Part of Rawson Group of companies, Rawson Homes has a proud heritage and a reputation for building relationships as well as dream homes.

With an eye to providing a comfortable home to around 12,000 people over the next few years, transport is at the doorstep, and the Sydney CBD is only a little more than 100km away via the convenient M1. There’s also a healthy range of nearby schools – plus several upcoming facilities already penned in. All up, this is a region growing comfortably, with its eye on forging ahead and engaging families, professionals and investors alike. In fact, new shops, parklands, sports fields, a village centre and conservation land are also already earmarked – indeed, everything that makes living the dream life a coveted reality. Things are only looking brighter in the flourishing suburb that mixes the best of south coast serenity and urban opportunities, with significant infrastructure improvements also on the cards, including the Albion Park Bypass, set for completion in 2022. Meanwhile, nearby Lake Illawarra provides a scenic backdrop to any recreational – or relaxing – event, while the stunning Escarpment only adds to the area’s allure. A new string of shops are set to open, enhancing the options already available at nearby Shellharbour, as well as the wide range of sporting facilities, such as the golf course, Calderwood truly paints itself as a destination for a fantastic lifestyle.
