Building Information
Vanier Court was built in 1975, is an owner-occupied building with several original owners still residing here. Our building is well run by our Strata Council (elected annually) in conjunction with our Property Manager.
There have been a few changes over that time but the sensible management and long-term planning over many councils has created a well-maintained building.
We hope you will come to appreciate the many amenities that our building has to offer.
The original Strata Plan and the original marketing folio can be found here.

The CoV approved original Building Plans (40 pages) are too large to upload; however, they have been saved on MS OneDrive.
