Building communities with strong foundations
Every residential development project we undertake is guided by our core values. From the materials we use to the way we design our communities – we strive to foster a connection between our residents and the natural surroundings.
Livingstead, a development company founded by Michael McCrudden and Lincoln Frost, was established with the goal of creating communities that embody the principles of integrity, trust, family, sustainability, and a deep sense of caring.
Driven by their passion for fostering thriving and long-lasting homes for families, they established Livingstead as a grassroots family-based business. The company's focus on delivering the highest quality in all of its projects, while ensuring that they are located in safe, family-friendly and sustainable environments, sets it apart from its peers. Since its inception, Livingstead has stood for certainty, strong foundations, and reliability. Despite its growth over the years, the company remains guided by the same principles and values that were set by its founders. Livingstead is dedicated to building communities where families can flourish and where residents can experience a sense of true belonging.
