THE BOTANICAL
WE HAVE MOVED
We are so excited to share our brand new office with you - Suite 1, Unit 19, 669 Dean Street, Albury - part of The Botanical complex. We made the move at the start of January and haven’t looked back. We now share a building with Albury Eye Clinic, Landmark and Geoffrey Michael Pattissiere. We are all finding it a little difficult not eating cake for breakfast when we have to walk past such amazing pastries and cakes by Geoffrey Michael every day. Our new office took around two months to custom build and was completed by Liv Designs. Liv Designs is an Albury based business specialising in home and office renovations as well as furniture design and interior consulting. Thanks to their vision and hard work we have a welcoming reception, board room, sign up room and individual
offices for our Sales Agents and Property Managers. The fantastic location has made this transition an easy one. A Special thanks to Directors Geoff and Fiona Stean for all of the hard work they have put into this project. www.livdesigns.com.au
