Judy Clarkson AM had a vision—one that became a reality in 2002 with the launch of Blue Hills Residences in Cranbourne East. Today, that vision continues to flourish with the success of her second lifestyle resort, also located in the rapidly growing suburb of Cranbourne East.
Spread across 50 acres, Blue Hills Rise offers the perfect blend of security, comfort, and leisure. The resort features modern facilities, including The Club—a welcoming space where residents can relax by the open fire with a drink, catch up with friends over a light lunch at the Orange Leaf Café, or enjoy traditional-style dining in our restaurant, ideal for family meals or special occasions in a more formal setting.
Our founder
Judy Clarkson
Blue Hills Residences Pty Ltd is the heartfelt vision of Judy Clarkson AM and her family—a vision to create more than just a place to live, but a vibrant, purpose-built community for people entering a new and exciting chapter of life. A place where residents don’t just settle—they thrive.
“I want to live somewhere that offers security… where peace of mind is the order of the day and boredom is banned.”
— Judy Clarkson AM
At Blue Hills, we believe that this stage of life should be filled with meaning, connection, and joy. That’s why we’ve built a community where every resident feels valued, heard, and respected. We celebrate the experiences, wisdom, and individuality of each person—and we’re committed to creating an environment where dignity, purpose, and genuine care are at the heart of everything we do.

At Blue Hills Rise, you’ll quickly find yourself wondering why you didn’t make the move sooner. With activities happening every day, there’s something for everyone—whether you’re looking to stay active, connect with others, or simply enjoy some well-deserved relaxation.
Take part in friendly games of indoor bowls, move to the rhythm with our line dancing group, or curl up with a good book in the peaceful Club library. Enjoy the excitement of surround sound movies in our private theatre, sing along at social events, join a card game, keep fit in our gymnasium, or explore your creativity in the Art & Craft Room—all while sipping a coffee and enjoying great company.
If you’re craving something more energetic, grab a racket for a match on our full-size tennis court, or challenge yourself in one of our exercise groups. And when it’s time to unwind, slip into the indoor heated pool or spa for a refreshing soak. Take life at your own pace—stroll through beautifully manicured gardens, enjoy a BBQ with family, or relax in one of our serene rotundas dotted throughout the village.
A Home That Reflects You
