Barry Plant’s first office in Anderson Street Templestowe
Barry Plant’s first office was established on the 11th June 1979 at 39 Anderson Street, Templestowe. Barry and Karen took a drive to Templestowe around Christmas in 1978, to look at the site which was suggested to them by one of Barry’s vendors, whilst he was manger for N.R. Reid & Co. At the time there were 33 agents already operating in the Manningham area, mainly Doncaster and Templestowe. Barry Plant’s first office would be number 34.
In 1987 Barry and Karen bought the Manningham office at 250 Blackburn Rd. The office was purchased at foundation stage and was fitted out by Barry’s own company Birchbank Homes. This is where Manningham’s now state of the art office is located, providing easy access to buyers and sellers.
In the following years Barry Plant Real Estate flourished in the eastern and south eastern suburbs of Melbourne. The Barry Plant name is synonymous with Real Estate in the Melbourne Metropolitan area, with over 30 years of real estate experience in the city of Manningham.
