Read moreAmara Pre-Sales Officially Launched
Following much anticipation, M/Group is excited to announce that pre-sales for our latest residential landmark, Amara Estate, officially launched at the end of July 2025.
Amara Estate is a secure, gated community with shared green spaces and residence clubhouse. The primary goal of this project is to facilitate delivery of safe, affordable, climate-resilient homes in a secure, gated community for essential workers in this high priority regional location in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder area. The essential key workers include and aren’t limited to the following industries: childcare, education, emergency services, government employees, healthcare, and retail.
Currently, there are 40 dwellings pre-sold, and 36 dwelling contracted to be leased to the Government Regional Officer Housing (GROH) program. Demand for sales and leasing remains exceptionally strong, driven by Kalgoorlie’s current vacancy rate of less than 1%.
The project is set to move into the construction phase early next year. The Building Contract and Civil Works package has been finalised, and we have secured full project funding through the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA).

M/Group is thrilled to announce the successful conclusion of the Parry Street Fund, achieving outstanding results for our investors. Over a 24-month period, the fund delivered a remarkable 15% per annum return.

Development Approval for Fremantle Substation
Development approval has been received by boutique apartment developer, Match, to develop the former Fremantle electricity substation site located in Parry Street into 40 residential apartments and a central food and beverage facility within the original heritage listed substation building.
The site will accommodate a mix of one, two and three bedroom apartments located at the rear of the property, accessible by a private cobble landscaped laneway. The apartments will overlook either parkland to the north or towards the historic Fremantle backdrop.
Match Managing Director, Mr. Lloyd Clark, said the plans for the site are in keeping with the character-filled environment being earmarked for the eastern gateway of Fremantle and will contribute to the culture evolving in the area.
“The Fremantle environment provides Match with the opportunity to ‘push the envelope’ and create environments people don’t just want to live in, but places that define them and their tastes,” Mr Clark said
“The Parry Street site will allow Match to introduce a touch of Melbourne urbane to a heritage inspired setting, and we are currently in discussions with a number of potential operations to establish a ‘Bread & Common’ style venue within the central substation building.”
Designed by Cameron Chisholm Nichol (CCN) Architects, who are also behind Match’s neighbouring Heirloom development of the Dalgety Woolstores, the 2800 sq.m Parry Street site will reactivate another important Fremantle landmark and aims to appeal to owner-occupiers and investors.
“The boutique and unique nature of the project represents limited supply and good capital growth potential, so we expect to see interest from a mix of owner occupiers who value good design and a heritage flavor, as well as investors looking to take advantage of the high demand of renters seeking the same attributes,” he said.
“The development is in keeping with the City of Fremantle’s plans to expand the character and energy into its eastern gateway. It will create an intimate living environment unlike any other in the area.”
The Parry Street apartments will be launched into the market in early 2016 with prices starting from $450,000.
Construction is scheduled to commence around Easter 2016 and will be undertaken by M/Construction; the recent recipient of the MBA Award for Best New Builder.
