New residential icon opens in Mount Lawley

Match

13 April 2019

Mount Lawley’s newest streetscape addition is now complete, injecting new life into the corner of Walcott and Burt Streets with an influx of new residents and a potential new café / retail operation on the ground floor.

M/25 by Match is a boutique mixed-use apartment building with only 30 residences. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into the culture of its Mount Lawley environment.

Mr Lloyd Clark, Managing Director of Match parent company, M/Group, said that the building has been designed so that it is difficult to separate the apartment interiors from the lifestyle that its location offers.

“These apartments have been designed with one thing in mind; to create an environment that complements the activity and facilities that are located at its doorstep,” he said.

“The apartments interiors are art gallery-look inspired, which means clean lines with black and white surfaces and elegant fixtures. We want the residents to ‘curate their own exhibition’ and express themselves through the space.”

Each apartment features black tapware in kitchens and bathrooms, Bosch oven and electric cooktop, reconstituted stone benchtops, marble splashbacks and reverse cycle air-conditioning.

The property is located within walking distance to the Beaufort and Angove Street precincts, a short walk or bike ride to the Edith Cowan University and parks and a bus ride to the CBD.

“To us, M/25 by Match is all about the incredible location and we wanted to create a design that really links its residents to the location and culture of the area,” Mr Clark continued.

“We feel we have already hit the mark in this regard, as the apartments were already 50% sold on completion. We are now looking forward to showcasing the remaining apartments as ‘move-in-ready’ and giving residents a great retail venue on the ground floor and surrounding area.”

M/25 by Match draws inspiration from the suburb’s Federation red brick and terracotta houses. The façade uses contrasting shapes, materials and colours to link the lively urbanism of Walcott Street and create a strong corner presence.

Apartments are offered in one or two-bedroom floorplans with private courtyard or balcony entertaining space. Some apartments offer sweeping CBD views.

Two apartments emerge at ‘sold out’ South Terrace

M / Property

08 June 2019

Just weeks before M/28 Apartments by Match on South Terrace is complete and becomes ‘move in ready’, two luxury apartments have been made available in a complex that ‘sold out’ within months of release.

M/28 is a mixed-use building comprising of just 20 boutique apartments on the popular South Terrace coffee strip. The building is deliberately designed to present as understated with naturally inspired materials and palette, which take inspiration from the Fremantle culture and nearby heritage-listed community hot-spot, The Local.

Mr Lloyd Clark, Managing Director of Match parent company M/Group, said the decision to release the remaining two apartments was not originally planned by the company, but provides new opportunities for those wanting to live in arguably Fremantle’s most cosmopolitan location.

“The apartments attracted overwhelming interest when we released them. It was clear that the opportunity to live in such beautifully designed apartments in the heart of Fremantle’s busy café strip was extremely attractive,” he said.

“No doubt there were many disappointed parties who missed out on securing an apartment in this tightly held location, which makes the current release an even more exciting prospect for many.”

The apartments have been designed in collaboration with respected and award-winning architects David Barr Architects and Cameron Chisholm Nicol Architects.

Every design detail has been considered to deliver an understated and functional design statement that reflects contemporary coastal living with high quality finishes, such as timber, engineered stone benchtops and concrete-porcelain tiles. The apartments also achieve a comparable 4-star Green Star rating; an aspect sighted as extremely important to people living in the area.

M/28’s exterior façade continues the natural theme which incorporate timber screens. This feature is reflected in the lobby with timber ceilings and concrete-look finishes.

The property also includes commercial sites on the ground floor, offering a potential ‘live and work’ option with an extremely visible South Terrace street frontage.

“The release of the last two apartments at M/28 by Match and availability of commercial space on the ground floor opens a lot of doors for those who really want to embed themselves into the Fremantle culture,” Mr Clark continued.

“This new release is without question a highly attractive proposition that is unlikely to last very long.”

The site falls within the development zone approved for a street upgrade and revitalisation by the City of Fremantle. This includes additional trees, landscaping and upgrade to footpaths between South Street and Douro Road.

M/28 by Match is due for completion in June, and is open for viewing now.

Construction Commences on M/Group’s Second Quest

M / Group

01 May 2019

Construction on a 56 room (112 key) Quest Apartment hotel in Ascot has commenced following the successful completion of a $11.5 million development fund by M/Group and subsequent settlement of the 2,211sq.m development site. It is the second property undertaken by M/Group for the apartment hotel giant, with the first in Joondalup currently nearing completion.

The Quest Apartment Hotel in Ascot is located at 266 Great Eastern Highway, near Perth Airport and enroute to the Perth CBD. Its strategic location is in close proximity to Ascot racecourse, Optus Stadium, Crown Casino, Perth CBD and Perth airport, and is serviced by a road network that will see some 63,000 vehicles pass the site each day.

The property is being constructed by M/Group’s building division, M/Construction, which is currently engaged on a number of multi-residential and commercial projects across Perth, including Quest Joondalup.

M/Group Managing Director, Mr Lloyd Clark, said M/Group’s recent success and track record in fully subscribing property funds suggests a thirst in the market for secure investments.

“It’s difficult to dispute the investment potential and returns of a project that has a long- term lease agreement with a multi-national operation, as well as an independent valuation uplift created through the development delivery process,” he said.

“Quest Ascot is one of several property funds M/Group has successfully subscribed, largely due to a group of investors that now follow our projects based on our capacity to deliver.”

Quest is Australia’s largest apartment hotel operator by number of properties and is the second largest by the number of rooms. The Ascott Limited (wholly owned by Singapore’s CapitaLand) owns 80% of Quest . It has over 43,000 operating serviced residence units in key cities around the world with a further 31,000 units under development. Ascott is the largest serviced residence provider in Australiasia and is targeting to double its global portfolio to 160,000 units over five years.

The Quest Ascot development project was negotiated by M/Group in an off-market arrangement.

“We are delighted by our growing investment portfolio and the success it has had in recent months. Some of our investment offers have out-performed expectation, which both demonstrates a solid model and market interest for income-generating funds,” Mr Clark continued.

“We are currently working on a number of new opportunities to meet investor demand.”

M/Group is an integrated property organisation that has over $185 million of Investor funds under management with a projected asset value of approximately $1 billion. The company recently expanded its portfolio to the eastern states to add to its string of regional shopping centres with one centre recording an independent valuation uplift of $10.5million in under a year.

Sizing up the future of your land choice

Monument

30 April 2019

In the search for a perfect place to build your first home, land size is of course an important factor. However, in isolation, the size of a homesite will not necessarily determine its value in the short or long-term future. Luckily for first home buyers, there are a range of options in the current marketplace that will deliver both land size and investment prospects.

While location and budget are major contributors when it comes to the land purchase decision-making process, few often appreciate the importance of finding an environment that will not merely fulfil the owner’s lifestyle goals, but also increase the value potential of the property for future sae or rental.

Ironically, your dream location might be the best investment you’ll ever make.

By ensuring the home environment appeals to your own personal desires, with features that help it ‘stand out’ in a competitive marketplace, you’re actually giving yourself more flexibility for when life changes might occur in the longer term.

Monument is a boutique land development company that currently has three land options available – each at various stages of development and all with something particularly unique on offer.

Hamelin Park, Secret Harbour

A home by the beach

What Monument does particularly well is introduce land estates in existing communities. When Hamelin Park was introduced in the established suburb of Secret Harbour, the estate was fast-tracked to meet demand for the land.

Today, Hamelin Park is some 80% sold out and literally surrounded by community infrastructure. As stage three comes on the market, savvy buyers will be able to pick up some ‘ready to build’ titled lots from just $179,000 for 331m2 to $200,000 for 531m2 only 3 minutes to the beach.

Atop, Beeliar

A home with a spectacular view

Located in the established suburb of Beeliar, Atop takes cues from the environment to create an elevated and interesting landscape for your home, adorned with natural materials, walking paths and majestic Tuart Trees.

Atop offers stunning ocean views and has recently completed its first stage of development, which is already 30% sold out in just 2 months. Monument is currently offering titled lots from 410sq.m to 494sq.m priced from $259,000.

The Wedge, Wellard North

Exclusive release of land

The Wedge is an exclusive pocket of land located in one of Perth’s most well-located and well-serviced areas. Although it is only in its early stages of development with the release of an initial 17lots, the homesites are larger than the market norm, and are located within private estate full of lifestyle features and adjacent to a nature reserve. Construction works are underway and Stage 1 titles will be available mid-2019.

Monument prides itself on its capacity to deliver a well-considered development design that introduce something unique and special into the marketplace. What that means to first home buyers is an enhanced future resale or rental prospect that also ticks any personal lifestyle goal you might have.

Working in close partnership with Western Australia’s leading first home buyer project builders also means you can get access to home packages tailored to your specific needs.
