Time to snap up ariverside bargain
A CHILL might be in the air, but there hasnever been a hotter time to buy a riversideproperty.
Shaun Yeo from Jones Ballard PropertyGroup is urging people who are consideringbuying a home near the river to do so now, asmany buyers tended to be absent from thisniche market during winter.
“Buying real estate is about timing, andnow is the time to purchase a lifestyleriverside property before the market beginsto gain momentum during the springmonths,’’ he said.
“Jones Ballard, for example, generally sellsabout half the number of riverside propertiesduring the winter months compared to thepeak selling time over the summer period.
“Perth riverside suburbs have been amongthe top performing areas in the real estatemarket in recent decades.
“REIWA figures show, for example, thatthe median price of a home in riversidesuburbs such as Como and South Perth haveincreased on average by more than 11 percent annually over the past decade due to anincreasing focus on lifestyle in the Perthproperty market.”
Mr Yeo said while many people perceived
riverside suburbs to be relatively expensive,there were a number of opportunities forhomebuyers to gain an entry into these high-growth suburbs.
“Astute homebuyers should targetaffordable riverside suburbs, which are stillrelatively undervalued and have the potentialfor strong capital growth during the comingdecade,’’ he said.
“These affordable riverside suburbsinclude Ferndale, which has a median houseprice of less than $400,000 and Wilson,where the median house price is still under$500,000.
“A number of these riverside suburbs areundergoing major changes in demographics,which will have a positive impact on propertyprices during the coming years.”
One example of this trend is the riversidesuburb of Manning.
This well-established suburb was originallydeveloped for public housing with homeslocated on large blocks of land; however, inrecent years, the suburb has undergone amajor social transformation as youngerfamilies have moved back into the area due tothe rezoning of larger blocks, and this ispushing up land values.
Even though the median price of a home inManning is nearly $700,000, its location closeto the river and the city means that demandfor homes in this area will only rise as thepopulation of Perth continues to increase.
Mr Yeo said anyone considering buying ahome in a riverside suburb should focus onproperties as close to the river as possible asthey offered the greatest potential for capitalgrowth.
Properties that have the potential forviews from a second storey also representedgood buying opportunities, particularly if thehome was near land value.
“Anyone who is considering buying a homewith existing river views should carefullyresearch the area to make sure that theseviews cannot be ‘built out’ at a future date asthey could substantially devalue theproperty,’’ Mr Yeo said.
“Riverside suburbs also offer theopportunity for investors to create wealththrough purchasing older-style apartments inareas such as South Perth, Como andApplecross. These older-style riversideapartments can be refurbished to boostrental returns ... and they traditionallyachieve higher rates of rental growth.” ■
Winter is the right time to buy into these high-growth areas. By CARMELLE WILKINSON
Social arc determines city proximity costDALKEITH has been revealed as the most expensive suburbclosest to the Perth CBD.
In its latest weekly Property Pulse, property research groupRP Data found Dalkeith, with a median price of $2.68 million,to be the priciest suburb less than 10km from the city.
Home to Jutland Parade – one of the best streets in Australia– the riverside suburb features some of Perth’s most lavishproperties and unbeatable river views.
Western suburbs agent William Porteous once toldResidential the suburb attracted many wealthy Asian residents,who believed the feng shui of Jutland Parade brought themgood luck, because the tides washed money up to the banks ofthe river.
“From my experience over the past 30 years, this woulddefinitely be true,” he said.
If you don’t have a cool $2.68 million to purchase a home inDalkeith, you could grab yourself a serious bargain in Perth’smost affordable suburb, Cloverdale, also less than 10km fromthe Perth CBD.
Cloverdale was found to be the most affordable suburb neartown, with the average price of a house around $415,000.
RP Data research analyst Cameron Kusher said buyersseeking an affordable detached home may not necessarily haveto look in the outer fringes of the city, as the range in houseprices located similar distances from the city could be quiteextraordinary.
“Affordable close-to-city homes are also likely to exceed the30-year age bracket and can often come with costlymaintenance requirements. The upside is that these homes arelikely to be on larger blocks of land,” he said.

Riverside apartments canbe great investments.
TOP PROPERTY TIPS FOR TODAY
THIS week, Propell Valuersvaluations manager TravisColeman shares his top tipswhen buying an apartment.
■ If you are buying off theplan, check previous developments thathave been undertaken by the builder todetermine their ability to deliver whatthey are promising.■ The quality of the complex and fit-out ofthe apartment is also a key issue whenmaking a final decision. Good qualityapartments in a high quality complex willbe easier to rent and easier to re-sell.■ Before purchasing an apartment, checkthe average weekly rent for a similarapartment in the same location. This willgive you an indication of future rentalreturns if you decide to rent it out.■ Check how many apartments in thecomplex are owner-occupied. If morethan 50 per cent of the apartments areoccupied by owners, then the complexshould be well maintained.■ Check the exact internal floor space ofthe apartment. The price of the apartmentshould be measured in the cost per squaremetre to allow comparisons.■ The views that the apartment can offerare important. If you are buying anapartment with good views, check thatnothing will interfere with these views.■ Parking is also very important whenbuying an apartment. Check that yourapartment has a dedicated car bay.■ Remember that if you are buying anapartment for renovation purposes, youmay have to obtain approval from otherowners for certain improvements.

Landmarkrestoration
BUILT for one of the Bunnings brothers in1911, “Colwyn” is something of a locallandmark.
The imposing, Federation Queen Anneresidence built for English immigrant andtimber merchant Arthur and his wife Evelyn,recently underwent a massive refurbishment.
The current owners, who are the fourthvendors, purchased the iconic but ratherdilapidated Victoria Avenue property fouryears ago with the intention of restoring it toits turn of the century condition.
A multi million dollar, award-winningrenovation by renowned heritage architectIan Hocking has resulted in a strikingcomposition of period detailing andcontemporary elegance.
The Claremont property was joint winner
of the Conservation and-or interpretation ofa place on the State Register of HeritagePlaces.
It is a visible reminder of the Federationperiod residences, which formerly graced theriverfront at Freshwater Bay.
The substantial two-storey residencefeatures outstanding timberwork andillustrates the highest quality of building andaccommodation erected in Claremont duringthe period.
A grand staircase is the central showpieceof the property, which spans 1021sqm.
There are four bedrooms and fivebathrooms.
The owner recalled that one of the latterowners had seven daughters, who oftenenjoyed dances around the staircase.
A formal drawing or dining room isopposite a more informal living area, chef’skitchen with butler’s pantry, and meals areawith french doors opening to the back yard.
A resort style swimming pool issurrounded by immaculately landscapedgardens.
A large balcony and terrace runs alongboth levels with beautiful river views.
With their project now complete, theowners have decided to concentrate theirefforts on their next restoration venture.
The owners said they had enjoyed being apart of history.
“We’ve had some family members of theprevious owners over for scones, cream andjam, and its just wonderful to sit around andhear the stories,” she said. ■

Pared back tosimply palatial
RATHER than follow the builder’s advice onprofligate detailing in every element of theirhome, the owners of this Mosman Parkproperty opted for a slightly more paredback design.
As a result, eight years later, the 2002Zorzi built home is classic and elegant ratherthen excessive.
Set back from the road on more than1000sqm, the striking cream facade witharched windows is at the end of a black stonedriveway secured by electronic gates.
Soaring pillars form the palatial vaultedentrance. Inside, sandstone coloured marbletiles line the floor.
A sweeping wrought iron and timberstaircase is a focal point of the foyer.
A sunken formal lounge and dining areacomes off the entrance, as does amagnificently designed, 10-seat, tiered hometheatre – one of the best I have ever seen.
Amber illuminated recessed ceilings andwall panels create a luxurious setting to enjoy
favourite movies.The owner’s teenage son has his own
unique set-up across the foyer with astudy/activity room connected to hisbedroom upstairs via a spiral staircase theowners had installed.
A stunning curve-shaped kitchen, diningand lounge area at the rear of the homeopens on to a resort style loggia and poolterrace with spectacular views of the river.
There are five bedrooms and threebathrooms.
On the second level, the master bedroomis extremely spacious with a glass-enclosedmarble ensuite and curved glass floor-to-ceiling windows to capture the mesmerisingview.
A huge second-storey balcony is largeenough to host a party, and is a favourite ofone of the owners to sit and enjoy a glass ofwine while admiring the ever-changing vistas.
“It is so peaceful up here, no matter whattime of day it is,” she said. ■

ONSITE AUGUST 7, NOON
Pinnacle of the Perth apartment lifestyle SITUATED on one of the most expensiveand prime residential sites in WesternAustralia, The Miami complex on BellevueTerrace is arguably the finest apartment livingon offer in the State.
Technically innovative, architect BarryBaltinas designed it to emulate an art-decostyle featuring curving walls and windowsreminiscent of the luxurious grand oceanliners of that period.
As I enter the building, I notice blossomingBird of Paradise flowers flanking the foyer –what a pertinent choice for such an address.
Number 4 is the second highest apartmentin the complex.
Everything about it is opulent.Two separate lifts open directly into its
lounge room. The most amazing views ofPerth city, the Swan River and Kings Park thatyou will ever see surround you almost fromevery angle.
With 100sqm of alfresco living area, thereis plenty of space to enjoy it.
Internal living space spans 342sqm. Thereare three bedrooms, each with its ownmarble-lined ensuite.
It is not the master bedroom but there issomething about the third bedroom, with itstreetop aspect through curved glass slidingdoors that I find utterly beautiful.
At the other end of the home, the masterbedroom features a chocolate and copperFlorence Broadhurst wallpapered featurewall, not that anyone else would probably
notice with the ever-changing canvas outside. Three hundred and sixty degree views of
our beautiful city would be hard to tire of.A beautiful peach colour infused marble
ensuite adjoins the master bedroom andfeatures a striking backlit circular mirror.
A state-of-the-art kitchen and semi-circular lounge area occupies the citysidewing of the home. Connecting these roomsto the central living area is a keyhole shapedgallery hall – a work of art in its own right.
The central living area is occupied by alounge with a pull-down projector screen, fulllength entertaining balcony enclosing thespace and a billiard/bar area with a custombuilt pool table.
Each apartment has four allocated car baysand full access to the basement levelentertaining area, gymnasium, infinity pool,spa and sauna.
There’s nothing ordinary about this home. ■
