Apartment developer Bensons Property Group took an unusual approach when they were designing Society Armadale.

Their brief to CHT Architects an interior architecture and design practice SORA, was to create one-of-a-kind floorplans in the boutique Wattletree Road development of 25 apartments.

No two apartments have the same floorplan, which is attracting a variety of buyers. What's also drawing buyers is the size of the three-bedroom apartments in particular.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109608 project_image_fid=205497]

Comparing the apartment size against the average house size in the 2021 CommSec Annual Home Size Report, Society Aramdale's three-bedroom apartments are 10 sqm larger.

Krongold Construction have started building Society Armadale, which is slated for completion early next year.

The development boasts gardens and swimming pools designed by the esteemed Jack Merlo, while also boasting an average 7-star NatHERS energy rating in each home.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109608 project_image_fid=205496]

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

The two and three-bedroom apartments are thoughtfully designed to maximise views and natural light, with a carefully selected palette of materials, including timber floors and marble benchtops and splashbacks.

Each apartment features&nbsp;Gaggenau appliances, along with Liebherr fridges and wine fridges and Astra Walker tapware, as well as private garages equipped with EV chargers.&nbsp;

Taking luxury to new heights, the penthouse at Society Armadale offers an unrivalled experience akin to a palatial house, boasting features such as a home cinema, wine cellar, office, and sauna, along with multiple living areas.

Privacy and security are paramount at Society Armadale, with state-of-the-art video and audio surveillance systems in place to ensure residents' peace of mind, while there's also concierge services which further enhance the sense of exclusivity and convenience within the development.

Society Armadale residents will also benefit from the We Wumbo building app, which enables communication between the concierge and the greater Society community.

The app will notify resident’s when parcels arrive, as well as being the destination to reserve The Sanctum, a private dining space within the development, the dog wash bay and even the car wash.&nbsp;

Society Armadale: Where no floorplan is the same as the last

Melbourne is set to witness one of the largest masterplanned community developments, as Hamton, in partnership with Moonee Valley Racing Club and Hostplus, transforms the Moonee Valley Racecourse into a world-class destination.

The $2 billion redevelopment will comprise of eight precincts, featuring residential developments, community hubs, green open spaces and dining options. The latest addition to this grand project is the hotly anticipated Trackside House apartments.

These apartments offer residents a chance to live right alongside the Moonee Valley Racecourse and enjoy unparalleled views of the city skyline. Designed by Rothelowman with interior design by Carr, Trackside House comprises 202 residences, ranging from one-bedroom apartments starting at $565,000 to grand three and four-bedroom residences, including the penthouse priced at $5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105114 project_image_fid=210517]

With its prime location, Trackside House is the first trackside residence to be offered in the masterplan. Residents will have access to premium amenities, and the opportunity to enjoy the unique lifestyle the masterplanned community offers.

Trackside is joined by three other residential projects, with Feehan Row and Thomas Street both sold out and limited opportunities remaining in Stonepine House, showcasing the demand and interest buyers have shown in the community.&nbsp;

The masterplanned community development will also feature various public spaces, including Stonepine Square, Cox Place, Tote Park, Rumpus, and The Stalls at Moonee Valley Racecourse. These public spaces provide a gathering place for visitors and residents to enjoy a dynamic, healthy lifestyle.

Stonepine Square is an idyllic gathering space built around existing turn-of-the-century Stone Pine trees. It features Mediterranean-themed plantings, shady pergolas draped with vines, and is perfect for a casual lunch or BBQ.

Cox Place is the vibrant heart of Moonee Valley Park, providing access to shopping, dining, work, and wellness. It is the ideal place to gather, linger, dine, work, and celebrate in this civic heart.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105114 project_image_fid=210518]

Tote Park, the first publicly accessible space available to visitors and residents, is now open. It boasts spacious rolling lawns, serpentine gardens, and a nature playground for families.

Rumpus is a destination playground where children can run free and enjoy skipping, jumping, and rolling over. Parents can relax in the adjacent café or enjoy a picnic with produce from Cox Place while keeping an eye on their little ones.

The Stalls at Moonee Valley Racecourse, situated in the historic spot where racehorses gather on race days, will transform into an active place for the community to enjoy during the rest of the year.

The Arena, another public space in the masterplan, will change the face of Moonee Valley Racecourse. It will serve as a welcoming space for the community to gather and enjoy local festivals and family-friendly events throughout the year.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105114 project_image_fid=210526]

The transformation of Moonee Valley Racecourse is set to be the biggest in the club’s history, with a brand-new world-class sporting and events grandstand that will serve members and the community for the next century.

The Moonee Valley Racecourse fields, reserved for racing for only 30 days per year, will be transformed on non-racing days into a unique area for residents, workers, club members, and visitors to enjoy a dynamic, healthy lifestyle.

The grand project has already sparked interest from buyers and investors alike, and with the launch of Trackside House, it's only set to grow. The Moonee Valley Racecourse redevelopment will undoubtedly change the face of Melbourne's property landscape and become a destination for years to come.

How Trackside House fits in to the wider Moonee Valley Park masterplan

Hedges Avenue is one of the most exclusive strips of real estate in Queensland, and among the top in the whole of Australia.

Only a handful of homes sit on the two&nbsp;kilometre strip in Mermaid Beach, just south of Broadbeach.

The last five houses have sold for a total of nearly $70 million, with two of the sales securing over $20 million each.

The beachfront is naturally the most sought-after, however the non-beach side blocks are still just a stone's throw from the sand.

There's been little to no opportunity for buyers on Hedges for anything between an apartment or a house. Sunland recently wrapped up 272 Hedges Avenue, the owner-occupier targeted tower with three and four-bed apartments.

The local developer <a href="/developers/sandbox-properties">Sandbox Properties</a>, well known for their high-end boutique townhouse developments in some of the Gold Coast's best pockets, have put together a site on Hedges Avenue and have recently launched 200 Hedges, a rare opportunity to secure a slice of&nbsp;the exclusive dress circle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112850 project_image_fid=201327]

200 Hedges has five four-level Ocean Houses, each with four bedrooms, configured to act as a three bedroom home and a one-bedroom, self-contained apartment.

The villas, serviced by an internal lift,&nbsp;will have two living areas, the main meeting the entertainer's kitchen which includes a built-in, glass feature wine cellar, walk in pantry, integrated Miele appliances, and designer tapware.

Each are crowned by a serviced rooftop terrace complete with ocean views. Every villa also comes with its own private pool and pool house, a built-in home office, and parking for two cars.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112850 project_image_fid=201329]

Sandbox Director Jack Tarrant said they are all about location when it comes to development.

"We're very selective when it comes to choosing sites," Tarrant says, adding that it's all about the lifestyle for the end user.

Tarrant says most of the enquiry on 200 Hedges so far has been from locals moving along Hedges, some of which who are concerned about the oceanway.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112850 project_image_fid=201332]

"We're offering a low maintenance product, considerably lower maintenance than the huge mansions opposite," Tarrant says.

Sandbox have a number of luxury projects currently on the market, including Marlowe and Marella at Runaway Bay, right on the canal front.
