Everything a buyer needs to know about Aurora on Depper, St Lucia townhouses

<p>Brisbane's supercharged property market is continuing its bull run in 2024.</p>

<p>If it wasn't for Perth, Brisbane would be the best performing capital city unit market in the country.&nbsp;</p>

<p>CoreLogic's Monthly Hedonic Index showed the value of Brisbane units, which incorporates both apartments and townhouses, rose 1.9 per cent in July.&nbsp;</p>

<p>So far in 2024, units in Brisbane are now 12.8 per cent higher than they started the year, taking the median value from $561,000 to $638,000, surpassing Melbourne and Canberra to become the second most expensive capital city unit market in the country.</p>

<p>CoreLogic Research Director, Tim Lawless, said available supply is a key factor explaining the diverse outcomes in housing growth trends.</p>

<p>“The number of homes for sale in Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth is more than 30 per cent below average for this time of the year, while weaker markets like Melbourne and Hobart are recording advertised supply well above average levels,” Lawless said.</p>

<h2>What happened in Brisbane’s off the plan apartment market in July</h2>

<p><a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/sekisui-house-australia" target="">Sekisui House</a>&nbsp;Australia secured a $5.25 million sale of a penthouse atop Altura, one of its buildings in its $1 billion&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/west-end-qld-4101">West End</a> masterplan, West Village.</p>

<p>They've seen a 'reverse sea changer' trend at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-allere-collection-west-village-mollison-street-west-end">West Village</a>, which is approaching its final tower release. The buyers,&nbsp;business owners Leo Nipperess and partner Brett Park, are coming from a large home on Sovereign Island.</p>

<p>Nipperess and Park were drawn to the expansive 368 sqm layout complete with multiple living and entertaining zones, five bedrooms, four bathrooms and multiple balconies, only 800m from the Brisbane CBD.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=114215 project_image_fid=257538]</p>

<p>West End is also set for some more future supply with builder-developer Zen Group planning two&nbsp;"climate-responsive and contextually driven" apartment towers at <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/24-duncan-street-west-end">24 Duncan Street</a>, near Montague Markets.</p>

City Beat August 2024: Brisbane property boom continues

<p>St Lucia has long been one of Brisbane's premier riverfront suburbs.</p>

<p>The sought-after suburb, named after the West Indian island, is well known for its leafy streets, the Brisbane Botanic Garden, and the main campus for the University of Queensland.</p>

<p>As it's grown from its origins as a cotton farming district, significant riverside development has grown with it.&nbsp;One market that's been missed however is the growing market frequently being called the "missing middle".</p>

<p>The missing middle in this instance is the townhouse market, a&nbsp;market that sits between apartments and houses. A third of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/st-lucia-qld-4067">St Lucia</a> is made up of standalone homes, and another 60 per cent on apartments. According to the latest 2021 ABS Census, less than seven per cent are townhouses.</p>

<p>Brisbane developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/dusk-group">Dusk Group</a> is hitting St Lucia's missing middle with its latest residential development, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-townhouses/aurora-on-depper-st-lucia-68-72-depper-street-st-lucia">Aurora on Depper</a>.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=145923 project_image_fid=287620]</p>

<p>Named after its position at 68-72 Depper Street, just 300 metres from the City Cat and major bus networks, Aurora on Depper comprises just eight three-level townhouses pitched at downsizers, young families, and those with children who attend the nearby main campus of the University of Queensland.</p>

<p>Aurora on Depper presents an attractive opportunity, considering the scarcity of townhouses in the suburb and the competitive starting price of $1.55 million</p>

<p>Each townhouse, designed by Elevate Design Studio, offers three bedrooms, a two-car garage, kitchens with zero silica benchtops and butler's pantries, and hybrid timber flooring throughout the living areas.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=145923 project_image_fid=287619]</p>

<p>The versatile multi-purpose rooms are expected to be used as home offices for young professionals, a second living area, or a fourth bedroom.</p>

<p>Aurora on Depper is currently under construction by Akam Constructions and is expected to be complete by mid-2025.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=145923]</p>
