Off the plan buyers have moved into the project, which is just five minutes from the Middle Brighton train station. Only two apartments remain for sale. The two-bedroom penthouse priced from $2.25 million.

Each apartment in 32 Black Street was designed with a spacious open-plan living area with a gas fireplace, a fully-equipped kitchen featuring top of the range Miele appliances, a study room, and expansive balconies looking back to the Melbourne skyline.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=219009]

The location of 32 Black Street is undoubtedly one of its most appealing features, offering residents easy access to attractions and amenities. Residents can conveniently shop and dine in the upscale shops and restaurants along the nearby Church Street or visit Brighton Baths, Brighton Yacht Club, and the very popular Brighton Dog Beach.

Noorden Property selling agent David Lamond said the project suited those wanting to downsize in the area without needing considerable amount of space.

"A lot of the apartment product in Brighton is geared toward three bedrooms, but some downsizers don't need that amount of space. It might just be their lock up and leave, city bolthole."

Melbourne's prestigious Bayside suburb, Brighton, is soon to welcome its newest residents, as the boutique development 32 Black Street nears completion.

Designed by renowned architects Architecture Works, 32 Black Street stands out as a striking addition to the heart of Brighton. The building's sleek and modern design features an abundance of glass and metal detailing, but its most captivating aspect is undoubtedly its picturesque facade.

Designed to face north, the structure maximises natural light through its expansive windows, balconies, and lush greenery.

The intricate detail on the facade and the soaring ceilings create an enchanting sense of scale that perfectly complements the development's prime location.&nbsp;

The remaining residences, each with their own unique and luxurious interior, epitomise opulence and sophistication, from the expansive balconies overlooking the city skyline to the slate-marble tiled bathrooms and designer kitchens.

Two apartments remain at Brighton's 32 Black Street as construction nears completion

It’s often hard to tell how an off the plan development is really going to work out.&nbsp;

With buyers often signing on before construction starts, there’s a lot of considerations to weigh up and consider, and more often than not, a lot of waiting time until the project is finished.&nbsp;

So it only makes sense the confidence and happiness a recent buyer at 32 Black Street felt when they saw construction beginning on the Brighton development, with the progress only giving her more confidence in her purchase.&nbsp;

“I was a bit hesitant to purchase off the plan initially. My kids were asking what if they don’t finish and asking all the questions I’m sure everybody thinks before jumping into an off the plan sale,” the buyer said.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199301]

In a project that downsizers have swarmed to, the familiar partnership between Thomas Constructions and QB Constructions, is well underway with construction progressing smoothly.&nbsp;

“Being a local, I’ve been lucky enough to be able to check in on the progress of the development quite frequently so I’ve got a lot of confidence since seeing the builders there everyday. The fact the developers are the ones building the project added a lot of trust in the process.”

Taking up a two-bedroom apartment at 32 Black, the buyer was drawn to make her purchase due to a number of elements featured throughout the residences.&nbsp;

“It’s really rare and unusual to find such a generously-sized two-bed apartment, especially with a separate laundry area and a separate study space.”

32 Black’s ideal Bayside location has been another major drawcard for buyers.

“I’ve lived in the area for some time, so location was a major consideration when buying a new apartment and it was certainly a selling point when considering 32 Black,” the recent buyer said.&nbsp;

“Not only am I within walking distance to the best Brighton has to offer with shops and the beach, Middle Brighton Station&nbsp;is also nearby, providing an easy connection to the wider Melbourne region.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199295]

32 Black St itself is situated in one of the most desirable locations in Brighton, steps from exclusive boutiques and restaurants.

The suburb is home to a number of upscale shops and restaurants, as well as numerous parks and gardens. With Church Street almost at your door, residents are right in the thick of Brighton's vibrant dining and entertainment scene.

The Pantry, Dendy Deli, and Palace Cinemas are also just a short walk away.

The suburb is also home to a number of schools, making it perfect for families, with Brighton Primary, Brighton Grammar, and Firbank Grammar all within the locale.&nbsp;

And when residents are ready to relax, they can head down to the Brighton Baths, Brighton Yacht Club, or the very popular Brighton Dog Beach.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199300]

Designed by Architecture Works, 32 Black features intricate detailing on the building’s facade, with scaling ceilings creating a sense of scale that doesn’t sacrifice the all-important details.&nbsp;

"I'm obsessed with the solid brick walls. The striking design drew me in instantly, along with the colour palette."

“Street appeal like 32 Black doesn’t come along too often, and the timeless design will help the building stand the test of time.”

As many know, Melbourne can often have tumultuous weather, showing all four seasons in one day at times, so with prospective buyers being able to walk through a shell apartment has also been a major drawcard in bringing buyers to 32 Black Street.&nbsp;

“Being able to walk through the shell apartment really gave me more confidence to buy,” the recent buyer said.&nbsp;

“The fact I could imagine and plan out exactly how my apartment would look upon completion was a big positive.”

“I even had the chance to inspect the apartments during a massive Melbourne downpour, so to see how solid the construction was, and there were no leaks or drips anywhere was a real positive.”

Sustainability is another item high on buyers’ shopping list, with 32 Black ticking the box.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108268 project_image_fid=199297]

As one of only a handful of developments currently being built with EV charging stations, the option to add solar panels to each residence is another promising element for the Brighton project.&nbsp;

“I don’t think I’ve really seen that option anywhere in a development before, and the added ability to charge an electric car is also a plus,” the buyer said.&nbsp;

Executive selling agent, David Lamond said buying into 32 Black means residents have the chance to be green in the middle of Brighton.&nbsp;

"The apartments have the option for pre-wiring for electric car charging in your car space, along with pre wired personal solar panels if you choose to install them,” he said.&nbsp;

Lamond said ultimately 32 Black Street offers buyers the security and luxury they're seeking in an apartment, located in one of Melbourne's most sought-after postcodes.

The two biggest drivers for buyers at 32 Black is the estimated completion date, slated to be early next year, and the striking architectural detailing of the project.

"The fact completion is potentially only six months or so away, buyers are starting to think about how they can arrange their lives and transition from their larger home into a new apartment, whether it be delayed settlement deals, or priming their home for sale in the busy spring selling season," Lamond said

32 Black’s ideal Bayside location has been a major drawcard for buyers

Why I bought a 32 Black Street, Brighton apartment: Buyer Q&A

Downsizers have swarmed to the latest luxury apartment development in Melbourne's Bayside Brighton, 32 Black Street.

Exclusive selling agent David Lamond from Noorden said the buyer wanted to remain in the Brighton area, but only needed a two-bedroom apartment, while a third multi-purpose room offered the flexibility of an office space.
