Ivanhoe Gardens

Ivanhoe is part of the&nbsp;City of Banyule,&nbsp;one part of eclectic north-east Melbourne&#39;s, just nine kilometres from the CBD.

The suburb is in large part comprised of established families, in part due to median unit prices upwards of $770,000,&nbsp;significantly higher than the metropolitan Melbourne median unit price of $563,910, a figure calculated by SQM Research.

However, an abundance of amenities, as well as proximity to public transport and major arterial roadways has made&nbsp;it a popular among many&nbsp;demographics. Not to mention its&nbsp;vibrant caf&eacute; culture as well as the ever&nbsp;popular and bustling Upper Heidelberg Road.

Younger couples and those planning a family will be&nbsp;attracted to the two elite private schools,&nbsp;Ivanhoe Grammar School, and Ivanhoe Girls&#39; Grammar School. It is also home to one of Victoria&#39;s oldest state schools, Ivanhoe Primary School, established in 1853.&nbsp;

Ivanhoe has also caught the eye of investors according to Bensons, the team behind Chelsworth, who said properties in the area boast an annual capital growth of six per cent.

Urban has taken a look at some new Ivanhoe apartments that buyers should put on their shortlist.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22308 project_image_fid=75040]

Ivanhoe Gardens is situated just off Bell Street, Ivanhoe’s main arterial road. Being located on the suburb’s fringe means a coveted postcode at a lower price point – with a good opportunity for your home to see a value increase in future. Plus, Ivanhoe is a significant employment hub, with Victoria’s largest medical precinct and La Trobe University within a 4-kilometre radius.

The Art Deco and Modernist influences have been woven into the design of Ivanhoe Gardens, as you can see from the globe pendant lights, clean lines and pared-back material palette.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22308 project_image_fid=75059]

Blue Earth Group has formed an industry-leading team. The display, built by Hamilton Marino, is constructed by the same company that worked across many of the developer's previous properties and will be facilitating the build of Ivanhoe Gardens. This means you can check the build quality in real life before making your purchase.&nbsp;

In the kitchen, you've got everything from the state of the art appliances to smooth stone benchtops and bespoke cabinetry, complete with a glow of LED strip lighting.

CHT Architects have designed the space to effortlessly flow to open plan living, extending to a private balcony via floor-to-ceiling stacker sliders. Some homes even overlook a stunning central garden designed by acclaimed landscape architecture practice, Jack Merlo.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22308 project_image_fid=75058]

In the bathrooms, the styling is modern and minimalist, with circular basins, gunmetal tapware and generous walk-in showers.&nbsp;

Another cool feature of these apartments is the access you'll have to the incredible hotel-style amenities. Ivanhoe Gardens features over 3,600 square metres dedicated to on-site facilities, and to visualise that number, that's around 50 apartments.&nbsp;

The team has considered the kinds of amenities residents will get the most use of, with innovative spaces including work sheds, an art room, co-working spaces, and car and dog washing facilities. You'll be able to get groceries delivered with chiller storage available at the on-site click n collect or store your wine in the bookable cellars.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=22308 project_image_fid=75039]
