We spoke to Motion Property Sales Manager, Jennifer Hogan, who shared what makes KingsVillage a future-focused and sought after property in Melbourne's burgeoning suburb of Kingsville.&nbsp;

Urban.com.au: Which aspects of the KingsVillage development are you most proud of and why?

Jennifer Hogan: Located on a corner, the KingsVillage architecture has optimised the streetscape to great advantage.&nbsp;The bold and angular compositions frame the entire building with large windows, and a mixture of timber, brick and concrete. From the street, the architecture is all apartments, with the clever design of concealing the driveway to the double underground carpark, via a side cobblestoned lane.

The interiors also have a highly natural theme,&nbsp; avoiding over-stylized features which would become outdated.

U:&nbsp;If a buyer was deciding between KingsVillage and a similar residential development in the area, what do you think makes KingsVillage unique and the favourable option?

JH: KingsVillage is a boutique complex with a variety of floorplans,&nbsp; allowing for many differences in size and aspects. The project is uniquely positioned, away from any high-density apartment blocks, in a charming leafy pocket of period style homes, and commands a corner position allowing some apartments to view over the rooftops to the never to be built out view of the city skyline.&nbsp;

U: In your opinion, what are some of the best amenities on-site or nearby?

U: What was the inspiration behind the design of the development?

JH: KingsVillage was designed to set standards in function and form.&nbsp;Eye-catching and angular in exterior design and focus on large open plan living and gorgeous finishes on the inside.&nbsp;The inspiration was to compliment the charm of the suburb Kingsville.
