St Albans

First home buyers are securing affordable homes at St Albans, thanks to Cedar Woods’ new St.A townhouse development. &nbsp;

The striking project, designed by DKO Architecture, features 254 two, three and four-bedroom homes which have been crafted to give residents an elevated lifestyle.

Among the first home buyers purchasing into the charming development is 24-year-old civil engineer, Jessica Nguyen. &nbsp;

Urban spoke to young property buyer about her buying journey and what she loves about St.A.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7633 project_image_fid=80007]

MK: Where did you previously live and why are you moving to St.A?

JN: I currently live in Caroline Springs and decided to move to St.A because of the location. The area has already been largely developed with a train station within walking distance as well as great restaurants.

I spend so much time in the area already. So many of my family and friends live in St Albans and more of my friends are looking to buy in the area.

MK: Were you already looking for property when you discovered St.A?

JN: I’ve been looking for the last few months mainly at new developments around the Maribyrnong, Sunshine and St Albans areas.

<blockquote>
St.A appealed to me because of the price, distance from the city and amenity, available all within my budget.
</blockquote>

MK: What do you love most about what St.A has to offer residents?

JN:&nbsp;There is amazing food and a great community. The train station is a big factor for me, it is walking distance from St.A to the station, whereas right now I have to drive 20 minutes to the nearest station each day.

MK: Which townhome configuration did you opt for, and what led you to narrow down your decision?

JN: I purchased the Argyle townhome which has two-bedrooms, two-bathrooms and a single garage.

Price was a big influence. I went through a mortgage broker who helped me figure out what I could afford, and I was thrilled that this was slightly under budget.

MK: What was it like negotiating with the sales agent and the team at Cedar Woods?

JN: Minh was really good to work with; he understood my non-negotiables and replied quickly to get the deal done.

MK: What made you decide to buy off-the-plan rather than an existing dwelling?

JN: I wanted to build and found that buying off-the-plan was a lot easier and stress-free. St.A is already a built-up area and I could see the quality and style of homes Cedar Woods delivered.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7633 project_image_fid=32169]

MK: St A has impressive nearby amenity. Which amenity is your favourite?

JN: Definitely the restaurants. My favourite is Thuan Phat, I go there every week!

MK: As a first home buyer, how did you find the due diligence research and purchase process?

JN: I asked advice from family who told me to first go to a mortgage broker to understand my budget. I also watched a lot of YouTube videos and listened to podcasts on how to budget and save for my first deposit.

I was also looking at another development in Sunshine but I liked the St.A amenity more. It is already an established community, whereas the other is still a while away from feeling like a community.

MK: Did you have a set of criteria that your first home had to meet?

JN: I very much looked at this purchase as an investment as well as my first home and having two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a garage was a set requirement for me.

I personally wanted a backyard area as well and I had a preference for a downstairs living area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7633 project_image_fid=80010]

As this was my first home, it had to be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant as well as fit within my budget.

What advice would you have for other first home buyers?

JN: Research as much as you can and understand your budget [and] prepare for the expenses of home ownership as well!

MK: Is there anything else you would like to add about your new home or the area more generally? 

JN: St Albans is such a beautiful place; it has come a long way in recent years. It is such good value being so close to the city; the west is the next big thing!

<html><body>
St A, Cedar Woods’ new masterplanned community in St Albans in Melbourne's north-west, is attracting a wide range of buyers to its townhouse development.

Cedar Woods are offering buyers the opportunity to choose from six different floorplans, with each townhome ranging between two and four bedrooms.

Located in the burgeoning growth area, west of Melbourne’s CBD, St.A delivers a family-friendly community, a landscaped central park and stunning designs by DKO Architecture.

We recently spoke with Cedar Woods chief operations officer, Patrick Archer, to discuss the benefits of securing a townhome at St.A.

MK: Have you seen an increased demand in townhouse sales post-COVID-19? 

PA: St.A sales have seen a solid increase since late last year when restrictions eased and the economy showed signs of a solid recovery.

At the same time, the central park landscaping was installed and several stages of townhomes were completed so the project is looking amazing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7633]

MK: What are the buyer demographics of owner-occupiers purchasing townhouse developments?

PA: It has been a very diverse mix of buyers but typically, it has been first home buyers who already live in the area. There’s also a good proportion of young families and downsizers.  

MK: What should homebuyers look for in the ideal townhouse development? 

PA: If 2020 has taught us anything it is that floorplan functionality is the make or break of a home. Quite a few of our purchasers have told us that this was one of the biggest selling points at St.A, a floorplan that has outdoor space and allows you to set up a home office which is important to purchasers.

MK: Do properties in St Albans hold long-term investment opportunities? 

PA: Melbourne’s western suburbs have been widely reported as the biggest opportunity for investors who want to make excellent returns.

St Albans is no exception and buyers at St.A are focused on the long term return on their investment with strong prospects for capital growth in a suburb that is so well serviced. 

MK: What does the project offer that other townhouse developments may not?

PA: St.A allows beautiful and architecturally designed homes, set around a large central park where neighbours can meet. These features and proximity to shops and transport is what makes St.A unique.

Also St.A is being developed by Cedar Woods, an ASX listed national property developer so buyers can rest assured that their homes will be delivered to a high standard.

Five reasons why buyers should consider a St A townhome in Melbourne's St Albans

<html><body>
St. A is located in north-western Victoria, in the thriving suburb of St Albans. From St. A, residents can access Melbourne CBD in 30 minutes by car and 50 minutes by public transport, making this affordable development the perfect city fringe option for first home buyers and upsizers alike.

Here's what you can find within walking distance from St.A

<h2>EDUCATION</h2>

One of the great features of St. A is the walkability of the neighbourhood – with plenty of education options just a short stroll away. Victoria University's St Albans campus is a mere 12-minute walk, while St Albans Secondary College is 19-minutes away. Other schools in the area include: University Park Primary School, Jackson School, St Albans Meadows Primary School, St Albans Heights Primary School, Sunshine Park Estate Kindergarten and many more education centres in the surrounding neighbourhoods. 

<h2>SUPERMARKETS</h2>

St. A is perfectly positioned for all your grocery needs – being situated right on Gratz Street, means you can walk to the SUPA IGA supermarket and Woolworths in less than 10 minutes.

<h2>RETAIL</h2>

For retail shopping, enjoy a weekend amble to the local shopping mall – Brimbank Shopping Centre is a 38-minute walk while Cairnlea Town Centre is a 31-minute walk. Alternatively, you could drive and be there in less than 10 minutes, but the option is there if the weather is nice and you feel like a decent walk.

<h2>PARKS</h2>

There are also plenty of parks to choose from, 14 minutes walk south of St. A you'll find Stradbroke Drive Reserve which is equipped with plenty of outdoor exercise equipment. Walk north for 7 minutes and you'll reach McKechnie Reserve, and another 5 minutes will get you to Errington Reserve.

<h2>NATURE TRAILS</h2>

Brimbank Park Nature Trail is just a stone's throw from St. A, offering a well-designed loop track, which starts and finishes at the Parks Victoria office/cafe. This particular track includes both sealed and well-maintained gravel paths, making it a suitable walk for intermediate hikers. Dogs are allowed on this walking track but must be kept on a lead. If you're lucky, you might spot a long-necked tortoise in Taylor's Creek!

Brimbank Welcome Walk is another great track suitable for walkers of all experience levels. It's a steady contour that is mostly paved and shared by both pedestrians and cyclists. This walk has picnic spots, playgrounds, public toilets and seating available. Keep an eye out for Wallabies and Blue Fairy Wrens.

What if you bought in St Albans 10 years ago? 100% gain

As Melbourne continues to experience unprecedented levels of population growth, housing affordability and urban sprawl are amongst some of the greatest challenges facing the city, with traffic congestion and long commute times on the rise. 

In response to this, the 20-minute city concept was proposed as part of the solution to addressing some of these issues and one which is increasingly being realised in Melbourne’s inner and middle ring suburbs with many choosing to live, work and play in close proximity.

Additionally many are adopting apartment living as a means of entering the housing market as an affordable alternative to traditional housing or renting.

Image : DTPLI" width="580"></a>

<figcaption>The 20-minute neighbourhood. Image: DTPLI</figcaption></figure>The 20-minute concept is one of the core focuses of the Andrews government’s Plan Melbourne blueprint for 2050, with the idea of creating a series of ‘20-minute neighbourhoods’, where people can access everything from work, recreation, schools and medical care all within 20 minutes from home. 

This has been evident in Cedar Woods' St Albans master planned community St.A, where a number of sales have gone to buyers wanting to live close to the amenity offered within the suburb.

The Maple Release, the latest release in St.A, is already 80 per cent sold since launching in March and so far the majority of sales have been to the owner-occupier market.

Phung Nguyen, a 28-year-old radiographer, and her partner recently purchased a four-bedroom townhouse in St.A, primarily due to its close proximity to her workplace as well as the best shops and amenity in the area.

<blockquote>
Our reasons for purchasing a property in St.A came down to the location. I work in several different hospitals in the western areas and this played a huge role in the locations we were looking at.

We plan on spending a majority of our time living locally. St.A is pretty much in the heart of the suburb, we will look to utilise local services on Alfrieda Street for day-today tasks such as dining out, groceries and the medical centre.

<figcaption>Cedar Woods' St A development takes advantage of the 20-minute concept. Image: Cedar Woods</figcaption></figure>In response to the issue of housing affordability Cedar Woods' other current master planned development - Jackson Green in Clayton South - has seen buyers choosing to buy an apartment instead of renting, with over 40 per cent of owner-occupier purchasers in Gardenia apartments first home buyers.

According to Cedar Woods Chief Operating Officer Patrick Archer, Gardenia apartments offer buyers, particularly young couples genuine chance to enter the property market.

Eloise Wilmann, a 27-year-old student and administration worker, and her fiancée Alex Lewis were tired of Melbourne’s expensive and unreliable rental market, and made the decision to purchase their first property together, a two-bedroom apartment at Gardenia for $539,000.

<blockquote>
Our mortgage repayments are likely to be around $2,200 per month, only slightly more than our $1,900 monthly rent in Clayton, and we don’t have to worry about being forced to move out with little notice or rental increase – which was due at our next lease renewal.

Both traditional houses as well as townhouses have always been out of our price range. We were delighted when we found the Gardenia apartments, they were still large but offered us a way in. My partner and I have wanted to enter the property market for some time now, but had not been in the right financial situation nor found somewhere we would be happy with. We love living in Clayton and wanted to purchase a property around this area that was affordable and suitable for our two dogs.
