Village living at Chapter Ashburton

KM Develop, the development arm of investment and advisory firm KordaMentha, has recently launched its luxury Ashburton apartment project to the market.

The development, known as Chapter, delivers a boutique collection of just 24 one, two and three-bedroom apartments at 363-367 High Street, Ashburton - in the heart of Melbourne&#39;s&nbsp;thriving southeast.

KM Develop&#39;s Managing Director Steven Wong says Chapter is a rare offering for Ashburton and surrounding suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105071 project_image_fid=198018]

&quot;Apartment projects of this quality do not exist in Ashburton&quot; Wong says.

&quot;The options for people to downsize within this area are very limited. People love living in Ashburton because of it&#39;s&nbsp;great vibe and strong sense of community. We saw an opportunity to fill a gap and to provide high quality apartments equal to those you see in Glen Iris, Malvern and Camberwell.&rdquo;

Wong says Ashburton and the location of &lsquo;Chapter&rsquo; is similar, if not better to other high end apartment projects you see along High Street and Malvern Road in Glen Iris and Toorak Road in Camberwell.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105071 project_image_fid=198015]

&quot;We can offer the same quality and amenity at Chapter for a far more affordable price, and there is far less competing projects in Ashburton which assists capital appreciation and rental values,&quot; Wong added.

Designed by renown architects Ewert Leaf, Chapter presents secure residences encased in a timeless fa&ccedil;ade, with spacious&nbsp; and well thought out open plan living arrangements, lots of natural light, generous private open spaces and high quality fixtures and fittings.

Ewert Leaf Managing Director, Will Leaf says &ldquo;Chapter incorporates a timeless fa&ccedil;ade and immaculate interiors reflecting an organic palette of warm timbers and natural stone, taking cues from the leafy surroundings of Gardiner&rsquo;s Creek, local parks and reserves set in amongst the heart of Ashburton.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105071 project_image_fid=198021]

&lsquo;Chapter&rsquo; is being marketed and sold by Farey &amp; Co.&nbsp;

Director Jarrod Farey says Chapter is a high quality, boutique development in a fantastic location.&nbsp;

&quot;We&rsquo;ve had some strong success to date and the majority of the buyers have been downsizers and owner occupiers attracted by the amenity, surrounding the project, the generous apartment sizes, design quality and value,&quot; Farey says.

Green spaces and landscaping has been designed by John Patrick Landscape Architects.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=105071 project_image_fid=198012]

A Melbourne investor has forked out $1.77 million for a retail property located on High Street, Ashburton.
Located on the tightly held Ashburton shopping strip, the property is a 167 square metre double story building with a 117 square metre retail space on the ground floor and a 50 square metre level on top.
The property was sold fully leased with two tenants who are returning $70,904 per annum.
The address is currently being used as a clothing outlet named Black Pepper, and a body and skin clinic called Beauty Up.
George Takis, at Teska Carson, said the strong result reflected the very tightly held retail strip location.
“The last property we sold in this precinct had been held for 50 years, underlining just how tightly held these properties have become and how rare opportunities for investors are,” Takis said.
Takis said the booming population in the area had helped to boost the value of retail space.
He noted that the potential for future development on the strip represented a significant part of the property’s appeal.
