Everton Park

The amenity offering in residential developments is always a hot topic, with many developers of late forming their own exclusive clubs within their projects.&nbsp;

The likes of resort-inspired pools, sun lounges, gyms and even teppanyaki grills are becoming standard, as more developers look to elevate homebuyers lifestyles’.&nbsp;

At Mirvac’s Ashford Residences at Everton Park in Brisbane’s inner-north, more than $2.5 million has been invested in the Ashford Club, offering a suite of residential facilities overlooking a one-hectare eco area to the Kedron Brook parkland.

Featuring a pool with a splash area for children, lounge chairs, a teppanyaki grill, fire pit, barbecue facilities, a turfed area for entertaining and a gym, the club is appealing to purchasers across the board, from first home buyers, to professionals, families and downsizers.

The ASX-listed group have notched up more than $80 million in sales since launching the Ashford Residences, with the final four homesites now officially launched to the market. &nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28504 project_image_fid=207507]

Mirvac General Manager Residential Queensland, Warwick Bible, said buyers were embracing the Ashford Club, designed to raise the bar for luxury living in Brisbane’s inner-north.

“We’ve seen lifestyle becoming an increasing emphasis for homebuyers for some time, and this has been accelerated even further post Covid-19,” he said.

“People are looking for a home that delivers more. Many are moving from apartments where they have had access to resort amenities, and they want the same level of lifestyle in a new community.

“These facilities also create a space for residents to form a real sense of community and connection, to host family and friends and enjoy facilities like the pool, gym and teppanyaki bar without owning and maintaining them – all factors that add to their appeal.”

Registered and ready to build on, the final lots range from 405 sqm and are priced from $730,000, offering a rare opportunity to build new, just seven kilometres from the Brisbane CBD.

Jaime Andueza, who purchased a 420 sqm lot at Ashford Residences, said the extensive residents’ facilities were a significant point of difference and key factor in his decision to move to the inner-north, after living southside for two decades.

The Chief Digital Officer and his partner, Aaron, are putting the finishing touches on their new five-bedroom, three living and five-bathroom home, which they anticipate moving into by Christmas.

“The Ashford Club has an elegant design, which is a differentiator from any other development we viewed,” said Andueza.

“There’s an incredibly beautiful view to the Kedron Brook, so you can go to the pool area and absorb the nature around you. It is luxurious and privileged, considering it is so close to the city.”

Andueza said his first impression of Ashford Residences was ‘sensational’.

“I had been looking at what was available in the market and had always wanted to build. When I saw the location of the blocks of land at Ashford Residences, I immediately realised it was a great opportunity,” he said.

“Having compared it to existing homes elsewhere, I felt the value and lifestyle offered was 
significantly greater. We’re looking forward to the neighbourly atmosphere and being part of the Ashford community.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28504 project_image_fid=207502]

Ashford Residences have been a hit among buyers, with the most recent terrace home release selling-out to a waiting list prior to its official launch.&nbsp;

“We held the final four lots for release when they were ready to build on and buyers could see how the community had taken shape, and anticipate they will be in high demand,” Bible said.

“The opportunity to build new in this area is extremely rare and the location alongside Kedron Brook only adds to the desirability, as does the exclusive residents’ facilities in the Ashford Club.

“The proximity to Brisbane CBD and the village charm of Everton Park, home to an expanding mix of restaurants, cafes, bars and shops, is also seeing buyers zero in on the area.”

Ashford Residences will comprise a total of 124 residences upon completion in late 2023, with 80 terrace homes and 43 freestanding homes.&nbsp;

The final property, a heritage Queenslander known as Murphy’s Dairy Residence, is anticipated to launch to market early next year. Refurbishment works are underway on the historic home, which is situated on a rare 900 sqm lot that has been meticulously landscaped.

Mirvac deliver resident’s club to entice new homebuyers to Ashford Residences 

The final release of town and terrace homes within Rogerscorp’s Fable development in Everton Park has been fast-tracked to meet demand after the success of Stage One.

Launched in April this year, Fable by Rogerscorp, has already attracted strong demand from a diverse range of buyers including upgraders, retirees and a new post-Covid buyer type, ‘family rightsizers’ seeking convenience, lifestyle and easy access to amenity within connected suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196534]

Ten of the residences have already been sold to a waitlist of buyers prior to public launch.

Fable’s second and final stage comprises 26 town and terrace homes with four floorplan designs ranging from 186 sqm to 216 sqm – virtually a small lot home.&nbsp;

Many feature a double garage, study nook, butler's pantry, as well as spacious master-bedrooms with double vanity ensuites.&nbsp;

Each of the kitchens boast floor to ceiling timber cabinetry, a breakfast bar, butlers or walk-in pantries, Smeg appliances including induction cooktop and semi-integrated dishwasher and generously-appointed storage options.

Created by an all-local team of Queensland-based designers and property experts - Rogerscorp, Z Architects, Devcon Property Group and Position Property - the vision for Fable&nbsp;captures the modern southeast Queenslanders’ home in a connected urban community with a green heart.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=200119]

Rogerscorp Director Simon Rogers said Fable’s desirable location and homely communal design had been a major drawcard for a variety of buyer types.

“Fable has been designed as a community for modern families of all ages and sizes to connect, relax and unwind in the heart of Everton Park, which is exactly the lifestyle people are seeking post-Covid,” said Rogers.

“The amenities at Fable mimic those within the humble Queensland-style backyard, such as the barbecue and pizza oven, resort style pool with loungers, herb garden, open lawn space and fire pit, allowing residents to come together and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.”

Rogerscorp has appointed residential home builder, Devcon Building Co to commence construction of Fable in January 2023 following the success of its partnership on Nest, a townhome project in Bracken Ridge.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196538]

Position Property's Richard Lawrence said the early sales success experienced at Fable reflects the desirability of the project’s urban neighbourhood concept.

“Fable is already attracting a wide variety of buyer types seeking a home with access to amenities right on their doorstep, which is exactly what the project was designed for,” said Lawrence.

“The strong interest we have received in Stage One has resulted in a waitlist for the final stage, so we anticipate these fast-tracked residences will sell quickly.”

Fable offers a total of 57, three-bedroom town and terrace homes with a choice of warm or light interiors and premium features throughout, including&nbsp;freestanding baths and waterfall showers, seamless indoor-outdoor living areas, flowing Coastal oak flooring and generous floor plan designs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196537]

At the central heart of the community is Fable’s resort-style pool, pocket park, outdoor kitchen and dining and yoga lawn.

Rogerscorp is a family-owned property development and investment company, with a diversified portfolio of commercial, healthcare, retail, childcare and residential projects.

The group has a growing portfolio valued at over $280 million, with new sites being acquired swiftly the company is set to nearly double their portfolio just this year.

Located just 8-kilometres from the CBD and only 15-minutes to the Brisbane Airport, Fable is placed to take advantage of both the immediate neighbourhood as well as the wider Brisbane City.

Previously&nbsp;the idea for the site was for high density apartments across four buildings, but&nbsp;Rogerscorp Director Simon Rogers said the new plans meet the evolving needs of the surrounding neighbourhood and ensures families have modern living options within the community that suit their lifestyle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196538]

&ldquo;Everton Park is one of the suburbs in north-west Brisbane that has changed rapidly in recent years thanks to a variety of new amenity and &lsquo;city lifestyle&rsquo; offerings,&quot; Rogers said.

&ldquo;We wanted to challenge the ideals of residential living and introduce elements of resort style living.

&quot;We realised this offered more opportunity for the residents to do what they love and enjoy most.&quot;

From the surroundings, the development was designed almost as&nbsp;an enclosed city,<text data-test="textbox" direction="ltr" height="11.032958984375" lengthadjust="spacingAndGlyphs" textlength="317.213584899902" x="65.5268936157227" y="-652.341064453125"> to ensure resident privacy from the adjoining commercial precinct.</text>

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196534]

Designed by Z Architects, the material palette allows for these dwellings to be seen as a unified object from afar, yet upon closer inspection, the individualism of each dwelling stands out.

Similar to the site being surrounded by amenity, the masterplan surrounds a central park, the focal point of private amenity and congregation for the residents and its visitors. Residents will enjoy ultra-exclusivity with an array of resort-style facilities&nbsp;including recreation and relaxation amenities like a pool, sun lounges, herb and veggie garden, barbecue pavilion, pizza oven, and fire pits.

Precinct planning in the design was key to afford each concourse an identity dissimilar to that of another. This is done through a variance of unparalleled built forms, a strategy not often associated with townhouse developments. In doing so it creates an identity and a sense of belonging to each dwelling that is unique to its setting within the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196540]

The town and terrace homes include designer appliances and high-quality finishes throughout.

On the ground floor of each townhouse is a minimum of two cars, laundry and a terrace<text data-test="textbox" direction="ltr" height="11.0330200195312" lengthadjust="spacingAndGlyphs" textlength="496.722793579102" x="66.0768890380859" y="-382.340972900391"> leading to the backyard.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112680 project_image_fid=196537]

&quot;As the modern way of living changes, the way we think about and design homes must also adapt. To us, this meant creating spaces that were inviting and nurturing, where self-care and wellbeing simply became part of everyday life.&rdquo;

&ldquo;Fable was curated to be a collection of ultra-modern, sustainable and bespoke masterpieces,&quot; Rogers added.

&quot;Through well considered architecture it seamlessly fuses with the surrounding urban and natural area, this is why Fable is set to redefine urban living.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=112680]

Rogerscorp Director Simon Rogers said the new plans meet the evolving needs of the surrounding neighbourhood and ensures families have modern living options within the community that suit their lifestyle.

Rogerscorp set to launch Fable, Everton Park townhouse development

The national developer Mirvac has seen buyers snap up the first release of Ashford Residences, its Everton Park project just north of the CBD.

All of the 24 terraces have been snapped up which has seen Mirvac bring forward construction to this month.

The cheap entry point, starting at $630,000, has seen first home buyers dominate the purchasers. There we 10 first home buyers, accounting for over 40 per cent of the buyer demographic. They&#39;ve taken advantage of the $15,000 HomeBuilder grant and the $15,000 first home buyer grant.

There were five downsizer purchases and five investors who are getting back in to the market, and four buyers upgrading.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28504]

Mirvac have appointed Brighton Homes to deliver the 80 Ashford Residences townhouses, with further stages to also be fast-tracked and released to the market in the coming weeks. There has already been expressions of interest in the next lot of 33 terraces, some of which have up to 217 sqm of space.

There will also be 43 freestanding homes in the wider development.

Each purchaser has the opportunity to customise their terrace, with the ability to choose from five main colour schemes and a number of different fittings. 
 
Warwick Bible,&nbsp;Mirvac&#39;s&nbsp;general manager of residential development&nbsp;said he was pleased to have Brighton Homes on board to ensure the quality of construction was on par with the community&rsquo;s stellar location alongside Kedron Brook and five star resident facilities.

&ldquo;This is the first built product at Ashford Residences and we are confident Brighton Homes will bring these beautifully crafted terraces to life exactly as we have imagined,&rdquo; he said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28504 project_image_fid=150616]

&ldquo;As with all Mirvac communities, we have designed the terrace homes to embrace the look and feel of their surroundings, so in this case it&rsquo;s all about capturing light, breezes and appreciating the natural, leafy surrounds of the adjacent Kedron Brook.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve extended the greenery in to our community with each home boasting a landscaped private courtyard, along with access to the Ashford Club, which features a communal turfed area for residents to relax and entertain guests, complemented by resort-style amenities including a pool, barbeque, teppanyaki grill, fire pit and gymnasium.

&ldquo;Lifestyle has been a major drawcard for purchasers, who have been predominantly local owner-occupiers including families, downsizers and first time buyers &ndash; who will enjoy the convenience of having multiple schools nearby along with the revitalised Everton Park Plaza with a range of new restaurants and cafes.

&ldquo;With construction starting on the first stage, we&rsquo;re expecting the strong demand to continue from buyers looking for a brand new home they can move in to soon, with completion on the first stage expected by late 2021/early 2022.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=28504]

There’s good news for former ­Cronulla Sharks star Ben Barba.
He’s finally managed to offload his former Brisbane home after just under a year on the market. He got $800,000 for it, having sought offers over $849,000 when first listed.
The price for the four-bedroom Everton Park home was revised down to offers over $799,000 before its sale.
Barba paid $769,000 in 2013, after his move to the Broncos. He only spent one season at Red Hill before moving to the Sharks.
It was a better result for Barba than he had on his Shire home.
Barba, now a labourer in North Queensland after being deregistered from the NRL for a string of high-profile incidents, sold his former ­Caringbah South home for $1,085,000 last year, nearly $100,000 less than he paid five years earlier.

Former rugby league star Ben Barba is selling his Brisbane investment property.
Barba, whose fall from grace has seen him swap a $500,000-a-year league career to being a labourer, paid $769,000 in 2013 for <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-everton+park-130905414" target="_blank">the Everton Park home</a>.
It was bought after his move to the Broncos.
Barba only spent one season at Red Hill before moving to the Cronulla Sharks when the four-bedroom home became a $750 a week rental.
Innov8 Property Sales ­Albany Creek agent Michael Spillane is seeking offers above $849,000.
The vast 1985-built home sits on 1100 square metres.
Barba retains his $1.18 million Caringbah South home that became a rental after the winger headed to France to play rugby union in 2017.
The former Dally M Medallist currently faces two charges of public nuisance following an alleged domestic violence incident on Australia Day at the Townsville Casino with his partner Ainslie Currie, which led to his sacking by the North Queensland Cowboys.
With his league career in tatters, Barba has been a lab­ourer at a Mackay garage door manufacturing business owned by his cousin Adam Doull.
Meanwhile, Barba plays soccer for the Mackay Rangers in the Mackay Premier League.

EG, one of Australia’s leading commercial real estate fund managers, draws the Core Plus Fund (CPF1) to a close with the successful sale of North West Plaza, Everton Park QLD.
EG’s CPF1 was initiated in 2014 with a total gross acquisition asset value of $231 million across 7 assets over a 3-year acquisition horizon. 
The Fund consisted of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane office, industrial and retail real estate assets which had the potential for uplift via strategic capital works and active asset management initiatives.
“We are incredibly happy with the performance of CPF1. The Fund has vindicated the investment strategy of identifying and acquiring assets which disproportionally benefit from repositioning while also ensuring strong underlying cash-flows on limited downside risk” Divisional Director, Daniel Farley said.
Assets within this portfolio also included office properties 92 Pitt Street Sydney, 277 William Street Melbourne and 223 Liverpool St, Darlinghurst.
 The Fund will deliver net returns to investors of well over 20% EIRR.
The final disposal for the Fund was Brisbane neighbourhood shopping centre, North West Plaza, (pictured above) which has transacted at $42.5 million in June 2019. 
The successor fund, EG’s Australian Core Enhanced Fund (EG ACE) has completed its first close of $500 million and is open for further investment for the next 12 months.

The Monarc Health &amp; Childcare Hub, in Everton Park, has commenced construction and is expected to be open by mid-2020.
Located at 55 Woolworths Street, Everton Park, the Health &amp; Childcare Hub is the first stage of a 1.1 hectare mixed use urban precinct called Monarc that received Brisbane City Council approval in June.
Local Brisbane developer Rogerscorp is developing the holding, which will ultimately include the Health &amp; Childcare Hub, accompanied by four residential apartment towers.
Three tenants have already pre-committed to the development, making it 90% occupied.
The Monarc Health &amp; Childcare Hub totals approximately 2,763 square metres over 3 levels, and features 72 carparking bays with all levels connected by elevators.
The Everton Park Medical Centre was secured on a 10-year lease with two 5-year options by Harry Dever and Chris O’Driscoll from Colliers International who are exclusively marketing the first stage of the development. They will be occupying 600 square metres within the Hub and will be co-located alongside two other pre-committed tenants. 
One of them is Harmony Early Learning Journey which is founded and operated by Chris and Gabrielle Giufre. They will open a 112 place childcare centre after signing a 20-year lease term with two 5-year options through Mitchell Willet from Cushman &amp; Wakefield.
The third tenant will be a Chemist occupying 200 square metres which Rogerscorp has secured on a 10-year lease term with two 5-year options.
