Market price rises forecast to continue The median house price in Perth now exceeds $500,000 after property market bounces back in the final months of 2009. PERTH property prices could rise by more than 10 per cent this year, after experiencing their strongest growth spurt in more than three years. After a sluggish start to 2009, the year ended with the strongest annual house price growth since 2003, according to Australian Property Monitors’ Quarterly Housing report. For the December quarter, the Australian property market posted a near five per cent rise (4.8 per cent) in median house prices nationally, with a 12.1 per cent rise overall for the year. Perth showed a 3.1 per cent price rise in the final three months of 2009, the highest
The western suburb of Churchlands showed the highest house price growth of any suburb in 2009, with the median rising 43.8 per cent. CARMELLE SANDER Editor
quarterly rise since September 2006, as the median house price surged back over the $500,000 mark – a level last seen nearly two years ago. The median price is now $512,178, the highest since March 2008, while units have reached a record $385,001. “The price growth seen in the more expensive suburbs in 2009 has largely been a recovery of the price falls that have occurred since late 2007 and early 2008,’’ APM
economist Matthew Bell said. “This top-end recovery has been completed in most capitals, with median house prices surpassing pre-GFC highs for the first time in the December quarter in Perth, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide.’’ Although first-home buyer demand sustained the market in the early part of the year, ultimately it was upgraders and investors that drove the extraordinary overall result for 2009. “Rising interest rates and the full expiry of the First Home Owner Boost at the end of December are likely to continue to slow activity for first-home buyers,’’ he said. “While the recovery of top-end prices to pre-GFC levels means that median price growth is likely to moderate across all sectors of the market in the first half of 2010, the medium-to-long term outlook for property prices remains strong.’’ Mr Bell predicted Perth could see weekly rent in metropolitan areas exceed $400 this year.

Inner and near-city area highs expected to create a ripple effect Perth population projected to increase to 2.2 million people by 2027, putting further pressure on land resources for building. LAND sales auction results for the near-city area in the past two months indicate a major revival in the local property market. According to Propell National Valuers’ valuations manager Travis Coleman, land prices historically are a key factor in setting overall property values and recent auctions of vacant land within a 10km radius of the inner city have been very encouraging. “In Joondanna, for example, vacant blocks recently sold well in excess of market expectations and there have also been very positive auction results for other vacant land lots and development sites in the near-city suburbs of Perth,’’ he said. “Demand for vacant lots and development sites in the inner and near-city area of Perth are
expected to increase during 2010 because historically these areas appreciate in value the fastest during the early stages of an upswing in the property market, due to their relative scarcity factor.” Mr Coleman said property buyers understood that land prices in these areas now offer exceptional value after a major discounting in prices following the global financial crisis. “Rising land values in near and inner-city areas over the longer term will have a ripple effect on land values in the middle to outer Perth suburbs over the coming year,’’ he said. “Over the long term, land values in inner and the near-city areas of Perth are set for a major upward market correction due to our
“This huge population increase will result in further pressure on building land resources,’’ he said. “Land which has the greatest scarcity factor, such as near the city or the coast, will appreciate the strongest as a result of this boom in population.” He said astute property buyers who are looking ahead over the next two decades should therefore focus on prime land in these nearcity areas, especially in older suburbs east of Wanneroo Road Land prices are key: Propell National Valuers’ valuations manager Travis Coleman.
surging population.” Mr Coleman said it was projected that Perth’s current estimated resident population of
about 1.6 million people will increase by 600,000 people to more than 2.2 million by 2027 – an increase of about 40 per cent.

Befitting a breathtaking address Built into the cliff face on WA’s most prestigious street, this luxurious six-bedroom home leaves nothing to be desired. By JANE EVANS OH to live on Saunders Street. Considered the most exclusive and prestigious street in Western Australia, the rising cliff face in Mosman Park is home to some of the State’s most lavish properties. Number 18 is certainly one of them. The generous and sophisticated sixbedroom, four-bathroom home was originally built in the late 1970s but underwent a major renovation a year ago. Perhaps the most unique and appealing feature of the home is its rooftop terrace garden and swimming pool with a view words cannot describe. It is the only home on the street built into
the cliff face yet flanked by such generous lawn frontage. The property was designed to capture views of the Swan River, Freshwater Bay and Perth City from most rooms of the house, and this it does. There are four split levels of zoned living, designed perfectly for a family. The current owners have four young children who are well catered for in this residence, as is their au pair who has her own quarters within the home. No expense has been spared, with the highest quality fittings used throughout. On the first floor, a galley kitchen, dining
and informal living area flow into the garden and alfresco with the backdrop of twinkling lights. A nursery, family and activity room are also located on this floor. The bedrooms are spacious with luxurious ensuites and plenty of room to play or relax in. A shady landscaped courtyard at the rear of the home is the ideal spot to steal a moment on one’s own, away from the activity of the house. This stunning home epitomises luxury living on the river. It is the western suburbs at their best. ■

Custom designed for discerning tastes All you could possibly want in a luxurious, comfortable and secure family home. By JANE EVANS THE owner of this Dalkeith property poured his heart and soul into the design of it, sparing no expense to create the perfect family home. Completed in March 2009, it is testament to high quality combined with practicality for easy modern living. In-Vogue Designs built the home but the owner said it has a distinct individuality. Natural materials such as travertine and stone have been used extensively throughout the wet areas to create a sleek hotel-like feeling. Remote-controlled gates secure the premises and a coloured LCD screen with a camera and intercom allows viewing of callers at the gate without having to go outside. A leafy courtyard with a stone water feature creates an inviting entrance into the home. A home office and guest bedroom with ensuite and walk-in robe are just off the foyer. Further on, the kitchen, main living and
dining area are combined in an open-plan arrangement that forms the central hub of the home. The state-of-the-art galley kitchen has good-quality stainless-steel appliances, including a built-in blender and juicer and a
Meile dishwasher integrated into the cabinetwork, which has soft close-tracking systems. Overhead and underneath cabinets have frosted glass fronts and built-in lighting. Bi-fold doors in the central living area can
be opened to allow integration with the outside alfresco, which has a stainless-steel gas barbecue and wok burner, preparation bench and sink. The alfresco also has cafe blinds and remote-controlled louvres so the external space can be used all year round. A luxurious cinema room with a coffered ceiling is next to the kitchen. It features a Sony Bravia projector and massive screen, which will stay in the home. The five generous bedrooms all have walkin robes and built-in shelving. The main bedroom is on the upper level and has an ensuite with a spa bath and sitting area. The suite is flanked by a parents’ retreat with a kitchenette and tree-top views on the second level, ideal for entertaining with friends while children play downstairs. “We wanted to incorporate everything you could possibly want in a family home,” said the owner. And they have. ■

Hidden treasure in bold design Award-winning property offers many striking features. By JANE EVANS bold, and said it was not a house that would ever go unnoticed. The present owners bought the home in 2006. While the owner said he had always been attracted to contemporary architecture, his wife said she had difficulty sharing his vision for the home because it was initially very industrial and stark. Four years on, they have made it their own, adding warmth, colour and texture to transform the property into their ideal family home. One of the most prominent features of the almost 2000 square metre site is the tennis court and Patroni used this as a metaphor throughout the house. The tennis court theme is highlighted in the form of a large tramline like spine wall that runs through the home and allows the configuration of the house to be adjusted to suit the situation.
The wall as a tramline is a metaphor borrowed from the dynamic nature in which a tennis court accommodates games for either singles or doubles. A formal entrance featuring a PH artichoke pendant light flows into a splitlevel central living and dining area overlooked by a commercial galley style kitchen. Perhaps the most striking element of the home is the swimming pool and open cabana, which front the tennis court and tropically-landscaped surrounds. There are four bedrooms and three bathrooms, a clubroom, two living areas, a home office and activity room and several timber-decked terraces. The parents’ wing, which includes the master suite, dressing room and ensuite, is very special in that it can be completely closed off from the rest of the second level, at the push of a swivel door. ■

The owner described it as an onion; with each layer peeled back, it reveals more hidden layers beneath. “Everywhere you turn, there are new things to discover,” he said. “It’s a very fun house.” Disguised doors, a rooftop fishpond and concealed access to the carpark of Cottesloe Central Shopping Centre are just some of the home’s hidden treasures. Built in 2001 by Michael Patroni, the remarkable home was awarded the 2002 Single Residential Architecture award by the WA chapter of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects. The judges were impressed with the home’s contemporary architecture and presence. They called the design challenging and

Bask in beach-front bliss close to the city Exclusive Tuscan home in idyllic location. By JANE EVANS THERE aren’t many homes that have direct access to one of the world’s most beautiful beaches, but 50 Branksome Gardens is among them. The double-storey City Beach property is one of only several houses along an exclusive beach-front strip, located on the west side of West Coast Highway. With 180-degree panoramic views from the second floor and a gate that opens onto the dunes from the first floor, this highly sought after opportunity is rare. It is perhaps no surprise then, that the owners are moving just 10 houses down. Having bought the 12-year-old property four years ago, they have
refurbished it completely. It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and plenty of space for the family to stretch out and enjoy the stunning location. The Tuscan villa-style refurbishment is evident from the façade of the home, set back amid a lush landscaped garden. French doors open into a formal entrance, with a sweeping curved staircase to the second level. Blackbutt polished timber flooring flows throughout. The modern kitchen features stainless steel De Longhi gas appliances and a Bosch dishwasher. It is flanked by an informal lounge and dining, with views over the solar-heated swimming pool.
The low maintenance back yard comprises a timber decked alfresco and a small grassed area with a built-in stainless steel barbeque. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a master suite with an executive ensuite featuring ocean views from a spa bath. There is a spacious second living area on this level, next to a northfacing balcony with electric shade awnings. Additional features of the home include an electronic intercom at the front gate, reverse cycle airconditioning and automatic reticulation. This family home offers modern living mere metres from the Indian Ocean. ■

Insurance can help cover your bet on the house WITH three interest rate rises behind us and more forecast for later this year, more homeowners are considering insurance to help them meet their repayments if they fall into financial difficulty. Resi Mortgage Corp. head of consumer advocacy Lisa Montgomery says many people were unaware of the types of insurance policies that can help pay the mortgage if you lose your job or cannot work because you are ill or injured. “When you’re getting a mortgage you are usually stressed and just focused on getting that loan approved and the whole moving process,”' Ms Montgomery says. “Insurance is something that most people decide to leave until later but many never get around to it. That could be an expensive mistake, especially with repayments on the rise.”' The types of insurance that property owners and investors should understand include: Income protection insurance, which will pay out a proportion of your income, usually up to about 75 per cent of your last job’s salary, if illness or injury prevents you from working. However, it is a complex area and if you take the
wrong policy you may very well find that it will not pay out when you need it. There is Lenders Mortgage Insurance, a requirement by lenders where people do not have a deposit of more than 20 per cent for the property. LMI covers the lender for the shortfall of the price of the property if the borrower defaults on their loan. Mortgage protection insurance, which can be confused with lenders mortgage insurance is potentially a costly mistake. Mortgage protection is a hybrid of income protection insurance and life insurance. If you are ill or die, the policy pays out, but choose your policy carefully according to your personal circumstances. For example, there is little point taking out any life cover if you are single with no dependents. In these cases, most people would be happy for their property to be sold and any proceeds added to their estate. Landlords’ insurance is a handy policy to have if your tenants default on their rent or damage your property. Some will also pay the rent while repairs are carried out if the tenants damaged the property. Shop around online to see what policy suits you best. ■

Character and charisma in Cottesloe This elegant and large family home in a premium location features an addition that complements the charm of the original building. By JANE EVANS
BUILT in 1910 and extended nine years ago, this beautiful Cottesloe property blends character charm with modern convenience. The owners have lived in the spacious fivebedroom property for more than 20 years and it is not hard to see why they are attached to the house and its fantastic location. The property is in the heart of Cottesloe, just a few minutes’ walk over the hill to the beach. Set on a large leafy corner block, the surrounds are calm and peaceful. A brick and wrought iron fence encloses the front rose-lined yard and timber
verandah. There is also a second secure fenced entrance off Henry Street. Inside, polished jarrah floorboards and high ceilings feature throughout the first level. There are also several fireplaces. An elegant formal dining room in the centre of the house has a large floor-to-ceiling window overlooking a landscaped water feature. French doors lead into the addition, which includes a stunning country-style kitchen with American redwood cabinetry, an informal dining area and a spacious carpeted lounge. Another set of french doors opens out to a
beautifully landscaped back yard and alfresco. Limestone pavers surround the swimming pool and entertainment area with a built-in barbecue. There is also a large grassed area. The second level of the home comprises three other bedrooms including the master suite and a luxuriously appointed ensuite. Positioned on a north-facing block, the home attracts a lot of sunlight, complementing its neutral interior and creating a sense of spaciousness. The integration of “old” with “new” elements has worked wonderfully. ■
