Coastal ‘extras’ need attention Be aware of hidden costs like window sizes and roof structures when building near the sea
CARMELLE WILKINSON Editor
“You should be aware that there is a wind loading which can affect items such as window sizes and roof structure. “Wind loadings come with specific ratings and each has requirements for roof tiedown methods and components.” Mr Kinder said that with regard to corrosion, galvanized
structural steel and stainless steel brick ties were a requirement if building close to the beach. “In terms of roof cover, for example, there are several different levels of metal roofing options, and if your home is within close proximity to the coast, then you should seek advice from your builder about just which product is needed. “Another key issue to consider when building on the coast is the position of the home. Most homes on the coast face west so when you design your home you have to consider other issues such as solar orientation if you are trying to maximise the view.”
Anthony Kinder
Mr Kinder said special products/requirements for building a new home on the coast can add costs to the overall budget. To avoid unnecessary surprises, your builder should help you identify these costs before the final building contract is signed. ■

WITH the life expectancy of Australians increasing, Professionals Real Estate Group CEO David Hobbs encourages homeowners to invest in property to ensure a comfortable retirement. Mr Hobbs said according to United Nations estimates, Australia had the joint David Hobbs... your super fourth-highest life fund alone is not enough. expectancy in the world (equal with Switzerland) over the period 2005 – 2010. “Advances in medicine and improvements in lifestyle mean that this generation now has the prospect of living much longer than previous generations,’’ he said. “This means that we need more money to fund our retirement as we are living much longer and staying healthier. “Relying totally on superannuation to fund your retirement may not be enough, given longer life expectancy rates, particularly with the current relatively low level of contributions made by most average income earners.” Mr Hobbs said by investing in well located real estate, people could enjoy the prospect of their investment increasing in value. “Over the last 30 years, for example, the median price of a home in Perth has increased from around $38,000 in 1980 to around $480,000 in 2010 – representing a more than 12-fold increase in property values over the past three decades,’’ he said. “Astute investors who purchased properties in high capital growth areas would have achieved even greater levels of capital growth over the 30-year period.” Mr Hobbs also encouraged younger people to invest in property as an attractive option to supplement their superannuation contributions. “There have also been recent changes to superannuation laws which make it easier for people to use their private self-managed superannuation funds to invest in property,’’ he said. “Over the longer term, the outlook for the WA property market remains very positive, so investing in property as part of a retirement plan should be given serious consideration as a form of long-term wealth creation.” For further advice on how you can incorporate property investment in your retirement plan, contact your local Professionals office by visiting professionalswa.com.au. ■

EVERYONE dreams of living near the beach; however, many are unaware of the special requirements associated with building a new home on the coast. According to Wilson & Hart home builders managing director Anthony Kinder, each year thousands of homes were built along the Perth coastal strip and most owners were not well informed when it came to building specifications. “If you are building a new home within 1km of the beachfront, you will be required to install specific products to deal with issues such as strong winds and resistance to corrosion,’’ he said.

Home’s opulence will leave you spellbound Three levels of luxury in prime coastal location. By CASSANDRA DE WIND SPRAWLED across three impressive levels, it’s hard not to be spellbound by the detail in this opulent coastal residence. Everything has been meticulously thought through to ensure all living quarters in the home coincide with the City Beach location; from the inclusion of a lift to the C-Bus power and lighting smart-wiring system. Clever usage of natural timber and limestone are evident as you walk towards the property’s imposing façade. Selling agent Christopher Dee said that before stepping through the front doors, you could not help but notice the landscaping, chrome balustrade and water feature, enhancing the home’s “commanding structure”. Wine lovers need not worry about storage of their collection – on the ground level, there is a climate-controlled cellar.
Moving up to the next level, the office is constructed on tasmanian oak flooring and is complete with built-in furniture. It opens out to the front balcony, an idyllic outdoor area overlooking the home’s exquisite gardens. The second storey has been planned as a wing for children and guests. It features an activity area with a kitchenette and back yard access, an abundance of storage space and three bedrooms Ocean views are best appreciated on the top floor across all living areas. It’s easy to take your grocery shopping straight from the garage to the kitchen at the top of the home, with the addition of a lift. For those who enjoy leisurely strolls, there is access from the back yard to a communal pathway, taking you through the park and directly onto the beach.The property includes an alarm with camera surveillance and airconditioning. ■

Winner takes all, just move in Luxurious styling and river vistas feature in this twostorey home,writesTANYA MACNAUGHTON IT is said that the convenience of buying a home takes away all the hassle of building, although there is usually the task of furnishing. The owners of this spectacular Mt Pleasant residence are offering a bonus by selling the house fully furnished with state-of-the-art furniture, theatre equipment, plasma screens and quality appliances. All of these extras complement the already stunning two-storey executive home, with luxurious styling and a tantalising panoramic view to match. Completed a year ago, the house is high on an elevated block with an alluring rendered facade and front wall for a secluded, landscaped garden. The front garden has a secure gated entrance and enough space for a pool, before reaching an inviting double door entrance. All three double sized minor bedrooms are on the ground floor, two generously sized with a built-in robe, while the third is currently
used as a study and is furnished with office furniture . A Miele washer and dryer are benefits in the big laundry. Like many other windows in the house, the home theatre has white shutters to maximise the view while retaining privacy. The main living zone takes up the majority of the first floor and once here, you will find it very hard to leave. River views span the entire length of this upper level – a vista that is maximised through the expanse of sliding doors – and from a spacious balcony with cedar-lined ceiling and additional outlook of the city skyline. A gas fireplace adds ambience to the family room. Sleek white cabinetry, long bench tops, a walk-in pantry and stainless steel appliances provide appeal to the modern kitchen. The master bedroom suite also has balcony access, a large walk-in robe and deluxe ensuite with full
tiling, twin basin vanity unit and double head shower. Features in the house include airconditioning, a security system and double garage with internal entry. The luxury fit out of this contemporary home is a true delight. ■

Harcourts WA chief executive Andrew Moore said the company’s charitable arm,The Harcourts Foundation, was part of its seven funding grants, which aim to provide financial support for local communities. In its first years, the foundation raised well over $760,000 in donations from Harcourts staff, offices and clients. Mr Moore said he was thrilled to be involved with Telethon and to have the opportunity to support such a worthy cause. “I’m grateful to be involved with Telethon and to present our donation which has been raised by our staff and clients,” he said. “We are so thankful to be in a position
where we are able to give back to the local communities which have supported us over the years.” With nearly 640 offices internationally, Harcourts is the fastest growing real estate agency in Australia. ■

Don’t overlook older units or apartments Many remain undervalued, are available and present capital growth opportunities, reports JANE EVANS WHEN looking to invest or break into the property market, older style apartments in inner and near city suburbs should not be overlooked, according to Jones Ballard Property Group director Shaun Yeo. Mr Yeo believes that older style town houses, units and villas in high capital growth nearcity areas such as Como, South Perth,Victoria Park and Rivervale remain relatively undervalued, despite rises in property values over the past five years. “A selection of older style apartments in these suburbs priced from under $350,000 are currently available,” he said. “Buying an older style apartment in a prime location offers investors and first-home buyers the opportunity to achieve high rates of capital growth over the long term. “In Como, for example, the median price of higher density homes such as units and apartments has increased on average each year by 12 per cent during the past 10 years.”
Mr Yeo said one of the key rules in real estate was that land appreciated while buildings depreciated. “Many of these older townhouses, units and villas in near-city areas are now approaching 25 to 30 years of age and therefore can be purchased for close to land value because the buildings are almost fully depreciated,” he said. “The land content of these older units can be quite high because they were constructed at a time when building land was more available. “Some older style townhouses in South Perth have rear gardens in excess of 60 square metres compared to new townhouses which can have courtyards as small as 20 square metres.” The location of these older style units in near-city areas therefore represented exceptional investment opportunities for astute investors wanting to capitalise on rising land values and increasing rental returns. ■

Dramatic design adds stamp of style In a cul-de-sac overlooking a peaceful bush reserve, this home could not be in a better position, writes SAMANTHA JONES WHEN contemporary stylings are a priority, you would be remiss not to consider this architecturally designed home. A skillion-roof structure enhanced by feature walls and minimalist gardens sets the stylish standard, which is continued inside. There are impressive elevations, which add further dimensions to the construction of its unique frontage. Built by Trevor MacKinnon, the interior blends a thoughtful layout with sleek and
stylish modern conveniences. A big master bedroom has high ceilings for extra spatial emphasis as well as a walk-in robe with built-in storage units and an ensuite. Blackbutt flooring throughout the living areas complements the crisp white decor. A big open-plan central living area combines the kitchen, lounge and dining area with the exterior. Blending seamlessly, this central zone adjoins
the alfresco area with extensive decking via wood panelled sliding doors. The designer kitchen is impressive with its striking white aesthetic, while a separate theatre offers further living space. Additional features include a plethora of storage options, airconditioning and a study. Overlooking a peaceful bush reserve, the home is at the end of a cul-de-sac on a 600sqm block. ■

Slice of Subi ‘down south’ Full of character and charm, it’s a winner as either a permanent residence or holiday home, writes SAMANTHA JONES THIS gorgeous Dunsborough home promotes a slice of Subi in the South West. Full of character and charm, the meticulously presented residence is worth a good look. Solid jarrah floorboards flow throughout the home, providing warmth and practicality. With a striking white aesthetic that complements the wooden flooring, the kitchen is central and has a built-in pantry, microwave recess, lots of cupboard space and an island bench. It is in the main living area, that includes a dining and lounge room with excellent access to the back ard alfresco area. The master suite with ensuite is very relaxing and basks in a gorgeous outlook to the pretty and private rear gardens.
All three minor bedrooms are generously proportioned and conveniently close to the main bathroom. Externally, the home uses the native greenery of the area effectively with landscaped gardens that complement the area’s tranquil ambience. A large, extra long carport with high-pitched ceiling has room for three cars and there is a large workshop with power, water and a ceiling fan. This could also be used as a living environment for teenagers. Near the sparkling waters that characterise the Dunsborough area, this would be ideal as a permanent residence or a holiday home. It is close to all local amenities as well as a host of tourist attractions. ■

Big Apple shares juicy art with Aussie walls Fresh flavours of New York , reports TANYA MACNAUGHTON SCANDINAVIAN Wallpaper & Decor is bringing a juicy slice of the Big Apple into Australian homes with its new NY Nature range of the wallpaper inspired by the concrete jungle where dreams are made. Exclusive Australian distributor and company managing director Ann-Louise Lollo Jansson said the collection incorporated a range of contributions from different disciplines such as graphic design, illustration and photography. It contains designs made up of 41 traditional printed wallpapers and two digital wallpaper murals. Some o`f the range is very urban, while other designs are a mixture of urban prints and nature, or more traditional looking nature prints. Fresh natural colours meet smoggy tones while delicate leaves, creeping vines and exotic flowers grow wild and unpredictably across the city that never sleeps. “The use of colours in these prints makes the wallpapers suitable for both men and women,” Ann-Louise said. “Some are very dark and bold while others are subtle and minimalistic. “And they all capture the essence of New York, the pulse, the movements of people and cars in a big city.” The Swedish interior designer said the range suited the Australian market as more people were living in urban areas and choosing to live in apartments. ‘In saying that, the prints are suitable for any
modern home,” she said.“Today’s people, young and older, are seeking interiors that reflect their personalities and that help them to put their own stamp on where they live. “The NY Nature range is mainly used for a feature wall to make a statement and there is no limitation on how many colours you
can add to a digital printed wall mural.” Ann-Louise said the murals were printed with the latest technology in digital print. There is no pattern repeat; they are printed on-demand and are custom-made to the required size. “The designs are very multi-purpose and can
be used for any room, for any age group,” she said. “This is certainly not a bland decoration. The only limitation is your imagination.” For further information, visit Scandinavian Wallpaper & Decor at www.wallpaperdecor.com. ■
