Back for an exciting challenge Executive leasing role lures ex-staffer back to the William Porteus Properties fold, writes JANE EVANS AFTER a year overseas – spent travelling through Europe – former William Porteous Properties International staff member Caroline Foley has returned to the Dalkeith office, in a brand new role. Ms Foley will head up a new executive leasing division at Porteous that will deal exclusively with the leasing of properties mainly in the western suburbs. Her aim is to provide owners and tenants with a personalised and individual
service. Ms Foley started working for William Porteous in 2007 and has had various roles throughout the years, culminating as accounts manager for the agency. Born in France, she speaks fluent French and some Spanish, having worked in administration in a variety of locations including London, Paris, Nice, Geneva, Malaga, and Guadeloupe in the French West Indies. “It is an exciting challenge,” Ms Foley said of her new role. “To start a leasing division from scratch takes time so I’m in
the process of building up our clientele. “But there is always something interesting happening,” she said. The Claremont resident said the new division would represent homes of certain calibre, to cater for the needs of a range of clients, including couples, families and businesses. The leasing division currently has several listings in Dalkeith, North Coogee, Trigg and Burswood. For all executive leasing enquiries, Caroline can be contacted by email at caroline@porteous. com.au or by mobile 0408 247 330. ■
Self-managed super funds look to property More relaxed rules and a shaky sharemarket play into funds’ hands FEAR of heavy share market losses and perhaps encouraged by the perceived safety of bricks and mortar, more West Australians are turning to property investment through their self-managed superannuation funds. Wembley based company, Faba Accountants & Advisors, said that legislative change in recent years, coupled with the recent volatility in the equities market, had led to a steady increase in the number of self-managed superannua-
A home could be a better bet than the volatile ASX.
tion funds (SMSFs) acquiring real property as part of their investment strategy, often by way of the limited resource borrowing arrangements. Director Andrew Rottigni said prior to the introduction of the limited recourse borrowing arrangement, property
investment via a SMSF was really the domain of those with substantial superannuation entitlements, given that all direct property investments had to be unencumbered. “The new borrowing rules have expanded the number of SMSFs capable of directly investing in
property,” he said. Fellow Faba director Paul Gabrielson said given the complexity of purchasing property through super, it wasn’t as simple as weighing up the pros and cons. “To determine whether or not this option is right for the individual can only be assessed by a full and detailed analysis of the specific circumstances of each SMSF, contemplating a property investment by using the limited recourse borrowing arrangements,” he said. ■ DISCLAIMER: The above advice is general only and should not be relied upon. Faba Accountants & Advisors emphasise that you should always seek further professional advice from a qualified accountant or financial advisor.
Caroline Foley has returned to Porteous to head up a new executive leasing division for high-end properties.
The pros may include ■ Rental income is taxed at 15% when the fund is in accumulation
phase, or not at all if the fund is in pension phase. ■ The capital gains on the disposal of the property is also taxed at
15% or taxed at 10% if the fund held the property for a period of greater than twelve months. Tax may also be at 0% if the fund is fully in pension phase.The Lender’s recourse is limited to the asset (the property). ■ Depending on the financial institution, the self-managed fund may
be able to borrow up to 60 to 70 per cent of the property value or otherwise have a related party provide the finance.
The cons may include ■ Limited recourse borrowing arrangements are relatively expen-
sive and complex to establish. ■ Restrictions are placed on improvements and redevelopment
while the property is still under the loan arrangement. ■ Liquidity. If the property is vacant for a significant period of time
the trustees may be unable to pay liabilities and pension payments if a member receives a pension. ■ Negative gearing has limited tax advantages as the super fund tax
rate is 15% and in some cases non-geared related trusts would be a more appropriate investment vehicle for a SMSF.

2011 NATIONAL WINNER
FILLING a niche in the local area are these new, executive green title homes. On the corner of Aldema Road and Waratah Avenue, the prestigious Dalkeith locale seems fitting for a new development of this kind. Cafes, shops and restaurants are on the residence’s doorstep, and the river, Claremont quarter and the city are all just a short drive away. Designed and built by Viking Property Group, the homes are aimed at those who want luxury and quality but not the hassle of a large block. Number 131 is the first of the three to be completed. The home is stylishly appointed with the highest quality of fittings, blending the best of classic style with contemporary practicality. Built to exacting standards, the residence has a clever floor plan.
The open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining spill out to a private secure courtyard with attractive landscaping. The kitchen appliances are complemented by chocolate and white cabinetry with a sophisticated breakfast bar. The master bedroom is on the ground floor with a stone ensuite and walk-inrobe. Two large bedrooms occupy the upper floor. One hundred per cent wool carpets have been used in the bedrooms with timber floors to the living areas and stairs. Other features include a signature security system with intercom, an electronic external gate, reticulation, air conditioning and a ducted vacuum system. This really is the ideal, highquality and secure ‘downsizer’ or an astute investment. ■

Divine inspiration Retrospective yet contemporary, writes JANE EVANS NUMBER 3 Gordon Street is a house that makes you stop and stare. Recently completed, the striking, double-storey stone structure – the vision of Conrad Oma of Grand Design Homes – is an architectural masterpiece. Mr Oma purchased a 1416sq m block with an old Methodist church on it at the corner of Gordon and Edward streets seven years ago. He then subdivided the block into three and has built the first of two homes (he plans to restore and extend the church as
his own residence.) A consulting engineer, Mr Oma is also a lover of architecture. Inspired by prominent mid20th century architects such as Pierre Koenig, Eero Sarrinen and Richard Neutra, the Gordon Street residence is retrospective while contemporary. The entrance opens into a vast living area – sunken from street level – with black bi-fold doors that open on to a magnificent courtyard terrace plunge pool. Further on, a sleek kitchen and dining area also open out to
the tree-lined courtyard, lending itself to entertaining of any nature. A wall of floor-to-ceiling glass runs the length of the second storey, capturing rooftop vistas. A striking travertine staircase with customised stainless steel bars connects the levels. Full-height marble with a subtle amethyst reflect lines the walls of the bathrooms, which are stunning in their own right. Mr Oma has included a separate shower with an exposed roof within the design of each bathroom, providing an invigor-
ating way to experience the elements, whatever the season. Three spacious bedrooms occupy the upper level, two of which have built-in-robes and desks in a light american walnut, offset by low sheen white lacquer cabinetry – a beautiful combination that continues in the kitchen and laundry. Each room in the house also features a stunning, Italian-style light fixture, a focal point you are immediately drawn to. Brilliant in both form and function, Mr Oma has created the ultimate residence â–

Relaxed lifestyle just minutes from beach Look no further than Perry Lakes in Floreat, developers tell CARMELLE WILKINSON BUYERS wanting a relaxed lifestyle just minutes from the beach and the shopping and dining precincts of Claremont and Subiaco should look no further than Perry Lakes in Floreat. Strong interest has sparked the final release of LandCorp’s Stage 1 development. LandCorp general manager metropolitan Luke Willcock said the nine home sites overlooked public space and tranquil wetlands and were priced from $650,000. “Residents can take advantage of an easy-going lifestyle the estate delivers with its rich, historic past and prestigious location integrated seamlessly into the natural surrounds of Perry Lakes Reserve just 10 minutes from Perth’s CBD,” he said. “These will be the last Perry Lakes lots coming to the market for some time with only a limited number of single residential lots being available
later this year following completion of Stage 2 civil works and demolition of the grandstand.” Mr Willcock said Perry Lakes’ sales performance has been outstanding with 22 of the 29 lots in the estate sold to date. “Due to this outstanding result, we have brought the final Stage 1 release forward,’’ he said. Award winning builder Webb and BrownNeaves purchased a lot to enable the company to offer a contemporary designed residential home at this highly sought after location. Founding company director Garry BrownNeaves said securing a homesite to build on at LandCorp’s Perry Lakes estate meant WBN could bring a distinctive home to the market. “It is in an attractive, established suburb just five minutes from the beach, and five minutes from Claremont and Subiaco and the strong demand already demonstrated shows there is a market for this level of quality,” Mr BrownNeaves said. For more information visit perrylakes.com.au, call 1300 730 435 or email perrylakes@land corp.com.au. ■
At Perry Lakes we have a history of raising the bar. Last opportunity to buy in Stage 1. When the 7th British Empire and Commonwealth Games came to Perth in 1962, Perry Lakes was chosen to play host to some of the world’s best athletes as they strived for gold. Now this iconic location is prepared for a new era of prestige. Remaining Stage 1 lots range from 302sqm to 529sqm and are priced from $650,000. A short sprint to the beach and likewise to the city, your next home is close to schools, shops and natural parklands. This is your opportunity to live among the legends at Perry Lakes.

No expense spared in this modern masterpiece Lifestyle, luxury and location in one package. By COURTNEY NOTTE TIMELESSNESS and elegance were essential factors in the design process of this tri-level home that combines raw, natural materials with futuristic design principles and modern technology. No expense was spared in the construction of the house. It leaves nothing to be desired, and ticks the lifestyle, luxury and location boxes. The coastal landscape and interior decor complement each
other perfectly, and the position capitalises on the ocean views. Greenery such as mature, fragrant frangipani trees offset the feature stone panels of the imposing facade. The sense of flow between the garden and the foyer is achieved with jarrah floorboards and shadow line ceilings, both of which extend throughout. An open timber tread staircase with a stainless steel balustrade connects the levels. Regardless of the number of occupants, space will never be an issue in this house, with several separate living areas over the three levels and a study. The layout is such that each level is virtually self-
contained. A water feature in the foyer greets you on the ground floor, which is an ideal, independent living space for guests or teenagers. This space is infused with natural light, thanks to a glass void on the first floor. The level also comprises a theatre room with a screen and projector, a study, a double-sized bedroom with floor-to-ceiling, built-in robes, a bathroom with stone benches. The middle floor is arguably the architectural masterpiece of the house, with its streamlined, wellequipped kitchen, stone benchtops, white cabinets, appliances and walkin pantry. Revel in the wall of glass
opposite that embraces expansive ocean views.There is also a separate dining room with a boxed ceiling and a huge family room.

Luxury living taken to the next level Endless ocean views, rare luxuries and a clever design are just some of the outstanding features, writes COURTNEY NOTTE WITH 754sq m of living space, this residence incorporates rare luxuries, such as a sports lounge and bar, to transcend traditional ideas of quality living and typify a new style of modern luxury. The sprawling tri-level property is more like a self-contained resort than a luxury beach house, offering rare quality and style. Seemingly endless water views from almost every room are just one example of its rare sophistication and panache. Its clever design maximises living space on the 842sq m block, but room has been spared at the back for two double garages, and a cedar-lined outdoor dining area overlooking a pool. The pool was purpose built to capture ocean views from the back yard. Each of the five double-sized bedrooms has its own bathroom and is convenient to one of four separate living areas in the house. Features such as a six-person lift to each level, dumbwaiter and laundry chute make it clear that convenience is a priority. The lift is next to the open timber staircase in the entrance foyer.
Four bedrooms and four bathrooms are on the first floor, along with the study and an entertaining room. Top-of-the-range appliances, waterfall-style stone bench tops and a walk-in pantry are highlights of the streamlined kitchen. It also has a dumbwaiter that serves the outdoor area. It overlooks the living and dining rooms, which in turn have ocean views to the west and a view over the pool. Starfield lighting adds ambience to this area, where bifold doors open to the cedar-lined balcony and a glass wall highlights the view from Hillarys to Fremantle. The master bedroom, and connecting dressing room and ensuite are also on this level. A huge window along the north side of the house maximises natural light and ventilation. There is also a large theatre room. The house has blackbutt timber flooring and extra-high feature ceilings throughout, ducted reverse cycle airconditioning, smart wiring and C-Bus controllers throughout, wine cellar, ducted vacuuming, security system with four cameras, reticulated lawn and gardens, and three instant hot water systems. ■

Trendy, tranquil, timeless and tempting Extensive renovations and beautiful grounds make for quality, reports JANE EVANS STYLISH yet understated, central yet tranquil and modern yet timeless is 20 Melville Street to a tee. The Claremont home is tucked away behind a high wall, with a timber decked walkway and fish pond creating an inviting entry. The owners carried out fairly extensive renovations when they bought the home four years ago, starting with a coat of white paint on everything. Leafy garden views from every room compliment the free flowing, light filled interior. The front doors open into an expansive living room with a striking two-metre long aquarium built into the wall, equally as suited to cosy nights in front of the television as it is to an intimate cocktail party. The kitchen has been modernised with sleek stainless steel appliances and bench tops overlooking the beautiful rear alfresco area. “It’s a great cook’s kitchen,” said one of the
owners. “It was a bit cluttered before so we streamlined it and made everything accessible.” A versatile scullery/laundry is adjacent. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom, all in keeping with the cool, pared back style of the rest of the home. European fittings have been used in the kitchen and bathroom, ensuring no compromise on quality. Polished timber floorboards, high ceilings and extensive glass throughout create a feeling of spaciousness in this compact home. Vast and beautifully kept grounds surround the exterior with both lawn and paved alfresco areas.
Enjoy reflecting on your day over a glass of wine in the private sanctuary of your own garden, one of the advantages over apartment and villa living.
The convenience of Claremont Quarter, transport, schools and restaurants further enhances the luxurious residence. ■
