Townhouse Developments in Melbourne
February 15, 2024
Melbourne’s vibrant and diverse real estate landscape is experiencing a fascinating turn. The allure of townhouse living in Melbourne is steadily increasing, driven by an array of enticing features like greater affordability, sustainable practices, modern designs, and a balanced lifestyle.
Individuals, couples and families of all shapes and sizes are haggling over countless new townhouses popping up across Melbourne and wider Victoria for their compact efficiency, innovative designs, and a closer sense of community.
AVID’s Carolina community located in Deanside, for example, is offering new townhouse developments for those looking to get on board with this rising trend. Whether you’re in need of a place to raise your children, are a young professional searching for an affordable base in a wonderful new suburb, or are a downsizer ready to take advantage of a smaller property sat near a range of amenities, you will find it in Carolina.
But what is behind such popularity of this particular housing option? Let’s explore this growing trend for new townhouses for sale in Melbourne in more detail.
The Rise of Townhouse Living in Melbourne
Recent years have shown a distinct shift in broader property purchases across Melbourne and greater Victoria’s real estate market. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, there has been a 26% increase in townhouse approvals over the figures of previous years. In fact, of the private dwellings counted in the 2021 Census, 13% were townhouses. And that figure is projected to have increased moving through 2023.
The question is – why?
Well, Melbourne is one of the many areas across Australia experiencing a surge in population. With such a diverse influx of new residents, they each want a variety of choices on where to live. As inner-city locations often impose more restrictions on new builds, middle and outer regions are becoming increasingly popular with new townhouse developments.
The move reflects preferences among young professionals, downsizers, and families. The economic advantage, innovative design, and efficiency of off-the-plan townhouse options are enticing. Moreover, new townhomes in Melbourne have become synonymous with contemporary urban living. Developers are creating spaces that not only embrace environmental considerations but also support a diverse range of lifestyle needs.
Let’s not overlook the rising property costs for standalone houses. New townhouses for sale in Melbourne’s fresh and growing suburbs have therefore become an affordable option for homeownership.
Why Choose a Townhouse? Advantages and Features
New townhomes in Melbourne align perfectly with our contemporary lifestyles, offering:
- Less Ongoing Maintenance: By their design, a townhouse off-the-plan will be more compact than standalone houses, requiring less work to maintain gardens, facades, paintwork, and so on. They do, however, still provide outdoor areas and more space than other options, such as apartments.
- The Amenities: Often situated in master-planned communities, townhomes are conveniently located near essential amenities like parks, transport links, schools, and shopping options. For example, our new townhouse developments in Carolina, Deanside, are generally park-fronted, have easy access to the city via the Western Freeway, as well as a short, five-minute drive to the Watervale Shopping Centre.
- Value for Money: Given their smaller size and associated construction materials, new townhouses for sale often offer greater affordability compared to standalone homes.
- Extra Privacy: A modern, off-the-plan townhouse in Melbourne, including those at Carolina, prioritises privacy.
The architectural design of new townhomes in Victoria meets diverse needs, catering to families, young professionals, downsizers, and individuals seeking sustainable and efficient living solutions. The community-centric approach, without sacrificing the sense of individuality, positions these properties as a compelling option.
