Villa World : reaches new heights at Rochedale

NATIONAL residential developer Villa World has experienced a swift run of sales in the latest stage of its flagship Rochedale Grand community on Brisbane's southside.

Discerning buyers with an appetite for a premium modern lifestyle have already swooped on almost 50 per cent of the release in just two weeks.

Boasting the highest aspect of the 167-home tree-lined development, the latest stage offers buyers the opportunity to capture the best city views available at Rochedale Grand.

Villa World Development Manager Gary Hunter said purchasers had been quick to act on the highly anticipated new release with 14 of its 20 contemporary homes already snapped up.

'We had many prospective buyers who had registered their interest with us well ahead of the release,' Mr Hunter said.

'That anticipation is certainly reflected in the rate of sales since these homes hit the market.

'It's an outstanding response and we're thrilled that Rochedale Grand is achieving such strong market traction.'

Mr Hunter said most of the buyers were owner-occupiers from surrounding suburbs such as Sunnybank, Sunnybank Hills and Eight Mile Plains.

He said the buyers were a mix of young professionals buying their first homes and families wanting to upsize.

'They're trading their circa 1970s and 1980s homes for a contemporary and spacious residence that doesn't have the maintenance issues of a long-established house,' he said.

'They love the ease of access to major roads such as the M1 and Gateway Motorway and the fact that Brisbane's extensive public transport network is within walking distance.

'Many also want to live close to Redeemer Lutheran College for their children's education.'

The latest release of Rochedale Grand offers a collection of architect-designed, two-level homes with four bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, designer kitchen with 900mm stainless steel appliances and ducted air conditioning throughout.

The homes will rise on lots ranging from 313sqm to 541sqm, with the larger parcels enabling enhanced design features such as larger master bedrooms and additional living area.

Remaining land for sale in the latest release is priced from $365,000 with house and land packages available from $712,500.

This release follows the success of the community's first three stages, where just eight homes remain for sale.

The Rochedale Grand display home and sales centre is located on 33 Beechmont Street, Rochedale.
