South-East Queensland communities developer Azure has revealed its Saville by Azure project is close to completion with settlements slated for this month.
Azure is heavily focused on the townhouse market, recently winning approval for a 74-home, $60-million estate at Augustine Heights, 37km south-west of central Brisbane.
The $54-million Saville project at 153 Government Road, Richlands, is a collection of 90 two-storey terrace homes.
Residents of the gated community will have access to Azure Club amenities, a communal entertaining and dining pavilion, a resort-style swimming pool, and landscaped private gardens.
Azure director Trent Keirnan said the developer had delivered more than 560 terrace homes at Richlands, and the Saville project would add to this pipeline.
“Choosing a location like Government Road, we’re not just building homes; we’re offering a lifestyle that combines easy access to shopping, schools, and essential services with the peace and serenity of living in beautiful parkland,” Keirnan said.
Azure’s decision to develop Saville at Richlands follows six projects in the area, including Alton Edition, Eden Edition and Flora Edition.
“We’ve really listened to what buyers want and have designed Saville by Azure to reflect that,” Keirnan said.
“Richlands has been a fantastic location for us, and our success in the area speaks volumes about our commitment to quality and community.”
Richlands is close to an employment hub, local shopping centres, universities and about 20km south-west of Brisbane’s CBD.
According to Azure, rental prices will start at $675 a week.
Earlier this year Keirnan told The Urban Developer that there was “an insatiable level of demand” for townhouse products.
“People are running busier lives, and looking for lifestyle choices, integrated amenities and low maintenance,” Keirnan said.
“You can’t get it in a house and although you can get it in an apartment, it’s hard to bring a family up in an apartment.
“Think about affordability—if it is a blue-ribbon suburb, a lot of people might not be able to afford houses in that suburb but they could afford a quality townhouse.
“That gives them an opportunity to be close to family, friends, infrastructure and schooling which otherwise is not afforded to them.”
