Is your city leading Australia's home price growth
First home buyers will have a rare chance to secure an entry-level home in one of Brisbane’s growing beachside suburbs
Orchard Property group has announced sales for stage one of Fairwind Victoria Point: a masterplanned residential community
expected to provide 61 home sites over the next year for people who want to enter the property market
With the land development expected to sell in four stages
stage one will be selling 14 lots ranging from 380 to 649 sqm in size
Fairwind Victoria Point development from Orchard Property Group
expected to produce more than 60 home sites for potential first home buyers
Orchard Property Group CEO Ted Cronin said the new development has already received strong demand
representing a foothold in a popular and expanding region
“Victoria Point is a very established area,” he said
“Instead of being in one of those up and coming urban sprawl areas
this one already has the amenities in place
you already have [retail] and transport networks – all the shopping centres are already there.”
Fairwind Victoria Point has access to several of Redland City’s coastal attractions
and is a short distance from the nature of the Point Halloran Conservation Area
“Fairwind represents an exceptional opportunity for purchasers seeking a bayside lifestyle with the convenience of an established urban setting,” Mr Cronin said
and offers lots from 380 to 649 sqm in size
Prices begin at $570,000 for a 380 sqm lot
$605,000 will get you a 649 sqm property wrapped behind other houses in the neighbourhood
and the most expensive package is a 405 sqm lot for $615,000
Ready-made charity home up for auction at no reserve price
Mr Cronin said stage 1 was the most affordable option at the site for first home buyers
as prices on lots may increases as Orchard Property Group moves forward with the remaining stages
He added while the development was “definitely targeted towards the owner-occupier market” such as first and second-home buyers
more builders had been expressing interested in buying land to build on and sell as complete packages
”Victoria Point is a very established area … instead of being in one of those up and coming urban sprawl areas
this one already has the amenities in place.”
builders are buying land off the developers and they’re doing ‘spec homes’.” he said
“It’s a stronger part of the market than it was two years ago … they’re a competing interest
Homes built on the land will be required to meet certain design guidelines for the community
keeping consistency between housings regarding facades
Stage one’s lots will be available to build on in July
with construction on the entire development estimated to conclude in mid-2026
