THE cooler weather could provide a ray of hopefor astute property sellers.

According to Peard Real Estate Group CEOPeter Peard, winter provides a window of opportu-nity for those wanting to sell their home.

“There tends to be less competition from otherhomeowners who generally waituntil Spring to sell their property,’’he said.

“This is particularly the case incoastal areas with Peard generallyrecording a jump of over 20 percent in listings beginning fromOctober in oceanside suburbssuch as Mindarie, Illuka, Hillarys,Sorrento and further south inRockingham and Mandurah.

“Another advantage is thatpotential buyers who are active inthe housing market during wintertend to be more committed andfocused on purchasing a newhome.”

Before putting their home on the market in win-ter, sellers needed to make sure their home wasattractive to potential buyers.

“Make sure your gardens are well presentedduring the winter months because the streetappeal of the property is generally a big sellingpoint for a home,’’ he said.

“It is a good investment to fertilise your lawnsregularly to keep them green and strategically plac-ing plants in the garden which bloom during thewinter months.

“It is also proven that people react morefavourably to property shown under bright light

than dark, so sellers should max-imise the light entering the home,such as having home opens aroundlunch time and opening all drapesand blinds and turning on lights.”

Mr Peard said your homeshould be also be warm and invit-ing.

“If you have heating in yourhome make sure that it is workingduring home opens and the airtemperature in the home is at acomfortable level,’’ he said.

“If you have natural fires, con-sider operating them during thehome open to give your home

added atmosphere.“It is also worth investing in floral arrangements

to enhance the atmosphere of the home during thewinter months.”

Mr Peard advised taking a flexible approach tohome inspections, as attendance during weekendhome open times could sometimes be low due tobad weather. ■

Million-dollar sales ‘growing’Hope for sellers in winterExpert advises to present gardens well. By CARMELLE WILKINSON

DESPITE a sluggish real estatemarket, over 140 suburbs in Perthhad million-dollar property salesfor the year ending March 2011.

The latest figures from REIWAshow 142 suburbs recorded indi-vidual property sales of at least$1million during this 12-monthperiod, including northern suburbslike Mindarie, Iluka, Duncraig,Hillarys, Marmion, Mullaloo andSorrento.

According to Acton Real Estatechief executive Graeme Baxter, thenumber of suburbs with million-dollar property sales had remainedstable over the last two years withsome 137 Perth suburbs recordingmillion-dollar property sales duringthe year ending the March 2010quarter.

“Overall, million-dollar propertysales now account for nearly 9 percent of all house sales in Perthwhich is a very positive result tak-ing into account the impact of ris-ing interest rates over the lastyear,’’ he said.

“One of the most significanttrends in the million-dollar Perthproperty market is the growing

number of property sales in

lifestyle markets which are not usu-

ally associated with the prime

riverside suburbs of Perth.”

Million-dollar sales were record-

ed in Kardinya, Bull Creek, Palmyra,

Beeliar, Jandakot and Munster in

the south and in the Hills in Dar-

lington, Gooseberry Hill, Kalamun-

da, Lesmurdie and Wattle Grove.

“In recognition of these growing

number of million-dollar property

sales in regional areas of Perth,

Acton has strategically opened sev-

eral new offices in selected areas

over the past year to provide a

broader number of property sell-

ers with our premium level of serv-

ices,’’ he said.

These new offices include Acton

Hills and Acton Southern Suburbs.

“Acton plans to open additional

new offices in selected regions in

Perth over the coming year to help

service other niche markets in the

Perth premium property market,”

Mr Baxter said.■

Form meets function

PROLIFIC use of ultra-modernmaterials such as stainless steel, slateand stone in this house achieves tex-tural depth and interest, and is astandout feature of its architecturalmerit.

Despite the many and variedmixed materials, from the prominentuse of timber in the kitchen andalfresco area to the expansive use ofglass throughout, the aestheticemphasis is on minimalism and sleek,streamlined decor.

Not satisfied with simply out-standing form, collaboration betweenarchitect, builder and owner hasensured the home does not fall shortas far as function is concerned.

Its double-storey design andclever, compact features inside max-imise space on the 365sq m block,and floor-to-ceiling energy efficientglass maximises natural light andcross ventilation, reducing the needfor artificial heating and cooling.

The use of louvered glass panels inthe living areas seems even smarterwhen you consider the position ofthe home on Mindarie’s coastal strip,and how effective the vented win-dows are at capturing the oceanbreeze.

Behind a limestone privacy fence,the facade offers a taste of what is tocome, with stone cladding, timber-lined ceilings, stainless steel balconybalustrades and many large windows.

Spacious free flowing living areas

dominate the ground floor. Highshadowline ceilings in the familyroom and kitchen enhance thealready overwhelming sense ofspace, while several sets of stackingglass doors open right up to inte-grate the rooms with a big balconyon one side of the house and a pri-vate decked courtyard on the other.

The impressive kitchen features aseashell stone waterfall effect bench,stainless steel Miele appliances suchas a coffee machine and canopyrangehood, and timber-look cup-boards and matching integrated dish-washer.

An open timber-tread staircaserests against one wall in the diningroom, with a double height ceilingvoid to the first floor mezzanine anda wall of windows overlooking thecourtyard.

The master bedroom has a dress-ing room and open ensuite with aspa, floating double vanity unit andshower recess with glass pivot door.

Bedrooms two and three havewalk-in robes and connect to privateensuites.

There is also a theatre room,upstairs living area with a balconylooking out to the ocean and sanddunes, and study area with ventedwindows.

Extras include a gas log fire, black-butt timber and travertine flooringthroughout, and a large alfresco areawith feature stainless steel pillars. ■

“Our ability to customise exten-sively to suit the client’s needs givesus a point of difference,” Dina said.

“Most of our furniture is sprungbased, offering superior comfort

levels.“The client can visit ourmanufacturing facility giv-ing them insight into thequality of their product.”

Yogesh, who has adiploma in furnituredesign and technologyfrom London College of

Furniture, has more than33 years’ experience in the

furniture industry and said hegets his motivation from seeing

clients’ satisfaction with their fin-ished furniture.

Dina, on the other hand, has adiploma in interior design from theUK and has been a fabric buyer for20 years, mainly selecting fabricsfrom the UK.

“Seeing a finished piece of furni-ture in different fabrics and how indi-vidual it turns out with the correctfabric choice keeps on inspiring us,’’she said.

Utilising the very best of materials,from West Australian hardwood andspring bases to superior foam andwebbing,Torrance + McKenna pridethemselves on quality furniture.

When you like something, youshould stick with it, and that is oftenhow people feel about the furnitureand sofas at Torrance + McKennasofa.

They are made to give lasting com-

fort, so it is reassuring to know it canbe reupholstered during a redecora-tion project, or simply to give it anew leaseof life inthe future.

Theirextensivefabric andleathergallery fea-tures over3000 qual-ity fabricsandleatherssourcedfrom thefinest mills around the word for youto choose from.

“A well-designed piece of furni-

ture can help transform a room,’’Dina said.
