It’s Springtime – Time to buy. Time to build.

Traditionally, September through until November is the selling season for Real Estate in Victoria. Better weather, spring growth and florals. It’s great for inspections and auctions. It’s also the perfect time to commence your building project. Longer days with more sunshine – it’s perfect. This year is just a little bit different. But it looks like we may be on schedule for ‘early release’ from the more onerous elements of the Covid 19 Lockdown.

This year there will be a flood of properties likely up for sale. It should be a buyers’ market. In Bayside areas and on the Mornington Peninsula there is likely to be a surfeit of properties for sale.

If you’re looking for your dream home, your forever home, it will be an opportune time to build it from ‘scratch’. No need to settle for second best – buy well – perhaps an older 3 bedroom weatherboard or brick veneer, knock it down and then take command of the superior block size in older areas from South Frankston to Parkdale, or in former holiday home locations from Mornington to Tootgarook, Hastings to Flinders.

Choose wisely. Without too much trouble you can be situated with 10 minutes of the beach. With good shopping amenities, schools and facilities, it really is a no-brainer. 60-120 squares of comfort. luxury and sustainable living compared to a boxy 3 bedroom ‘50s, ‘60s or ‘70s formula build, with limited potential for any renovation.

The same principles apply in Melbourne’s outer Eastern Suburbs. With proximity to the Yarra Valley and the Dandenong Ranges, the east offers similar fantastic opportunities for those desiring to build their ‘dream’ home.

Think about it. Modern spacious and well-lit with splendid natural light. Solar power and storage can virtually put you ‘off the grid’ and free up your energy bills. Climate Control, Water reticulation for pools, spas and WCs. Data control of media applications, appliances, sliding or bifold doors; panoramic feature windows, indoor outdoor living and entertainment areas. Modern internal kitchens with breakfast bars and fully operational outdoor kitchen and barbecues – with a kitchen garden for herbs and greens. Big spacious bathrooms fully tiled, floor to ceiling glass, modern ceramics and fittings. Car stacker? No problem, why not? Why not bring the future – your future – into the now for you and your children? Or just for you in those later years after retirement.

It’s your choice, but to make it a reality you require a competent builder with agility and flexibility, not weighed down by formula plans that allow for few modifications.

Modern Builders, Modern Living – Love it.

Lifestyle, Location and Living. Build with SLR Concepts. The Future is Now.

After spending so much time at home, often with young families, many people looking to build are genuinely considering lifestyle and location in a different light. Not only that, there is a strong desire to ensure space, light and access to amenities. Being beachside or in a green location seems so much more attractive now for both the homeowners and their children.

In Sydney, the Government has decreed that in new estates each yard must have an 8m tree in the rear yard and a 6m tree in the front yard. Over 20 years the plan envisages a major tree canopy to cover most of south-west and south-east Sydney.

That’s fine if you wish to wait 20 years and live in Sydney, however for many of us, we want that canopy now. South East Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula offer this option now if you select your property carefully.

The same is true of Eastern and Inner Eastern Melbourne – areas such as Ivanhoe, Eaglemont, Balwyn and Templestowe, as well as Ringwood, Mitcham and Blackburn.

Access to beachside living is now very desirable and very possible. In older areas such as Seaford, Edithvale and Bon Beach, the housing stock has often frequently reached its ‘use by’ date. Weatherboard or Brick Veneer – 3 bedroom, one bathroom, on large blocks. It’s the perfect formula for a rebuild. Demolish the older dwelling and build the home you desire.

Use the space wisely and you can build a magnificent family home. Not a formula build but rather a custom designed home that suits you and your family’s needs. Room to move with access to parklands, beaches and sporting facilities. Schools, shopping and transport – via car and the new Peninsula Bypass / Eastlink roadways, or via fast rail links.

The major consideration is your new home. SLR Concepts will create an open spacious home filled with natural light. It will be a sustainable home with solar power, battery storage, water reticulation and data connections. Open plan kitchens and living areas that merge with outdoor entertainment areas, pools, spas and yard space for children.

It’s time to change. Build for your future – with SLR Concepts

With the end of restriction 4 potentially looming at the end of September, there is a marked movement of people looking to change their current lifestyle and living situations. Whether it’s a move to a semi-rural retreat in outer Melbourne or beachside on the Mornington Peninsula, many people are seeking a different lifestyle. “Treechange” or “Seachange” – it’s about real quality of life.

Now is the time to refresh and renew with Spring now well upon us. Travel times with the newer freeways to the Peninsula and to the outer East via Eastlink offer greater freedom to those willing to commute distances for work and home. Whether it’s the cool green amongst the riverside gum trees or the gentle sound of the ocean – for families it’s definitely more attractive than the sound of trucks, trams and trains. Why not do it in real comfort and build with SLR Concepts?

Property values are relatively stable, so whether you decide to embark upon a completely new build or take an existing property and renovate and restyle it to suit your purposes, it makes sense to do so now.

SLR Concepts Building and Construction are innovative and clever builders. They are open to custom designing the home you desire or working with your selected Architect.

Take a different approach to building. Start with what you want. What are your non-negotiables? Solar power with battery storage? Full water reticulation, open spacious living areas, media and appliance data connections, climate control, panoramic views. It’s all possible. When it’s not a formula build these items are not merely ‘concessions’ granted to a ‘demanding’ homeowner. These are standard requirements comfortably included as essentials by the team from SLR Concepts. This will be a home for living, a home to revel in and to enjoy.

Modern Engineering, structural integrity that doesn’t rely on internal walls, superior foundations and modular components deliver light, space and real comfort.

Powerlines and streets full of parked cars or a smooth uninterrupted view of the ocean? The sound of Kookaburras in the morning or the waste management truck doing its rounds? Which would you prefer? Kids riding their bikes to school every day or being ferried to and from school for their primary safety? It’s a choice worth considering.
