Awaken, Brighton - 30-32 Rooding Street, Brighton

The luxury Awaken apartment project in Melbourne&#39;s Brighton has shown its class as one of the best new projects in the exclusive Bayside suburb.

Developed by the Skelton and designed by Melbourne architect Travis Walton, Awaken pushes the envelope for quality and finessed detail. Built by Brompton Construction, this is the second Bayside success by this development team.

Penthouse 201, part of the boutique 13-residence Awaken, sold in June for an undisclosed price, but it&#39;s believed to be in the mid&nbsp;$3&nbsp;millions.

Developer Michael Skelton said there haven&rsquo;t been many sales in the upper end of the Brighton market in recent times, particularly while still at the off-the-plan stage and not yet complete.

&quot;This penthouse sale represents one of the best of​f-the-plan Brighton apartment sales in recent times,&quot; Skelton says.

&quot;It&#39;s really a testament to&nbsp;the detailed design and quality being delivered here,&quot; Skelton adds, as the wraps and scaffolding starts to come down from the striking Rooding Street project.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177703]

It was an owner-occupier who secured Penthouse 201. They were looking for a city pad that featured strong architectural styling and a quality design delivered beyond expectations.

&quot;The couple initially enquired around two months ago when we had a virtual display for Awaken,&rdquo; Skelton said. He added however the clincher was when they came and inspected the apartment again, when the feature brickwork and dark electro-bronze detail were all but finished.

&quot;They were able to see how the building had come together, and the end product surpassed well beyond their expectations,&quot;&nbsp;Skelton adds.

&quot;We took the buyers on a tour of the building while under construction, with the apartment just at a shell stage. They could vision how it was going to look and what it would be like living there, with the bay and city views that the third-level delivers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=143715]

&ldquo;The choice came down to not &lsquo;if an Awaken penthouse was right&rsquo;, but which one to choose,&quot; Skelton says.

Penthouse 202, quietly positioned at the rear of the development, with city and bay views, is still up for grabs.

Each of the half-floor penthouses are very different, Skelton says.

&quot;They&#39;re not just a replicated floor plan front to back. Penthouse 202 has dedicated space for dining, with the kitchen and living area spanning the full width of the building. Beams of light from the eight skylights illuminate the penthouse throughout the day while the expansive balcony offers brightly lit city views at night.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177708]

&quot;The entry to Penthouse 202 is designed as an intentional statement on arrival, with a large skylight shining light into the entry which would lend itself to some feature art or a sculpture.

The second and third bedrooms are located in a separate wing of the penthouse, set on the other side of the living space and away from the master wing.

Both penthouses feature an exceptionally large integrated marble fireplace, as well as featured kitchen&nbsp;island benches with waterfall stone edges.

Projects by Buxton agent Heath Thompson is marketing the remaining penthouse with a $3.45 million asking price.

There are just a few other apartments remaining, one three-bedroom apartment on the ground floor with an&nbsp;expansive private courtyard garden, as well as another three-bed apartment on the first level.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177705]

Skelton said there are a number of buyers ready to come and inspect the remaining apartments now that the scaffolding has come down. Buyers will now be able to see the entire project, particularly the European-style brickwork and contrasting electro-bronze metal detailing, in all its detail.

Every buyer so far at Awaken has been an owner-occupier, a mix between empty nesters and families with grown up kids. Purchasers are still working with Skelton on final custom packages for their apartments ahead of the Spring completion and move in date.

Architecture firm Travis Walton&#39;s&nbsp;brief for Awaken was to take&nbsp;a contemporary and restrained approach to bayside luxury living with architectural details and landscaping, synonymous with a project by Skelton Group.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177706]

The refined architectural composition draws focus to the layered and extensive landscape, combining natives and evergreen plants to create softness and seasonal change.

Awaken&#39;s unique positioning in a quiet, blue-stoned edged, laneway-style street in Brighton combines quality architecture, interiors and landscaping to deliver one of the most high-end offerings in Brighton.

Those seeking either a sea change or a lifestyle change have been popular with the new Brighton apartment project, Awaken, currently being created by the luxury developer Skelton Group.

Projects by Buxton Director,&nbsp;Heath Thompson, who is handling the sales, said the majority of buyers so far have come from outside the local area.

&ldquo;A lot of buyers are looking for a sea-change or a lifestyle-change, coming from outer suburbs and away from the bay to a lifestyle where they can walk down to the beach or the local caf&eacute; or train station,&rdquo; he said, adding that one of the most recent buyers has come from Mansfield, in the foothills of the Victorian Alps.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=143715]

Thompson says Awaken, which is due for completion in spring this year,&nbsp;offers a more realistic entry to&nbsp;Brighton compared to other developments on the market.

&quot;A lot of Brighton has been saturated with big beautiful apartments, which come with a big price point, over $2.5 million plus,&quot; Thompson says.

&quot;Not everyone is selling a $5 million home and downsizing,&quot; Thompson adds, suggesting Awaken caters for a wider type of buyer.

The three-bedroom apartments in Awaken start from $1,395,000.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177708]

The&nbsp;luxury offering, now over 60 per cent sold,&nbsp;comprises just 13 three-bedroom apartments. It is located in a quiet&nbsp;area of Brighton at 30-32 Rooding Street, a laneway-style street just a short walk to the popular Bay Street&nbsp;and Martin Street activity centres.

Nearby is Brighton Beach and the famous Bay Trail, refined pubs, lively cafes, and boutique shopping experiences line the streets, offering the ideal blend of city amenities and beach-side lifestyle.

In collaboration with acclaimed Melbourne architect Travis Walton, Awaken takes a contemporary and restrained approach to bayside luxury living, with interiors taking on generous proportions and a palette of natural stone, aged metal and natural oak timber flooring.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=30087 project_image_fid=177706]

Michael Skelton, Founder and Managing Director at Skelton, said they wanted to replicate the success of their nearby Brighton East project, Avenue.

&quot;We brought the same exceptional, proven Bayside team to Awaken and the results speak for themselves&quot;,&nbsp;Skelton said.

Awaken has been landscaped by the well known landscape firm ACRE, who have combined&nbsp;natives, evergreen and flowering plants to deliver visual impact and create seasonal change that blends seamlessly with the suburb&rsquo;s landscape.
