Biggest apartments in Perth hit the market

Perth has long had a problem with the size of apartments for downsizers.

That's the view of Abel Property sales agent Gethen Sullivan, who's been marketing off the plan and established apartments for the best part of two decades in Perth.

"The overwhelming feedback from apartment buyers is that the internal size, and specifically the master bedrooms, are always too small," Sullivan suggests.

"This is the case for the majority of developments in Perth."

Sullivan has recently started marketing apartments at 66 Jersey Street, a boutique Jolimont development near Subiaco, where the floor plates are around 50 per cent larger than any other two and three bedroom apartments on the market in Perth.

"For me, after I studied the floor plans and strata plan for this project, it is something that I couldn’t wait to be involved in selling," Sullivan says.

Designed by SPH Architects, the two bedroom apartments span 146 sqm and start from $755,000. The master bedroom is spread across 23 sqm alone.

The three bedroom apartments, which offer over 265 sqm, start from $1,375,000. They have a 30 sqm master suite.

Sullivan says the apartments are 100 per cent geared toward owner-occupiers.

"They are largely aimed at people looking to downsize from a house to the security of an apartment, without sacrificing space," Sullivan says.

"The developers of this project themselves are architects. They designed the floor plans to be something they themselves could/would live in."

The local construction firm Kastle are set to start the build later this year, with completion slated for Q3 2022.
