A collection of 54 terrace homes, dubbed the Dawn Edition, have hit the market.

The $30 million development, a collaboration between Villawood Properties and Azure Development, is part of the wider $500 million community The Surrounds.

The three and four bedroom terraces will each have two bathrooms, two car spaces and their own private courtyards.

The terraces start from $499,900. There are four floorplans on offer, ranging in size from 171 to 301 sqm.

Residents of the gated community will have access to 23 hectares of open spaces and parks designed for outdoor play, sports, and time with the family.

The terraces are located right near the $4 million leisure centre which has a heated lap pool, a fully equipped gym, private multi-purpose room, change facilities and a cafe.

Azure Development director Trent Keirnan said they have designed each terrace to be built for life, from their minimalistic exteriors to stylish entryways and spacious interiors.

Villawood Properties state development manager Michael Williams said the convenient location, appealing designs and affordable pricing of the terrace homes would appeal to a range of buyers looking to get their foot on the Gold Coast property ladder.

“Every one of these homes has been designed from the ground up with the modern buyer in mind,” Mr Williams said.

“They are high-quality and low maintenance, which makes them ideal for a range of buyers including busy families, young couples and retirees.

“The terraces further compliment the unique offering we have here at The Surrounds and are an ideal solution for buyers either looking to upsize from an apartment or downsize from a big home.”

The project is located within five minutes’ walk to the Westfield Helensvale and Helensvale Train Station with easy access to the Northern Gold Coast beaches via the pacific Motorway.

GUEST OBSERVER
Robust demand for terraces and townhouses across Frasers Property Australias Sydney communities backs up calls made by NSW Planning Minister Rob Stokes for more medium density housing in established suburbs to meet surging population growth. 
Forecasts released yesterday by the NSW Department of Planning &amp; Environment show Sydneys population is expected to jump by over 2.1 million in the next 20 years. 
Sydney requires 726,000 new dwellings by 2036 and the Minister identified medium density and terrace housing in established parts of the city as the key to meeting this demand. 
Demand for the traditional Sydney terrace design has grown, and Frasers Property has found a ready market for its entire stock of more than 200 terrace-style homes in the past year. 
Its a product type Frasers Property has a lot of experience with. Over the past decade Frasers Property has delivered 1300 terrace-style homes throughout metropolitan Sydney. 
Its clear that demand is there for terrace home product but the challenge is land availability and zoning. Projections of sharp population growth have resulted in many of Sydneys established suburban markets particularly the middle ring being zoned with a bias to high density apartments,said Mr Edgar. 
In principle this seems a reasonable solution. However, strong terrace and townhome sales in our communities suggest that there is a big appetite for medium density product in the middle ring suburbs, and planning conditions that enable medium density housing would be welcomed by the market. 
Existing planning conditions in many middle ring suburbs exclude townhouses and terraces because of minimum lot size requirements. 
Socially and economically sustainable community design arises from a well-balanced mix of medium and high density housing, and there is demand for both.
Great design cant be compromised when creating a variety of housing types that will have enduring relevance for current and future generations. 
When we launched a range of new townhome and terrace designs at Fairwater in Blacktown in 2014 we had more than 3,700 registrations of interest before we started selling. Every stage since has sold strongly.

We are finding customers are drawn to the charm and character of the terrace style home so we re-imagined the more traditional terrace design to cater for the modern urban lifestyle, with indoor and outdoor living spaces and greater natural light.
Frasers Property recently released 29 new homes at Fairwater including a number of terraces and townhomes starting from $668,000. 
Tailors Walk in Botany is another case in point, where the re-imagined three and four level contemporary terraces are helping to maintain the character and charm of one of Sydneys most historic areas and proving extremely popular among young families and investors.
Creating a compelling terrace and townhome offering means designing to reflect the surrounding environment and recognising that variety is important, not just to buyers but also in terms of maintaining an attractive and functional streetscape. 
At The Gallery at Botanica, for instance, Frasers Property is turning the historic Lidcombe Hospital site into a superb medium density development through beautifully restoring a number of unique heritage residences from the late 19th and early 20th century into one, two, three and four bedroom residences. There also will be a limited number of newly built homes. 
The historic Lidcombe Hospital site benefits from a unique heritage environment, creating the opportunity and the need to design a variety of housing types that capitalise on the historic setting and satisfy demand for larger properties from growing and extended families.
To meet the expected population surge in Sydney, Minister Stokes also called for a design shift to bigger apartments and again, its a product in which Frasers Property has noticed a big increase in demand. 
Were receiving significant interest in the three bedroom apartments in our communities as buyers increasingly respond to the relative affordability of larger apartments while not wanting to compromise on good design.
For example, at Centrale in North Ryde, with its close promixity to the on-site train station and a plethora of amenities, the three bedroom apartments are proving very popular.

Terraces and townhomes depend on design

Jockey Brenton Avdulla has sold his Zetland home, just weeks off being crowned Sydney racing’s premiership rider.
He’s secured $2.01 million for the inner-city terrace that cost him $1.85 million two years ago. Avdulla has an eye on moving closer to the coast.
His four-bedroom Zetland home was among a handful of terraces in the award-winning ARC development designed by Tonkin Zulaikha Greer in 2003.
Spanning three levels with a split level design, it has a gourmet open-plan kitchen and separate living spaces which flow to front and rear courtyards.
Avdulla has renovated the rear level garden with a brand-new decking.
Joe Recep and Martin Farah at NG Farah Coogee sold the property for the 27-year-old jockey who is enjoying his career-best season.
The Melbourne-born jockey, who won the Golden Slipper on Estijaab in March, has earned over $11 million in prizemoney for owners this season. Avdulla still owns a one-bedroom unit in Kensington, a short stroll from Royal Randwick, and bought a four-bedroom terrace off the plan in an upcoming Silkari development in Pagewood.
He was on one winner at Rosehill on the weekend where he moved a step closer to the premiership title, having ridden his 81st city winner and 151st on all tracks this season, including Sparkly Star midweek. After bettering last season’s 79 wins, Avdulla thanked his manager Mark Van Triet.
"Great thrill to be able to set a goal and reach it with still 6 weeks left of the season," he tweeted along with a video of the win on Sparkly Star.
"First time I have broke the 150 win barrier and also riding my 80th metro winner in NSW breaking last years previous best of 79.
"Thanks to my manager for putting in the hard yards."

During his final year of his architecture degree in the late 1980s, Ian Moore was commissioned to work on a Darlinghurst terrace.
The terrace had been a burnt out squatters den with Moore remembering climbing over people sleeping on mattresses in the graffiti covered rooms.
His reconfiguration of the terrace into two separate spaces took four years.
Its exposed rear steel-framed wing with spiral staircase has become an architectural landmark, built in stark contrast to the street facade which was restored to its original Victorian detail.
Davis House featured in 100 Amazing Sydney Homes.
The Surrey Street property is now for sale as a large family home offering with four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a three car garage.
1st City Real Estate Double Bay agent Julian Hasemer calls the home a "triumph of design in a fashionable urban village setting."
