Bells Reach is a completed Stockland residential community at Caloundra on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast providing highly innovative and affordable housing solutions. The community includes a central village hub, award-winning parks and playgrounds, unique terrace homes and traditional dwellings connected by kilometres of pathways and bikeways. Around 30% of Bells Reach is dedicated to green open space. The development achieved outstanding financial returns, performing ahead of many other comparable projects and selling out a full two years ahead of expectations.
Blackburne’s first-class approach reinvigorated the owner-occupier apartment market and saw the Western Suburbs come roaring back to life. With breathtaking architecture, a resort-style fit out, and a host of resort-style facilities, Aria offers a lavish sanctuary in one of Perth’s most exclusive beachside precincts. The result of its leading-edge thinking and strategic focus was a stunning $70 million in sales within 3 months of its launch, powerfully vindicating Blackburne as an industry leader in the luxury apartment market.
