Keep a location - upgrade a lifestyle
When you already live in one of the most sought-after locations on the planet, the last think you want to do is move – no matter how tempting an upgrade in lifestyle might appear. So many owners of beachfront property are blessed with an amazing location but have difficulty converting that asset to a comparable level of comfort and lifestyle. That’s why Sherpa Property Group’s innovative approach can change your Perspective on beachfront lifestyle. Now you can keep your world-class location and upgrade to a luxury lifestyle with ease. You’re about to find out how you can have your cake and eat it too!
Changing your Perspective on beachfront luxury
Ken Gibson didn’t want to move an inch. He loved his beachfront location and made the most of the view from his verandah every day. His beach home, Willma, had been a beachfront feature of the neighbourhood for about 70 years and was one of the last old farm houses left on Palm Beach. As it turns out, Ken is moving a little more than an inch – about a foot, actually. The new beach-watching position in his luxury apartment will be about 30cm higher than his old verandah.
Ken is converting his amazing location into amazing location PLUS luxury with the help of Sherpa Property Group. Perspective 202 (Bilinga), currently under construction, delivers four one-per-floor apartments and one two-level penthouse, offering a new perspective on beachfront living. Being the owner of the original property proved a big advantage for Ken because he secured the apartment of his choice before the project ever hit the market. Subsequently, the project experienced significant demand and sold out before being released to the market.
Ken’s grandparents, William and Mary (whose names were combined to give the home her “Willma” name), moved the old farm house from the Helidon/Laidley area in about the 1940s. “In those days, it was all sand dunes and people built their homes away from the beach so they were less exposed to the weather,” Ken said. Having become so accustomed to the captivating view from his highset verandah, Ken is buying an apartment at the same height in the new development being built on his block.
“I’ll be sitting in exactly the same spot, maybe just 30cm higher, enjoying the same view,” he said. “Lots of people had wanted to buy the block in the past but most of them wanted to knock it down to build their own home or else they wanted to build a big block of units. This was different.”
Time is right when the development is right
The last thing a property owner wants to do is “sell up” only to see they could have had a better deal two years later. Many historic beachfront homes have remained a part of the Gold Coast landscape for many decades for that very reason. The problem with selling, at any time, is you are usually buying in the same market and while values on your old property might go up or down, the value of your new property will do something similar. But what if you didn’t have to let go of the old property at all – you just stayed put and upgraded your lifestyle? Sherpa Property Group’s innovative Perspective developments give you the best of both worlds and your beachfront property continues to increase in value (they’re not making any more beachfront!).
‘Less is More’ drives innovative design
Sherpa Property Group is bucking the traditional “maximum-profit” trend to produce somewhat of a revolution in beachfront property. Their low density luxury developments and innovative designs are driven by one key belief: Less Is More. That’s why your desired lifestyle is the main influence at the design stage and why the end result delivers greater liveability and amenity. Your home should be as unique as you are. But the cookie-cutter approach found in most developments only restricts your options and forces you to compromise. That is why Sherpa flipped the cookie-cutter approach on its head, choosing instead to be guided by lifestyle and allowing room for flexibility and customisation. You can tailor your home to suit your needs and personality.
From the outset, Sherpa’s goal is to deliver a home worth more at settlement than when signing the contract. That’s because their mission goes beyond successful business – they are building a legacy that will help define the region for decades to come. With more than 30 years experience, Sherpa has already earned a reputation as one of the Gold Coast’s premium developers for unparalleled attention to detail and the relentless pursuit of excellence.
