Willow Apartments, Doncaster

These days, the sense of community between neighbours has all but disappeared, as we become increasingly consumed in our mobile phones and technology in general.

But, there’s one exception bucking that trend.

Enter any residential estate and you’ll notice children playing backyard cricket and neighbours borrowing a cup of milk for tonight’s dinner.

There’s a real sense of community spirit, and it’s not hard to see why many families, couples, and singles, are now choosing to live among such a welcoming environment.

‘Willow Apartments’, nestled in Doncaster’s Williamson Estate, offers one, two and three bedroom apartments, with the choice of the number of bathrooms also available.

At Williamsons Estate, there are tree-lined streets, winding pathways for walks in the sunshine, and a park to sit back and relax in.

The idea is easy living that makes you feel like you’re miles away from the bustle of the CBD.

But in reality, Doncaster is only 20 minutes from the city on the Eastern Freeway.

And there’s even the option to jump on the Eastlink and head down to the Mornington Peninsula.

While there are plenty of schools, restaurants and cafes nearby, Aquarena YMCA is opposite, and Westfield Doncaster is within walking distance for shopaholics to get their fix.

But you wouldn’t know all of this taking in the peace and quiet on your terrace.

The architects behind the project, RotheLowman, considered the overall aesthetic of the estate when designing the look and feel of the development.

What has resulted is a collection of 64 apartments and 8 terrace homes that sit in harmony with the site, complementing the natural environment with the use of wood, stone and other natural materials.

The apartments have been arranged to ensure maximum privacy for every resident, providing plenty of peace and quiet after a long day at work.

On the inside, the floor plans revolve around light-filled, open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas.

Buyers have the option to tailor the interior to their tastes, with the option of light or dark colour palettes for the joinery, kitchen benches, tiles and floor coverings.

And there’s no doubt buyers will be quick to snap up what’s on offer, if the recent success in the estate is anything to go by.

Developer CEL Australia is behind the entire Williamson Estate project, with all of the contemporary townhouses on the site now sold out.

With a large portion of the townhouses due for completion by the end of the year, potential buyers of Willow Apartments can get a glimpse in to the lifestyle they can expect when purchasing within the estate.

The apartments will be complete in 2017.
