Chinese property developer Hengyi International will unveil its international residential development “The William”, located in the heart of Melbourne’s central business district, this Saturday and Sunday.
The development is being launched exclusively in Singapore ahead of its Australian release expected in April of this year and will offer Singaporean purchasers to gain a foothold in one of the world’s most sought-after property markets with prices starting from A$359,000 (S$482,924).
“The William represents our first foray into the Melbourne market so we had to select a AAA grade CBD location to give us our beach head in Australia. We then assembled the best design team possible including Bruce Henderson Architects and Sue Carr Interiors to create a product that is far superior in finish and quality than what we saw as the average Melbourne CBD product,” said Danielle Ashworth, Sales Manager for Hengyi Australia.
The development combines the sleekness of contemporary architecture balanced against warm interiors, hotel style facilities including a roof top outdoor heated swimming pool, huge gymnasium, 24 hour security and concierge, residents lounge, business facilities plus retail shopping and food centre.
All apartments feature contemporary design chosen to meet the demands of modern living.
Each has its own balcony or winter garden. Floor to ceiling glazing maximises light and affords properties on the upper floors stunning views of Melbourne.
Bathrooms come with floor to ceiling tiles, Gessi Italian tap wear, dual flush cistern, soft close toilet seats and enormous storage. The kitchens come with German made soft close mechanisms, an integrated fridge and freezer, cutlery dividers and four burner gas cook tops.
The William is ideally located for transport links into city. It is located only a five-minute walk from all major train stations including Southern Cross Train Station, Flagstaff Station and Melbourne Central station and located on a direct Melbourne University tram line.
As part of a special promotion for this weekend, the developer said it will offer a number of special offers including a 6.5 per cent gross rental guarantee to qualifying buyers as well as free legal fee for all sales.
The launch will be held at the Regent Hotel Singapore, Boardroom II and III from 11 am till 7 pm with daily seminar at 2 pm.
