Case Study: Porter Matthews Victoria Park Sells a Contemporary 3-Bedroom Townhouse in Applecross, WA
Porter Matthews Victoria Park recently achieved another strong sales result with the successful sale of a modern three-bedroom, two-bathroom, two-storey townhouse in the prestigious riverside suburb of Applecross, Western Australia. The property offered an ideal blend of low-maintenance living, modern design, and a highly desirable location, appealing to both professionals and downsizers looking for lifestyle and convenience.
The home ultimately sold to a professional couple eager to secure a quality property close to the Swan River, cafes, and transport links. This sale highlighted the agency’s expertise in positioning well-presented townhouses to attract motivated buyers in Perth’s premium inner suburbs.
The Property
This two-storey townhouse showcased the perfect balance of modern comfort and practical design. The ground floor featured a well-considered open-plan layout that connected the living, dining, and kitchen areas seamlessly, providing a bright and welcoming environment ideal for entertaining or relaxed evenings at home.
The kitchen was smartly designed, offering ample cabinetry, modern appliances, and generous bench space that catered perfectly to modern living. Large windows throughout the ground floor allowed plenty of natural light to fill the home, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
A standout feature of the property was its private rear courtyard, a peaceful retreat ideal for morning coffees, weekend barbeques, or quiet evenings outdoors. The low-maintenance design made it especially attractive to busy professionals seeking a lock-and-leave lifestyle without the upkeep of a large garden.
For added practicality, the home included a guest powder room on the lower level, providing convenience for visitors and enhancing the functionality of the layout.
Upstairs, the three bedrooms offered privacy and comfort, with the master suite featuring an ensuite bathroom and built-in storage. The additional two bedrooms were well-sized, making them suitable for guests, a home office, or future family needs. The second bathroom was thoughtfully designed and finished in a modern neutral palette, complementing the rest of the home.
Completing the property was a secure two-car garage, offering direct access to the townhouse and additional storage space, an important inclusion in Applecross, where parking can be at a premium.
