Margaret River Townhouses
MDC Architects
Nestled among existing mature gum trees, these six new townhouses make a welcome addition to Margaret River.
Centrally located, these light and sunny 2- and 3-bedroom homes have private outdoor entertaining spaces and enjoy walkable access to local shops, cafes and restaurants, the weekly farmer’s market, schools, health facilities, playgrounds and the skate park.
Efficient spatial planning and a pre-fabricated timber-framed wall and roof construction methodology resulted in a short build program – of only 11 months – meeting the need for more medium-density housing in a challenging housing market.
The entire development achieves an average 8+ star NatHERS rating – exceeding the mandated minimum code requirements – to deliver year-round comfort and energy-efficiency for residents.
This project demonstrates that it’s possible to deliver efficient and high-quality medium-density housing within an existing neighbourhood, without sacrificing the desirable qualities that make regional lifestyles appealing for so many people.
