The Milford: A Masterclass in Dual Occupancy Living

Our latest dual occupancy display home, the Milford, has arrived in Bentleigh East and it’s open for inspection. The rise of dual occupancy projects in Melbourne’s inner suburbs is no secret, particularly given the advantageous housing model it provides to buyers or investors who are sitting on a run-down property in need of demolition or an under-utilised block of land. 

Buyers have the choice to live in, rent or sell the residences (or a combination) which can provides a beneficial second stream of income or lucrative nest egg for the years to come. Not to mention, households with multiple generations living under the one roof are continuing to rise in popularity in Australia. A dual occupancy property allows elderly parents or in-laws to remain close-by, while ensuring that every household member maintains their space, privacy and independence. 

Aside from the handful of potential financial advantages, the intelligent design of the Milford showcases the best of contemporary dual occupancy living. So, let’s take a look inside. 

1. A modern facade, striking from all angles

The sleek Molden facade is guaranteed to appeal to you, prospective tenants or the discerning eye of Melbourne buyers. Contrasting cladding with high-quality materials creates a point of interest, while ensuring that the facade continues to blend in with the urban streetscape.

2. Bask in light-filled, open plan living

If there’s one thing Melbourne locals are known for, it’s their discerning eye. Whether it’s arts and culture, world class dining or an enduring love of sports, lifestyle is a huge priority — and this extends to inside the home. The Milford takes seamless indoor-outdoor living to new heights. Large sliding doors extend down the length of the open plan layout, creating a seamless flow between the outdoors and in. Summer entertaining is a breeze on the connected alfresco and your home’s kitchen and dining will be the number one dinner party destination amongst friends and family.

3. Put your feet up in spacious bedrooms with ample storage

If you’re planning to rent or sell, the generously proportioned bedrooms, each with their own ensuite, is a huge drawcard of the Milford design. For those planning to call the Milford home, these comfortable sanctuaries grow with you, providing every household member — from older teens to young adults — with their own space and privacy. There won’t be any fighting over bedrooms, as each is as good as the next. 

4. Enjoy a home with luxury inclusions, as standard

In our Masterpiece range, the luxury specifications are second to none, reflecting our commitment to providing the best in every sense of the word. With masterful strokes of design showcased in semi-cantilevered stairs, Caesarstone benchtops and deluxe Miele appliances, every detail is considered to elevate your living experience from the moment you step through the front door. If you’re planning to move-in, you can choose what features to splurge or save on, because you know that you’re receiving high-quality finishes and fixtures thanks to a star-studded inclusions list, regardless.
