Townsville's $13 million Magnetic Views Estate reaches completion with only a handful of lots remaining

Construction of Townsville’s newest lifestyle address, Magnetic Views Estate, has reached completion with only a few lots remaining in the boutique land release after an astonishing $7.45 million sales run by developer Centurion Global.

The picturesque and private gated estate located on an elevated coastal site at 1 The Esplanade, Cape Pallandera and sitting only a stone’s throw from Townsville’s CBD has been a hit with local buyers who have snared the first eight lots of the exclusive $13 million, 13-lot release.

Founding Director of Centurion Global, Mark Tonge, says with the estate now having reached completion a lift in buyer activity is expected for the remaining lots with the land ready to build on.

“Locals have been early movers gaining a foothold in this development, which offers some of the largest home sites in Townsville with magnificent ocean and city views,” said Mr Tonge.

Magnetic Views Estate is surrounded by lush open bushland and the sandy shores of the Coral Sea to the east. Home sites, which range in size from 773sqm to 2855sqm, offer various panoramic views that take in Magnetic Island and south to Townsville’s CBD.

Centurion Global has positioned Magnetic Views Estate to become the premier residential address for the unofficial capital of far north Queensland, offering a secure gated development for families to build their dream home.

Magnetic Views Estate is located within easy access to everything that Townsville has to offer, from sandy beaches, swimming enclosures and coastal wetlands, to some of the region’s best fishing – and all within easy reach of schools, shopping, and Townsville’s vibrant city centre.

Lot prices range from $850,000 to $1.1 million, with the average sale price achieved to date at $930,000.

“We’re proud to be bringing our newest development to completion for Townsville,” said Mr Tonge.

“The market response has been exceptional and we’re looking forward to securing buyers for the remaining lots with homesites now ready to build on.”

The five remaining lots at Magnetic Views Estate range in size from 773sqm to 2,162sqm and resident also have open access to more than 4,000sqm of picturesque shared open space and community parklands.

All blocks have town water and sewerage, with each block also having full access to NBN connection, allowing for seamless and hi speed Wi-Fi and appealing to buyers who may work remotely.

Further adding to the appeal is Magnetic Views Estate’s short commute to the airport, which is a key playing card for interstate buyers looking who frequently travel for work.

The lots comprise:

Lot 4, a 2,036sqm site offering 180-degree south facing views of the Coral Sea that take in the green vistas of Pallarenda Conservation Park and the northern tip of Magnetic Island.

Lot 5, a 2,018sqm middle lot with a large building envelope of 862sqm. This elevated north-facing block offers a peaceful oasis to build a new home that captures cool summer breezes.

Lot 6, a 2,162sqm site with a building envelope of 774sqm. A north-facing corner block with views to the north-west of the estate, it offers spectacular views as well as the highest level of privacy surrounded by the serenity of coastal native plant species.

Lot 11, a central lot of 773sqm, offers uninterrupted views of the Townsville coastline south-east from Cape Cleveland to The Esplanade, Castle Hill and beyond.

Lot 12, an 816sqm site, has views to the south and south-east, taking in the vista east to Magnetic Island and south to the city lights of The Strand in the evening.

The landmark residential project is the first undertaken in Townsville by Centurion Global, which has an extensive residential portfolio in south-east Queensland.

Townsville has become a key focus for the group, with Magnetic Views part of a $82.4 million portfolio either under way or in the pipeline for the city.

This includes the 54-lot Limestone Estate in the suburb of Condon and Castle Hill Estate, another premium 33-lot gated land release located just minutes from the CBD.

Centurion Global has also secured an inner-Townsville Ross River project, comprising 53 apartments, with construction set to start this year.
