Ever dreamed of owning a holiday home in Australia, planning for a carefree retirement in the Land Down Under, or looking to invest in Australian real estate? If you are, it’s time to take note of an upcoming development in Perth – Red Castle apartments.

Location
Location is paramount in real estate, and Red Castle offers one of the best new locations in Perth. The development is just a stone’s throw away from the Swan River, and is within walking distance to several recreational parks nearby, a train station, bus stops, and a stadium, which is currently under construction.

Connectivity
Red Castle boasts great connectivity to central Perth, as it has the Burswood train station and several bus networks in its vicinity. It is just minutes away by car from the central business district, Curtin University, Perth International Airport, the Belmont Forum (which houses over 100 specialty stores and F&B outlets), and 10-screen Reading Cinema complex. The Graham Farmer Freeway provides easy access to central Perth and its surrounding beaches, while the Mitchell Freeway connects it to the rest of Western Australia (can we say road trip?!). In addition, Red Castle has a great Walk-Score, meaning that errands can be done on foot, thus reducing pollution and expenses while encouraging a healthier lifestyle.

Lifestyle
Red Castle is set at the edge of the Crown Entertainment Precinct, which houses the world class facilities of the Crown Entertainment Complex at its heart. If what you seek is entertainment and excitement, the Crown Entertainment Complex with its two hotels, premium restaurants and bars, a nightclub, convention centre, theatre, resort-style pool, day spa, retail outlets, and world class casino are just a short, safe walk away, surrounded by several lush green parks and beautiful lakes. The complex is built right beside the beautiful Swan River, and visitors can stroll along the boardwalk, paddle or ski on the water, cycle to the city via the cycling trail, enjoy a bit of fishing, and basically have fun at the many sporting and recreation facilities available there.

Facilities
Residents at Red Castle will appreciate having the use of a fully equipped gym for working out, or relaxing at the lounge and wi-fi areas. There are private landscaped gardens perfect for picnics or family outdoor activities, and a secure underground bike storage area. One of the most unique features is the residents-only rooftop entertaining area, which offers panoramic views of the city, Swan River, and surrounding hills. The development also has remote controlled traffic security gates and a secure lobby and entries which lead to innovative floor plans that maximise space.

Design
The development itself is made up of a cluster of 7-storey apartment blocks, with 6 types of unit layouts ranging in size from 80sqm to 219sqm, designed by an award-winning Australian architectural group. Each Red Castle apartment has large windows which open out to a wide balcony, designed to connect the open living areas within to the outdoors space beyond, providing a breath of fresh air and ideal for entertaining guests. The apartments also come fitted with quality stainless steel appliances, beautiful stone and granite bench tops, split-system air conditioning, quality wooden flooring, high ceilings, a storeroom, and allocated parking space. The aim? To provide stylish, cosmopolitan living at affordable prices.
