The frustrating process of finding a spacious "Lifestyle Apartment" to replace the family home to live in, just got a whole lot easier

Cannon Hills newest project of 9 very spacious 3BR Park Frontage apartments, offer residents views to Brisbane City from the stunning roof-top recreation area where the apartments have been meticulously designed specifically for downsizers who still want "real space" or the executive wanting to work from home.



If your considering Downsizing or “Rightsizing” the experience should be seen as an exciting next step after probably raising a family over the years in the large family home.


However, as it could be your final property purchase for some years to come there is a lot to consider.....


Chances are you’ve worked very hard and sacrificed a lot over the years and now its time to move onto a well deserved low maintenance home and you can enjoy more freedom to reach personal goals and leisure activities where you never had time before.


You don't want to get it wrong and the checklist we have prepared for you today, will help you discover what other downsizers have stated they must have to truly enjoy apartment living.

One of the main considerations when downsizing to an apartment from the large family home is obviously space after selling the family home and this can be sometimes overlooked with many buyers concerned about storage space, but should be scrutinising the available Living Space instead.


For example, family and friends come to visit your new apartment. How can you entertain in comfort like you used to in the family house with the BBQ sizzling away, esky's positioned within easy reach, 3 different conversations going on without talking over each other and kids running around.


It's virtually impossible to find "real spacious options" in many apartment complexes and the only entertaining area is on the balcony, which can also be very cramped, but that's not the case today.


This issue has been addressed in fine style in the upcoming new release in Cannon Hill, by not only offering large balconies, but also the stunning rooftop recreation terrace with views over the adjoing park to Brisbane City.




This will be an enormous rooftop where you can entertain or enjoy working on the laptop in the fresh air, but It's also important to look at the quality of items being installed on the rooftop that will bring it all together. 


This involves a lot more than a trip to bunnings to pick up some foldaway chairs, a $150 BBQ and some incense candles to set the mood....... it will include a top of the range stainless steel BBQ, beautifully designed firepit and elegant but comfortable sofas, dining setting and sun lounges, as you will discover in the videos below.


This will be a premium fit-out you where will be proud to entertain your family and friends and here's why.


Lets start with the fire pit. Ok the apartments in Cannon Hill are not on the water (as in the video below) but Imagine having a drop of your favourite beverage, gathered around the firepit as the sun goes down over Brisbane City!

For all you BBQ gourmet chefs get your favourite marinade ready (I can smell the aroma now!) If you want to see the BBQ in action just click on the image below to view video. The BBQ and firepit will be sourced from "Artisans in metal" https://southernstainless.com.au/about-us/ 

Last but not least the outdoor furniture will be sourced from renowned outdoor furniture craftsman "King Living" who have been pioneers of crafting stylish outdoor furniture for over 40 years. 

Combine all of the above with the panoramic views from the rooftop terrace over the park to the City and you have a magical combination of sophisticated, low maintenance, spacious living for owners (and any very lucky tenants!)

Keep reading on to discover what downsizers really crave for in their buying criteria list.


After viewing the roof-top recreation area, I am sure you will agree this complex of just 9 exclusive 3 bedroom  apartments are going to offer a very special lifestyle for fortunate owners.


But let's now take a look at the many other issues from concerned "downsizers" and how the developer has incorporated a lot of the requests into the design and inclusions.

The checklist we have prepared below for you will help immensely in your decision making.

After dealing with numerous projects and buyers over the years I have found several deciding factors that downsizers are looking for.


I provided the information below to the developer sometime back in his research phase and am pleased to announce he listened to the downsizer market and his newest project ticks all the boxes below. (I will give you a sneak peek of his Brand New Project shortly) 

Many downsizers are looking for a stress free purchase and an “off plan” purchase fits their brief in most cases and here’s Why ……..

  • There’s no involvement in renovations and everything is brand new with warranties in place.
  • If purchasing early “off plan” various fixtures and fittings plus floorings can be tailored to suit the buyers needs.
  • Another major benefit with an “off plan” purchase is time. Many projects released for sale will not be ready for 12 months to 2 years. This provides plenty of time to slowly pack up the house and also time to sell their current property to settle in time with their brand new home.
  • No cash deposit required? - if structured correctly the equity in their existing home can be used as the deposit for the new “off plan” purchase with no funds required until construction is complete ready for occupancy……

Read on to discover a list I put together after speaking with numerous buyers to determine what downsizers really want (and deserve)



Here’s what downsizers really want:


✔️ Boutique developments – maximum of 20 in complex

✔️ Light and bright natural light

✔️ BRAND NEW!- new kitchens and bathrooms

✔️ NO STAIRS – horizontal living

✔️ Two car parks – secure and undercover (prefer not tandem)

✔️ Large balconies or outdoor entertainment space

✔️ Able to lockup and leave

✔️ Able to keep small pets

✔️ Proximity to shopping, cafes and restaurants

✔️ Proximity to public transport

✔️ Proximity to health professionals

✔️ Proximity to parks and walking tracks

✔️ Quality fixtures and fittings

✔️ Low maintenance

✔️ Remain part of a community (or become apart the community)

✔️ Close to family and friends

✔️ Remain in a known area

✔️ Large open plan living

✔️ Three bedrooms – master must be large with large robes and en-suite
