2/10 Asling Street, Brighton VIC 3186

Architect-designed townhouse | North-facing dual-zone living | Shortlisted design award | Lock-and-leave Brighton lifestyle. This property occupies a rare position in Brighton’s townhouse market: an architect-designed residence with a design award shortlist, dual north-facing living levels, and a 848m² land holding in a complex of only two units. The configuration delivers genuine separation of spaces for a family or professional couple, while the basement garage with lift access and the lock-and-leave landscaping reduce ongoing maintenance. The property suits buyers who prioritise design quality, natural light, and a walkable position near Bay Street, without the upkeep of a detached house. The main risk is the price gap between the current guide and the 2022 sale, which may reflect market movement or overpricing relative to comparable townhouses in the area. The rental yield at the guide price is below 3%, so an owner-occupier will extract more value than an investor. The absence of heritage, flood, or bushfire overlays removes regulatory friction, and the NBN FTTP and 5G coverage support modern living. Hold this property as a primary residence for its design longevity and low-maintenance advantage; rental returns are secondary.
