The developer, Swanson Developments Ltd was founded in 2022 to develop the perfectly located Swanson Rd site. While this is their first residential development, the family trust that owns Swanson Road has developed and holds commercial property, and in 2005-2015 developed lifestyle properties in Whitford. Swanson Developments Ltd is committed to building exceptional quality into their housing for today’s astute buyers, and the results are evident in each one of the finished terraced houses.

Swanson Developments Ltd company values are:

• ​The expertise to deliver quality.

• The reliability, skill, and security to instill confidence.

• Being supportive of the needs of the end user.

• Professionalism and respect towards our clients.

Yes, the development is managed by the Swanson Developments Residents Society Incorporated; a legal structure that provides several key benefits and clear responsibilities for the community:

• The Society is governed by a formal Constitution and a set of Rules. These are designed to ensure quiet enjoyment for all property owners and a clear framework to ensure every resident complies with community standards.

• The Society manages a collective insurance policy that covers the full replacement value of the buildings and common infrastructure. Please note that this insurance does not cover your personal contents; residents are responsible for arranging their own individual contents insurance.

• The Society is responsible for the ongoing cleaning and professional maintenance of all common areas, shared landscaping, and the private driveway.

• The Society also manages shared infrastructure, including common drainage systems and the designated rubbish collection area (Area RA), ensuring these services operate efficiently for all the units.

Yes, EV charging is available and points have been provided for owners close to all allocated car spaces. The charging unit would be installed at the owner’s cost. Charging is billed via a direct-charge link to the owner.

There is dedicated external bike storage available at 3 locations in the common area. However, there is also space for bike storage in the generous yard areas within each property.

Yes, pets are permitted, subject to common sense rules that ensure pets do not interfere with the enjoyment of other townhouse owners. See Residents Society Rules.
