Managing Director Sam Buxton has commenced the marketing for The Trentham in the affluent suburb of Sandringham, 16km south of Melbourne’s CBD, which is being sold as a “boutique beachside hotel from yesteryear”.
As we reported HERE OnetoAnother was born from the Buxton Group, which was founded in 1968 by Sam’s father Richard Buxton, who delivered properties across residential, commercial, hospitality and recreation sectors.
The Group added retirement to their development portfolio, opening the luxury 71-apartment Rylands of Brighton in 2002 which became the brand name for the group. Two more five-star Rylands villages in Kew and Hawthorn were added to the portfolio.
Aveo bought the Brighton village and the other two other retirement villages were sold to Stockland, who then sold them to Roger Kwok’s Arcadia Communities.
The family re-entered the retirement living sector in 2012 and bought back the Brighton village, naming it The Crescent.
In December 2019, the Buxton Group completed its second 35-apartment development, The Granton, also in Brighton.
With construction of The Trentham commencing this month, there will be 50 apartments, with sizes ranging from: two-bedrooms 94sqm to 153sqm and three-bedrooms 160sqm to 194sqm. Private open space ranges from 8sqm to 131sqm.
The pricing reflects the quality of the establishment. Two-bedroom apartments from $1.29 million to $2.95 million; two-bedroom + study $1.6 million to $2.45 million; three-bedroom $3.1 million to $3.6 million, and three-bedroom +study $3.6 million.
Sam says demand has been strong and the Buxton family are the developers.
