In Brighton East, a new address is quietly gathering momentum among those in the know.

It’s called Milli. And while this new townhouse collection may not be making a song and dance, it’s ticking the right boxes, particularly for families looking to grow and downsizers who still want room to breathe.

Developed by locally based boutique property developer DM Property and architecturally designed by the acclaimed Cera Stribley, Milli is now under construction by Saw Constructions.

Families, downsizers, and investors alike have been loving Milli’s offering and attention to detail, with buyer interest strong. And, with just a few weeks left to customise, and the window for maximum stamp duty savings of up to $91,000 diminishing, the time to buy is just right.

What makes Milli different?

It starts with the way it’s been laid out. With three street frontages, the residences have been designed to feel like standalone homes, not just in look, but in how they function.

Natural light, privacy, and individual entries are all built in. It’s rare in this part of Bayside, and it shows.

“We’ve seen it over and over again,” says Darren Blair of Blair Property Group, who’s leading the sales campaign. “Buyers are done with overly complicated homes, they want something that feels good to live in.

“That starts with floorplans that make sense, finishes that are durable, and a neighbourhood that still feels like a neighbourhood.”

And Milli delivers on all three.

Sustainability with substance

Sustainability at Milli isn’t just an afterthought, but operates seamlessly in the background, reducing costs and environmental impact without sacrificing style.

Each home includes rooftop solar, is EV-ready, and features rainwater harvesting and energy-efficient lighting. The homes average a 7-star energy rating, and materials have been chosen for both performance and wellbeing, which means double glazing, low VOC paints, and insulation that works hard without you noticing.

“We try to design homes that do their job quietly,” says Brendan Mullan, director at DM Property.

“Good design shouldn’t be something you constantly notice. It should just make life easier, like keeping a baby asleep through a hot day or a loud night.”

The residences 

Inside, each townhome boasts the kind of space that just makes sense.

Kitchens function as well as they look, with natural stone benchtops, Fisher & Paykel appliances, brushed nickel tapware, and thoughtful joinery that suits the flow of everyday life. Bathrooms are serene, clean-lined, and beautifully tiled. While oak timber flooring and brushed chrome hardware throughout the home add warmth and longevity.

“There’s so much noise in the market right now,” says David Dordevic, co-founder of DM Property.

“But in the end, people come back to what works: quality that lasts and design that holds up.

“That’s what we’ve aimed for with Milli. No gimmicks, just the right stuff, done well.”

A location that still feels local

Tucked into a leafy pocket of Brighton East, Milli is zoned for the highly regarded Gardenvale Primary School and just around the corner from Hurlingham Park, meaning your walks to the park don’t involve crossing a busy main road.

This neighbourhood is known for its friendly local feel. Think weekend walks to nearby cafés, easy everyday access to shopping villages, and a sense of community that’s increasingly rare, where the neighbours nod hello.

Final homes selling

With construction moving quickly and most of the homes now spoken for, only a handful of opportunities remain to personalise your interiors and secure stamp duty savings of up to $91,000.

Three- and four-bedroom residences are available now, priced from $1.715 million for a three-bedroom townhome with three bathrooms and two car parks.
