<ul><ul><li>In a prime location.</li>
	<li>Contemporary and spacious townhouses.</li>
	<li>Easy accessibility to transport services.</li>
</ul></ul>Kaylina Gardens are a collection of just 22 architecturally designed boutique townhouses in a serene, well-established neighbourhood within the coveted Hills District. These generous, tastefully appointed residences present an ambiance of relaxed sophistication, complete with tranquil private gardens and alfresco entertaining spaces. Immerse yourself in nature and enjoy a prime location in one of Sydney’s most renowned growth corridors, conveniently close to all of the attractions that make Castle Hill such a beloved place to call home.

While wonderfully private, there is a welcoming atmosphere of community. Built around idyllic communal gardens, a selection of three-story boutique townhouses provide plenty of choice for a range of lifestyles, from families to downsizers. All come with double basement security parking with convenient internal access and storage.

Kaylina Gardens’ serene leafy setting is balanced with proximity to a host of urban conveniences and fabulous recreational amenities to make life effortless, exciting and diverse. The vibrant retail and restaurant precinct of Castle Towers caters to all of your shopping and dining needs and with the new Sydney Metro railway, you’ll be able to walk to two stations, substantially enhancing accessibility to the city and beyond.

The seamless relationship between the indoors and outdoors was fundamental to the design of these perfectly planned residences. The easy transition to the fabulous alfresco spaces creates a wonderful environment for entertaining. Many residences feature both a private rear entertaining courtyard and a landscaped front garden, while others open to dining patios extending to manicured lawns, all framed by established trees for privacy.

A choice of two stylish colour schemes allows you some flexibility and the opportunity to personalise your space to suit your taste. The lighter scheme is fresh and timeless, drawing upon more neutral tones to create the perfect backdrop to any décor. The darker scheme has more drama and contrast for a bold impact. Kitchens feature timber-grain joinery complemented by engineered stone benchtops and a 900mm black glass cooktop. Bathrooms are appointed with bold large-format tiles, ultracontemporary Villeroy &amp; Boch/Argent fixtures and fittings, with many featuring baths.

Kaylina Gardens is just 1km (or an 11-minute walk) to both Castle Hill and Hills Showground stations along the forthcoming high-frequency Sydney Metro railway, which will substantially improve connectivity to the area. Hills Showground station will have 600 commuter parking spaces while from Castle Hill station it will be a 44-minute ride to the CBD reducing to 35 minutes in 2024, with a train every four minutes in peak hour.

The Hills District is loved for its abundance of green open spaces and recreational attractions. Beautiful Castle Hill Heritage Park is home to walking tracks, picnic areas, and a playground amid 20ha of rolling hills and blue gum forest. Heritage Park is great for picnicking, Eric Mobbs Reserve features four sports fields and Bidjigal Reserve contains noteworthy Aboriginal and European cultural heritage, including rock shelters with archaeological deposits.

Something you can never change in real estate is location.

Property itself can always be changed, whether it's a knockdown rebuild of a house, or a full renovation of an apartment. One thing that can't be changed is location.

Developer Sitecorp secured a prime spot for its latest <a href="/new-apartments/blacktown-nsw-2148">Blacktown apartment development</a> <a href="/new-apartments/dara-41-43-kildare-road-blacktown">DARA on Kildare Road</a>, conveniently yet quietly set just off Balmoral Street, where Blacktown's Westpoint, one of Blacktown's two major shopping precincts, is located.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=234286]

Westpoint has over 260 retailers and food and beverage options, with the main retailers including Coles, Woolworth and Aldi, Kmart, Big W and Priceline. One of the HOYTS Xtremescreens is the largest standard cinema screen in the country.

Westpoint is next door to Blacktown Train Station, which will connect DARA residents to the city in under 40 minutes.

Blacktown is also home to Sydney's last remaining Drive in Theatre, the Skyline Drive In, a 10-minute drive from DARA. The site for the theatre is also home to Blacktown Markets every Sunday.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=244804]

Skyline is also next door to Raging Waters, one of Sydney's top water parks. For more family friendly attraction's there's&nbsp;Featherdale Sydney Wildlife Park and Sydney Premier Karting Parlk, both also within a 10-minute drive from DARA.

Blacktown has a diverse cultural population, which is reflected in the dining scene. There's traditional Burmese food at Sun's Burmese Kitchen to African delights at Gursha Ethiopian Restaurant. Other culinary options include BT Korean barbecue, Radhe Chatpata House for vegetarian Indian, and Blacktown Chopsticks for traditional Chinese fare.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=234287]

Beyond the retail and culinary scene, residents of Dara will appreciate the proximity to parklands such as The Blacktown Showground and Joseph Frank Park, just a couple of hundred metres from its doorstep.

Designed by Urban Link, Dara comprises <a href="/news/nsw/why-the-latest-blacktown-apartment-development-offers-the-best-value-for-money-in-sydney">67 affordable apartments</a> in one, two, and three-bedroom configurations, including a limited selection of spacious garden apartments featuring expansive private courtyards.

Blacktown's most connected apartment development: How DARA's prime location sets it apart 

Blacktown is set to receive one of its most well price pointed, visually striking apartment developments to date with DARA, a contemporary five-level building in the heart of the central Western Sydney suburb.

Builder Sitecorp has already started construction on the collection of just 67 apartments, which are slated for completion in early 2025.

Every one, two and three-bedroom apartment ticks the&nbsp;box for $0 stamp duty, with every two and three-bedroom unit falling under the NSW Government's $800k stamp duty concession threshold.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=234287]

There's also the $10,000 NSW First Home Owner&nbsp;Grant for apartments up to $600,000, which captures a number of the entry-level two-bedroom apartments in DARA. The developer has also teamed up with Coposit for their $10k deposit scheme, where a buyer pays a $10,000 deposit before paying down the rest of the deposit in instalments.

The prices at DARA come in well below other comparable new developments in the nearby Merrylands and Auburn areas.

While mostly targeting owner-occupiers, astute investors are likely to be looking at the apartments given the low entry point and the likelihood of around five per cent yields, as well as strong depreciation allowances.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=234289]

Investors will too be looking at the 56 per cent population increase forecasted by the Blacktown City Council between now and 2041. Blacktown will act as the central hub to the population boom, which will see residents in the local government area jump from just under 400,000 to over 625,000.

Architecturally designed by Urban Link, the apartments feature spacious living areas designed to maximise natural light.&nbsp;The kitchens are designed with a focus on functionality and modern simplicity and are equipped with quality integrated appliances.

The garden apartments feature expansive private courtyards.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=142774 project_image_fid=240593]

Residents will have access to the shared rooftop which has been designed for activities from yoga to sunset gatherings with panoramic views over the city.

DARA is ideally located across the road from Blacktown Showground and 100 metres from Blacktown Train Station and Westpoint Shopping Centre.
