Vailele, one of Sydney's most tightly held riverfront homes, has been sold by the Salter family.
The historic sandstone home in Woolwich, which has only had five owners since its 1892 construction, secured around $23 million.
It last traded for $3 million, when it was 1993's top sale on the North Shore water's edge, and before that in 1979 when bought by abattoir owner Trevor Wadland for $375,000.
It is long remembered as the location of scenes from the Network Ten mini-series, Return to Eden, the 1983 television drama starring Rebecca Gilling, James Reyne and Wendy Hughes.
Steeped in history, the three storey home once hosted Scottish novelist Robert Louis Stevenson as its guest, who lived out some of his later days in the garden cottage while based at Samoa.
Stevenson even gifted two of the heritage palm trees that sit in the garden.
Ken Jacobs at Christie's International was seeking around $24 million to $26 million for the late 19th century sandstone home.
Under its slate roof there's original fireplaces, ornate ceiling roses and stained glass windows along with intricate turned timber posts on the marble tiled verandahs still intact after its two year restoration.
The home's named derives from the Samoan term for 'running water.'  An original sandstone water bubbler and heritage-listed sandstone well have been revived, the latter irrigating the grounds. 
The peninsula's most recent trophy home saw was earlier this year when the actor Cate Blanchett and her playwright husband Andrew Upton sold Bulwarra.
The $18 million sale came after an earlier $19.8 million sale failed to proceed.
The historic 1877-built residence - restored and extended on its 3642 sqm Hunters Hill block - was sold by Christie’s International.
Vailele has eight bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a study, an elegant music room. 
There's an entire floor dedicated to high-tech entertaining, including a home theatre.
Its heritage billiard room comes with cedar-panelled walls, domed ceiling and a bar.
It comes with a 10 car garage at the cul-de-sac location, a 3084 sq m estate on the corner of Gale Street and The Point Road.
With climbing roses, lavender, frangipanis and a vegetable patch, the grounds come with an infinity pool and spa, with lit terraces, verandahs, and a gazebo.

The National Australian Bank has tipped a halving of house price growth in the nation's major capitals because of rising rates, tougher regulation and falling affordability.
Other factors contributing to the scenario include slow wages growth, falling overseas demand, record low rental yields and a big increase in apartment supply in some cities.
House prices are expected to grow by about 4.3 percent next year, which is less than half the current rate in four of the nation's capital cities.
Apartment values are expected to go into reverse dropping 0.4 percent, according to the bank's analysis.
The report follows research by ANZ earlier this month saying housing price growth would slow to 4.4 percent this calendar year down from 10.9 percent last year.
The NAB report, being circulated among mortgage brokers, claims property is "more resilient than expected", led by strong growth in Sydney and Melbourne shrugging off concerns about apartment over-supply.
House prices across the nation are expected to grow by 7.2 percent with apartments by 6.8 percent for the remainder of 2017.
"Ongoing strength in housing demand is expected to help offset supply concerns, although policy responses are creating additional uncertainty," the report says.
"On a more positive note, population growth is expected to remain solid, especially in Victoria, helping to drive underlying demand and soak-up some of the feared excess in supply," it says.
The NAB has increased its price projections for Sydney for the remainder of the year from 4.5 percent to 10.5 percent.
"Price forecasts have been revised higher, but risks still linger," the report says of the Sydney market.
It has also revised growth for Melbourne from 5.6 percent to 10.8 percent for this year before slipping to 5.5 percent next year.
"Melbourne is performing well, although over-supply concerns drive a wedge between house and unit prices. This divergence is expected to continue," the report concludes according to the Australian Financial Review article.
Brisbane's apartment sector will continue to under-perform but overall growth is "relatively steady", the report states.
House prices are expected to increase by 1 percent and 2 percent next year. Apartment prices are likely to fall by up to 2 percent this year and next.
Adelaide is steady, despite low economic growth and high unemployment. Adelaide house prices are expected to grow about 2 percent this year and 1.7 percent in 2018.
Perth's apartment and house prices are expected to continue fall by up to 6 percent during the remainder of the year.
"Tentative signs that both the local economy and property market may stabilise in the medium term suggest we could see flat-to-modestly higher prices from 2018," the report states.
Prices in Hobart have been accelerating because of an improving economy and affordability.
"Further gains are expected, but at a slower rate," the report concludes. House prices in the Tasmanian capital are expected to grow by about 7 percent this year and slow to 1.7 percent next. Unit prices are also expected to slow.

NAB forecasts price growth to halve in 2018

The acclaimed fashion designer Alannah Hill secured the sale of her chic white washed St Kilda West terrace which went to weekend auction.
The turn of the century Boom Style Victorian home drew just the one bidder, with the <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-vic-st+kilda+west-125546586" target="_blank">Mary Street three bedroom house</a> passed in at $2.325 million.
But Marshall White agents Adrian Wood and Michael Paproth sold it for an undisclosed higher price soon after.
Hill had paid $1,905,000 in 2013 then renovated the house in her signature style, draping it in marble, plenty of pink and chandeliers.
She was reluctantly selling because it was too big for her and her son.
Alannah took to Facebook to express her delight.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2017/06/19/Alannah.jpg" alt="">
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property/49-lisson-gr-hawthorn-vic-3122" target="_blank">A $7.65 million sale of a heritage home in Hawthorn</a> was the nation's top weekend auction result, on a weekend when Melbourne cemented its dominance over Sydney.
The four bedroom singe storey Lisson Grove had last sold 20 years ago at $1,225,250, reflecting close to 10 percent annual price appreciation.
There were extensive renovations in 2010 at the 1700 sq m property which came with tennis court.
After an opening bid of $6 million, there were the five bidders who took the offers to an on-the-market $6.7 million.
There had been seven bidders at its 1997 auction but only two were prepared to pay beyond $1.1 million.
Across Australia auction volumes rise to 2,407 returning an initial clearance rate of 69.6 per cent.
It is the third week in a row now where the combined capital city clearance rate has trended below 70 percent.
At the same time last year, auction volumes were lower than this week, with 2,183 properties taken to auction and a clearance rate of 67.4 percent.
The long weekend final clearance rate sat at 67.8 percent, recording the lowest clearance rate year to date, across the reduced holiday weekend 1,279 capital city auctions volume.
Sydney’s preliminary auction clearance rate was 72.4 percent this week, an improvement in the rate after last week’s final result saw the clearance rate drop to 67.7 percent.
"However as more results are collected it’s likely Sydney’s final clearance rate will again slip below the 70 percent mark," Kevin Brogan, the CoreLogic auction analyst said.
One year ago results show that 73.4 percent of Sydney homes taken to auction were successful, he noted.
Sydney's volumes were higher, up to 906 from 619 last week and one year ago when 768 Sydney homes were taken to auction.
The Eastern Suburbs sub-region of Sydney has shown the strongest performance so far this week, with 85 per cent of the 60 reported results selling including a $6 million South Coogee home, which sold for $2 million above reserve at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property/2-denning-st-south-coogee-nsw-2034" target="_blank">2 Denning Street</a>. 
Melbourne’s auction results have also moderated, however the clearance rates remain well above 70 percent, "indicating some resilience in selling conditions relative to Sydney," CoreLogic's Kevin Brogan said.
Melbourne's preliminary auction clearance rate of 72.2 percent across 1,121 weekend auction included the nation's cheapest when $195,000 was paid for a one bedroom West Footscray flat.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-vic-west+footscray-125522966" target="_blank">The 16/7-9 Hatfield Court unit</a> offered through Biggin &amp; Scott last sold at $38,000 in 1997.
Last week, Melbourne’s final clearance rate was recorded at 75.9 percent across 389 auctions.
This time last year, 1,085 properties were taken to auction across Melbourne and a clearance rate of 68.3 percent was recorded.
Sales included The Seekers’ manager Graham Simpson and his writer wife Jacqui selling their Hampton home of 15 years for $2.1 million.
<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-vic-hampton-125529654" target="_blank">The Wave Street, Hampton 1911 Edwardian offering</a> had three bidders who took the sale price<a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-house-vic-hampton-125529654"> </a>$80,000 past reserve.
It last sold at $786,000 in 2002.
There were 150 Brisbane homes taken to auction this week, with a preliminary clearance rate of 49 per cent, down from 52.2 per cent last week but higher than one year ago, when 45.1 per cent of the 120 properties taken to auction were successful.
Brisbane's top sale was when $2.5 million was paid by southerners for <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-qld-yeronga-125496342" target="_blank">71 Ormadale Rd, Yeronga</a>.
The architecturally designed contemporary home was set on a riverfront 959 sqm lot.
The buyers, Paul and Dawn Burgoyne had spent the past three weeks looking for a Brisbane base, seeking out Brisbane's forgiving cold season.
“Brisbane winters are just the best, so the plan is to basically run two homes — six month of the year up here and six months back home in Melbourne,” Mr Burgoine told The Courier Mail.

Two-time AFL North Melbourne premiership player Anthony Stevens has joined Elders Real Estate as a rural estate agent.
He played 279 games for North Melbourne in a 16-year career that included winning premierships in 1996 and 1999. 
He has been appointed as a real estate executive for Victoria and the Riverina region.
His first two listings are in Shepparton and Nagambie.
"I'm making a long-term commitment to my new career and hope to be doing this for the next 20 years or more," he told Fairfax Media.
"I'll look to build on my relationships in the footy world and the corporate world, but I don't expect things to just fall in my lap."
Stevens grew up on his parent's dairy farm near Waaia in rural Victoria and moved to Melbourne when he was 17 to play football.
He owns a 120-hectare cattle farm with his father near Benalla where he breeds Limousin, a French breed and Angus cows.
After retiring from football, he established regional events business Stride in 2007, based in Echuca and Bendigo and more recently he returned to the Kangaroos in a business development role.

Sydney's Fairlight among top 10 quickest selling suburbs

<html><body>
Montagu Bay is the fastest locality for houses over the past year, according to CoreLogic’s latest report.
The property data firm for units South Penrith and Wyoming sells the fastest.
Low interest rates coupled with higher levels of demand for housing has seen property sales in some areas take off faster than in others.
CoreLogic research analyst Cameron Kusher said that given mortgage rates have fallen over recent years, certain cities, namely Sydney and Melbourne, have seen heightened demand and a rapid rate of sale for properties.
(Note - today’s analysis only calculates where there were at least 10 observations of paired listings and subsequent sales over the year and is calculated on private sales excluding properties advertised for auction due to the selling time for an auction is often better described as a marketing period that typically lasts for around six weeks.
The figure is calculated by the difference from the date at which a property is first listed compared to its contract date).
Montagu Bay in Hobart now has the shortest median days on market for houses over the past year at 5 days.
For units, South Penrith and Wyoming in Sydney has the shortest median days on the market at 7 days.
The most obvious trend is that the majority of suburbs listed are within capital cities. This is generally the case across each state and territory.
The CoreLogic analysis highlights that housing market conditions are generally stronger in the capital cities than they are in regional areas.
Mr Kusher said, “In most instances, the suburbs that are not in capital cities are located in regions close to the capital city, highlighting how housing demand has rippled outwards from the capital cities as prices rise.”
Although Sydney and Melbourne have grabbed the headlines over recent years for their comparatively strong rates of capital growth, in other capital cities there are suburbs experiencing a very rapid rate of sale.
For example, Brisbane values have increased by less than 5% over the past year but each of the suburbs listed for houses have a median days on market figure of less than 20 days.
Mr Kusher said, “With mortgage rates and the number of properties available for sale remaining low we would anticipate that the current rapid rate of sale in Sydney, Melbourne, Hobart and Canberra will remain low, however there have been some early signs that stock levels are starting to rise which may lead to an easing in the perceived urgency to buy across some markets.
“Outside of these areas, suburbs in sought after locations with relatively low stock available for sale are also likely to see transactions occurring at a fairly rapid pace, especially if vendors ensure that they are setting realistic initial listing prices.”
A three bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-unit-nsw-wyoming-125219030" target="_blank">11/12-20 Kinarra Avenue</a>, Wyoming (above) was sold in April this year for $428,000.
Similarly a two bedroom unit at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/sold/property-apartment-nsw-wyoming-123534226" target="_blank">63 Jarrah Drive</a>, Wyoming (below) was sold in March this year for $215,000.

Kensington among the fastest selling Melbourne suburbs

A trio of Queensland property groups have unveiled plans for a $300 million mixed-use redevelopment of the former Noosa Bowls Club site, a proposal that would deliver more than 200 new homes in one of the Sunshine Coast's most supply-constrained markets.

Kilter Property, Frank Developments and Calile Malouf Investments are behind the plans for the 1.8-hectare site at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/99-noosa-drive-noosa-heads-qld-4567">99 Noosa Drive</a>, which would transform the long-vacant site into a new residential precinct featuring 208 apartments, retail, hospitality and public space.

The proposal comes as Noosa continues to grapple with housing affordability and a shortage of permanent accommodation, particularly for key workers. The site's location in Noosa Junction, close to shops, public transport and employment, aligns with the direction of Noosa Council's Housing Strategy, which encourages higher-density housing within established activity centres rather than continued urban expansion.

The draft plans include 48 affordable-by-design apartments and 48 rooming accommodation units aimed at key workers. Around 2,000 sqm of ground-floor retail and food and beverage space would activate the street frontage, alongside a new public town square and landscaped open space.

<img alt="Noosa" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2dd02f53-1360-4e51-801e-bfd61a6c980e" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-06-26%20at%208.44.34%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=x1iNs3BSMN6Jy7YUwaBZMHRrrKX2hMpy" />

&nbsp;

Frank Developments Founder and Director Frank Licastro said the development would continue the company's focus on architecturally-led residential projects while addressing one of the region's biggest challenges.

"Not only will this project exude a sense of luxury, it will also enhance not only the built environment but also the surrounding community," Licastro said.

"Noosa's success relies on the people who live and work here. Providing well-designed accommodation for key workers is critical to supporting the local economy and ensuring the Shire can continue to thrive."

Kilter Property Co-Founder Huw Williams said the focus was on delivering additional permanent housing while creating a mixed-use destination that benefits both residents and the wider community.

"Our focus is on delivering a well-considered mixed-use project that provides more permanent housing options, supports local workers and businesses, and delivers an exceptional product for the local market," Williams said.

"The redevelopment vision aligns with the long-term evolution of Noosa Junction as a vibrant activity centre, creating a destination that enhances the area's character while delivering significant economic and community benefits."

Calile Malouf Investments, best known for its role in Brisbane's James Street precinct and The Calile Hotel, will bring its place-making experience to the project. The company recently commenced construction on The Calile Noosa hotel and says the residential development will complement its growing investment in the region.

CMI Director Cal Malouf said the aim was to create a walkable precinct combining housing, retail and hospitality while remaining true to Noosa's character.

"We see a similar opportunity in Noosa to deliver a vibrant, walkable destination that combines exceptional housing, hospitality and retail in one integrated project," Malouf said.

Brisbane-based Cavill Architects has been appointed to design the project.

Noosa Bowls Club to be redeveloped into mixed-use apartment precinct

One of Brisbane's last major riverfront redevelopment opportunities has taken a significant step forward, with Lendlease selected as the Queensland Government's preferred development partner for the former Visy site in South Brisbane.

The seven-hectare industrial site, positioned between South Bank and West End and 1.3 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, will be transformed into a mixed-use precinct expected to deliver more than 4,000 new homes alongside extensive public open space and riverfront parkland.

The project is one of the largest urban renewal opportunities currently planned in Brisbane and is expected to play a key role in accommodating the city's growing population ahead of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Plans for the precinct include a network of riverfront promenades and boardwalks, new public plazas, parkland, amphitheatre-style gathering spaces and shared pedestrian and cycling links designed to reconnect the long-isolated site with the Brisbane River.

The Queensland Government is targeting delivery of the first homes and key public spaces before the 2032 Games, allowing the precinct to begin contributing new housing and public amenity well before the broader masterplan is complete.

The redevelopment is also expected to support more than 3,000 jobs across planning, construction and ongoing operations.

For Lendlease, the appointment adds another major urban regeneration project to its Queensland portfolio. The developer has operated in the state for more than 70 years and has delivered a number of large-scale mixed-use precincts in partnership with government.

Lendlease Development CEO Claire Johnston said the project represented one of Brisbane's most significant redevelopment opportunities.

"The transformation of the former Visy site represents a rare opportunity to reimagine one of Brisbane's most significant riverfront locations, deliver thousands of much-needed homes, and create long-term legacy," Johnston said.

"In partnership with the Queensland Government, we have the opportunity to create a new riverside destination that will help shape Brisbane's growth and how people experience the city for decades to come.

"This is exactly the type of large-scale, city-shaping development that will provide lasting benefits for Queensland, bringing together housing, jobs and world-class public spaces."

Deputy Premier and Minister for State Development, Infrastructure and Planning Jarrod Bleijie said the riverfront transformation would deliver a thriving new community precinct.

“The Crisafulli Government is delivering this golden opportunity to unlock a riverfront jewel for all Queenslanders,” Deputy Premier Bleijie said.

“This is a once-in-a-generation moment to reshape a significant slice of Brisbane and deliver lasting benefits – thousands of new homes, and public spaces for all Queenslanders to enjoy well beyond the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games – unlike Labor’s plan which would have delivered zero benefits and zero new homes.

“Queensland is well and truly open for business and through partnership with the private sector, we are accelerating delivery while ensuring strong housing, community and economic outcomes."

Early works on the precinct are expected to commence in April 2027.

Lendlease selected to deliver transformative South Brisbane riverfront precinct

Eddy Haddad's <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/level-33">Level 33</a> is levelling up its approved Wollongong development, as the coastal city south of Sydney continues to prove popular in the high-density development space.

Level 33, a longtime developer in the Wollongong area, has gone through the NSW Government's Housing Delivery Authority to upsize its approved two-tower development on the corner of Crown Street and Gladstone Avenue, just 100 metres from Wollongong Station.

The developer currently has approval for 252 apartments across two buildings rising to 19 storeys. It is now seeking approval for 33 and 38-storey towers that would deliver 467 apartments, including 67 affordable homes.

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bka-architecture">BKA Architecture</a>, the development would comprise apartments above a three-level podium with around 1,100 sqm of retail space, along with basement parking for 448 vehicles.

According to the Urban Design Report by BKA, the proposal has the capacity to "reinforce the precinct's identity by strengthening links between health, education, and transport services, while also contributing to Wollongong's ongoing evolution as a key regional centre."

Wollongong is somewhat in vogue. Between Level 33 and Urban Property Group, the two developers have several thousand apartments planned across the city.

Level 33 is currently delivering Easterly Wollongong, one of its most boutique projects to date with just 21 high-end apartments, as well as Atchison &amp; Kenny, a 329-apartment development due for completion later this year.

The developer plans to redevelop the 13,088 sqm WIN Grand megasite into <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/crown-square-216-238-keira-street-wollongong-nsw-2500">Crown Square</a>, a new $500 million precinct with nearly 600 apartments. It also has more than 900 apartments planned for the former Bunnings Warehouse site at the intersection of Gipps and Flinders streets.

Urban Property Group is also playing a major role in the city's transformation. Its five-tower Keira Place precinct will deliver more than 800 homes, and it has recently lodged plans for a further 300 apartments near Wollongong Station.

First look: Level 33 upsizes Wollongong apartment towers

Just a week after filing plans for the final stage of its major Keira Place masterplan, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a> has unveiled another significant housing proposal in Wollongong, this time targeting a prominent site opposite North Wollongong Station.

The developer has lodged a State Significant Development Application for a 38-storey mixed-use tower at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/4-4a-flinders-street-north-wollongong-nsw-2500">4-4A Flinders Street</a>, around one kilometre north of the <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/keira-place-wollongong-120-122-smith-street-wollongong-nsw-2500">Keira Place precinct</a> currently taking shape on the edge of the CBD.

<img alt="First look: Urban Property Group plans 38-storey North Wollongong tower as Keira Place expansion gathers pace" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2b6428f1-6405-4038-8476-897de440e90d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/flinders%20podium.png?VersionId=QLqEvK0OuCEwRC47oHNftrw2B1YqaHF8" />

Designed by Studio.SC, the proposal comprises a 38-storey mixed-use development containing 303 apartments, including 45 affordable housing units, alongside 174 co-living residences. The scheme also includes ground-floor retail space, extensive landscaping and public domain improvements.

Studio.SC noted in the proposal it "outlines a vision for a landmark transit-oriented mixed-use development centred around North Wollongong Station, designed to support the city’s future growth while responding to the NSW Government’s housing and planning reforms."

The architecture firm said the proposal responds to the opportunities and constraints shaping future growth within the 400-metre catchment of the station and represents "a coordinated and future-focused approach to urban intensification, contributing to the long-term evolution of North Wollongong as a connected, walkable and high-density station precinct."

The site occupies a strategic corner bounded by Flinders Street, Station Street, Stafford Street and the Princes Highway, directly opposite North Wollongong Station.

The proposal follows Urban Property Group's recent submission for the second and final stage of Keira Place, which would deliver a further three buildings comprising 657 homes opposite Beaton Park. It builds on the first stage, which features 150 apartments across two towers and recently commenced construction.

Urban Property Group CEO Patrick Elias said breaking ground on the first stage marked a significant milestone for Wollongong and reflected the developer's long-term commitment to regional cities.

"Today's groundbreaking is about turning approvals into homes and moving quickly to deliver much-needed housing in Wollongong's city centre," Elias said.

"Keira Place will provide a diverse mix of homes close to jobs, transport and services, while setting a high benchmark for quality, durability and consumer protection."

First look: Urban Property Group plans next major Wollongong tower

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/arada">Arada Australia</a> has wasted little time expanding its ambitions in Campsie, lodging plans for a second major project in the rapidly transforming town centre just months after unveiling its three-tower One Campsie proposal on Beamish Street.

The UAE-backed developer has now taken aim at one of the suburb’s most strategically positioned sites, filing a State Significant Development Application for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/10-north-parade-campsie-nsw-2194">33-storey mixed-use tower</a> at 10 London Street and 43 North Parade, directly opposite the future Campsie Metro Station. The proposal is currently on public exhibition and represents another significant vote of confidence in Campsie's emergence as one of Sydney’s key transit-oriented growth centres.

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, the development would deliver 156 apartments above a podium containing retail and commercial space, creating a new residential and commercial gateway to the town centre. The scheme also includes a four-level above-ground parking podium and a dedicated residential amenity floor featuring wellness and recreation facilities. At least 10 per cent of the apartments would be allocated as affordable housing for a period of 10 years.

The proposal occupies a 1,631 sqm site bounded by London Street, North Parade and Dispensary Lane, immediately adjoining the future Metro station precinct and just metres from Beamish Street’s retail and dining strip. According to the Urban Design Report, the project seeks to deliver "a great place that prioritises human-scaled experience and provides spatial improvements to the area."

<img alt="First look: Arada doubles down in Campsie with 33-storey Metro-front tower plans" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="175a8324-015b-4856-abe3-ce6f23199fa7" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/podium%20campsie.png?VersionId=742UGwXFhFBX4GEl6wX4PYIWREAgn6il" />

Woods Bagot describes the tower as a key marker within Campsie's next phase of growth.

"Located directly opposite the new Campsie Metro Station on North Parade, 10 London Street is a thoughtfully composed 33-storey mixed-use tower that contributes to the ongoing transformation of the town centre," the Architectural Design Report states. The report says the project is intended to provide "high-quality homes within a vibrant, connected urban environment, while helping define Campsie's future skyline."

A strong emphasis has been placed on the public realm. The ground floor incorporates over 500 sqm of retail space and active frontages along both London Street and North Parade, while the podium is wrapped by extensive landscaped planting intended to soften the building's scale and strengthen the pedestrian experience. The development would also widen surrounding footpaths and improve connections between the Metro station and the broader town centre.

Above the podium, residents would have access to more than 1,400 sqm of communal amenities, including a pool, gym and landscaped recreation spaces. A distinctive green-wall treatment extending across four podium levels forms a major architectural feature, helping differentiate the project within the emerging high-density precinct.

The tower's design is closely tied to the broader Campsie Town Centre Master Plan and the arrival of Sydney Metro. The Urban Design Report notes the proposal "directly supports the Campsie Town Centre Master Plan by delivering new homes in a location explicitly identified for growth, improved accessibility, and high-quality urban renewal." It adds that the project contributes to the master plan's vision for a strengthened town centre supported by thousands of new homes around the future Metro station.

The application follows Arada Australia's recently lodged One Campsie project at 124–142 Beamish Street and 16–18 Ninth Avenue, where the developer is seeking approval for 346 apartments across three towers rising 24, 32 and 39 storeys. Together, the two proposals would cement Arada Australia as one of the most influential developers shaping Campsie's future urban form.

Arada Australia entered the Australian market in 2024 and has rapidly assembled a significant development pipeline across Sydney. Alongside its Campsie holdings, the developer is soon to launch <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/wattle-green-2-fishburn-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Wattle Green</a> in Castle Hill, and has expanded its local operations following its acquisition of construction firm Roberts &amp; Co.

Located around 14 kilometres south-west of the Sydney CBD, the site sits at the centre of one of Sydney's fastest-changing middle-ring precincts. The Metro conversion of Campsie Station, combined with Canterbury-Bankstown Council's master planning framework, is driving significant residential intensification around Beamish Street and North Parade, with thousands of new homes expected over coming decades.
