Yarraville Green is a collection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments and townhomes on a quiet and leafy street, only moments from Yarraville Village. Designed around a lush central garden, the low-rise buildings create a quieter residential setting with a strong sense of community and focus on sustainable living. Located on tree-lined Stephen Street between Yarraville and Seddon, the project sits among a low-rise streetscape of Victorian, Edwardian homes as well as contemporary dwellings. Architecture by Six Degrees introduces multiple buildings arranged around the landscaped heart of the site, with car parking placed underground to favour people and green space. Ground level residences open directly to the garden, while upper-level homes benefit from wide setbacks, open-air corridors and landscaped lobbies that bring natural light, fresh air and greenery into everyday apartment living in Yarraville.<h3>Interiors designed for comfort, craft and calm</h3>Interiors at Yarraville Green are planned as welcoming, functional spaces with flowing layouts, generous living zones and good natural light. Engineered hardwood flooring to living areas is paired with a warm, neutral palette that allows residents to personalise their homes, while occasional colour highlights add character. Bedrooms feature soft wool carpet, with built-in or walk-in robes in selected residences and practical joinery to support storage. Kitchens include engineered stone benchtops, laminate joinery, a double-bowl undermounted sink and a suite of Smeg appliances: electric oven, gas cooktop, rangehood and integrated dishwasher. Bathrooms are well appointed with water-efficient fixtures, semi-frameless shower screens, white basins and toilet suites, generous storage and warm lighting. Artisan touches such as feature pendants by Ruth Allen, leadlight entry lighting and hand-turned timber door hardware introduce crafted detail throughout.<h3>Sustainable design supporting low-impact living</h3>Sustainability is a core focus at Yarraville Green, with the development targeting an average 7-star NatHERS energy rating. Many residences have been designed to encourage natural cross-flow ventilation and to draw on thermal mass, helping interiors stay comfortable while reducing reliance on mechanical heating and cooling. Double glazing and insulation further support energy efficiency, while rooftop solar panels contribute power for common areas. Harvested rainwater is collected and reused for garden irrigation, helping the central landscape thrive with lower mains water use. Everyday living is also supported by the walkable location, which places public transport, shopping and daily services within easy reach. Abundant bicycle parking across the project encourages residents to adopt low-carbon travel, reinforcing the commitment to quieter, more sustainable inner-west living.<h3>Walkable Yarraville lifestyle with village dining, parks and transport</h3>Yarraville Village is only 500 metres away, offering restaurants, cafés, bars, shopping and everyday services. Local parks and recreation spaces include Mappin Reserve, Bellairs Park, Yarraville Gardens, Greelish Oval dog off-leash area, Beaton Reserve and Anderson Reserve. The development is about 450 metres from Seddon Station and around 800 metres from Yarraville Station, placing residents four train stops from the city. Nearby venues and operators range from Wee Jeanie Coffee and Coracle Café to Luxsmith, Pizza d’Asporto, Station Hotel, Sun Theatre and Sun Bookshop, alongside supermarkets including Woolworths Metro, IGA and The Happy Apple.<h3>Award-winning team delivering Yarraville Green</h3>Yarraville Green is delivered by Excelon Projects, a Melbourne-based developer focused on residential projects shaped around specific lifestyles and contexts with a focus on sustainability. Excelon’s portfolio includes Lothian Street townhomes in North Melbourne, winner of the 2021 National Architecture Award for Residential – Multi-housing, and collaborations with Six Degrees such as Clyde Mews in Thornbury and 211 Sydney Road, Brunswick.

<ul><ul><li>Complete and ready to move in!</li>
	<li>Timeless interior design and spacious apartments.</li>
	<li>In the heart of Melbourne's most loved inner-city suburbs.</li>
</ul></ul>Designed by renowned local architects Kennedy Nolan, Lothian Street is a bold contribution to the burgeoning landscape of North Melbourne. Beautifully detailed, the robust exterior references the industrial history of inner-city Melbourne, while the interior celebrates the attention to detail that exemplifies timeless design.

The individual residences – six townhouses and two apartments – have been created to deliver an organic and authentic lifestyle, while providing the flexibility and spaciousness that modern living demands. The interior spaces are warm and generous, with opportunities to look out over the surrounding streets, while retaining privacy from the urban environment. Interior detailing has been enhanced by collaborations with various Australian designer-makers, to ensure that the handmade, bespoke quality of Lothian Street is reflected at all scales.

And at their front door, residents step out into Melbourne’s most-loved inner-city neighbourhoods, with cafes, parks, shopping, and, soon, a brand new underground railway station within easy walking distance.

The milestone marks a significant step forward for the 53-residence project, designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/six-degrees-architects">Six Degrees Architects</a> with landscape architecture by Simone Bliss Landscape Architects, conceived around a strong focus on community, craftsmanship and connection to nature.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/excelon-projects">Excelon Projects</a>’ vision brings together 41 one, two and three-bedroom apartments and 12 townhomes arranged around a central landscaped garden, prioritising liveability in a low-rise, low-density format.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144913 project_image_fid=297728]

Open-air corridors, a light-filled lobby and generous setbacks are intended to enhance day-to-day comfort while reinforcing the development’s community-oriented design approach.

Car parking has been located underground to prioritise shared green space and pedestrian movement through the site, allowing the landscaped garden to form the central organising element of the development.

Interiors incorporate custom pieces by Melbourne makers including leadlight pendants by Adadaz, hand-turned timber door handles by Auburn Woodturning, and blown-glass lighting by Ruth Allen, embedding a layer of local craftsmanship throughout the homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=144913 project_image_fid=297736]

Sustainability has also informed the design approach, with Yarraville Green targeting an average 7-star NatHERS energy rating. Passive design measures such as cross-ventilation and thermal mass aim to reduce reliance on mechanical heating and cooling, while rooftop solar panels will supply power to common areas and harvested rainwater will be reused for landscape irrigation.

Positioned along the quiet, tree-lined Stephen Street, Yarraville Green sits between Yarraville and Seddon villages, placing residents within walking distance of cafés, dining, boutique retail and the Sun Theatre.

Seddon Station is also a short walk away, ideal for residents seeking an inner-west address with strong amenity and transport connections.

Completion of Yarraville Green is anticipated in 2027.

Balmain & Co appointed builder as construction begins at Excelon Projects’ Yarraville Green

It's becoming more and more prevalent for developers to go to the 'green side' when creating new projects.&nbsp;

Excelon Projects has done just that with their new <a href="/developments/brunswick-vic-3056">Brunswick development</a>, Two Eleven Sydney Road, collaborating with Six Degrees Architects to create a sustainability-first project.

Two Eleven Sydney Road combines elements of <a href="/developments/brunswick-vic-3056">old Brunswick</a> with modern design principles, resulting in a fusion of old and new.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7872 project_image_fid=49400]

21 apartments sit atop a preserved low-rise heritage facade on Sydney Road.

Sustainability lies at the heart of Two Eleven Sydney Road, which is evident in every aspect of the development. From the careful selection of materials to the thoughtful design and orientation of interior spaces, every decision has been made with the environment in mind.

The building's commitment to sustainability is further reinforced by the inclusion of solar energy generation, water harvesting, and storage systems.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7872 project_image_fid=49401]

The building has been designed and engineered to achieve a 7.5-star NatHERS rating, indicating its superior performance in terms of thermal comfort and reduced energy consumption. This rating places Two Eleven Sydney Road among the most environmentally conscious residential developments in the area.

Open-air lanes have been incorporated throughout, along with walkways and a rooftop terrace, with the spaces designed to encourage social interaction among residents.&nbsp;

The location itself of the project also provides an ideal opportunity for residents to engage with the vibrant atmosphere of one of Melbourne's <a href="/developments/brunswick-vic-3056">most energetic inner-city suburbs</a>.

Two Eleven Sydney Road, which has just 21 apartments, is 75 per cent sold.&nbsp;

Sustainability takes centre stage at Brunswick's Two Eleven Sydney Road apartments 

The Lothian in North Melbourne, has won The Frederick Romberg Award for Residential Architecture &ndash; Multiple Housing.

Kennedy Nolan won the Australian Institute of Architects (AIA) award this week for the project which was completed in May this year by Excelon Projects.

It had already won the 2021 Victorian Architecture Awards for multiple housing, along with being an entrant in the top 40 Think Brick Awards 2021.

Set on an island site, the Lothian consists of four-storey townhouses with roof gardens and two stacked two-storey apartments, one with a roof garden.&nbsp;

The design was inspired by the attractive red brick edifices from the golden age of manufacturing found in the former working class suburb.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8257 project_image_fid=28387]

The judges noted The Lothian retains a sense of warehouse scale and dimensions, converting them into refined domestic use.&nbsp;

The exterior is concrete, brickwork, arched windows, oculus windows and playful tile work. The red pressed clay bricks came from Krause in Stawell.

The jury described this development as &ldquo;a robust, energy-efficient building that acts as a place of beauty and refuge for its inhabitants while offering an innovative alternative composition of a multi-residential building envelope&rdquo;.

Excelon Projects is a Melbourne-based property development company established in 2011 to create well-considered residential projects.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8257 project_image_fid=29556]

The 480 square metre site with two laneways and two street frontages replaced an office buildingat 102 Lothian Street.

Lothian has been described as a programmatic and formal hybrid in response to its island site.&nbsp;

The north-south orientation results in principal elevations to the east and west with deeply shaded fa&ccedil;ades to the west and the consideration of privacy to the east.&nbsp;

The southern dwellings are imagined as artist studios.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8257 project_image_fid=29552]

To the north, an apartment is suspended in the existing tree canopy, in a leafy eyrie with eccentric oriel windows.

There is a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment for sale through Belle Property agent Scott McElroy at $880,000.

It comes with interior design by artisans such as IN-TERIA, who designed the handmade timber door hardware, and the famous Cherry pendant light by DANIEL EMMA.

Slate flooring is featured throughout.

Lothian Street&#39;s location, being close to Errol Street in the heart of old North Melbourne, is marketed as the perfect urban village with a post office, supermarket, Town Hall - and the best of Melbourne&#39;s cafes and restaurants including Auction Rooms and Mork.

Plus the famous cake shop Beatrix just a 5-minute walk away.

Kelvin Taing, Director of Excelon said it had "been exciting to see this project come to life and is a testament to the vision of the architects.”

“The Lothian is a love project for Excelon.”

Set on an island site, the Lothian consists of four-storey townhouses with roof gardens and two stacked two-storey apartments, one with a roof garden.
