In the heart of Geelong's revolution: How Ryrie Home takes advantage of its central location

Melbourne's inner-city suburb Caulfield is best known for its famed racecourse, which has served punters since opening its door way back in 1876.

But the area, south-east of the city, is officially split up into four separate suburbs, <a href="/developments/caulfield-vic-3162">Caulfield</a>, <a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a>, Caulfield South, and Caulfield East. No Caulfield West unusually.

There's no obvious point in time when or why it was decided Caulfield would have a number of different suburbs, rather just the changing of planning and urban development in Melbourne over the last two centuries has seen it so.

The track, home to the Caulfield Cup, one of the biggest Group I races on the calendar, is located in Caulfield East, which is the least populated suburb of the Caulfield's due to the size of the suburb, and the fact the racecourse covers nearly two thirds of the whole suburb. The Caulfield train station also sits in Caulfield East, as does Monash University Caulfield Campus.

<a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> is the largest suburb at 4.2 square kilometres, with over 16,000 calling it home. <a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> has Hawthorn Road dissecting it, bringing both connectivity through public transport and amenity. Caulfield Park and playground draws families to the suburb. Over 50 per cent of the population have at least one child, according to the latest ABS census data.&nbsp;

<img alt="Caulfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="bee3085b-73ea-4290-9475-86387d6cd568" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-10%20at%209.48.13%20am.png?VersionId=GAKgPhe0WAgCkhkxs1FHzxvdpzbPJg.D" />

Caulfield has the biggest split of apartments in the dwelling count, nearly 40 per cent of the suburb.

Only 20 per cent of <a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> is apartments. Caulfield and <a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a> is split by&nbsp;Glen Eira Road. Hawthorn Road continues to run through the suburb, where there's also the Caulfield Hospital. Caulfield has just under 6,000 residents.

Caulfield South has over 12,000 residents. It has the least number of apartments, just 14 per cent of the suburb. It is also the most dominated by families, namely due to the Caulfield South Primary School and the popular Princes Park.

The domination of family homes across the <a href="/developments/caulfield-vic-3162">Caulfield</a> suburbs has proven difficult for developers to acquire land to create an apartment building.

Some developers have managed it however, and are reaping rewards as they're bringing something to the suburbs which don't often see too much in the way of new development.

We've wrapped up the top three apartment developments for sale in Caulfield, <a href="/developments/caulfield-north-vic-3161">Caulfield North</a>, Caulfield South in November 2023.

Caulfield, Caulfield North or Caulfield South: Where should I live?

Wattletree and Dorman Capital’s newest development is bringing something completely different to what South Yarra has seen in recent years, on one of the sought-after suburbs last remaining riverside sites.

Firstly, the $190 million project presents itself as a high-rise building at 20 levels, considerably lower than some of the towers dotted in central South Yarra, but higher than the compact low-rises on the fringes of the suburb. However there's only 58 apartments in the building designed by SJB. It's owner-occupier focused on a grand scale.

Because of the size of the building, Wattletree were able to provide amenity as if it was a true high-rise tower. There's a rooftop with a&nbsp;swimming pool, alfresco dining space with a barbecue kitchen, and an indoor dining area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112970 project_image_fid=214717]

The second major point of difference compared to other towers is the location. It's quietly tucked away off the busy Chapel Street, offering the prospect of being near the activity without being disturbed by it. Chapel Street is one of Melbourne's coolest strips, lined with bars, restaurants and cafes.

It's also got the outlook back to Melbourne from a number of the apartments as well as the roof. The views aren't only on offer from the higher apartments, due to the fact the site sits in front of the protected&nbsp;Melbourne High School's football ground, so views can't be built out.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112970 project_image_fid=214702]

The address is well connected, with South Yarra Station just a five-minute walk, while nature is abundant with the Yarra River on the doorstep and the expanse of Fawkner Park and the Royal Botanic Gardens a short walk down Toorak Road or the riverfront Alexandra Avenue.

Families have shown interest in the project due to the proximity to a number of child friendly recreational activities and educational institutions.

There's five university campus's within two kilometres, five high schools in just over a kilometre, and five primary schools in under 900 metres. Christ Church Grammar School is one of the best primary schools in the state, while Melbourne High School is one of the best public schools.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112970 project_image_fid=214708]

Of course, and potentially the biggest point of difference in South Yarra House, is the size of the apartments and the architecture.

SJB's vision was to&nbsp;pay homage to South Yarra's rich architectural heritage, with a brutalist-style facade making it stand out from surrounding buildings.

"South Yarra House takes subtle cues from its surrounds and the heritage buildings dotted throughout and blends it with a modernist sensibility to create an outcome of clarity, elegance and distinction," SJB said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112970 project_image_fid=214724]

SJB were inspired by&nbsp;South Yarra's iconic Art Deco and Spanish mission homes and apartment blocks, such as the Beverley Hills flats and 31 Marne St SJB's design concept merges a timeless New York tower aesthetic with these local references.

They worked hand in hand with interiors expert Hecker Guthrie, to design a building that will stand the test of time for both the streetscape and South Yarra, as well as its residents.

South Yarra House is slated for completed in late 2025.

How South Yarra House represents the rarest of opportunities in the inner-city suburb

Seldom will there be another opportunity to live within 300 metres from the heart of the Olympics.

That's what prominent <a href="/developments/woolloongabba-qld-4102">Woollangabba</a> developer <a href="/developers/sarazin">Sarazin</a> are offering with their latest project, <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia Residences</a>, a literal stones throw from the hallowed turf off The Gabba.&nbsp;

While technically sitting in <a href="/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a> as the boundaries of the suburbs is Wellington Road, for&nbsp;all intents and purposes, <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> is a <a href="/developments/woolloongabba-qld-4102">Woolloongabba</a> address.

The <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Overend Street project</a> and its 187 apartment residents will take advantage of every part of the billions of dollars worth of investment being thrown at the Olympic precinct by both government and private investors. The aim is to create a 24/7 precinct, which will live long after the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games has finished.

Earlier this year the Queensland and federal governments reached a $7 billion funding agreement to transform Brisbane's sporting and event venues ahead of the&nbsp;2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, which included a rebuild of The Gabba. Following the demolition, which started earlier this year, construction will start in 2026 and be complete in 2030. The Gabba will be the central hub of the Games, and will host the opening and closing ceremonies.

For those buying a north-facing apartment on an upper level, they'll be able to take in the Games from their balcony. Sarazin have long known the importance of rooftop amenity, particularly in this location, so they've created a viewing deck which will literally looks down into stadium.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135094 project_image_fid=214681]

Even before the overhaul of <a href="/developments/woolloongabba-qld-4102">Woolloongabba</a> and <a href="/developments/east-brisbane-qld-4169">East Brisbane</a>, Murcia sat in a fantastic pocket to enjoy the local dining precinct with the Italian&nbsp;1889 Enoteca and the fairy-lit courtyard garden of Canvas Club which servces cocktails and tapas.

<a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> is also just&nbsp;200 metres from the popular Logan Road, which is lined with heritage pubs, cafes and bars like whiskey bars Detour, set in a restored Sergeant Tyre factory, and Mrs J Rabbits.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135094 project_image_fid=214685]

Away from the convenience of entertaining, nature is also at the forefront of the location. Just the other side of The Gabba are the Kangaroo Point Cliffs, which has a river walk and cycle path which runs alongside the Brisbane River. Coming out of <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> and heading east, within 500 metres is <a href="/developments/woolloongabba-qld-4102">Woolloongabba</a> Rotary Park and Norman Creek, which is flanked by trees and greenery.

The project is also just&nbsp;two kilometres from the city, making it easily accessible by foot or bike. Well timed for <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia's</a> forecasted mid-2026 completion will be the new Cross River Rail, which is expected to be complete a year earlier. That will put residents just one stop to the new Queens Wharf precinct and two stops from Roma Street Station.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135094 project_image_fid=214684]

The current <a href="/developments/woolloongabba-qld-4102">Woolloongabba</a> Station is also a five-minute walk. Commuters only need to be on the train for 90 seconds before making it into the city.

Residents can go on a quick coffee run at Brown Dog Cafe just four minutes from <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a>, or The Baker's Arms bakery.

An eight-minute walk southeast of <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> is the retail, dining and entertainment precinct South/City/Sq. The precinct buzzes day and night, with a gym, yoga studio, art-house cinema complex, barber and beauty studio. Some restaurants and bars to check out around the precinct are Casa Chow, South City Wine, and Purple Palm.

<a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> is close to three major university campuses – UQ, QUT and Griffith South Bank – and within the catchment for Brisbane’s first new inner-south high school in more than 50 years.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135094 project_image_fid=214684]

Designed by HAL Architects, <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a> spans 18 levels and has a mix of one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments. All of the one-bedroom apartments have been snapped up.

The name and design of the project stems from the Spanish city <a href="/new-apartments/murcia-residences-east-brisbane-9-overend-street-east-brisbane">Murcia</a>. HAL were inspired by the Mediterranean style of the Spanish orchard city, blending the style with the best Antipodean subtropical design and cascading landscape.

Each apartment has been crafted to open to a covered balcony from the open plan living, kitchen and dining area. A number of the apartments include multi-purpose rooms and study nooks for future residents to decide what to do with.

While central to everything, <a href="/developers/sarazin">Sarazin</a> will also be providing even closer amenity, with new cafes on the ground level of the building. The second level will home a resident gym and bike repair workshop, while the rooftop will feature an infinity pool, private poolside cabanas and sun loungers, and a wellness area with cold and warm magnesium plunge pools, a sauna, steam room and outdoor showers, as well as alfresco private dining and barbecue facilities.&nbsp;
