Exclusive: DASCO expands Sydney apartment pipeline with trio of St Leonards buildings
Builder-developer Dasco is continuing to expand its development pipeline, unveiling plans for its third project in Sydney.
The company has secured a prime 5,874 sqm site in the St Leonards South precinct, spanning 14–16 Marshall Avenue, 5–9 Holdsworth Avenue, and 2–10 Berry Street. The site will host three new buildings, delivering 231 new residences.
Each tower will rise 14 storeys and feature a mix of apartments, double-storey townhomes, and penthouses. The inclusion of affordable housing in the development has triggered a height uplift from the previously approved 10 storeys to 14.
Dasco is already familiar with the area, as it is currently delivering The Newlands by Eterno, just down the road, alongside Elation by New Golden.
“This milestone reflects our continued commitment to shaping vibrant communities and delivering enduring places to call home,” Dasco said in its announcement, adding that it will once again partner with Metrics.
Dasco and Metrics are also collaborating on the recently launched Senso in Epping, a landscape-focused precinct comprising 479 apartments across five buildings, the first of its kind in the suburb.
Dasco’s other active project, Danks St District, is similarly transforming its local area. It will include six new residential buildings with around 373 apartments. Both current projects are backed by a 10-year Latent Defects Insurance policy from Resilience Insurance.
