First look: Urban Property Group plans 15-building precinct near Edmondson Park Station with over 1,800 apartments
Urban Property Group is advancing a major residential and mixed-use development in Edmondson Park, with plans for 15 buildings delivering more than 1,800 apartments in one of Sydney’s fastest-growing transport-oriented precincts.
The development application covers a consolidated 3.2-hectare landholding across Buchan Avenue, within walking distance of Edmondson Park Station and adjacent to the future high school site.
The 15 buildings will range in size, from around four to 40 storeys. They will deliver around 1,827 apartments, at a minimum. Some of the apartments might be designated build-to-rent, and some co-living and affordable housing.
The largest of the three parcels, Site 5, will accommodate 871 apartments along with the full retail offering. Site 3 will house 552 apartments and Site 4, 404.
Development around Edmondson Park Station has been under consideration since 2010, when Landcom lodged a concept plan for the Edmondson Park South Precinct. The plan included 3,530 dwellings and a new town centre.
UPG later acquired five sites from Landcom. Two of these sites, which are not part of the current application, are located opposite Site Three. They have approval for 178, three-level townhouses.
The location’s proximity to key infrastructure—particularly the train station and Ed.Square Town Centre—has positioned Edmondson Park as a critical node in the Western Parkland City’s long-term housing strategy. Its dual frontages and adjacency to education and retail amenities further enhance its potential as a high-density urban hub.
Urban’s latest plans reflect growing momentum in higher-density development across south-west Sydney, with increasing buyer and investor interest in well-connected precincts that integrate transport, retail, and community infrastructure.
