Urban Property Group reveals first stage of Chapter Place, 1,900 new homes in Edmondson Park
Urban Property Group has kicked off construction at its new Edmondson Park masterplan, Chapter Place, a mixed0use residential and retail precinct that will bring up to 1,900 new homes to Sydney's thriving south west.
The ground was broken for the first 43, three-level terraces in the development, which will be completed within 12 months.
It is the first of Chapter Place’s five sites to be developed across 51,634 sqm. Located just 800 metres from Edmondson Park Station, an estimated 4,700 residents will call the $1.5 billion development home by mid-2030.
Urban CEO Patrick Elias said the precinct marked a new chapter in high-quality residential development for the region.
“This is the first step in creating an innovative, sustainable and welcoming community, offering a mix of well-connected homes that bring smart, practical living to Sydney’s South West,” Elias said.
“Chapter Place will support community growth and connection, contributing to the urgently needed local housing supply with beautifully designed, high amenity housing and shared open spaces.
“Importantly, the development will also include 272 designated affordable homes for essential workers.”
Liverpool Mayor Ned Mannoun welcomed the new development in the booming South West.
“Chapter Place is a wonderful new addition for Edmondson Park – an area that’s attracting residents drawn to its open green spaces, public transport, schools and thriving job market due to the construction of Western Sydney Airport and nearby Bradfield City," Mannoun said.
“This project will create another 5,200 new jobs over the next five years, which is another terrific boost for southwest Sydney residents.”
The site was acquired in 2021 from Landcom, the New South Wales Government's land and property development organisation.
Chapter Place showcases a range of innovative sustainability initiatives. In collaboration with Austral Bricks, Urban has created a custom brick produced just 22 kilometres from the site and incorporating 21 per cent recycled content. Carbon-neutral bricks will be used throughout the construction of Chapter Place apartments, reflecting a strong commitment to environmentally responsible design.
Other sustainability features include energy-efficient, fully electric appliances with maximum Energy Star ratings and solar battery storage to meet household operational energy needs.
Chapter Place follows Urban’s delivery of The Halston at North Strathfield, the first residential project to be completed under the NSW Government’s new affordable housing policy, which opened in June this year.
John Brogden, Chair of Urban’s Advisory Board, said the property marked another milestone in development for the Sydney market.
“This family-owned and run business is delivering a range of innovative and diverse housing choices that respond to changing needs and market demographics, especially in areas of high growth like Western Sydney.
“Chapter Place is another example of high-quality development that creates not just homes but thriving local communities.”
The first stage of 43 terrace homes, designed by Cox Architecture, is scheduled for completion in mid-2026. Construction on the second stage - comprising 63 terrace homes also designed by Cox - is set to commence in October, with completion expected by April 2027.
