Inside Prime Edition's rare Clifton Hill apartment development, 33 Queens Pde

Clifton Hill's tightly held property market has seen little new development in recent years, with apartments making up just 25 per cent of the suburb’s housing stock. 

33 Queens Pde stands out as the first major residential project in the region in years.

Situated between two major green spaces, Edinburgh Gardens to the west and Darling Gardens to the east, 33 Queens Pde will introduce 32 residences to the area, including two and three-bedroom apartments, six townhouses, and two luxury penthouses. 

The project is being developed by Prime Edition, a boutique developer with a track record of delivering quality homes in premium Melbourne suburbs, including Toorak, South Yarra, and Surrey Hills.

Designed by award-winning architecture firm Cera Stribley, the development emphasises light-filled, open-plan living spaces. 

Floor-to-ceiling windows maximise natural light across all apartments, while each home is designed to connect seamlessly with private outdoor spaces, whether a balcony, courtyard, or rooftop terrace.

Kitchens are fitted with Miele appliances, natural stone benchtops and splashbacks, timber laminate cabinetry, and custom shelving. The master bedrooms feature walk-in robes and en-suites, and additional bedrooms are generously sized with their bathrooms.

Beyond the individual apartments, residents at 33 Queens Pde will have access to a communal landscape with an open-air atrium, along with modern facilities such as rainwater harvesting, smart parcel lockers, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, bike storage with a repair station, and pet-washing facilities. 

Situated between Edinburgh Gardens and Darling Gardens, residents are also perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Clifton Hill’s green spaces.

The area is well-served by public transport, with easy access to the tram on Route 86, connecting to key destinations like Fitzroy, Northcote, and the Melbourne CBD. Clifton Hill Station is just 700 meters away, providing a quick commute into the city.

The location also puts residents on Queens Parade, the main retail strip in Clifton Hill, so residents are walking distance to groceries, cafes, restaurants, medical and recreational opportunities. The vibrant café and retail precincts of Smith Street and Brunswick Street are also nearby.

Additionally, the development is conveniently located near educational institutions, with Collingwood College and Fitzroy High School within easy reach.

Demolition of the former commercial building on the prime 1,540 sqm Queens Parade site will commence shortly, with construction starting shortly after.
