<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/draycon">Draycon Building</a> is nearing completion of Boutique Chevron Island, a 42-apartment development on the northern end of Chevron Island at 17–19 Parneno Street, with a limited-time offer of fully furnished apartments available.

Now more than 90 per cent complete, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/boutique-chevron-island-17-19-parneno-chevron-island-qld-4217">Boutique</a> has been shaped by one of the Gold Coast’s most tightly held island addresses, where riverfront outlooks and walkable access to Surfers Paradise converge.

For Draycon Building Managing Director Howard Dabit, the appeal of the site was immediate.

“I knew it was a good site as soon as I saw it,” Dabit said.

“The position and location on the north end of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/chevron-island-qld-4217">Chevron Island</a>, the way the river swirls around the site basically from the north to the east, it feels like the site is surrounded by the water. The height that we’ve got and the aspect looking north is beautiful. Eighty per cent of the apartments are looking north so they get that drenching sunlight coming in.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360922]

That northern orientation places the development within a stretch of Chevron Island defined by open river aspects and skyline views, while remaining embedded in the suburb’s established village setting.

Chevron Island has increasingly drawn owner-occupiers seeking centrality without the intensity of high-rise beachfront living. Positioned at the geographical centre of the Gold Coast, the island offers direct access to both the beach and key cultural infrastructure while retaining a neighbourhood-scale character.

Connected by bridge to Surfers Paradise, Chevron Island offers walkable access to beaches, riverfront parklands and a revitalised foreshore boulevard animated by walkers and cyclists throughout the day. The Pacific Ocean is only minutes away, reinforcing the suburb’s dual river-and-surf identity.

At the same time, Thomas Drive forms the spine of the island’s village life, delivering cafés, wine bars, casual dining and everyday services within easy reach. Independent grocers, wellness operators and neighbourhood retailers contribute to a community atmosphere that remains distinct from the vertical scale of the beachfront.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=89709 project_image_fid=360915]

In the opposite direction, the Green Bridge links directly to HOTA – Home of the Arts – placing galleries, performance venues and parklands within walking distance. Weekly markets and major exhibitions draw visitors from across the region, while residents return to a quieter residential pocket at day’s end.

Public transport, including nearby bus routes and the G:link light rail corridor along the coastal spine, strengthens connectivity north and south. Griffith University, the Gold Coast University Hospital precinct and established private schools such as The Southport School are all within a short drive.

Ongoing investment across Surfers Paradise, HOTA and the broader Southport corridor has elevated amenity while preserving Chevron Island’s comparatively low-rise residential character. It is this balance, walkable village atmosphere paired with metropolitan-scale infrastructure, that continues to differentiate the suburb from higher-density beachfront precincts.

Boutique comprises just 42 residences, designed to maximise river and skyline outlooks within this tightly held island setting.

Boutique Chevron Island is slated for completion in April 2026, with prices starting from $1,220,000.

Sydney developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/deicorp">Deicorp</a> has secured planning approval for a $300 million residential development in Lindfield, marking the company’s second project on Sydney’s North Shore and its first on the Upper North Shore.

Located on Beaconsfield Parade and designed by DKO Architecture, the state significant development comprises three buildings of up to 10 storeys and will include 399 residences, including 59 affordable homes and 40 adaptable homes.

Residences will range in size from one, two and three bedrooms, with two-bedroom apartments accounting for over 60 per cent of the product make-up. Residents will have access to a broad suite of amenities, including a wellness area, indoor and outdoor recreational spaces, a pool, a gym, a community room and a golf simulator.

In line with Deicorp’s long-standing focus on creating transit-oriented communities, the project is located just 260 metres from the Lindfield Train Station, reinforcing its role in delivering well-connected housing close to established infrastructure, retail and local services.

The inclusion of affordable and adaptable housing supports greater diversity within the local market, while the mix of apartment types responds to demand from downsizers, young professionals and families seeking access to the Upper North Shore.

Deicorp Founder Fouad Deiri OAM said the approval represents an important milestone for both the company and the suburb

“This approval allows us to deliver well-designed homes in a location that is already supported by strong transport and community infrastructure," Deiri said.

"Our focus is on creating places that integrate into their surroundings and provide long-term value for residents, and the broader Lindfield community. Being within walking distance of the station ensures this project supports sustainable growth in the right locations."

Across its portfolio, Deicorp currently has 4,703 apartments under construction, playing a leading role in shaping connected, liveable communities across Sydney.

Its expanding portfolio of Metro-linked developments includes Tallawong Village, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/kings-bay-village-five-dock-53-75-queens-road-five-dock-nsw-2046">Kings Bay Village</a> in Five Dock, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/hyde-metropolitan-sydney-133-141-liverpool-street-sydney-nsw-2000">Hyde Metropolitan</a> in Sydney CBD, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/falcon-alexander-crows-nest-8-alexander-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Falcon &amp; Alexander</a> in Crows Nest and Showground Village, Castle Hill.

Deicorp purchased the Beaconsfield Paradise site last year. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q2 of 2026 and will be completed in 2029.

In a joint venture with The Trump Organization, Australia developer Altus Property Group has announced plans to bring a Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower to the Gold Coast, marking the first Trump-branded project in Australia.

&nbsp;

"Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast is our first official project in Australia and reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering world-class luxury experiences in iconic locations around the world," Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization, said.

"This development exemplifies the Trump brand’s dedication to quality, sophistication, and unmatched service, and we are thrilled to bring this vision to the vibrant Gold Coast community."

The 91-storey building, which will become the tallest in Australia at 335 metres, will feature a&nbsp;285-room luxury hotel bearing the trademark Trump logo. It will also include 272 luxury residential apartments, a three-level podium with an exclusive Beach Club, and over 3,400 sqm of premium commercial, retail, and dining space, revitalizing the central Surfers Paradise precinct.

“Trump International Hotel &amp; Tower, Gold Coast will be a truly unique offering in the Australian market, bringing the prestige and allure of a world-class luxury brand,"&nbsp;Altus founder and chief executive David Young said.

"Altus Property Group is proud of its track record in delivering landmark developments across Australia, and our expertise ensures this project will be an outstanding success."

Trump Hotel heads for the Gold Coast to become Australia's tallest building

More than a century after the Corrimal Coke Works first opened in 1912, the industrial landmark that helped shape the suburb is being reinterpreted as a walkable residential neighbourhood, with Stage One of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-works-stage-one-27-railway-street-corrimal-nsw-2518">The Works</a> now underway at 27 Railway Street.

For 102 years, the site was central to <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/corrimal-nsw-2518">Corrimal</a>’s economic and social identity before operations ceased in 2014. Rather than erasing that legacy, developer Legacy Property has embedded it into the masterplan, retaining and reinterpreting elements such as the iconic 1912 brick chimney and sections of the original C1 Coke Oven Battery, alongside the adaptive reuse of the former powerhouse building.

Stage One will introduce 181 apartments across low-rise buildings, offering predominantly two and three-bedroom residences with completion targeted for mid-2027. The scale and configuration reflect a deliberate focus on owner-occupiers, targeting those seeking a lower-maintenance home in a prime location within the northern suburbs of Wollongong.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359833]

Apartments have been designed to maximise natural light and cross-ventilation, with floor-to-ceiling glazing extending living areas onto generous balconies. Engineered timber flooring, induction cooktops and 900mm ovens in larger residences support everyday functionality, while two interior palettes allow buyers to tailor finishes to their preferences. The material selection draws on a restrained coastal language, intended to connect homes to their surroundings rather than compete with them.

The Works forms part of a broader 18-hectare masterplan that will ultimately deliver around 550 dwellings, new parks, and a heritage precinct celebrating the site’s past. More than seven hectares are dedicated to open space, including Southern Park and a Village Green with community gardens and recreation areas. The creek corridor is being rehabilitated with 150,000 native plantings, restoring biodiversity to the site and softening landscape.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359841]

Positioned adjacent to Corrimal Station and within walking distance of Corrimal Town Centre, the precinct places daily essentials, rail connections and local retail within easy reach. Wollongong CBD, including the hospital, university and entertainment venues, sits approximately 6.5 kilometres to the south.

For buyers more familiar with North Wollongong, Corrimal offers a different proposition: a well-established coastal suburb framed by beaches to the east and the escarpment to the west, with a strong sense of local identity shaped in part by the former Coke Works. The Works seeks to reinforce that identity by creating a connected, walkable neighbourhood between coast and escarpment, rather than a standalone apartment complex.

Sustainability underpins the development approach. The Works is targeting Wollongong’s first 5-Star Green Star-rated community, with water-sensitive urban design, recycled materials and energy-efficient buildings integrated across the masterplan. For residents, these measures provide not only environmental benefits but also reduced operational costs and future resilience.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143415 project_image_fid=359842]

With construction commenced and display materials available to view, prospective buyers can now engage more directly with the project’s vision, reviewing floorplans, material selections and the broader masterplan in detail. For many local homeowners weighing a move, the opportunity to experience how heritage, landscape and contemporary design intersect may help bridge the gap between familiarity and the next chapter.

As Stage One progresses toward its mid-2027 completion, The Works represents a significant chapter in Corrimal’s evolution, transforming a site that once powered local industry into a walkable residential precinct designed for its next generation of residents.

When it comes to developing in Melb​ourne's Bayside region, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/lowe-living">Lowe Living</a> knows exactly what buyers want.

With a longstanding presence in the area and a string of sell-out projects, Lowe Living consistently delivers developments that are as sought-after as their predecessors.

Their latest instalment is in <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-vic-3188">Hampton</a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/hampton-east-vic-3188">&nbsp;East,</a> the same postcode where they have previously delivered Hampton Hill and Oceano. The developer-builder recently commenced construction on its newest project,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/marella-hampton-31-35-alicia-street-hampton-east-vic-3188">Marella</a>, a collection of 32 apartments just five minutes from the beach.

Site acquisition is paramount to success. Lowe Living rarely brings a building to market that isn’t within walking distance of essential amenities, whether it be the beach, a prominent retail strip, or a train station. Marella is no exception, located at its Alicia Street address, less than a kilometre from the retail heart of Hampton Street and Hampton Station.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358495]

Equally important to Lowe Living is the architecture.

For Marella, they appointed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/cera-stribley-architects">Cera Stribley</a>, who explains that the architectural vision was to create a contemporary reinterpretation of the Californian bungalow, a style that’s iconic to Hampton’s heritage.

"By borrowing, abstracting, and reinterpreting elements of this quintessential style, such as strong datum lines, articulated columns, exposed structures, and roof tiles, our design strikes a balance between modernity and familiarity," says Cera Stribley.

"This approach ensures that the development is not only visually appealing but also contextually sensitive, resonating with Hampton's existing architectural landscape."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358499]

The building features terracotta brick, soft cream masonry, and exposed metal detailing, giving it a tactile presence that is intended to weather gently over time.

Internally, the focus on lasting quality continues, with two and three-bedroom residences anchored by sculptural stone kitchen islands, natural light, and clearly defined transitions between living, dining, and outdoor spaces.

The layouts have been carefully designed. Open-plan zones extend to private balconies, with light-filled interiors and generous kitchen proportions, supported by Miele wall ovens, induction cooktops, and integrated fridge-freezers. These are not small apartments rebranded as luxury; they have been designed at scale, with ample storage, hotel-style entry access, and secure basement parking provided as standard.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358492]

At the uppermost level, Marella’s Signature Collection penthouses offer city or bay views, large entertaining terraces (some with outdoor spas), and elevated finishes, including fully wrapped stone kitchen benches and a Liebherr wine fridge.

Flexible room arrangements allow for a fourth bedroom or secondary living space, sought-after by both empty nesters who want the space when family visits and families with older children.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=146197 project_image_fid=358498]

A residents’ lounge on the ground floor reinforces the project’s small-community feel. With a fireplace, private dining area, and adjoining terrace, it’s one of several shared spaces that balance amenity with privacy and scale.

Construction has commenced, with completion expected in early 2027.

Epping

More than seven years after buying the former Epping quarry in Melbourne’s northern suburbs, property developers, Riverlee has won approval from the City of Whittlesea to turn the 51-hectare site into a $2 billion mixed-use precinct.

Across five neighbourhoods, New Epping will deliver a range of commercial, healthcare, residential and civic spaces that will establish the suburb as the 'new urban north' in Melbourne.

Located 18-kilometres from the CBD, New Epping will contribute more than $3.4 billion to the state economy – about 1 per cent of Victoria’s GDP – and provide 7,200 jobs once fully operational. More than 600 construction workers will be required annually on the project.

Riverlee development director David Lee says New Epping sets a new benchmark in how an integrated mixed-use development can meet the demands of a rapidly growing population.

<img alt="Render of the residential neighbourhood within the New Epping development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="beb0daba-2b7c-4a50-a981-2e6cd967a71b" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/New%20Epping%20Residential%20Neighbourhood.jpg?VersionId=AIlEFD2FnbN9eKvWuS.xPFiID8mLjAWi" />Render of the residential neighbourhood within the New Epping development. Image supplied.&nbsp;

“We want New Epping to set a new standard in urban renewal, with a more thoughtful approach to how we regenerate infill sites and integrate mixed-use communities. Diversity is key to the success in a mixed-use precinct — that is what makes for a resilient community,” he said.

Situated next to the Northern Hospital, which is the busiest emergency department in Victoria, plans include a 7-hectare healthcare precinct and a private hospital, which will deliver critical infrastructure to the healthcare sector.

City of Whittlesea Chair Administrator Lydia Wilson said Riverlee’s vision to transform the dormant site will provide significant benefit to the growing northern corridor and its community.

“This landmark project will provide employment opportunities, economic stimulus and the infrastructure required to create a vibrant urban environment that is underpinned by wellness and sustainability,” Wilson said.

“Riverlee has created a vision for New Epping that builds on the cornerstones of our community — healthcare as our leading industry, the need for quality housing for people at all stages of life, and sustainability as a way of ensuring a bright and healthy future for our younger generations. With its challenging site conditions, the former Epping Quarry has laid dormant for decades. Its transformation is something the entire community can look forward to.”

New Epping’s vision for a greener future will see a central green spine and waterway rehabilitated, while built spaces will target net-zero in operation, providing sustainability benefits to enhance the urban experience and liveability.

With a focus on walkable neighbourhoods, residential plans include a diverse community of 2,000 homes, including townhomes, apartments, affordable housing, retirement residences and aged care.

Image supplied.&nbsp;

Residential and commercial precincts will be connected by a civic heart, complete with parks, cafes and recreation facilities.

“By looking at design at the neighbourhood scale, we have had the privilege to not only regenerate the natural environment but also lay the foundations for a community underpinned by connection and wellness,” Lee said.

“We believe that by creating purpose-built spaces for living, working and leisure, with unrivalled amenity and integration with nature, we can truly impact the way people live for the better, and we thank the City of Whittlesea for working with us to make this project a reality."

“Across five neighbourhoods, we will be delivering a range of commercial, healthcare, residential and civic spaces that will cement Epping as the CBD of Melbourne's north. In doing so, we want to bring all the character you find in the inner north of Melbourne to Epping and in that sense, this project is ahead of its time and will redefine the suburbs of the future,” he added.&nbsp;

Riverlee secures approval for $2 billion New Epping 'mini city' in Melbourne’s north

Integrated property investor and developer, Cbus Property, has officially launched its residential mixed-use development, The Langston, to the community in Epping. 
&nbsp; 
Cbus Property’s Chair, Georgina Lynch, and CEO, Adrian Pozzo, were joined by the Lord Mayor of the City of Parramatta Councillor Donna Davis, and other key stakeholders in the official launch to open the project’s public plaza and introduce the community to the dynamic retail precinct.

With construction group Hutchinson Builders commencing ground works on the precinct back in January 2019, on the site of Epping’s former Westpac Credit Card Services building, the project’s completion marks the conclusion of a momentous journey that began when Cbus Property acquired The Langston site in 2014.

Located in the heart of Epping, between Langston Place and Chambers Court, The Langston features 462 residences across three towers of 29, 24 and 19-storeys, known as Langston Tower, Central and Oasis.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6074 project_image_fid=197596]

The ready-to-move-in residences are priced from $590,000, with one and two-bedroom apartments still available.&nbsp;

The new community is now home to more than 1,000 people, who are enjoying an unrivalled lifestyle courtesy of the project’s extensive amenity offering, including the Sky Lounge and dining space on level 22 of The Langston’s middle tower, Central, in addition to lush podium-level gardens, the Wellness Hub and co-working spaces.

Pozzo said the achievement of practical completion at The Langston was a significant milestone for Cbus Property.

“The delivery of this project has been a resounding success for all stakeholders,” he said.

“A big thank you to Hutchinson Builders, our stakeholders and our construction workforce for rising to the challenges faced by our communities throughout the past few years. Major projects of this calibre always have their challenges. However, I am pleased to say our team expertly navigated the pandemic-related lockdowns and ongoing uncertainty around COVID-19 during the complex construction phase to achieve this outstanding result.

The official opening of the precinct was also celebrated with the second occurrence of The Langston Weekender festival, which followed the inaugural festival held in 2018, prior to construction commencement.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6074 project_image_fid=197590]

More than 5,000 visitors attended the event, transforming The Langston’s public domain for a day of family-friendly fun, featuring market stalls, art, music, dancing and entertainment.

The event also supported The Langston’s new retail operators, including the on-site supermarket Mint Fresh IGA, fitness club operators Team Bros, City Cave Float and Wellness Centre and new local cafe, Brew Bar.

Pozzo said he was delighted to welcome Epping locals and the wider Sydney community back to The Langston.

“We have certainly been on a long journey since we first held The Langston Weekender back in 2018 and we enjoyed showing people and celebrating how much the precinct has transformed in the intervening years,” he said.

“The idea behind the first iteration of this event was to help people conceptualise the future lifestyle and retail offering at The Langston, so it was incredibly rewarding to be able to showcase the completed project in person.”

Renowned architecture firm Fender Katsalidis has puts its pen to a design of a new apartment tower in Sydney's West.

FK, on behalf of the applicant, real estate finance group AsheMorgan, has drawn up plans for a 15-level shop top project at&nbsp;246-250 Beecroft Road, across the road from Epping train station and&nbsp;on the fringe of the Epping Town Centre.

The tower will home 103 apartments above a medical centre and retail space.

<img alt="Render of the proposed shop-top residential building. " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e6801ab7-5a64-4a29-a319-bea754b650e8" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-08-26%20at%2010.22.06%20am.png?VersionId=x1QyLmq_cqQPyjo4dIJPo.miij0cKZ53" />

The podium will be predominantly be the use of the medical centre, in response to a demand in the area, as well as for general retail that can provide potential food and beverage opportunities.&nbsp;

The medical centre and retail entry on the ground level will be accessed from Beecroft Road via a common lobby, while the residential lobby entry at ground level will be separated from the commercial entry to provide secure access for residents.

The apartments will be a mix of 29 one-beds, 56 two-beds, and 18 three-bedders.

FK advised in their design statement submitted to the local council that the L-shaped tower presents two interlocking forms, through the use of variations in height of the two intersecting wings,&nbsp;as well as articulation in the corner expression.

"A simple and restrained palette will be utilised throughout, with warm and textured materials creating a sense of human scale and tactility," FK noted.

"To articulate the podium massing, a brick colonnaded form is proposed in the podium level, complemented with bronze metallic framed glazed element infills."

<img alt="Render of the proposed shop-top residential building.

Full height glazing will also be included to maximise visual connection between the lobby and retail tenancies and the street.&nbsp;

A private native garden is proposed across the ground floor to enhance the green link to the community along with a communal terrace on the level two podium.&nbsp;

Fitted out with social and recreational spaces, the level two podium will also include a communal lawn, barbecue facilities, outdoor seating, an outdoor cinema, as well as table tennis and football facilities.&nbsp;

The level 13 and 14 rooftop terraces will also take advantage of the viewlines, along with incorporating barbecue facilities and outdoor seating, wrapped in lush landscaping.&nbsp;

Sitting within close proximity to key transport interchanges, namely the Epping Train and Metro Stations, the project is also well connected to the retail and dining precincts of Beecroft Road and Oxford Street.&nbsp;

First look: Epping set for Fender Katsalidis-designed apartment development

Integrated property investor and developer, Cbus Property, has announced the anticipated practical completion of the group’s residential mixed-use development in Sydney’s north-west, The Langstone Epping.

Construction contractors, Hutchinson Builders, commenced ground works on the site of the former Epping Westpac Credit Card Services building back in January 2019, with the project completion marking the conclusion of a journey that began when Cbus acquired The Langston site in 2014.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6074 project_image_fid=197608]

Located in the heart of Epping between Langston Place and Chambers Court, opposite the Epping railway station, The Langston comprises 462 residences, set across three towers of 29, 24 and 19- storeys, known as Langston Tower, Central and Oasis.

Following settlements across the three towers during April and May 2022, The Langston has now become home to a new community that could eventually increase to more than 1,000 people, according to the developers.

Residents have already established connections through a series of Meet The Neighbours gatherings hosted by Cbus Property, while a number of other resident activations and public events are set to take place in the precinct across the remainder of the year.

Why residents love the new Epping apartment development, Origin

Harry Trig​uboff&#39;s apartment giant, Meriton, has submitted its first New South Wales development plans for 2022.

They&#39;re set to develop again in Epping, seven years after completing&nbsp;Eppi​ng Park, their largest northern district project with 800 apartments across the 17 building precinct.

Meriton secured the Cambridge Office Park at&nbsp;37-41 Oxford Street, Epping, from the Goo​dman Group, who themselves had plans&nbsp;by&nbsp;Cande​lapas to redevelop the vast 4,970 sqm site which also homes a tennis court

Having settled on the site last year, Meriton had Nicholas Bandounas, principal of urban design at Scott Carver who is also designing part of the Australian War Memorial,&nbsp;put together plans for a 30-level mixed-use tower with a six-level basement.

The biggest amend to the DA was to include a childcare centre on the lower levels.

The two-level commercial podium will comprise a retail space, a 60 children centre-based child care facility, and commercial office space.

Set privately for residents use on the ground level is a lap pool and spa and an 80 sqm gym, surrounded by lush landscaping.

Above will be 211 apartments, a mix of 43 one-bedroom plus study apartments, 124 two-bedroom units, 42 three-bedroom apartments and just two four-bedders.

&quot;All apartments have been designed with consideration for a high level of comfort for the residents through privacy, solar access, visual outlook, and natural cross ventilation,&quot;&nbsp;Bandounas noted in the design statement submitted to the local council.

&quot;Internal layouts have been designed to maximise living spaces and to create generous open plan layouts. All units have been provided with a private open space off the main living areas, providing access to natural light and ventilation.&quot;

The plans are a continuation&nbsp;of further development of Epping&#39;s Oxford Street, with a recently completed 22-level mixed-use building to the south and a proposal with the Parramatta Council for a 15-level mixed-use tower to the north.

&quot;Epping Town Centre is an area that is currently undergoing a transformation as a result of significant infrastructure investment with the planned Sydney Metro Northwest,&quot; Bandounas added.

&quot;The proposal seeks to be a precedent for future development in the area.

&quot;The development will help define a new context which is envisioned for the area and within which other residential development of a similar scale and height will be built. The proposed seeks to make a positive contribution to the current and future character of the area and to set the standard for future high-density residential building developments.&quot;

Meriton is set to develop again in Epping, seven years after completing Epping Park, their largest northern district project with 800 apartments across the 17 building precinct.



Meriton set for new Epping apartment tower

Cbus Property is set to launch its final release in its popular north-western Sydney apartment development, The Langston in Epping.

The third and final apartment tower, dubbed Oasis, will rise 18 levels and sit along side Langston Tower and Central. Langston is all-but sold out, while Central is 70 per cent sold.

Oasis will home 92 one, two and three-bedroom apartments, with a distinctive design by Architectus seeing some floors have just four apartments.

Hutchinson Builders, who have built all three towers in the precinct,&nbsp;will be&nbsp;allowing prospective buyers to walk through a completed apartment in Oasis for the launch day November 6, inspect the finishes and furnishing the apartments will have when completed in early 2022.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109224 project_image_fid=181292]

Cbus Property chief executive Adrian Pozzo said offering a completed apartment&nbsp;gives purchasers another level of confidence that what they buy will be delivered in the same way.

“This is especially important for purchasers seeking reassurance as they return to in-person property searches in the wake of Sydney’s pandemic-related lockdowns,” Pozzo said.

“At the same time, I know our project and sales teams are eager to share the results of their&nbsp;hard work throughout the past three years.”

Pozzo believes Oasis will appeal to a wide range of purchasers eager to secure a place in Epping’s premier development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109224 project_image_fid=181294]

“Even through Sydney’s recent lockdowns, The Langston has continued to sell well, with our first stage, Langston Tower, now almost sold out, and our second stage, Central, nearly 70 per cent sold,” Pozzo said.

“Now, with the release of Oasis, we are expecting interest from young professionals and families, as well as downsizers, in what will be the last chance to secure a place in Epping’s landmark project.

“With its prime location just 100 metres from Epping station, an amazing lifestyle precinct on the doorstep, and countless amenities on site, Oasis combines all the factors modern residential apartment purchasers are seeking.”

Pozzo said what's become evident in the last few years is that in the residential high&nbsp;and medium density sectors,&nbsp;homebuyers are looking for an increased level of space and amenity in and around their homes, reducing the need to venture too far from home.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=109224 project_image_fid=181293]

Oasis residents will have direct access to all of The Langston’s luxurious amenity, including the Sky Lounge &amp;&nbsp;Dining space, on level 22 of The Langston’s middle tower, Central, as well as lush podium-level gardens, the Pool Deck, Wellness Hub, gym and co-working space.

Oasis is The Langston’s closest offering to Epping Station and is quietly set back in a peaceful pocket of Chambers Court, away from Epping Road.

The Langston precinct features a landscaped 2,750 sqm public plaza adjoining a 2,100 sqm mixed-use retail precinct, including a supermarket, cafés, restaurants, and a number of other retail tenancies.

Turner Studio have handled the contemporary design of Epping Central, which they say&nbsp;will create an active and vibrant community

&quot;The development proposal builds upon the vision and objectives of the Epping Town Centre Urban Activation Precinct Structure Plan and creates a true mixed use building that responds to local needs by supporting the existing and future culture of the local community,&quot; the design report submitted by Turner Studio and signed off by director Dan Szwaj read.

Cbus Property, is currently marketing the final opportunity to purchase a penthouse in Epping for the foreseeable future, with the release of the last remaining penthouse at its north-western Sydney development, The Langston.

The two-storey, five-bedroom residence is positioned on the uppermost floors of the tallest of three towers – the 29-storey Langston Tower – and has price expectations of circa $3.3 million.

According to Adrian Pozzo, Cbus Property’s Chief Executive Officer, a similar property is unlikely to become available in Epping for some time.

“With no new residential high-rise projects currently under construction in the Epping town centre, it will realistically be years before a penthouse of this size and calibre becomes available again,” Mr Pozzo said.

"We have already had significant interest in the property from local north-west Sydney downsizers, from areas such as Beecroft, Cheltenham and Carlingford, who are looking for something with comparable living space and status to their current homes.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29936 project_image_fid=90755]

The house-sized residence’s five bedrooms incorporating two equally sized master bedrooms with en suites, on separate levels.

Spanning two levels with more than 230 sqm&nbsp;of internal living space, there is plenty of room to enjoy the&nbsp;180-degree views that reach from the&nbsp;Sydney CBD to the south, all the way to the Blue Mountains to the west.

The wider Langston precinct provides a range of&nbsp;amenities, including a Pool Deck, Wellness Hub and Sky Lounge.

The Pool Deck incorporates a 20-metre pool and poolside cabanas, while the Wellness Hub features a well-appointed gym and yoga studio, and direct connection to the Pool Deck. Sky Lounge offers a landscaped terrace capturing views of the Sydney CBD skyline and the Blue Mountains, plus shared dining rooms&nbsp;spaces to celebrate special occasions.

There is also a residents-only podium-level gardens, featuring barbeques, casual seating areas, play zones and open green spaces, as well as shared co-working spaces.

The final penthouse in Cbus Property's The Langston in Epping set for sale

The leading property developer Cbus Property have topped out their residential mixed-use project The Langston in Sydney&#39;s Epping.

The topping out came of their 29-storey Langston Tower, which will be the tallest tower of three to be built by Hutchinson Builders.&nbsp;

The Langston Tower&nbsp;will be flanked with two further towers, the 24 level The Central, as well as a 19-level tower yet to be named. The trio of towers will home 462 apartments which are expected to be completed by the end of 2021.

The Langston, located 100 metres from Epping Station, will also home a 2,750 sqm public plaza which adjoins a 2,100 sqm mixed-use retail precinct which will include a supermarker, cafes, restaurants and a number of retail tenances.

Cbus Property CEO Adrian Pozzo said the topping out, attended by Hutchinson Builders chairman Scott Hutchinson&nbsp;and City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Bob Dywer, marks an important step in the revitalization of the Epping Town Centre.

&ldquo;To have the physical structure of The Langston completed is a major achievement for our entire project team &ndash; and we&rsquo;re now focussed on pushing ahead into the final stages of the construction,&rdquo; Mr Pozzo said.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve been committed to developing this site for a number of years, so to reach this stage in the development is not only an exciting milestone for us, but also for the future face of Epping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29936]

&ldquo;The Langston is a major contributor to the Epping Town Centre, providing new housing opposite a major transport hub, as well as brand-new retail offerings and an extensive public domain that links pedestrians from the station through to the eastern side of the suburb.

The event included the placement of a ceremonial magnolia tree atop Langston Tower to mark the occasion.

Architectus have designed the three towers.

Architectus senior associate&nbsp;Gary Henighen believes The Langston will be a distinctive landmark in Sydney&rsquo;s north-west.

&ldquo;The Langston will feature abundant amenity and premium features akin to that of inner-CBD residential projects,&rdquo; Mr Henighen said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6074 project_image_fid=71820]

&ldquo;Architectus&rsquo; design thoughtfully responds to the changing market conditions, including the rapid growth of the region, links to the new metro line and increased expectations for apartment living following the COVID-19 pandemic.

&ldquo;The Langston will provide residents with a luxurious, hotel-style experience and externally, the curvaceous form of the buildings maximises the spectacular 360-degree views over Sydney&rsquo;s city skyline and the Blue Mountains.&quot;

There will be a swimming pool with a pool deck and cabanas, a wellness hub with gym and exercise spaces, a sky lounge with terrace and private dining spaces and an on-site co-working space.

Prices start&nbsp;from $580,000 for a one-bedroom apartment or $790,000 for a two-bedroom apartment.

The topping out came of their 29-storey Langston Tower, which will be the tallest tower of three to be built by Hutchinson Builders
