<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a> has reached significant construction milestones at two of its landmark Melbourne residential communities, &nbsp;with topping-out ceremonies held at The Albertine, on the fringe of the CBD, and Prince &amp; Parade in Brunswick, &nbsp;marking the completion of the top floors of each apartment building.&nbsp;

Together, the two communities will deliver 265 new apartments, providing a vital boost to housing supply at a time &nbsp;when construction of new homes remains challenging.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-albertine-by-mirvac-melbourne-31-queens-lane-melbourne-vic-3004">The Albertine</a> and <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/prince-parade-by-mirvac-brunswick-701-park-street-brunswick-vic-3056">Prince &amp; Parade</a> are part of Mirvac’s $7.4 billion Victorian development pipeline, which includes &nbsp;both residential and commercial mixed-use projects, such as Trielle at Yarra’s Edge, scheduled to top out in early &nbsp;2026.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138659 project_image_fid=294831]

Mirvac’s CEO, Development – Residential and Commercial Mixed Use, Stuart Penklis, said the milestones reflect the strong momentum of Mirvac’s Victorian projects and the continued demand for premium residences in sought after inner-city locations.&nbsp;

“We are proud to be delivering The Albertine and Prince &amp; Parade, two projects that embody Mirvac’s design excellence, commitment to quality, and focus on creating homes that connect people to their communities. With &nbsp;cranes rising high across Melbourne, Mirvac’s residential pipeline is moving strongly, and these milestones are a &nbsp;testament to that momentum,” Penklis said. &nbsp;

“We have recently opened our third build to rent community in Melbourne, LIV Albert at Brunswick, our fifth &nbsp;nationally, which together with our master-planned communities ensures that we are providing a full spectrum of &nbsp;housing options to Victorians."

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-albertine-by-mirvac-melbourne-31-queens-lane-melbourne-vic-3004">The Albertine</a> offers one- to four-bedroom residences across 14 storeys, complemented by exclusive resident-only &nbsp;amenity. This includes The Circadian Club, a wellness centre featuring an indoor pool and spa, gym, yoga and &nbsp;Pilates studio and sauna, and The Elysian Room, a private dining space on level 10 with sweeping views across &nbsp;Melbourne.&nbsp;

Since construction began in August last year, up to 240 workers have been on site daily, pouring 7,000 cubic metres &nbsp;of concrete across 72 pours and installing over 1,000 tonnes of steel reinforcement to bring the building to this &nbsp;landmark moment.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/prince-parade-by-mirvac-brunswick-701-park-street-brunswick-vic-3056">Prince &amp; Parade</a> marks Mirvac’s third collaboration with acclaimed design practice <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bates-smart">Bates Smart</a>, following the &nbsp;award-winning The Melburnian (2002) and The Eastbourne (2019). Offering a mix of one- to four-bedroom &nbsp;residences, the community will feature a residential lounge, shared dining room and kitchen, a courtyard designed &nbsp;by Jack Merlo, library, yoga room, gym, shared rooftop terrace, and concierge service.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=4802 project_image_fid=217137]

Construction at the site is rapidly transforming the skyline, with significant milestones already achieved. Two &nbsp;buildings are now taking shape, supported by 73 slab pours and six fully constructed building cores.&nbsp;

Mirvac’s General Manager, Residential Development Victoria, Elysa Anderson said both projects remain on track, &nbsp;with completion expected in 2026.&nbsp;

“These communities have been well received, attracting strong interest from downsizers and professionals who &nbsp;value high-quality design, premium locations and the confidence of buying with Mirvac,” Anderson said. &nbsp;

Prince &amp; Parade has also achieved a record-breaking apartment sale in Brunswick, further underscoring the &nbsp;strength of the project.&nbsp;

“We’re incredibly proud to see Prince &amp; Parade set a new benchmark for Brunswick. This record-breaking sale is a &nbsp;testament to Mirvac’s design excellence, quality craftsmanship, and our strong reputation for delivering high quality residential communities across the country."

Shenfield to commence construction on Banksia, Cheltenham this summer

As the finishing touches take shape at Delano, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/lindsay-bennelong-developments">Lindsay Bennelong Developments</a> is preparing to welcome its first residents before the end of the year.&nbsp;

Set just 450 metres from the newly opened Crows Nest Metro Station, this elegant low-rise development is poised to offer a lifestyle of both connectivity and character, perfectly timed for those hoping to settle into a new home by Christmas.

Located at 33 Falcon Street, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/delano-crows-nest-27-57-falcon-street-crows-nest-nsw-2065">Delano</a> comprises 81 residences across three boutique buildings, including a collection of townhomes and one, two, and three-bedroom apartments.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134072 project_image_fid=3334]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ajc-architects">AJC Architects</a>, the project takes inspiration from the Art Deco influences that define the area, interpreted through a contemporary lens and framed by lush gardens.

“Our vision was to fashion a landmark that creates a transition between cosmopolitan Crows Nest village and the adjoining heritage conservation zone,” said Peter Campbell, Managing Director of Lindsay Bennelong.&nbsp;

“We worked closely with the community throughout the planning process to ensure the design respected and enhanced the neighbourhood's character.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134072 project_image_fid=3337]

The architectural response is careful and measured. The central five-storey apartment building steps down to three storeys along Falcon Street, while the townhouses along Hayberry Lane mirror the surrounding residential scale.&nbsp;

Inside, residences are finished with herringbone engineered timber floors,&nbsp;100% wool loop pile&nbsp;carpet, and natural stone benchtops paired with Miele appliances.

Designed for light, air, and longevity, all homes feature cross-ventilation and energy-efficient fittings. The communal areas also integrate sustainability principles, including site-wide water harvesting and natural ventilation in lobbies and corridors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134072 project_image_fid=3331]

Beyond the front door, residents will enjoy a gymnasium, shared electric vehicle, and an expansive communal lawn with barbecue and seating areas.&nbsp;

Leafy views toward Mosman and North Sydney elevate the upper-level residences, while street-level walkability to shops, cafés, and supermarkets reinforces Delano’s village-like convenience.

“Our focus has always been on securing premium sites, so we were excited by the opportunity to reimagine this significant location,” said Campbell. “With the new Crows Nest Metro Station now operational, this sought-after locale is firmly in the spotlight."&nbsp;

“I’m confident that we have collaboratively achieved a place to live poised to become an important part of Crows Nest's rich and diverse architectural fabric.”

Apartments on Campbell Parade, no matter what size, will always draw significant buyer interest.

That seems to be the view of prominent&nbsp;Eastern Suburbs developer Vaughan Blank, who has submitted plans to add apartments above the heritage-listed&nbsp;Arnott’s Flats building at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/32-campbell-parade-bondi-beach-nsw-2026">32 Campbell Parade</a>, toward the southern end of the sand.

The site, toward the southern end of the famous strip, is just over seven metres wide.

Rather than wholesale redevelopment given the heritage-listed status of the current building, the application proposes to retain the building’s Inter-War period façade, considered contributory within the Bondi Beach Heritage Conservation Area, while replacing much of the structure behind with a contemporary residential addition.&nbsp;

The submitted design, prepared by DARC Architecture, seeks to construct four additional storeys above the retained frontage, creating a total of five levels including the ground-floor retail.

The new building will add seven apartments,&nbsp;including a portion designated as affordable housing under the State Environmental Planning Policy (Housing) 2021.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

<img alt="32 Campbell Parade, BONDI BEACH NSW 2026" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2adce9ac-88ee-4725-af91-bae55278b514" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/campbell%20da%20pers.png?VersionId=6d5Vwp4dg1PLmngARhRD5vl_ofl7SlQf" />

“The design introduces a cantilevered setback to preserve the prominence of the heritage façade,” DARC wrote in its submission, adding that the upper levels will be "finished in a contemporary yet sympathetic material palette that complements nearby heritage items, including the Astra Hotel and Remola and Cenira Mansions”.

The original structure, known as Arnott’s Flats, was built in the early 1920s and is distinguished by its decorative pediment, Ionic pilasters, and engraved entablature.&nbsp;

The Statement of Heritage Impact prepared by Weir Phillips Heritage supports the partial retention approach, suggesting the development will "ensure the long-term viability and ongoing maintenance of this contributory item, thereby supporting the sustainable preservation of the Bondi Beach HCA”.

Vaughan Blank, a former executive at Glencore, has a penchant for investing and developing in Sydney's east. In 2017 he spent $33 million on a block of Art Deco flats in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/edgecliff-nsw-2027" target="">Edgecliff</a>&nbsp;in 2017, which at the time was highest price paid at auction for a residential property in Australia.

He has extensive holdings in Double Bay, Woollahra, and Tamarama. His development company, STM Realty, also has development sites on Hall Street and O'Brien Street.

One of Sydney’s most hotly contested urban landholdings is set for transformation, with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/conquest">Conquest Property Group</a> lodging plans to redevelop the former Cyprus Club site in Stanmore into a $900 million mixed-use precinct of apartments and retail.

Dubbed Stanmore Village, the proposal has been submitted to the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority for assessment under its state-significant development pathway. If approved, it would see the 9,140 sqm site, once home to the Cyprus Community of NSW, reimagined with 500 apartments above a new retail and lifestyle destination.

The site was acquired by Conquest for $55 million earlier in 2025 following a highly competitive sales campaign run by Cushman &amp; Wakefield on behalf of EY Parthenon, who were appointed administrators of the former club.

Marketed as one of Inner Sydney’s most significant residential opportunities in years, the property drew substantial interest from domestic and offshore developers, institutional investors, and education and healthcare operators.

<img alt="58-76 Stanmore Rd" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="8690f4be-8214-4eb4-9857-faf0cb7b336d" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/58-76%20Stanmore%20Rd%20-%20aerial%20marked.jpg?VersionId=I_iKzGDILRSTqZu3au07.1aja4uv5rCJ" />

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fk-australia">FK Architects</a> with planning by Principle Planning, Stanmore Village proposes a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments situated above what will be known as the Queensbridge Shopping Centre. The retail component will feature a full-line supermarket, specialty stores, a gym, and activated communal spaces across multiple levels.

According to the Urban Design Report, the scheme is framed by a stepped massing strategy that addresses the site’s dual context - fronting the commercial spine of Pacific Highway while responding to the finer grain of Church Lane.

In addition to market housing, the project incorporates a dedicated affordable housing component, located on levels two and three, comprising 10 apartments delivered in accordance with the Housing SEPP 2021. This enables the proposal to qualify for floor space and height bonuses under the state’s planning framework.

Design features include deep soil landscaping, communal rooftop and ground-floor open spaces, a new pedestrian laneway connecting both street frontages, and the adaptive reuse of the existing heritage shopfront building, formerly known as The Cloisters Antique Store.

The project follows the drawn-out administration process of the Cyprus Community of NSW, which entered voluntary administration in 2023. The Supreme Court ultimately permitted the sale without member approval, with creditors to be repaid in full and a significant surplus earmarked for the Community’s future endeavours.

If approved, construction of Stanmore Village could begin in 2026, with completion expected by mid-2028.

Conquest unveils $900m Stanmore Village vision for landmark Inner West site

Inner-west

The privately owned real estate and investment group Conquest marked their first foray into Burwood with their latest residential development, La Luna.&nbsp;

With offices in both Sydney and London, the group has seamlessly connected La Luna with its surrounding diversified neighbourhood, with the 54-apartment tower donning a brass-accented facade which gives it its distinct character.&nbsp;

Located in the heart of the thriving inner-west suburb, at 23 George Street, the apartments sit on the cusp of Burwood's restaurant district.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6552 project_image_fid=202004]

A wide variety of venues are on offer, from the fast-paced style of Burwood's own Chinatown, made up of thirty hawker-style eateries, or for a more refined experience, residents can opt for Onyx Grill which is located in&nbsp;Crowne Plaza Sydney Burwood.&nbsp;

For an afternoon sip, Skye Bar is an eight-minute stroll down Burwood Road, taking in sunsets over the Blue Mountains as well as 360 degree views of the Greater Sydney skyline.&nbsp;

Outdoors-y residents will also find a place within the community, with Burwood Park located just 350-metres from La Luna, offering a recreational space for everybody, with a tennis court, an outdoor chess board, and a playground.&nbsp;

Shopping enthusiasts won't have to look far either, with Westfield Burwood a seven-minute stroll from the steps of La Luna, boasting an array of retailers, including&nbsp;David Jones, Kmart, Target, Coles, Woolworths, along with an Event Cinema.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=6552 project_image_fid=202005]

With many families calling Burwood home, a number of schools also fall within reach of La Luna, with Burwood Girls High, Burwood Public School and the&nbsp;Sydney School of Business and Technology all under a 10-minutes walk.

The site is located within 250-metres of Burwood Train Station, making commuting into the city, which is just 12-kilometres away, a breeze. A number of bus stops are also within proximity of La Luna's steps, while the proposed future Burwood Metro will be only a short walk away, adding additional means of transport for residents.&nbsp;Residents can make their way into the city via a ferry as well, with Cabarita Wharf just five-kilometres from the site.&nbsp;

Around Burwood's La Luna Residences 

Sydney-based investment house Princeton has recently acquired one of the last remaining warehouse conversion sites in the Balmain Village Precinct, worth a combined value of $40 million.&nbsp;

The 960 sqm inner-west site at 73-75 Beattie Street will house just five three-bedroom terraces along with a one-of-a-kind New York loft-style four-bedroom penthouse, with views to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and city skyline.&nbsp;

Construction will kick off in the first quarter of next year as the new residences position themselves as welcome addition to the affluent suburb.&nbsp;

While Sydney property prices show signs of dropping, the latest CoreLogic figures show Balmain has experienced a steady increase over the last five years, with a growth rate of nearly 20 per cent over the last twelve months and a current median sales price of $2.7 million.&nbsp;

<img alt="Render of the proposed Beattie St development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fc40fe3e-2d77-4c14-9f93-f6e929967793" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/CGI%20-%20Llewelyn%20Street.png?VersionId=GHbYC3UB_mUR.3yDK47G0Led5Gaz8Ymx" /> 
Render of the proposed Beattie St. development.

Princeton founders, George Gadallah and Craig Anderson said the new addition provided the perfect step for their quick growing investment portfolio in Sydney’s inner-west.

“The acquisition of the Balmain site is an exciting leap forwards for Princeton in the highly competitive inner-west market,” said Gadallah.

“Balmain is one of Sydney’s most in demand suburbs and continues to outperform the wider market due to government infrastructure announcements such as WestConnex and Sydney Metro West, as well as its proximity to amenities in the CBD, strong demographic and lack of land supply.”

“This development will offer home buyers dynamic, terrace-style living with unparalleled views of Sydney’s world-famous harbour, with each terrace providing a separate home office or rumpus room above basement car parking.”

“It’s going to be exciting to see this project come to life over the coming months/years and cement itself as a crown jewel of the inner west,” Gadallah added.&nbsp;

The Balmain project will join an already strong portfolio from Princeton, including the underway Botany project, Baronet &amp; Banks, Serrata in Blakehurst, and luxury living development in Bondi Beach with Eurangi.

The 960 sqm inner-west site at 73-75 Beattie Street will house just five three-bedroom terraces along with a one-of-a-kind New York loft-style four-bedroom penthouse, with views to the Sydney Harbour Bridge and city skyline. 

Princeton to build apartments in the heart of Balmain 

Sydney-based developers, Billbergia and architects SJB will once again team up, forming part of the Rhodes East Master Plan.

Billbergia and SJB previously collaborated on the transformation of Rhodes from an industrial peninsula into a fully regenerated suburb, in a bid by the State Government to transform obsolete industrial lands on the shores of the Parramatta River adjacent to Homebush Bay Olympic Park.

Master planned in 2005 by SJB, the first stages of work wrapped up this year, with Billbergia and SJB now taking to 25-27 Leeds Street to expand on the long-term regeneration of the greater Rhodes area.

<img alt="Render of the Rhodes East development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9c3242ea-811c-468c-9cff-bb27f2662829" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-04%20at%2011.06.14%20am.png?VersionId=lMIg0qRuP40dwynqJA9qb2TKm2dlrolO" />

Managing Director, John Kinsella said the project will breathe new life into the Parramatta River foreshore, making it not only greener and more attractive but more accessible as well.&nbsp;

“The project will deliver 6,000 sqm of public open space, including a retail and dining precinct and will open up the waterfront promenade with an interactive river edge for the community to enjoy,” Kinsella.

Unique designs by a collaborative team of SJB and Land Form Studio were chosen from a design competition, with a jury comprising representatives from City of Canada Bay Council, NSW Government Architect’s and Nation Architects. 
&nbsp; 
SJB’s Director, Nick Hatzi said the group had a long-running connection with Rhodes, having completed the first Master Plan for the regeneration of the suburb in 2005.&nbsp;

“We’ve delivered many mixed-use buildings in the area including most recently Rhodes Central by Billbergia which forms the retail heart of the suburb,” Hatzi said.

<img alt="Render of the proposed Rhodes East development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="dc4f15b4-bafa-41c0-b377-1b9d5e8ad242" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-04%20at%2011.06.53%20am.png?VersionId=TDJvc1Ulqn_g0f51AMlFpegwdhGrHwKw" />

“Our proposal for Leeds Street opens up new connections to the water and reflects SJB’s approach to permeable and civic-centric mixed-use development.”&nbsp;

“Being the first development under the master plan - we hope this precinct sets a high benchmark for the incoming community,” he added.&nbsp;

A collection of varying scaled buildings will be constructed across the site, with a defined podium of a singular material and lighter-coloured concrete forms.&nbsp;

Land and Form Director, Ro Iyer said the public domain will embrace the unique geographical setting and confluence of where the Parramatta River meets Rhodes.&nbsp;

“The foreshore design represents this transition from natural to urban, creating an iconic destination that looks to restore and enhance important ecological assets and allow people to actively engage with the Parramatta River, setting a high-quality precedent for the Rhodes East Precinct,” Iyer said.&nbsp;

At the site’s juncture, there are a number of key interfaces - the foreshore to the north, the historic bridge to the west, the transitioning industrial context to the east, and a proposed public school and grounds to the south.&nbsp;

<img alt="Render of the proposed Rhodes East development " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="6b5ed3af-5940-4173-b555-d12346277096" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-04%20at%2011.06.23%20am.png?VersionId=6HUOxdMWjiI3jTYs0sYqF1hOw6f3WAa6" />

Building layouts are optimised towards the views and orientated for solar access, with internal facing courtyard apartments also receiving glimpses through the building gaps towards the river ensuring at least 85 percent of the apartments have desired outlooks.

“This project will reimagine the Rhodes waterfront and forms a critical piece in the NSW Government's rejuvenation of the Parramatta River waterfront from Sydney Opera House to Parramatta Park,” said Kinsella.

Managing Director, John Kinsella said the project will breathe new life into the Parramatta River foreshore, making it not only greener and more attractive but more accessible as well.

&ldquo;We know that Croydon is a wonderful location, just 20 minutes from the CBD, and buyers that have been eager to secure their first home somewhere that makes commuting to work easy,&rdquo; Alexander Vrisakis, HAUS Agency Director, said.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;re really excited to bring such a unique building to the market in Enfield, a location that many don&rsquo;t realise is an area on the flanks of Sydney&rsquo;s Inner West experiencing a sustained expansion in terms of both key transport and lifestyle advantages,&rdquo; said Vrisakis.

&ldquo;At the heart of this domain is Coronation Park, a new and innovative approach to sophisticated yet affordable urban style.&quot;

L1ON Croydon apartments feature&nbsp;Fisher &amp; Paykel appliances,&nbsp;engineered European oak flooring, Caesarstone kitchen benchtops, bespoke blinds and LED lighting throughout.

HAUS Agency didn&#39;t start marketing the apartments until they were nearly completed, a strategy which&nbsp;HAUS Agency Director Sean Dowling said saw them see success.

&quot;It&rsquo;s rare to find such high-quality apartments that are untouched and available to purchase now, with every apartment completed and ready to inspect,&quot; Dowling said.

The majority of sales have been to first home buyers looking to get a foot on the property ladder, but also local owner occupiers looking for something new, post-COVID-19.

Melbourne’s inner west has been earmarked as a top buying target by property experts for the last few years.

Footscray, one of Melbourne’s inner-western suburbs with countless ongoing development projects, is a similar distance from the CBD as South Yarra but without the soaring property prices.

Realestate.com.au chief economist Nerida Conisbee said that the inner-west region is still quite cheap and is "starting to improve”.

According to CoreLogic, West Footscray was amongst Melbourne's best performing suburbs post-GFC, with values rising over 30 per cent between 2008 and 2011. 

Here are two apartments in Footscray:

1. Live City

The residential and mixed-use development, Live City, will only push Footscray’s value upward.

Delivered by R&amp;F Property, the $750 million, eight-building project is situated at 124-128 Ballarat Road and is set to offer as many as 1,450 apartments over the next six to eight years. Stage one of the development topped out in August, comprising 208 residences spread across 14 floors.

Designed by Elenberg Fraser, apartments are available in one, two and three-bedroom configurations, with features including a private balcony, views of the Melbourne CBD and expansive glass doors. Other offerings include reconstituted stone benchstops, concealed storage, timber flooring and premium appliances.

One bedroom apartments within the project begin at $350,000, with two-bedrooms priced from $460,000.

Another property to watch in Footscray is Bensons Property Group’s Liberty One development on 1 Warde Street. The development offers 350 one and two-bedroom residences.

Designed by CHT Architects, Liberty One’s features include premium oak floors, stone benchtops, high-end kitchen appliances and private balconies.

Located within the Joseph Road Precinct, the project offers residents close access to alfresco dining and retail spaces, as well as amenities such as an outdoor cinema, gym and residents’ lounge.

Newly built or off the plan properties up to $1 million in purchase price receive 50 per cent discount on their payable stamp duty thanks to Victorian Government initiatives. The November 24 budget revealed substantial discounts for buyers purchasing properties prior to June 30.

One-bedroom apartments in the project begin at $396,000, with two-bedroom properties from $630,000.
