Melbourne developer Spacious Group has completed Voyage Altona, one of the closest new apartment developments to Altona Beach.

Off the plan purchasers have started moving into the 49-apartment project on Pier Street, with the remaining move-in-ready one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments starting from just over $500,000.

Display apartments have now been fitted out, allowing prospective buyers to inspect the completed residences by appointment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112195 project_image_fid=372638]

The completed apartments feature open-plan living and dining areas which extend onto private balconies and terraces, while full-height glazing maximises natural light throughout the interiors.&nbsp;

Hybrid timber-look flooring, stone benchtops, Miele appliances, porcelain-tiled bathrooms and generous storage feature throughout the building which also features landscaped communal areas, expansive shared terraces, lift access and secure on-grade parking.

Drawing inspiration from its bayside setting, Voyage adopts a restrained palette of warm neutral tones and textured finishes. Many of the apartments take advantage of views across Port Phillip Bay, while the indoor-outdoor living spaces have been designed to make the most of the coastal outlook.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112195 project_image_fid=3286]

Voyage was developed to address what Spacious Group identified as an undersupply of higher-quality apartment product in Altona, with a focus on owner-occupiers looking to remain within the bayside community.

"Voyage responds to very strong local buyer demand for quality, owner-occupier-focused product," says Barry Plant Projects Director Jarrod Farey, who has handled sales since the project's launch.

"The project delivers an elevated lifestyle proposition, with its design and quality of finish far exceeding anything previously produced in the area, as well as its proximity to Pier Street Village and the beach."

The majority of purchasers have been local downsizers and owner-occupiers looking to stay within the Altona community but who previously had limited opportunities to buy a brand-new apartment.

Homecorp has secured approval for a $360 million apartment development at Budds Beach, paving the way for one of the Gold Coast's most amenity-rich residential projects to launch later this year.

Gold Coast City Council has approved Lýon Residences, a 32-level tower that will deliver 178 two and three-bedroom apartments across a prominent corner site at 8-10 Acacia Avenue and 25-27 Oak Avenue.

The approval comes as developers continue to invest in premium lifestyle-driven apartment projects on the Gold Coast, where owner occupiers are increasingly prioritising amenity as much as apartment size and location.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/l-on-residences-25-27-oak-avenue-surfers-paradise-qld-4217">Lýon Residences</a> has been designed around a resort-style wellness offering, headlined by a Moroccan-inspired spa precinct featuring treatment rooms, a Nordic sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, a soaking pool and a residents-only juice bar.

The rooftop will include a heated infinity pool and spa, residents' lounge with private kitchen and bar, gymnasium, yoga and Pilates studio, outdoor entertaining areas and barbecue facilities overlooking the Surfers Paradise skyline.

<img alt="Lyon" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2d3e29af-8793-486e-a684-52cef862241f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-07-15%20at%204.32.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ayG2zpLf3SS6Zy8XmKDcQods4kVWb0gm" />

Homecorp Founder and CEO Ron Bakir said Budds Beach provided the ideal location for the company's latest luxury apartment project.

"Budds Beach represents one of the most unique and sought-after pockets of the Gold Coast, and Lýon Residences has been designed to reflect that sense of rarity and refinement," Bakir said.

The project arrives as wellness continues to become a defining feature of new residential developments both in Australia and internationally.

The latest Global Wellness Institute figures show wellness real estate remains the fastest-growing segment of the global wellness economy and is forecast to exceed $1.8 trillion by 2030. Australia continues to rank among the world's 15 largest wellness real estate markets, with developers increasingly integrating health, recreation and community facilities into apartment projects.

Queensland is also experiencing strong population growth, with the Gold Coast continuing to outperform many other Australian cities as demand for new housing remains elevated ahead of the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Bakir said the project had been designed to respond to that shift in buyer expectations.

"Strong population growth and sustained demand across the Gold Coast continue to highlight the need for well-designed new housing supply. Lýon Residences responds directly to this demand while setting a new benchmark for residential living," he said.

Each apartment has been designed to maximise views across the coastline, the Nerang River and the Gold Coast hinterland.

Located just minutes from Surfers Paradise beach and the Broadwater, the development also offers easy access to the light rail network, Broadbeach and Burleigh Heads.

Early site works are underway, with construction expected to commence later this year.

New apartment developments with uninterrupted, north-facing views over Perth's Swan River are exceptionally rare.

Recognising just how limited those opportunities are, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/edge-visionary-living">Edge Visionary Living</a>, one of Perth's most respected builder-developers, targeted <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/applecross-wa-6153">Applecross</a>, assembling an unrepeatable 6,342 sqm riverfront site on the corner of Moreau Mews and Canning Beach Road to create one of Perth's only new north-facing apartment developments directly overlooking the Swan River.

Today, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/riviere-residences-applecross-59-canning-beach-road-applecross-wa-6153">Rivière Residences</a> offers buyers a unique opportunity to choose between completed residences ready to move into now and off-the-plan homes in the final stage, Rivière West.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=3823]

Across the completed East and Central buildings, residents are already enjoying the development's luxury amenity, while two of the precinct's hospitality venues are now open.

The completed component of the development gives buyers the advantage of experiencing the finished product firsthand, including its uninterrupted river views, while still having the opportunity to secure a residence in the final stage.

"People are wowed by the view and the quality of the apartments,"&nbsp;Edge Visionary Living Sales Executive, Holly McSweeney, says.

"They're looking for the convenience of lock-and-leave living, but they're not looking to downsize on quality."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=3826]

The rarity of the development hasn't been lost on prospective buyers, McSweeney says.

For McSweeney, it all comes back to a location that is becoming increasingly difficult to replicate.

"Location, location, location," she says. "We are nestled right on the front of the Swan River. You can never get built out, so wherever you are in Rivière Residences, you've got views of the river forever."

The unique waterfront position has resonated particularly strongly with local downsizers. McSweeney says many buyers are long-time Applecross residents looking to transition from large family homes into a luxury apartment without sacrificing space, quality or the lifestyle they've enjoyed for decades.

<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/N_FowNW0wu8?si=vb25XFq1wZ-iufAW" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>

A major focus for Edge in recent years has been resident amenity. Across its apartment portfolio, from beachfront developments in Scarborough to luxury towers in South Perth, the developer has increasingly invested in the spaces beyond the apartment itself.

The strategy has largely been shaped by downsizer demand. Many buyers are moving from large family homes with swimming pools and established gardens. While they're looking to leave the maintenance behind, they don't want to compromise on lifestyle.

At Rivière, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/hillam-architects">Hillam Architects</a> designed the resident facilities as an extension of each apartment. A 25-metre heated swimming pool takes advantage of the north-facing river outlook, complemented by a large gym, sauna and steam rooms, private dining spaces, residents' lounges, a cinema, games room, and dedicated wine and whisky rooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=28384 project_image_fid=372542]

The waterfront location has also proved to be a major drawcard. Residents are within walking distance of the Raffles Hotel, South of Perth Yacht Club, the Heathcote Cultural Precinct and the cafés, restaurants and boutiques along Ardross Street.

Beyond the location and amenity, McSweeney says many buyers take confidence from Edge's fully integrated development model.

Having delivered apartments across Perth for decades, Edge now designs, develops and constructs its projects in-house, giving the company greater control over quality, delivery and the finished product.

"What I love is when people walk through their apartment for the first time and say, 'This is better than what we imagined,'" McSweeney says. "We hear that all the time."

Completed apartments in the East and Central buildings are now available to inspect by appointment, while Rivière West, the final stage of the precinct, is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2027.

North-facing Swan River views drive demand at Rivière Residences in Applecross

Nearly 60 per cent of apartments at McNab Group's $220 million The Tannery development in Brisbane's West End have sold ahead of the project's public launch, including a suburb-record $2.57 million sale for a two-bedroom apartment.

The early sales campaign has secured buyers for 50 of the project's 87 apartments, highlighting continued demand for larger owner-occupier apartments that combine generous floorplans with premium lifestyle amenities in one of Brisbane's most tightly held inner-city suburbs.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374768]

McNab Group Executive Chairman Michael McNab said selling more than half the project before launch reflected changing buyer expectations.

"Selling more than half the project before public sales open tells us buyers are actively seeking apartments that offer something genuinely different," McNab said.

"Today's buyers are looking beyond four walls. They want homes that genuinely enhance the way they live, with spaces that support health, connection and everyday wellbeing."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374767]

A key point of difference for the project is the adaptive reuse of the heritage-listed Dixon's Tannery building, which will become The Retreat, a residents-only wellness precinct rather than being redeveloped into additional apartments.

The Retreat will feature a sauna and steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, a commercial-grade gym, Pilates studio, cinema, library, co-working spaces and private dining room. Rooftop amenities will include a swimming pool, landscaped gardens, outdoor entertaining areas and dog-friendly spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374760]

Designed by Cottee Parker Architects with interiors by Tom Mark Henry and landscape architecture by Aspect Studios, The Tannery comprises 87 two, three and four-bedroom apartments across 11 levels overlooking the Brisbane River.

Cottee Parker principal Dee Passenger said preserving the original tannery building had been central to the project's design.

"The easy option would have been to maximise the site's development potential with additional apartments. Instead, McNab has chosen to preserve the original tannery as a shared wellness retreat, ensuring this important piece of Brisbane's history remains at the heart of the community."

Passenger said sustainability also played a key role in the design, with materials from the original industrial site salvaged and repurposed throughout the development.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143337 project_image_fid=374761]

Motiv CEO Carly Cottam said buyers had responded strongly to the combination of larger apartments, wellness facilities and the West End lifestyle.

"We are seeing more buyers looking for homes in the sky that provide the space and functionality of a traditional home, while benefiting from the convenience and lifestyle that apartment living brings," Cottam said.

She said purchasers included both owner occupiers and investors, with demand coming from local buyers as well as interstate purchasers.

Coinciding with the public launch, McNab also announced a partnership with Queensland Ballet, whose neighbouring Thomas Dixon Centre shares historical ties with the original Dixon family.

Located on a 4,465 sqm site at 439 Montague Road, The Tannery overlooks the Brisbane River and is around 10 minutes from the CBD.

Construction is underway, with completion expected in the second half of 2027.

Iwan Sunito's vision for a landmark mixed-use precinct in Sydney's Inner West has taken a major step forward, with approval granted for the $1.9 billion Five Dock development first unveiled earlier this year.

The approved scheme by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/one-global-capital">One Global Capital</a> will deliver an 80,500 sqm mixed-use precinct comprising 840 apartments, integrated hotel accommodation, commercial and retail space, alongside publicly accessible open space designed to create a new destination for the growing suburb.

"This is a significant milestone for One Global Capital and for the future of housing delivery in Sydney," Sunito said.

"The Housing Delivery Authority was established to identify major housing projects capable of delivering meaningful supply more efficiently, and we are delighted that Spencer Street has been recognised as one of those projects.”

He said the declaration reflected the rapid progress achieved since acquiring control of the site.

"In less than seven months we have progressed from taking control of the site to securing entry into one of the NSW Government's most important planning pathways. It reflects the experience of our team, the strength of our consultant group led by Urbis, and our long-term commitment to delivering transformational projects that contribute to Sydney's future."

When the project was revealed earlier this year, Sunito described the opportunity as one of the strongest development sites he had worked on.

"I probably hadn't appreciated the uniqueness of the site until more recently when putting together the concept plans," Sunito said.

"The proximity to the water, and the golf course opposite, is unlike any other part of Parramatta Road. We have a unique position and view corridors over the water that makes this one of the best sites I've worked on."

The development has evolved since its initial announcement, with the approved plans increasing the residential component from the originally proposed 750 apartments to 840 homes while retaining the project's focus on creating an integrated neighbourhood rather than a standalone residential development.

The precinct will combine apartments with hotel accommodation, commercial workplaces, retail offerings and public spaces, creating a mixed-use environment intended to serve both residents and the broader Five Dock community. The proposal also continues the collaboration between One Global Capital and internationally recognised architect <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/koichi-takada-architects">Koichi Takada</a>, whose previous work with Sunito includes Infinity, Arc and Skye North Sydney.

Takada previously said the design was driven by a philosophy of integrating nature into the built environment.

"The concept for this development is born from our design approach to naturalising architecture," Takada said.

"The public realm benefits from biophilic design that integrates generous landscaping, and the development is optimised for natural daylight, airflow and water views to foster wellbeing, sustainability and spaces that foster community interaction."

Sunito has consistently described the project as a "city within a city", with a strong emphasis on creating a destination that extends beyond housing.

"We want to create a development that's not only to be seen, but to be experienced by the whole local community," he said.

The approval comes as Five Dock continues its transformation ahead of the opening of the Sydney Metro West line, with the new Five Dock station set to significantly improve connections between the Inner West, Parramatta and the Sydney CBD.&nbsp;

The precinct will also benefit from its proximity to the Parramatta Road corridor, nearby waterfront parklands and established retail and dining offerings that have made Five Dock one of Sydney's most tightly held Inner West suburbs.

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.

Apartment seekers in Sydney&#39;s Inner West&nbsp;will get a rare chance to secure a soon-to-be completed apartment in Enfield, as the&nbsp;Coronation Park development hits the market.

Coronation Park, developed by Sukkar Construction,&nbsp;will feature under 60&nbsp;one and two-bedroom apartments to a design by Olsson &amp; Associates.

HAUS Agency Director Sean Dowling says the architecturally planning invested&nbsp;in Coronation Park is the benchmark for everything that follows in the creation of each home.

The Croydon apartment development, L1ON Croydon in Sydney&#39;s inner west, has officially sold out.

Located at 1 Lion Street, Croydon, L1ON Croydon has 35 modern one, two and three-bedroom apartments across two buildings, behind a sleek fa&ccedil;ade designed by Benson McCormack Architects (BMA).

The project has been built and developed by construction veterans and renowned property developers Hone Constructions, who offer a unique combined approach to quality building with over 15 years of experience in the property industry.

Sydney&rsquo;s HAUS Agency sold out the project, which also features a number of two-level residences.

&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.
