The final apartments in the most recently completed new development in Balwyn present some of the largest and most exclusive ever delivered in one of Melbourne’s most established and character-rich neighbourhoods.

Boutique developer&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/wulff-projects">Wulff Projects</a>,&nbsp;alongside partner <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/pga-group">PGA Group</a>, has just finished <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/threadneedle-balwyn-1-5-threadneedle-street-balwyn-vic-3103">Threadneedle</a>, 17 home-sized residences designed completely for the owner-occupier.

Named after its location on Threadneedle Street, the new project has been shaped by the heritage fabric of Balwyn. It offers two low-rise buildings of eight and nine apartments respectively, designed to emulate traditional standalone homes.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27816 project_image_fid=355582]

John Scaramuzzino, Director at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bruce-henderson-architects">Bruce Henderson Architects</a>, explains the design intention.

“Given the quiet residential character of the street with many homes dating back to the 1930s and 1940s, we approached Threadneedle wanting to appear less as a collection of apartments and more as a traditional residence. This led to creating not one but two buildings that could “breathe” with larger garden-based apartments functioning more like small homes.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27816 project_image_fid=355605]

The north-facing residences are nestled among extensive landscaped gardens by Ben Scott Garden Design, with over one-third of the site dedicated to greenery. The resulting setting is one of calm seclusion, where architecture and landscape work in tandem to offer immediate liveability.

With construction now complete, the final apartments include a top-floor, single-level penthouse residence priced from $2.8 million. This home offers three bedrooms, a dedicated study, two bathrooms plus powder room, and three car spaces with an oversized storage room.&nbsp;

Interiors prioritise spatial comfort and natural light, with three-metre-high ceilings, oversized internal doors and a full-width terrace oriented to the north, east and west.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27816 project_image_fid=355604]

Floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows ensure thermal performance across seasons, supported by automated external blinds, zoned heating and cooling, and a fireplace for added ambiance.

Each apartment has been individually designed to maximise privacy and garden outlooks. Kitchens combine refined finishes with practical considerations: stone benchtops, butler’s pantry, full-height joinery and concealed rangehoods.&nbsp;

The inclusion of dedicated home offices responds to contemporary living patterns, while bathrooms feature sculptural bathtubs and brushed nickel fixtures.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=27816 project_image_fid=355590]

Threadneedle also integrates best-practice sustainability measures, achieving a 7 Star average NatHERS rating. Initiatives include solar PV systems, rainwater harvesting for toilet flushing and irrigation, and high-performing building insulation. These elements enhance daily comfort while reducing ongoing maintenance and energy demand.

"We believe Threadneedle sets a new standard of design excellence and building quality for Balwyn,"&nbsp;Scaramuzzino added.

"It’s an architectural response we’re particularly proud of, and one we’re sure residents will be equally proud to call home."

Sydney's top 15 new apartments developments set to launch in 2026

Developer-builder <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/dasco-australia">DASCO</a> has pushed beyond the now-standard inclusions of rooftop pools and landscaped podiums at its recently launched new Epping project, Senso.

It has laid out over 4,000 sqm of resident-only amenity in a move designed to compete directly with low-density housing on livability, not just density. The result is a development that supports genuine daily use through purposeful spaces distributed across its five-building, 479-apartment precinct.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4396]

Two rooftop pools form the anchor of Senso. One is a 27-metre lap pool adjoining a heated spa, designed for everyday fitness rather than just summer leisure. The second sits on a lower podium, allowing different buildings to share in vertical access and reducing crowding during peak times.

It is the secondary spaces that start to distinguish Senso from other large-scale suburban projects. A rooftop cinema is integrated into a landscaped terrace, offering open-air screenings with natural ventilation and passive cooling.&nbsp;

The inclusion of a “sensory walk”, an elevated boardwalk that threads through the site, suggests a rare investment in non-commercial, non-essential amenity: space for quiet movement that doesn’t double as access or traffic circulation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4402]

The gym and wellness centre, often relegated to a small ground-floor room in many builds, takes on more substance here. Residents have access to a fully equipped gym, as well as outdoor yoga areas and meditative zones that integrate greenery and natural light.&nbsp;

The Club Lounge is similarly designed to support multiple use cases, with a private dining terrace, kitchenette, workspace, and lockable wine storage. These aren’t superficial additions; their scale and spatial allocation indicate serious intent for frequent resident use.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134954 project_image_fid=4391]

Importantly, Senso’s amenities are embedded within a site that spans more than 10,000 sqm, allowing for better separation between spaces and reduced noise spillover, a critical but often overlooked factor in high-density developments. This spatial generosity also enables multiple alfresco kitchens and communal terraces without compromising individual privacy or usable space.

While many developments make claims about lifestyle, few back it with this level of built infrastructure. Senso’s mix of dedicated fitness, wellness, social and passive green spaces suggests a conscious response to the post-pandemic shift in housing expectations, especially among owner-occupiers.&nbsp;

DASCO is one of several leading developers who have taken out Resilience Insurance's Latent Defects Insurance policy, providing buyers with a 10-year structural and waterproofing warranty, and giving them the ultimate peace of mind.

Senso is scheduled for completion in late 2028.

The outdoor amenities elevating life at Senso, Epping

Following the proposal by the Minns Labor Government to rezone Parramatta Road to create up to 8,000 new homes, prominent developer Ceerose has gone to the NSW Gov to increase the density of its new mixed-use residential building in Leichhardt.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/ceerose">Ceerose</a>, founded by Edward Doueihi nearly three decades ago, has filed plans for 154 apartments above ground-floor retail at 307-315 Parramatta Road, a key corner site near Norton Street, the main high street strip in Leichhardt.

It's an upsize from the previously approved scheme of 63 apartments across a seven-storey building.

<img alt="Ceerose" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ba1ae75b-5f08-43fb-b8d5-3de6d9f6ef71" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-04%20at%2010.31.39%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=yA3hBBLPH4ev7MsAE0_hieXeqiFqBUb7" />

The project is being advanced through the State Significant Development (SSD) pathway, with concurrent rezoning sought to facilitate the proposal. The 10-storey development would rise over a four-level basement and deliver two retail tenancies, one a larger-format offering and the other a smaller “hole in the wall” space, addressing the Parramatta Road frontage. 21 of the apartments are dedicated as affordable housing.

According to the Urban Design Report by Architecture AND, the scheme includes a podium and tower configuration, with a fine-grain, two-storey parapet street wall that references the traditional shopfront rhythm along the corridor. “An elegant tower form is proposed, combined with a characterful two storey frontage... articulating it as two related buildings, providing consistency with the rhythm and grain of Parramatta Road,” the report notes.

The residential component is split across two slender towers set back from the street edge, a design move aimed at preserving solar access and reducing perceived bulk. This massing strategy also seeks to improve residential amenity by focusing scale toward the quieter northern interface, away from Parramatta Road’s noise and pollution.

<img alt="Ceerose" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="347f2f8f-5d36-4388-b40a-2e77380b9c19" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-04%20at%2010.31.02%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=xvyUE2ujT1lzivXTo.mHBJFF4SmfgLtz" />

Architecture AND has worked with Ceerose on previous Inner West projects, and cites a deep familiarity with the local character. Their design draws heavily on context, heritage, and sunlight access considerations, and engages with the Inner West Council’s “Our Fairer Future” strategic planning framework.

The site spans 2,712 sqm and is located near key intersections with Catherine Street, Hay Street, and Redmond Street. It adjoins a public carpark to the north and is within walking distance of Stanmore and Petersham stations. It is also flagged in state and local planning strategies, including the Parramatta Road Corridor Urban Transformation Strategy, as a suitable candidate for increased density.

Ceerose recently completed The Alex Collective on McEvoy Street in Alexandria, Abbie's Lane in Annandale, and the award-winning Munro House in Elizabeth Bay.

The Parramatta Road corridor is coming to life with the proposed rezoning which is serviced by a significant number of bus, light rail and train routes.

Deicorp is progressing with its $1.8 billion <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> precinct on Parramatta Road in Five Dock, as is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/toga-to-push-on-with-five-dock-mixed-use-masterplan">TOGA further down the street</a>. Those two projects alone will bring nearly 2,000 new homes to Parramatta Road.

North Sydney's landmark 'SBS Building' on Alfred Street is set to be demolished to make way for a new mixed-use residential tower in the booming North Sydney.

Commercial property group FiveX is behind the plans for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/275-alfred-street-north-north-sydney-nsw-2060">39-storey tower</a>, the latest project to advance under the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

They are proposing 184 apartments above retail spaces, which will replace the existing 20-storey commercial building. FiveX was set up more than five decades ago by Joshua and Marko Berger. It is currently led by Joshua's son Lesli.&nbsp;

<img alt="First look: Fivex plans 39-storey residential tower at 275 Alfred Street, North Sydney" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="2efa0980-53fa-4cca-9f9e-9c3c845d4746" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Article%20Feature%20Image%20%28Grid%29%20%281%29_0.png?VersionId=y_YyPMq3NQLfYRs84pP4os9UgWiMLp75" />

According to the Architectural Design Report by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/fjc-studio">FJC Studio</a>, the slender tower form has been deliberately designed to respect the site's transitional setting at the southern gateway to the North Sydney CBD, where high-rise towers give way to lower-scale residential precincts.

"The slender tower form and articulated podium establish a respectful relationship with nearby heritage and low rise buildings, including the Whaling Road Heritage Conservation Area,” the architecture firm noted, adding that the tower “completes a missing link in the urban fabric” while enhancing the Alfred Street streetscape.

The proposed building will include a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, with 15 percent of the gross residential floor area allocated as affordable housing. There is an agreement already in place that those apartments will be managed by Evolve Housing.

The project aligns with broader state housing objectives, including the National Housing Accord target of delivering 1.2 million new homes by 2029. The Scoping Report filed with the State Significant Development Application (SSDA) suggests the site "presents no impediments to rapid delivery,” with construction able to commence within 12 months of receiving consent.

North Sydney has been one of the most popular suburbs in Sydney for new and off the plan apartment development, but hasn't had the supply to keep up with demand, until recently.

AURA by Aqualand was, for a long time, the only off the plan apartment building on the market. That completed last year, and has sold the majority of its 386 luxury apartments. Recently ALAND launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-walden-173-179-walker-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The Walden</a> on the same street, selling over $100 million within just a few hours of its launch, while developer CASA also launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-mclaren-north-sydney-45-mclaren-street-north-sydney-nsw-2060">The McLaren</a>&nbsp;in the same precinct.

Melbourne Square

The penthouse apartments in OSK Property&#39;s $2.8 billion Melbourne Square precinct in Southbank have just been released, with a clever twist.

The penthouse and subpenthouses&nbsp;are being offered as a shell apartments, so prospective purchasers can model the apartments how they see fit.

The 10 sub-penthouses, and the two-level penthouse, the largest penthouse offered to the market in Victoria in 2022, are part of Melbourne Square&#39;s premium Skyhome collection.

The two-level penthouse, spanning 1,185 sqm across levels 67 and 68 of Melbourne Square&#39;s recently completed East Tower, is nothing more than concrete and curtains, the latter to depict where walls could be located. The buyer, who will have to fork out around $23 million for the massive space, will be able to configure the apartment, from its layout and number of bedrooms to its spec and fixtures and fittings.

OSK Property will also provide the successful buyer with a package worth $1 million to customise the penthouse, from design and documentation, through to the construction tender, and finally the furnishing and styling with leading Australian interior brand Coco Republic.

<a href="/buildings/melbourne-square-93-119-kavanagh-street-southbank"><img alt="" height="1118" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-08_at_6.46.00_am.png" width="1856" /></a>

The package will enable the purchaser to curate the&nbsp;space based on their own personal style and requirements, while being supported throughout the construction tender process to final completion.

The penthouse offers sweeping 360-degree views across Melbourne through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The space for the staircase has already been envisaged, with enough space on offer to create a dramatic spiral staircase, synonymous with some of Austrralia&#39;s best two level penthouses.

The sub-penthouses just below range from 147 sqm to 269 sqm and feature interiors by the acclaimed design studio Carr.

The sub-penthouses are priced from $2.16 million to $4.72 million. To get an understanding and create a&nbsp;picture of what the space could look like, prospective buyers&nbsp;can view a selection of display apartments featuring Coco Republic&rsquo;s Intriguing Objet D&rsquo;Art collection on-site.

OSK Property Sales and Marketing Director, Scott Jessop said the apartments will likely suit the downsizer or growing family.

<a href="/buildings/melbourne-square-93-119-kavanagh-street-southbank"><img alt="" height="1188" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-07-08_at_7.00.23_am.png" width="874" /></a>

&nbsp;&ldquo;This stunning collection of premium penthouses and apartments will be the envy of many with breathtaking views, a large range of state-of-the-art lifestyle amenity right on the doorstep and the ability to be expertly customised with the help of one of Melbourne&rsquo;s leading furniture and design brands,&quot; Jessop said.

&ldquo;As people rethink their living requirements following an unpredictable couple of years, this collection will present many well-established downsizers with the perfect opportunity to move straight into a prestige city abode as city life continues to return to normal, so we expect to receive a lot of interest from this group.

&ldquo;The flexible floorplans and high-end customised interior design packages available in the Skyhome Series also present a great opportunity for growing families, who may be eager to live closer to the CBD, but in a space that they can make uniquely their own and without compromising on size,&rdquo; Jessop added.

The broader Skyhome Series release at Melbourne Square comprises a total of 41 new prestige apartments across the project&rsquo;s East and West tower. Aside from the cold shell penthouse and sub-penthouses, there are also a number of premium apartments available from $1.38 million to&nbsp;$1.72 million, which will also offer buyers with a $50,000 Coco Republic design and furniture package on purchase.

Purchasers of the new penthouses and premium apartments will have access to a host of luxurious resident-only amenity at Melbourne Square, including a&nbsp;resort-style outdoor lap and wading pool, a sun terrace, an indoor pool with views over Melbourne, sauna, yoga studio, music room, gyms, golf simulator, cinema, private dining areas and kitchen facilities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=200389]

Continuing Melbourne Square&rsquo;s long-term partnership with Coco Republic, three new apartment themes have been carefully curated as part of the Skyhome Series release. The Socialite, The Perfectionist and The Minimalist&nbsp;have been conceived as a design starting point that can be tailored to suit the tastes of the purchaser.

Stage One at Melbourne Square was designed by Cox Architecture and completed by builder Multiplex in April 2021. It features twin elliptical residential towers with a total 1,048 apartments. Apartments in the precinct are set on top of 14,000 sqm&nbsp;of public and private amenity, including a host of resident-only facilities, a full-line Woolworths supermarket, an 87-place childcare centre and a 3,745 square metre park.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=201009]

To date, OSK Property has sold and settled 924 apartments, totaling over $700 million in transactions.&nbsp;This includes significant recent purchases and settlements of a $8.9 million 434 square metre apartment and a 364 square metre property for $6.3 million.

Since launch, the landmark project has also received multiple industry accolades, winning two International Property Awards and being named as a finalist in the Urban Development Institute of Australia and Property Council of Australia&rsquo;s respective awards programs.

Inspections of the cold shell penthouse across levels 67 and 68, styled sub-penthouses and premium apartments are available daily by appointment only.

The two-level penthouse, spanning 1,185 sqm across levels 67 and 68 of Melbourne Square's recently completed East Tower, could sell for around $23 million

Customisation to the max: Melbourne Square serve up shell penthouse and subpenthouses with Coco Republic assistance for buyers

It&rsquo;s been nearly two years of rolling lockdowns, but Melbourne is officially open for business. Not just to residing Melburnians, but to interstate travellers, office workers, and the rest of the world, all factors which contribute to experts&rsquo; belief that inner-city apartment prices are ripe for growth.

Buyers wanting to secure an apartment in the City of Melbourne LGA, which includes the CBD as well as popular surrounding areas of Southbank, Dockl​ands, Carlton and North Melbourne, <a href="https://www.sro.vic.gov.au/land-transfer-duty-concession-or-exemption-city-melbourne-residential-property-transactions">can save 50% in stamp duty</a> on new&nbsp;apartments&nbsp;worth up to $1 million.&nbsp;If the property has been on the market for more than 12 months, then stamp duty is waived completely.

But the expectation is prices will have jumped significantly by then. Despite the pitfalls of 2021, from lockdowns, lack of interstate and international travel, and the exodus of office workers from the CBD for the best part of nine months, the median apartment value in the City of Melbourne LGA is still up 7.5 per cent year to date, research from property data firm CoreLogic shows.

Scott Jessop, the sales and marketing director at OSK Property who is currently developing the $2.8 billion mixed-use precinct <a href="/buildings/melbourne-square-93-119-kavanagh-street-southbank">Melbourne Square</a> in <a href="/new-apartments/southbank-vic-3006">Southbank</a>, said there&rsquo;s been a major uptick in enquiry volumes since Melbourne&rsquo;s lockdown was lifted.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=139891]

&ldquo;Since mid-October we&rsquo;re trending up week on week,&rdquo; Jessop says, adding that there&rsquo;s been activity from across the board, from buyers walking in to display suites to those making appointments.

Jessop says he just dealt with a foreign purchaser who is buying for his daughter who is studying in Melbourne. &ldquo;I haven&rsquo;t seen one of those transactions in over 18 months&rdquo;, Jessop says, expecting that he will be seeing more as international students return.

&ldquo;The combination of the generous stamp duty concessions, the continued affordability gap between house prices and apartments, and the reactivation of the CBD, will no doubt see growth ahead.

&ldquo;A perfect storm is coming for the Melbourne apartments, it&rsquo;s just a matter of when.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=137896]

Jessop says as demand grows, developers are likely to reduce the incentives that they are currently offering buyers. Buyers of apartments at <a href="/buildings/melbourne-square-93-119-kavanagh-street-southbank">Melbourne Square</a> can save up to $120,000 on an apartment with an average sale price of $850,000. The savings include the government stimulus and a range of free incentives such as furniture packages and design stylist consultations.

Dennis Wilson, the managing director of <a href="/developers/central-equity">Central Equity</a> who is currently selling <a href="/buildings/focus-melbourne-81-city-road-southbank">Focus</a>, the soon to be complete 600-apartment Southbank apartment tower, and the completed <a href="/buildings/melbourne-grand-560-lonsdale-street-melbourne">Melbourne Grand</a>, Lonsdale Street apartments, expects the City of Melbourne to bounce back strongly in 2022.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3260 project_image_fid=62353]

&ldquo;The federal and state governments are working to open borders and increase business migrant intakes, stimulate the tourism industry, re-invigorate major events and welcome back international students. The City of Melbourne should be a beneficiary of this,&rdquo; Wilson says.

The general consensus is that buyers are coming back from the surrounding suburbs, having spent the last few years outside of the city.

&ldquo;As well as seeing buyers already living in the inner-city, we are seeing interest from people who are looking to move from the suburbs, wanting to be closer to their workplace as offices reopen, shops and all the conveniences that come with inner city living,&rdquo; Wilson added.

&ldquo;For many the inner city is a more affordable option than living in their existing suburbs.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3260 project_image_fid=62320]

Elysa Anderson, General Manager of Residential Victoria at <a href="/developers/mirvac">Mirvac</a>, said the Mirvac team is focused on accelerating their supply of high-quality apartments in Melbourne, as they anticipate a shortage of owner-occupier residences in premium locations in the future.

&ldquo;We anticipate Victoria&rsquo;s population growth and demand for apartments to continue to strengthen in line with the Victorian Government&rsquo;s Roadmap to Recovery and various state budget stimulus packages,&rdquo; Anderson said.

&ldquo;The strength of the established housing market and the opening up of international borders will continue to drive very strong demand for well-designed and quality constructed apartments,&rdquo; Anderson added.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=180326]

Mirvac has tweaked the design of Tower 9, in their master-planned Yarra&rsquo;s Edge precinct in the burgeoning Docklands&nbsp;area.

The ASX-listed developer saw a considerably stronger market for their projects in 2021 than in 2020, with <a href="/buildings/voyager-docklands-103-south-wharf-drive-docklands-vic-3008">Voyager</a>, the recently completed eighth tower in Yarra&rsquo;s Edge, seeing a 20 per cent increase in the first half of 2021 compared to the same period the year before.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3494 project_image_fid=167751]

Around 80 per cent of the buyers were owner-occupiers, but Anderson says they are seeing investors slowly creep back in.

&ldquo;Investors have begun to return to the market, primarily focused on master planned communities but demand is also gathering pace in the apartment markets.&quot;

COX Architecture director Paul Curry said stage one of Melbourne Square formed a key component in the growing footprint of Melbourne, comprising a total of six towers when fully completed including a workplace tower, luxury hotel and retail&nbsp;precinct.

<blockquote>
&ldquo;The Melbourne Square masterplan is an exciting public realm focused addition to the city&rsquo;s urban fabric,&rdquo; Curry said.

With stage one complete, interested buyers and the broader Southbank community are encouraged to explore the amazing offerings at this expansive $2.8 billion development when they can.

14,000sqm of private and public amenity: What’s on offer at Melbourne Square

A lot has changed for Melbourne Square resident Brendan since his days of regular travel to the US and Canada for work through the 2000s.

Now with three adult children, Brendan and wife Jill were looking for a smaller and more practical space to call home, as their old family house in Glen Waverley was just too big for the two of them.

Before settling with his wife Jill on the 55th floor of our East Tower in 2020, the couple had to weigh up their options and think seriously about how their new space would meet the high quality and everyday amenity options Brendan had come to expect from his experiences visiting other integrated lifestyle precincts throughout North America.

Urban caught up with Brendan recently to chat about his purchaser journey and how he and Jill had settled into the growing precinct since deciding to sell the family home and move closer to the city.&nbsp;&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=139893]

How did you hear about Melbourne Square and were you in the market for a new property at the time?

B: Jill and I actually stumbled across the display suite by pure chance! It had only just opened, so naturally we popped our heads in to check it out and it was not too long after that when we made our deposit.

With no kids at home anymore, our old family home in Glen Waverley was just too big for our needs and we were also moving to Montreal temporarily for my work which meant that we needed to make a decision on our new home while abroad.&nbsp;&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=137903]

It was the experience we had during our visit to the display suite that got us over the line and led to us officially making our deposit in 2018 while in Canada. It was quite a surreal experience!

Was there anything that made Melbourne Square stand out for you and helped you make your decision to buy at the project over other residential developments?

B: Setting out on our buying journey, we knew we wanted to live closer to the city. With various developments to consider in Southbank and in Docklands, a standout positive when we were enquiring about Melbourne Square were the different floorplan options available at the project.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=139896]

I’ve travelled and worked overseas for a number of years and seen similar high-quality developments established in the US and in Canada, however I had not seen this same approach to integrated precinct living showcased locally until we visited Melbourne Square.

One of the major things that stood out to my wife Jill and I was the quality of the development. There has been a particular effort placed behind the integration of shared facilities which is helping build an authentic sense of community. Melbourne Square is like its own mini-neighbourhood.

What do you love the most about living at Melbourne Square?

B: We absolutely love the location of Melbourne Square and being wedged between South Melbourne and the city. The feel of the Southbank community is terrific and it is great having the park and Boyd Street Community Centre just a short walk away to take our young grandson for walks.

Having a full-line Woolworths supermarket downstairs is incredibly convenient as well. If you need anything for dinner it is so handy to be able to pop into the lift and be at the shops in a couple of minutes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=139897]

The new restaurants around the precinct are great too and we are looking forward to trying all of them. We ate at Waku Waku Japanese recently which was really nice and it is exciting to see other dining places starting to open. The precinct certainly has a vibrancy building about it.

Being so close to the world-class Melbourne arts precinct has allowed Jill and I to fully immerse ourselves in the arts lifestyle. I particularly loved walking to the Malthouse Theatre, which is just a short stroll away, to watch some of their latest live outdoor gigs.

What are your favourite amenities at the precinct?

B: I find the pool on level 54 is a great way for me to stay active. It has a great outlook across the city and towards Melbourne’s east and lets you soak in panoramic views of the Dandenong Ranges. That said, I must give an honourable mention to the whole level eight pool and podium area. The pool space in particular will become a central part of Melbourne Square’s community and it has been great to see people soaking up the sun there.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=139903]

Jill is also a big fan of the amenity on offer on level 54. Her favourite place would have to be the gym. There is an extensive range of great equipment in there and its generous size and format means it does not get overcrowded.

Would you recommend living at a lifestyle precinct like Melbourne Square to friends?

B: Yes. I would definitely recommend living at a lifestyle precinct like Melbourne Square to friends and family, but particularly to people that are keen to downsize like Jill and I have from our family home.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=2929 project_image_fid=96195]

The concierge staff at Melbourne Square are lovely, attentive to our queries, and always greet you warmly when coming and going.&nbsp;

On the whole, our experience with the staff we have dealt with across our entire Melbourne Square journey has been phenomenal and the quality of information included in the marketing assets and floorplate designs have all been very accurate. We have not been oversold the precinct and everything matches what has been delivered.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Before buying we were also able to work with OSK and their team to make some modifications to our bathroom; and any defecting issues we had after moving in were actioned very quickly. Further to this, the quality of the fixtures and fittings is everything we had hoped for and there is plenty of natural light that elevates our living spaces.

Master suites include automated block-out blinds that extend and retract with the flick of a switch. Plus, if you need the flexibility to work from home, custom-made study nooks are available and walk-in wardrobes will give you plenty of room to store all of your clothing items.

OSK Property Sales &amp; Marketing Director, Scott Jessop, explains how exciting the launch is for the team who have seen the development take shape over the past four years.&nbsp;

&ldquo;It has been an incredibly exciting journey to see our vision for Melbourne Square come to life over the past four years.

The amount of visitation they have both seen in a short timeframe is quite amazing. Melbourne Square aims to deliver an elevated lifestyle experience for residents while championing the concept of a two-minute neighbourhood. 

Further to this, we have been thrilled to watch how seamlessly the project has anchored itself in the broader Southbank community.&rdquo;
