<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/pitard-group">Pitard Group</a> has officially opened the doors at EVA Elsternwick Village Apartments, delivering a collection of move-in ready residences in one of Melbourne’s most tightly held neighbourhoods.

With only a limited number of residences remaining, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/buildings/eva-elsternwick-village-apartments-241-glen-huntly-road-elsternwick-vic-3185">EVA</a> presents a rare opportunity to secure a completed apartment in the heart of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/elsternwick-vic-3185">Elsternwick</a>, situated on the coveted Glen Huntly Road.

Comprising 101 residences across a mid-rise building, EVA offers a mix of spacious two- and three-bedroom apartments. Community feedback on Apartments.com.au consistently highlights the project’s quality finishes and well-resolved floorplan design.

Created in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/via-architects">VIA Architects</a>, the project reflects a design ethos centred on resident experience and contextual sensitivity. Each apartment has been crafted with an emphasis on natural light, practical functionality, and acoustic performance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93073 project_image_fid=357527]

Interiors channel a subtle Hamptons aesthetic, with engineered timber flooring, high ceilings, and soft, neutral finishes. Kitchens are appointed with ILVE European appliances, shaker-profile cabinetry, and stone benchtops, while bathrooms continue the same refined, understated palette.

Pitard Group, who also delivered the construction through their in-house team, has prioritised acoustic insulation through double glazing and noise-reducing materials - a quality noted by early residents and buyers alike.&nbsp;

Private outdoor space is a hallmark of each apartment, whether in the form of a balcony or sun-filled terrace. Many residences enjoy bay or city views, with floorplans that prioritise indoor-outdoor flow and functional layouts. Thoughtful inclusions such as Euro laundries, study zones, and abundant storage ensure the apartments are equally suited to downsizers and professionals seeking quality and low-maintenance living.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93073 project_image_fid=357526]

EVA’s amenity offering extends beyond the apartments. A rooftop terrace, complete with in-built BBQs and panoramic views across Port Phillip Bay and the Melbourne skyline, invites residents to relax or entertain in style.&nbsp;

A fifth-floor residents lounge, with north-eastern orientation and floor-to-ceiling glazing, offers an ambient retreat enhanced by kitchen and bathroom facilities.&nbsp;

Ground-floor retail and dual lifts add further convenience, while basement car parking with secure storage rounds out the amenity offering.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=93073 project_image_fid=357529]

As a move-in ready address, EVA also benefits from its exceptional location. Just 130 metres from Elsternwick Station and within walking distance of tram and bus links, it places residents minutes from the CBD and the bay.&nbsp;

The surrounding neighbourhood is a cultural and culinary hub, with institutions like Attica and Bang Bang nearby, as well as daily essentials within easy reach.&nbsp;

Green spaces including Elsternwick Park and Rippon Lea Estate offer a sense of retreat, while top-tier schools and health services add to the suburb’s appeal.&nbsp;

Completed and ready to move in, EVA Elsternwick Village Apartments offers two-bedroom residences from $899,000.

Inside EVA: Pitard Group's completed apartments in Elsternwick

With Brisbane’s housing market soaring and home ownership becoming increasingly out of reach for many buyers, townhouses have emerged as the new urban dream, offering private, low-maintenance retreats complete with pools, parklands, and lifestyle amenities.

As Brisbane faces a growing shortage of quality new residential offerings, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/honeycombes-property-group">Honeycombes Property Group</a> has released to the market Songbird Terraces, a boutique development of just 34 terrace homes in the heart of the leafy residential enclave of Oxley.

Offering a more affordable option to the white picket fence house, buyers can purchase a brand new architecturally designed three bedroom terrace home overlooking park and bushland with a communal heated pool, BBQ terrace, private parklands and an on-site café, while being just minutes from <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/oxley-qld-4075">Oxley</a>’s village centre, train station, and a range of schools and amenities.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149443 project_image_fid=5241]

Each of the spacious three bedroom plus multi purpose room or four bedroom townhomes feature premium finishes, landscaped courtyards, designer kitchens, two-car accommodation, and optional upgrades for tailored living.

Honeycombes Property Group Managing Director Peter Honeycombe said with completion anticipated in early 2027, this was an incredibly rare chance to buy a fixed-price, brand-new, off the plan home in one of Brisbane’s most tightly held and liveable suburbs, without the stress of auctions and chaotic open homes.

“With prices starting from $1.195 million, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/songbird-terraces-oxley-10-honeyeater-circuit-oxley-qld-4075">Songbird Terraces</a> are designed for owner occupiers seeking space, style and lifestyle, without the maintenance,” Honeycombe said.

“Surrounded by natural bushland and close to manicured parks, walking trails, boutique shops, cafes, cinemas and golf courses, Oxley continues to stand out as one of Brisbane’s most liveable suburbs.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149443 project_image_fid=355541]

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/project-marketer/colliers">Colliers</a> Residential Director Andrew Scriven said with a limited number of homes available, Songbird Terraces was attracting strong interest from families, upsizers, first home buyers and downsizers looking for quality, location and long-term value.&nbsp;

“Demand is high, supply is low, and the market is crying out for high-quality homes in established well connected areas like Oxley,” Scriven said.

“What was once seen as a compromise between a house and an apartment a townhouse has now become a lifestyle choice, more and more homebuyers are shifting their focus from traditional detached houses to modern, low-maintenance townhouses that offer greater value and convenience.

“As the city’s population grows and urban sprawl becomes less sustainable, Brisbane’s townhouse market is set to expand even further.&nbsp;

“There’s definitely a panic from buyers who’ve been pushed out of the house market but still want to stay in well-connected suburbs with great schools and amenities, they are worried they will miss out as property prices continually rise.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149443 project_image_fid=5238]

After eight years of calling Australia home, Agnes Skoraczewska and Matt Biskupski decided it was finally time to take the next step and purchase a home of their own. With property prices continuing to climb, the couple didn’t want to wait any longer and secured a three-bedroom plus multi purpose room townhouse at Songbird Terraces, locking in a fixed price ahead of their move in 2027.

“The truth is, we didn’t want to wait any longer,” Biskupski said. “Seeing what was happening in the market, we realised now was the right time to buy. It gives us peace of mind knowing we no longer have to worry about renting.”

When they discovered Songbird Terraces, the decision came easily.

“The area is lovely and quiet, yet still so close to the city, it’s the perfect balance for work and life,” Skoraczewska said. “It’s a place where we can recharge our batteries while staying connected to everything we need.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149443 project_image_fid=5237]

For Agnes and Matt, buying off the plan offered the ideal solution, the confidence of securing their dream home at today’s prices, and the excitement of planning for the future in a community that perfectly fits their lifestyle.

As the final residential precinct within the Songbird Oxley master plan, Songbird Terraces will continue to breathe new life into the area and help create a suburb destination rich in lifestyle amenity.

Colliers Residential Director Lily O'Connell said Songbird is positioned to take full advantage of elevated north and east-facing parkland views, the homes feature low-maintenance design and high energy efficiency to reduce ongoing costs while enhancing everyday comfort.

“And with an array of layouts, catering to a diverse range of lifestyles this is an offering for all,” O'Connell said.

“This is the final release in a masterplanned community that’s become one of Oxley’s most desirable addresses, offering a last chance to enter this community where opportunities are few and far between.”

The homes will be delivered by Clearcon Builders, specialists in premium townhome construction. They will commence construction before Christmas, and is aiming to complete the development in early 2027.

Townhouse living, Brisbane’s new affordable urban dream?

Kirra Beach has been hot property since the onset of the pandemic in early 2021.

Development sites were snapped up, projects sold out, and many of those developments are now beginning to be handed over to purchasers.

The latest entrant to Kirra, timing its arrival perfectly with little to no new off the plan apartment stock currently on the market in the area, is <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/pyco-group">Pyco Group</a>, which is expanding its South East Queensland footprint through projects such as Atelier in West End and Nouveau in Albion, both currently under construction and scheduled for completion next year.

They recently launched <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/onde-kirra-10-churchill-street-kirra-beach-qld-4225">Ondé Kirra</a>, quietly set on Miles Street just a stone’s throw from the sand and the world-renowned surf break at Rainbow Bay.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143621 project_image_fid=337600]

The current release focuses on a wide variety of three-bedroom configurations, from layouts starting at $1.89 million and offering nearly 130 sqm of space, to larger three-bed options approaching 160 sqm and oriented north-east to capture views over the ocean and the length of the Gold Coast skyline.

Each apartment follows a layout that prioritises light, airflow, and connection to the outdoors. Interiors are shaped by a warm, coastal-inspired palette that balances soft neutral tones with natural timbers. Kitchens feature premium finishes and flow directly into dining and living zones, framed by full-height glazing. Many apartments offer wraparound views and corner orientations to maximise natural light from multiple angles.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143621 project_image_fid=337613]

There are just 90 apartments in the 14-storey building designed by DAH Architecture.

Beyond the apartments, Ondé’s offering is rounded out by a series of resident-only amenities designed for comfort and practicality. These include a fitness studio, outdoor pool, co-working pods, and lush communal spaces on the ground floor.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=143621 project_image_fid=337597]

Rawcorp kicked off construction on site just over three months ago, demolishing the two houses and two original walk-up unit blocks.

The award-winning construction firm is expecting to complete Ondé&nbsp;in mid-2027.

Ondé Kirra times entry to booming southern Gold Coast market as apartment options shrink

The Wentworth Park Sporting Complex and its immediate surrounds will make way for new housing and sporting facilities, the latest rezoning play by the Minns Labor Government to meet Sydney's housing supply crisis.

The 3.3-hectare Wentworth Park Sporting Complex will be&nbsp;converted into community sporting fields and public green space, allowing for the rezoning of the surrounding area to support up to 2,500 additional well-located homes.

These are in addition to the 4,800 homes already planned or approved nearby, including around 2,000 homes on the old Sydney Fish Market and neighbouring sites, bringing the precinct total to as many as 7,300 new homes.

Read more:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/news/nsw/mirvac-to-develop-over-1-400-new-homes-on-former-sydney-fish-market-site">Mirvac to develop over 1,400 new homes on former Sydney Fish Market site</a>

In addition to the new housing and sporting facilities, the Wentworth Park precinct will be immediately adjacent to transport links including a new ferry stop at Sydney Fish Markets, an upgraded light rail station at Wentworth Park, a continuous 15-kilometre coastal boardwalk from the Blackwattle Bay to Woolloomooloo, and the Pyrmont Metro station, which is set to open in 2032.

When the current greyhound lease expires in September 2027, the existing facilities will be demolished and the land transferred to the City of Sydney to be converted into community sports fields. Current estimates suggest around 20 additional sport fields are required in the city area by 2031 in order to meet the needs of the sporting community.

The new 14-hectare park will also be made available for hosting festivals and community events as a condition of the transfer to ensure the new harbourside parklands can be utilised by the whole community.

“We recognise Wentworth Park holds deep history and meaning for many people, and we know some will be disappointed by this change," NSW Premier Chris Minns said, adding however that "cities change, and we&nbsp;have a responsibility to plan for the future.

“Right in the middle of Sydney and connected by rail, light rail, ferries and the future Metro, our plan for the future of Wentworth Park will deliver much-needed new housing while also providing up to 20 new community sporting fields.

“This is more homes, more playing fields and better public spaces, alongside the infrastructure that makes neighbourhoods work. This is homes and community facilities delivered together, not one without the other.”

“This is how we build a fairer and more balanced Sydney. By creating new housing in well-serviced areas, instead of pushing growth to places without the transport and infrastructure to support it.”

Minister for Planning and Public Spaces Paul Scully said&nbsp;Wentworth Park has a long and proud history.

"Today we’re securing its future for the next generation," Scully said.

"This plan keeps land in the public hands and delivers new homes, new sporting facilities and new open space for a community that is growing fast. Our city is changing, and we have a responsibility to make sure people can live near the jobs, education and transport they rely on. We’ll continue working closely with the City of Sydney to deliver this rezoning in a timely way, and we’re ready to step in with a State-led rezoning if it’s needed."

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/palm-beach-qld-4221">Palm Beach</a> has been reshaped over the past few years by an influx of migration.

What's now becoming more apparent, as new apartment developments beyond the beachfront start to take shape, is how new residents of Palm Beach will spend their days.

Take <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/villea-palm-beach-26-mawarra-street-palm-beach-qld-4221">Villea</a>, the debut Gold Coast apartment development by the now-national luxury apartment developer Abadeen. Abadeen has been delivering high-end apartments across Sydney's North Shore region for over two decades, and recently expanded into Melbourne where they are focusing on the same model that has served them so well over the last 23 years.

The developer is approaching completion of Villa,&nbsp;69 apartments on Mawarra Street. It sits&nbsp;400 metres from the northern stretch of Palm Beach, where mornings often begin before the suburb fully wakes. From upper levels, the sunrise casts across Burleigh Headland through to Snapper Rocks, a reminder of Palm Beach’s coastal orientation.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336452]

For some, the start of the day may simply be coffee on the balcony; for others, a walk to the shoreline becomes the morning reset.

By mid-morning, attention shifts to everyday convenience. Abadeen is curating a ground-floor retail offering unrivalled in the local development space. It will host café options and small-format retail at street level. This complements the wider Palm Beach strip, where Canvas Café, 600 metres north, remains a local favourite for breakfast or lunch.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336445]

For households with school-aged children, Palm Beach State School is within a short walk, around 300 to 400 metres away, reinforcing the precinct’s appeal for families seeking proximity to daily essentials.

The suburb’s parks and waterways anchor the afternoon's activities. Tallebudgera Creek sits a 10-minute walk away, offering calm swimming spots and shaded pockets along the water’s edge. Small local parks and Melaleuca Dog Park provide low-key outdoor options, while Mallawa Sports Complex adds structured recreation with its fields and courts. These amenities capture the quieter side of Palm Beach, distinct from its busier beachfront corridor, but still central to why the suburb has become one of the Gold Coast’s most in-demand apartment locations.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336450]

Late afternoons bring the focus back to the building. As construction progresses, Emicon’s team is completing interiors where light-filled layouts, timber flooring, and full-height glazing form the backbone of the apartments’ internal experience.&nbsp;

Residents will have access to a resort-style pool, gym, and outdoor entertaining spaces, amenities designed for practical daily use rather than spectacle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=106840 project_image_fid=336442]

Evenings wind down inside the residences, where kitchens feature stone benchtops and European appliances. The outlook shifts from ocean light to the hinterland’s slower fade, closing the loop on the day.

Residents will move into Villea in early 2026, with construction firm Emicon putting the final touches to the new address.

Caydon Property Group

The collapsed apartment developer Caydon Property has filed plans for a massive 36-level tower in Harris Park, bordering Parramatta, just days after listing the prime development site for sale.

The 1,818 sqm site at 114-118 Harris Street is just 850m from Parramatta Train station, 750m from the Parramatta Ferry and 240m from the new Parramatta Light Rail stop.

The documents submitted to the Parramatta City Council are dated across May and June, a month before it was announced the Melbourne-based developer collapsed.&nbsp;

MHNDU, led by Brian Meyerson, won the Parramatta City Council’s Architectural Design Excellence Competition for the project, dubbed Clay Cliff Point due to its&nbsp;location adjacent to Clay Cliff Creek, an important water way for the Burramattagal people of Parramatta.

<img alt="Clay Cliff location" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d4fba4d3-3970-47e6-9173-e330b2097dda" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-05%20at%204.11.16%20pm.png?VersionId=enYC9sP4BxVeKc05cFXbkzU9aEru3Ciu" />

"With an intrinsic connection to place as a guiding principle for our design, we are taking inspiration from the nearby waterway to attune the significant multi- residential building with its surrounding natural landscape," MHNDU said on the design.

"As part of our overall concept, we are devising a re-naturalisation of the nearby Clay Cliff Creek. By investing in the regeneration of this ecosystem, we envisage that our development will enhance the ecological condition of the waterway and provide public amenity for the broader community. "

There are 203 apartments planned, a mix of 38 one-beds, 142 two-bedders, and 23 three-bed apartments. There's also a marked effort for public artworks to engage the wider community.

<img alt="The plans by MHNDU" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="c9e7a1f6-452a-47a1-8071-402fa5cd5880" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-05%20at%204.10.32%20pm.png?VersionId=_VvB9XXtgg.neB1YXLKQdvZ9oqy5GwaY" />

"The heritage of Parramatta is perhaps amongst the richest in the State, but struggles with the primacy of change and that change sometimes overwhelms the scale and nature of the 18th, 19th &amp; 20th century heritage and its fabric," Cracknell &amp; Lonergan Architects noted in the documents submitted.

"The three proposed visual artists, Brendan Van Hek, Justene Williams and Gemma Smith are all contemporary Sydney based artists with nationally recognised public artworks/ installations. Through a public art proposal these stories can be retold in a contemporary and didactic manner to inspire and educate occupants of, and visitors to the building."

The plans include a large ground floor retail space and four commercial spaces on level one, which will within a red brick podium.&nbsp;The communal facilities will be located on level four, with a pool, gym, sauna, steam room and function room proposed.

Caydon collapsed in July owing debts of a reported $200 million.

First look exclusive: Caydon lodge Parramatta apartment tower plans to flip project

The Melbourne-based apartment developer Caydon are the latest southern developer branching out in to Queensland.

They&#39;re starting on the popular Gold Coast, but aren&#39;t building in the heart of the popular tourist hub.

Their first project will be in Miami, just south of Mermaid Beach at the quieter, northern end of the Gold Coast.

Caydon, who always use their in house design team, has lodged plans for a boutique 18-level apartment tower with just 51 apartments, a maximum of four apartments per floor, on the Miami dress circle The Esplanade.

The front facade is the host of fins that represent the sunrise from the ocean, with the fins located on the opposite facade telling the story of shadows rays to fall, the design statement submitted by Caydon to the Gold Coast City Council read.

&quot;The transition of fins create unique but strong looks in each and every angles.&quot;

<img alt="" height="704" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/caydon_266_the_esplanade_miami_1.jpg" width="1200" />

The proposed building, at 266 The Esplanade, has been articulated to maximise ocean views.&nbsp;

There will be 35 two-bedroom apartments and 14 three-bedroom apartments, some of both configurations coming with a study, and a sprawling sub penthouse and penthouse.

<a href="/new-apartments/burly-residences-north-burleigh-264-268-the-esplanade-burleigh-heads">To keep up to date with the development and its launch, enquire here</a>

The penthouses will span the entire level and will each have&nbsp;three bedrooms, each with their own walk-in-robes and ensuites, three balconies, two studies, and a walk in pantry behind the open plan kitchen, living and dining area.

The resident amenity will be located on ground level, and will feature a gym, swimming pool, a spa, a yoga lawn, and a sauna.

&quot;The recreation deck was designed to make real connection with the vibrancy and vitality that beach side living offers,&quot; the design statement continued.

Currently on The Esplanade&nbsp;block is North Burleigh Place, an old low-rise apartment building.

The development will sit adjacent to parklands. Image credit: Caydon Design

The Miami - North Burleigh area is undergoing a new wave of&nbsp;urban regeneration and gentrification, according to the town planning report by Zone Planning Group.

The Esplanade itself has two new developments, 112 The Esplanade approved and under construction,&nbsp;and ALBA at 264 The Esplanade,&nbsp;currently on the council planning approval desk. Both have been designed by bureau^proberts.

Caydon Property to expand in to Queensland with first Gold Coast apartment tower

<html><body>
Melbourne-based property developer Caydon are using Black Friday, a day in the calendar usually earmarked for retailers to drop prices, to offer discounts on 100 apartments across its portfolio.
Caydon said its Black Friday sale was not a response to the weak off the plan apartment market.
Buyers will have the opportunity from 6am on Friday to book an appointment for the weekend and to then process the paperwork before the end of the year.
Caydon have unsold off the plan apartment stock in Cremorne, Flemington, Ivanhoe, Northcote, Moonee Ponds and Preston. 
They are offering discounts on one, two and three bedroom apartments in their off the plan Moonee Ponds apartment development Rise (above and below)
The one bedders start from $384,000, two bedrooms from $577,000 and three bedrooms from $936,000.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/11/22/Caydon2.jpg" alt="">
Buyers of the Rise Skyhomes will have exclusive use of The Conservatory, a private skyhigh bar and outdoor deck.
In the 29 level development there will also be a tranquil pool and spa known as Stonewater, and Club Rise, a fully appointed gym with dedicated yoga section.
Rise will also include a private skyhigh bar and 
Rise sits in Caydon's masterplanned Mason Square precinct.
Caydon's international marketing director Steve Williams said the company had seen turnover increase 25 percent above last year and revenue growth had been even higher.
He said the Black Friday sale was an innovative approach to marketing property.
“The property market has not traditionally recognised or followed seasonal spending habits in line with the consumer retail calendar, so the prospect of making significant savings in every price bracket for new apartments has been virtually non-existent until now,” Williams told The Australian.
Caydon chief executive Joe Russo said the Black Friday initiative would provide an opportunity for buyers, noting it had becoming increasingly challenging for first-home buyers, downsizers and investors. 
Caydon will cut prices in eight Melbourne projects including a $100,838 discount for a three-bedroom apartment at The Malt District development in Cremorne.
Its website shows a three-bedroom apartment in the development priced at around $1.24 million.
Caydon says 57 per cent of Australians are expected to make a retail purchase in a store or online this Friday.
Over the year to date, Melbourne apartment prices have declined 1.5 percent, according to CoreLogic.
Capital Economics suggest the declines could reach eight percent this year.
Its chief economist Paul Dales has noted "units look much more vulnerable than single dwellings, while Melbourne appears to be the most exposed of the eight capital cities."

Caydon's Black Friday discount apartment gimmick

<html><body>
Caydon's $1 billion redevelopment of Melbourne’s landmark 1960s Nylex clock site is a step closer after the developer secured Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal approval for its second stage.
It includes a revised plan for a 15-storey apartment building to be erected at the Gough Street Cremorne mini-suburb site.
A 14-storey building will also be built, with the total redevelopment to consist of three significant buildings.

Nine of the site’s original 16 silos will be retained as part of the redevelopment, including adaptation for use as a hotel, art gallery, wellness centre and a visitor centre.
The iconic Nylex clock will tell the time once again after it is restored and reinstated over the new development with what has been dubbed the Malt District.
Caydon's Joe Russo has welcomed the decision.
The VCAT decision referred to the proposal as a “seductive, sophisticated and subtle design."

It was 2014 when the set was purchased by Caydon for $38 million.
Caydon owned next door, once occupied by Beaver Plastics, taking their holding to around 1.6 hectares.
The site has been part of Melbourne’s brewing history since the late 1800s.
The 11,340 square metre site had previously attracted interest from developers when restoration projects were proposed in 2002 and 2004. 
The Nylex Clock featured in Paul Kelly’s late 1980s song 'Leaps and Bounds', with the band filmed performing on top of the tower.

This week the City of Yarra Mayor Daniel Nguyen said it was disappointing that Council’s concerns about the scale of the Nylex site development were not reflected in VCAT’s final decision.
Stage one is progressing with prices in the <a href="http://maltdistrict.caydon.com.au/coppins-corner/" target="_blank">Coppins Corner</a> building starting from $496,000 for its one bedroom apartments; two bedroom apartments from $660,000, three bedroom apartments from $1,242,000 and SOHO apartments from $1,570,500.

Nylex site finally gets chance to proceed in leaps and bounds

<html><body>
Heritage Victoria has approved further developments to the former Richmond Maltings site mixed-use development in Cremorne, Victoria.
Caydon Property Group has proposed a two-stage residential and commercial development for Caydon’s Malt District.
The new plans include the restored and working Nylex clock above the extruded concrete silos.
The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) approved stage one of the development proposal last year.
A major feature of the revised plans is the retention of a majority of the concrete silos under the Nylex clock that were previously earmarked for demolition.

Jarrod Stratton, Caydon chief operations officer said the determination is significant because having agreement with Heritage Victoria on the heritage aspects of this important urban renewal site means we can confidently move forward on a project that has already captured significant public interest.
“We’ve listened to Heritage Victoria’s concerns about the original plans, and through constructive dialogue and collaboration have a consensus that includes further heritage retention, whilst still delivering our vision for the Malt District and a viable urban renewal project," he said.
"We will continue to consult and work closely with Heritage Victoria and other government officials on the remaining aspects of our plans, and appreciate their ongoing collaboration regarding this state-significant project.
"Retaining and restoring the significant heritage fabric of this site has always been a priority for Caydon, as has been returning the famous Nylex clock to working order for Melburnians to once again enjoy.
"We are now an important step closer to the Nylex clock being re-lit as a focal point of a great new destination for people to live, work and enjoy.”
