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.

Stevens says the overwhelming response from buyers validated the group’s vision for <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/teneriffe-banks-17-27-skyring-terrace-teneriffe-qld-4005">Teneriffe Banks</a>.

“The demand for a luxury product in this enclave has been extraordinary, we’ve never seen anything like it before. It reinforces everything we’re doing around quality, design, and creating genuine lifestyle precincts. Buyers are recognising the enduring value of Brisbane’s riverfront and are responding to the opportunity to live within a world-class destination that celebrates both place and lifestyle.”

Kokoda appoints builder for $1.5 billion Teneriffe Banks waterfront precinct

Castle Hill’s booming development market is set for another boost, with builder-developer Buildex proposing a new mid-rise apartment building near Castle Towers.

Buildex has submitted plans to The Hills Shire Council for a <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/197-old-northern-road-castle-hill-nsw-2154">nine-storey building comprising 57 apartments</a> on Old Northern Road. The company acquired two adjoining sites earlier this year, totalling more than 2,683 sqm.

Texco Design has prepared the scheme, which includes five one-bed plus study apartments, 37 two-bedrooms, and 15 three-bedrooms.

Castle Hill has become a hotspot for developers in recent years, undergoing significant transformation driven by the opening of the Hills Showground Precinct to development and the introduction of two metro stations servicing the suburb.

Developers including Deicorp and Kassis Homes have already completed projects, and are progressing future developments, while Meriton, Arada, and Ellipse are currently delivering new projects in the rapidly evolving area.

Protecting our heritage in Millers Point

<html><body>
The NSW Government has acquired the heritage listed Hadley Park Estate to ensure an important part of Western Sydney history will be protected, preserved and eventually opened up to the public.  

Minister for Planning and Housing, Anthony Roberts, said the Government had acquired the property from the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation. 

“Getting this property into public ownership has taken considerable effort, and it’s important we make sure the restoration work is done, and the needs of the community accounted for, before it is opened up to the general public. 

“Department of Planning and Environment will consult with the community to develop a management plan for the long-term future management of the estate."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5910]

Roberts told the 2Gb broadcaster Ray Hadley, whose family once owned the colonial estate, that the department was investigating options with the NSW Department of Industry on a training program for young apprentices and students to participate in the restoration work. 

Hadley Park was one of the oldest farming estates in Australia (above photo credit department of environment and planning).

Source: Penrith City Library.

The land comprises a farm house, a collection of farm buildings, a garden and a part man-made lake on the Nepean River floodplain.

Local member and the Minister for Western Sydney and Member for Penrith, Stuart Ayres,noted the property was once home to Charles Hadley, a pardoned convict who settled in the Castlereagh area and began building his estate within 20 years of the first fleet arriving.  

The New South Wales Government heritage listed Hadley House at Castlereagh last June.

The homestead’s significance is one of Australia’s oldest farming estates.

But keeping it on the map for future generations has been a struggle.

The Castlereagh property has a special meaning for <a href="https://www.2gb.com/government-officially-signs-off-on-hadley-house-heritage-listing/" target="_blank">2GB broadcaster Ray Hadley</a>, belonging to his fourth great-grandfather Charles Hadley in the 18th century.

In February last year, the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation assured Ray that Hadley Park would be protected only to go back on its word.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8590]

Ray has previously thanked the Minister and the government for preserving the historic location.

“I think it’s very important, from my point of view, that we leave some sort of legacy into the future, where our children… can go and look at places and have a look and feel what it was like back then.”

NSW Heritage says it is difficult to overestimate the significance of this complex, "still extant in its original 1803 grant, and still in a remarkably unaltered condition".

Ray Hadley suggest the two storey building might be Australia's oldest two storey building, from 1806, and <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/https://www.flickr.com/photos/nikabuz/37058129814" target="_blank">maybe the oldest timber cottage known to survive in Australia</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=5897]

The area is now owned by the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation (PLDC) and is off-limits to the public.

The main farmhouse is an extremely rare surviving example of a jerkin head roof structure embodying a most unique and unusual timber structure and clad externally with brickwork.

The technical excellence of the timber roof structure is paralleled by Elizabeth Farm, Parramatta, Old Government House, Parramatta and St. Mathgew's Anglican Church, Windsor and because of this technical excellence the building cannot be described as vernacular.

NSW Government secures Hadley House at Castlereagh for public admiration

<html><body>
The New South Wales Government has heritage listed for Hadley House at Castlereagh.
The homestead’s significance is one of Australia’s oldest farming estates.
But keeping it on the map for future generations has been a struggle.
The Castlereagh property has a special meaning for <a href="https://www.2gb.com/government-officially-signs-off-on-hadley-house-heritage-listing/" target="_blank">2GB broadcaster Ray Hadley</a>, belonging to his fourth great-grandfather Charles Hadley in the 18th century.
In February this year, the Penrith Lakes Development Corporation assured Ray that Hadley Park would be protected only to go back on its word.
State Planning Minister Anthony Roberts says Governor David Hurley has signed off on a heritage listing for the property.
The government is now moving to restore it.
“From there we’ll start to, of course, protect the site further, rebuild it, and turn it into a destination for people to go and see how people in the past used to live and work,” he tells Ray.
Ray has thanked the Minister and the government for preserving the historic location.
“I think it’s very important, from my point of view, that we leave some sort of legacy into the future, where our children… can go and look at places and have a look and feel what it was like back then.”
NSW Heritage says it is difficult to overestimate the significance of this complex, "still extant in its original 1803 grant, and still in a remarkably unaltered condition".
As a building it is one of the earliest extant buildings in the colony; in its condition and setting it is probably unique, the reference suggests.
The farming complex, together with Nepean Park adjacent, make an outstanding pair within the Castlereagh/Nepean River farming plateau.
The site comes with a single storey outbuilding, possibly the earliest timber cottage on the site circa 1806, <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/https://www.flickr.com/photos/nikabuz/37058129814" target="_blank">maybe the oldest timber cottage known to survive in Australia</a>.

Hadley House, Castlereagh gets heritage listed

<html><body>
Property NSW has announced the lease sale of a heritage-listed commercial property in The Rocks with the funds to be utilised to improve the Sydney Harbour foreshore.
The <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/property-offices-nsw-sydney-502585746" target="_blank">16-18 Grosvenor St</a> property, formerly known as the Housing Board Building, is listed on the State Heritage Register. It was built in 1921 to house the Resumed Properties Department which was responsible for the resumption of land for the Department of Lands and played a major part in reshaping The Rocks and Millers Point.
It would be sold through a tender closing on November 8 and is being offered via a 99-year lease.
“The Rocks and Darling Harbour are two of the State’s most popular tourism precincts and we must continue to invest in them to ensure the visitor experience exceeds expectations,” said Brett Newman, CEO of Property NSW.
In 2015, the NSW government said that proceeds from the divestment of some select government-owned assets in The Rocks would be allocated to the Restart NSW fund, with at least $200 million reserved for the Circular Quay ferry wharf upgrade. 
“New developments along the Harbour foreshore must be complemented by ongoing investment to maintain and conserve our existing assets,” Newman said.
“The sale via long-term lease will deliver immediate funding to invest in our precincts while ensuring the property remains in government hands and is subject to heritage protections.”
The property has a Conservation Management Plan endorsed by the Heritage Council of NSW to guide any purchaser’s plans for the property.  
The listing agents are Mitch Noonan and Harry George from CBRE.

Property NSW offers long-term lease sale of heritage office building on The Rocks

A five-storey, fully leased and restored heritage building in Sydney CBD’s prized Kent Street is on the market through Savills.
The <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property/332-kent-st-sydney-nsw-2000" target="_blank">332 Kent Street</a> building would appeal to investors looking to take advantage of the growth in the B-grade office market and secure a foothold in the Sydney CBD, according to listing agents are Graeme Russell and Tim Grosmann of Savills Australia.
The Western Corridor in Sydney’s CBD is known for its architectural beauty with its high concentration of heritage-listed buildings.
The  property sits on a 485 sqm site with 1,569.60 sqm of net lettable area. Tenants include Nando’s Australia, LN Pulsation, SkillsIQ, Open Learning Global, Concierge Travel Group and Australian Packaging Covenant. 
The net income is more than $1,000,000 per annum and there is a Weighted Average Lease Expiry (WALE) of 1.42 years.
Tim Grosmann said the building underwent an upgrade and the construction of an additional level set back from the ornate facade in 2002. 
“This is an exciting opportunity for not only an investor looking for prime retail and office accommodation, but an owner-occupier looking for a distinctive property in a vibrant locale to base their office,” he said.
The building has frontage to Kent Street and there is further scope to add a roof top terrace to the building that takes advantage of the vast city skyline views. Anchor points have already been incorporated to the roof that will support the weight of a huge rooftop terrace, he added.
Internally, the property has been modernised with the original arched niches in face brick internal walls and roof trusses remaining exposed to ensure the heritage character of the building. 
A sliding rental expiry profile across the commercial tenancies will allow an astute purchaser to capitalise on the tightening Sydney office leasing market, added Graeme Russell.
“Demand for office space has never been greater and B Grade accommodation in the Western Corridor is the most sought after product in a rising office market. Currently B grade office vacancy is tighter than A grade at 3.7 per cent verses 4 per cent respectively” he said.
The Sydney CBD is Australia’s largest office market, with 5.08 million sqm of total stock and is favoured by many investors and tenants alike, as highlighted by some of the strongest prime property rents and yields across the nation, according to Savills.
The building is being sold through expressions of interest closing September 6.

A rundown Redfern shack, has sold for $2.7 million before its scheduled auction, but at substantially less than initial hopes.
It hit the market with $3 million price hopes early last month but these were later revised to $2.5 million.
The sale follows a quick burst of activity in the run down housing market.
Recently a dilapidated Paddington terrace sold for $1.19 million, $190,000 more than it traded for in eight months.
A Rozelle home with no rear wall has been listed for $1.4 million.
The Georgian house, known as Dascombe Cottage at <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-redfern-123747590" target="_blank">46-48 Burnett Street</a> sits on a rare 507 sqm land parcel, almost five times larger than other lots in the suburb.
Most of Redfern's slim terraces are squashed into blocks of about 100 sqm.
Extra stories cannot be added to the home and the front facade can only be altered if the new owner is restoring the original features.
<img src="/images/2016/10/13/Redfern1.jpg" alt="" width="467" height="274">
The mid-Victorian-era home dates back to at least the mid-1850s and is part of the original estate of William Redfern, the suburb's namesake.
The Burnett Street property sold through BresicWhitney. 
<img src="/images/2016/10/13/Redfern3.jpg" alt="" width="472" height="267">
Most of the inquiries came from developers looking to subdivide and locals looking to build, with the potential to put a new home alongside the existing building.
