Growing national developer Time &amp; Place has announced its fifth new apartment development.

With two projects in Manly and two upcoming in Surry Hills and Potts Point, the developer, which expanded beyond Melbourne just a few years ago, is now heading to Mosman. It is planning 53 new apartments on Redan Street.

The 3,233 sqm site, spanning <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/40-48-redan-street-mosman-nsw-2088">40–48 Redan Street</a> with frontage to Redan Lane, is located just under 400 metres from Spit Junction Town Centre. It is reported the developer paid around $100 million for the five-site amalgamation.

Time &amp; Place, founded by Tim Price and backed by James Packer’s private investment firm NPACT, has submitted the project as a State Significant Development through the NSW Government’s Housing Delivery Authority pathway.

Of the 53 apartments, 42 will be released to the market, with the remaining 11 allocated as affordable housing in line with NSW Government requirements.

fjc Studio has designed the building. In its Design Report, the architect said the diverse mix of dwelling types and sizes, including 11 two-bedroom affordable housing units, 40 three-bedroom apartments, and two four-bedroom residences, will support a broad demographic, including families, downsizers, and key workers.

The development will rise to nine levels, a height encouraged by the NSW Government due to the site’s proximity to Spit Junction, which has been identified as a low- to mid-rise centre. Developments within a certain proximity to these centres are permitted increased height.

fjc said the project “achieves an appropriate density outcome for its setting by balancing increased housing supply with strong amenity performance,” adding that it “makes a measurable contribution to NSW housing supply targets through the delivery of additional dwellings and dedicated affordable housing.”

The new development will replace five existing two-storey homes.

“By aligning with the objectives of the Housing SEPP and applying careful architectural and urban design principles, the development provides high-quality residential accommodation that integrates sensitively within its established Mosman context and delivers enduring benefits to residents and the wider community.”

Mosman has become increasingly popular with developers in recent years.

Developer Abadeen has been particularly active, with Mosman Residences currently on the market and under construction on Clifford Street. It also has an upcoming Burran Avenue project, comprising just three apartments on the Balmoral Slopes, and recently secured the Midas and Honeysuckle nursery site on Military Road.

Prosker Property has a project on Redan Lane, just a few doors down from Time &amp; Place’s proposed development.

Developers including Toohey Miller, DARE Property Group, and WINIM also have projects underway in the area. In 2024, a five-year target was set for the Mosman LGA to increase housing supply by 500 dwellings by 2029.

Time &amp; Place entered the Sydney market with Two Tides, its under construction Manly development. Given its sales success, it has secured another development in the area, more boutique, facing the beach on North Steyne.

They are hoping to launch their redevelopment of The Chimes in Potts Point this year, and next year will look to take to market Marlborough House, an adaptive re-use of the landmark David Jones warehouse in Surry Hills.

Time & Place to take on Mosman apartment market

Brunswick’s civic heart continues to consolidate around the Merri-bek Arts and Culture Precinct, where a growing cluster of cultural institutions, recreation facilities, and public infrastructure has created one of the inner north’s most defined community hubs.&nbsp;

Within this evolving precinct, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/saxon-street-by-milieu-brunswick-31-saxon-street-brunswick-vic-3056">Saxon Street by Milieu</a> introduces new housing directly alongside the civic anchors that shape daily life in the suburb.

At 31 Saxon Street, the project sits immediately beside Brunswick Baths and within moments of Brunswick Library and Town Hall, longstanding institutions that support both community services and everyday amenity.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136434 project_image_fid=348840]

Next door, the newly delivered Balam Balam Place arts precinct has emerged as a central piece of Merri-bek Council’s cultural strategy, bringing together creative studios, exhibition spaces, maternal and child health services, and community programming in a purpose-built civic facility. Together, these destinations have reinforced the surrounding blocks as a focal point for public life in Brunswick.

This part of <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/brunswick-vic-3056">Brunswick</a> forms a key pocket within the suburb’s designated Major Activity Centre, where long-term planning has prioritised walkability, civic investment, and increased housing supply close to transport and services. The surrounding street network reflects that strategy, with compact blocks, established retail corridors and active transport links supporting a lifestyle that is largely navigable on foot.

Within a few minutes’ walk, Sydney Road delivers one of Melbourne’s most recognisable streets, known for its long-running mix of independent retailers, international dining venues and everyday convenience. Tram routes along Sydney Road provide frequent connections south toward the CBD and north through Brunswick and Coburg, while Jewell Station on the Upfield line sits within roughly a ten-minute walk, offering direct train access into the city.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136434 project_image_fid=348839]

Active transport also plays a significant role locally. The nearby Upfield Bike Path forms a key north–south cycling corridor linking Brunswick through Parkville and into the central city, reinforcing the area’s reputation as one of Melbourne’s most accessible inner-urban neighbourhoods for cyclists and pedestrians alike.

The surrounding civic cluster extends beyond cultural infrastructure. Siteworks, a nearby creative hub supporting artists and community organisations, adds to the concentration of cultural activity in the immediate area. Educational institutions such as Brunswick North Primary School, Brunswick Secondary College and RMIT’s Brunswick campus are also within easy reach, contributing to the suburb’s diverse resident base spanning families, students and professionals.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136434 project_image_fid=348841]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/jackson-clements-burrows-architects">Jackson Clements Burrows Architects</a> in collaboration with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/interior-designers/designoffice">DesignOffice</a> and landscape architects <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/oculus">OCULUS</a>, the nine-level building has been shaped to respond to the surrounding streetscape, with lower levels aligning to the street and upper storeys stepping back to soften its scale and improve solar access.&nbsp;

Curved balcony forms reference nearby heritage architecture, while the development’s public realm improvements include a widened footpath along Saxon Street to strengthen pedestrian connections between the precinct’s civic sites.

Sustainability also underpins the project’s approach. The building is designed to operate entirely on electric infrastructure supported by rooftop solar, with an average 7.5-star NatHERS energy rating and EV-charging readiness across the development. Shared resident amenities will include a landscaped rooftop terrace with barbecue and covered dining areas intended to encourage informal interaction between residents.

Saxon Street marks developer Milieu's fifth project in Brunswick and continues its focus on design-led infill housing across Melbourne’s inner suburbs.&nbsp;

Construction has commenced through reputable builder Manresa, who will complete the project in 2027.

Saxon Street by Milieu connects residents to Brunswick’s cultural and civic core

Within <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/candela-ivanhoe-40-upper-heidelberg-road-ivanhoe-vic-3079">Candela Ivanhoe</a>, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/salter-brothers">Salter Brothers</a>&nbsp;takes a different approach to larger residences, moving away from the constraints of a single level.

In Grand Residence 3.05, known as the Lustre, plays out across two levels, with a mezzanine configuration that is uncommon in apartment living.

Lustre is a four-bathroom residence where the layout creates a clear distinction between shared and private zones, with uninterrupted views toward the Dandenong Ranges extending the sense of openness from the main living areas.

Entry is to the primary living level, where the kitchen, dining, and living areas are arranged as one continuous space. Timber flooring runs throughout, with a fireplace set within the living zone. Full-height glazing brings in natural light, supported by double glazing that improves thermal performance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=357506]

The kitchen is configured as both a working and social space. A large island bench provides seating, while a walk-in pantry extends storage beyond typical apartment expectations.

Gaggenau appliances, including a 900mm gas cooktop and 600mm oven, are integrated into a layout that connects directly to the adjacent dining and living areas, and outward to the terrace. This balcony includes a built-in BBQ, reinforcing the apartment’s capacity to accommodate larger gatherings without compromising internal space.

A dedicated laundry room, powder room, and a wine cellar area sit discreetly off the main living zone, ensuring that functional requirements are resolved without encroaching on primary living areas. The master suite is also located on this level, designed as a retreat with a walk-through wardrobe and an ensuite that includes double vanities, a bath, and a dedicated dressing table.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=357508]

The mezzanine level introduces a second layer of living, rather than simply additional bedrooms. Two large bedrooms with built-in robes are positioned alongside a central bathroom, while a secondary lounge and study area create a self-contained zone suited to children, guests, or extended family. A large storage room further supports long-term usability, addressing a common shortfall in apartment design.

This separation of levels is central to how the residence functions day-to-day. It allows the lower level to operate as the primary entertaining and living space, while the upper level provides privacy and flexibility. The result is closer in feel to a townhouse or standalone home, but with the benefits of apartment living, security, and low maintenance.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=342 project_image_fid=364553]

Candela is close to 80 per cent complete, with Ironside delivering construction ahead of its expected October 2026 completion. The development comprises 58 residences, with a strong owner-occupier profile and a mix of one to four-bedroom apartments and loft-style townhouses.

Candela has exclusive access to private amenities, including a residential lounge and rooftop terrace. A charming café and a lifestyle wellness centre are located on the ground level, designed to foster community connection and extend the living experience beyond individual apartments without competing with the scale of homes like Lustre.

Candela, positioned in the heart of Ivanhoe Village, reinforces the practicality of the address. With a Walk Score of 90, residents are within immediate reach of cafés, retail, parklands, and Ivanhoe Station, while also benefiting from proximity to established schools and healthcare services.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/milieu-property">Milieu</a>’s <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/elsternwick-gardens-by-milieu-8-gordon-street-elsternwick-vic-3185">Elsternwick Gardens</a> is being shaped around a simple but increasingly rare premise in apartment development: that the built environment should actively support residents’ wellbeing.&nbsp;

Located on the former ABC Studios site on Gordon Street in Melbourne’s south-east, the new neighbourhood sits on an expansive 11,740 sqm site neighbouring the heritage-listed Rippon Lea Estate, whose gardens date back more than 140 years.

Rather than positioning wellness as an add-on amenity, the development integrates it into the physical planning of the site. Architecture by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a> is arranged across six low-rise buildings set within extensive landscaping designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/landscape-architect/oculus">OCULUS</a>, with more than 40 per cent of the land dedicated to gardens and green space. Walking trails, pocket gardens, and mature trees are threaded between buildings, creating a network of green corridors that encourage residents to move through the precinct on foot and spend more time outdoors.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136535 project_image_fid=288420]

Milieu has intentionally framed these gardens as an extension of the neighbouring Rippon Lea Estate. More than 16,000 new plants will be introduced across the site, with species carefully selected to protect and complement the area’s ecological significance. The approach focuses on strengthening existing environmental conditions while establishing new habitats that support native wildlife, reinforcing the role of the landscape as both an active ecosystem and a defining element of daily life.

A private resident gate will provide direct access to the historic grounds during opening hours, allowing residents to move seamlessly between the development’s landscaped gardens and the estate’s expansive lawns, lakes, and mature trees. The project’s gardens will also be maintained by the same gardeners responsible for Rippon Lea, reinforcing the visual and ecological continuity between the two landscapes.

Complementing the landscape is a dedicated wellness hub designed to support everyday health and recovery. Residents will have access to a gym alongside yoga and Pilates studios, while mineral pools and infrared saunas provide spaces for relaxation and restorative wellbeing. Shared lounges, workshop spaces, and pet care facilities expand the concept of wellness beyond fitness, creating opportunities for social connection and community interaction within the precinct.

Environmental performance is another key component of the project’s wellbeing focus. Elsternwick Gardens will be entirely fossil-fuel-free, with homes designed to operate on renewable electricity rather than gas. Passive design strategies, including cross-flow ventilation, high-performance insulation, and thermally broken double glazing, are intended to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures while reducing energy demand. Solar photovoltaic systems will power common building services, while rainwater harvesting will help irrigate the extensive landscaping across the site.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136535 project_image_fid=361030]

Milieu Founder and Managing Director Michael McCormack says the scale and setting of the project allowed the team to take a different approach to urban apartment living.

“This site represents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build something truly special,” McCormack says.

“Through that process, we arrived at a design that centres on a fully realised natural landscape – a series of private, interconnected gardens that encircle the homes and extend seamlessly from Rippon Lea Estate.”

Elsternwick Gardens will comprise three residential offerings, Gordon Place, Ripponlea Terrace, and The Garden Pavilion, each designed for owner-occupiers and shaped around high-quality interior design by Woods Bagot, K.P.D.O., and Flack Studio. The first stage, Gordon Place, includes one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments designed with a strong focus on indoor-outdoor living and sustainability.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=136535 project_image_fid=288412]

Milieu recently appointed <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/brady-constructions">Brady Constructions</a> to deliver the project, marking a key milestone for the development. The appointment follows the demolition of the former studio buildings on the Gordon Street site, with construction progressing toward the delivery of the nature-led community.

Situated between the established villages of Elsternwick and Ripponlea, the development balances its garden setting with strong urban connectivity. Residents will be within walking distance of cafés, restaurants, and local retail, while nearby train and tram connections provide quick access to Melbourne’s CBD and the beaches of Elwood and St Kilda.

With construction underway and the first residents expected to move in by early 2027, Elsternwick Gardens represents a growing shift in apartment development toward environments that prioritise wellbeing as much as density or location. By placing landscape, sustainability, and shared spaces at the centre of the design, Milieu is positioning the project as a residential neighbourhood where wellness is not just promoted, but built into the structure of everyday life.

Elsternwick Gardens' wellness-first design strategy

Brisbane-based developer <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/red-co">Red &amp; Co</a> has made a striking debut on the Gold Coast, officially unveiling its $250 million COMO development in Varsity Lakes, a lifestyle-driven residential project anchored by an extensive rooftop wellness and activity precinct.

Having recently launched to market, construction has already been fast-tracked by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/builders/5point-projects">5Point Projects</a>, ensuring momentum continues on what is set to become a landmark residential address for the growing Varsity Lakes community.

Located at 22 Lake Street, Varsity Lakes, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/como-varsity-lakes-22-lake-street-varsity-lakes-qld-4227">COMO</a> will comprise 156 apartments across 16 levels, comprising one-, two- and three-bedroom residences designed for modern living. However, it is the project’s rooftop amenity offering that sets COMO apart.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135546 project_image_fid=363510]

Designed as a dedicated wellness and recreation hub, the rooftop will feature a 25-metre lap pool, fully equipped gymnasium, and multiple pickleball and paddleball courts - amenities rarely seen in boutique apartment projects.

Residents will also have access to a sauna and plunge baths, while landscaped gardens and relaxation zones will provide tranquil spaces overlooking sweeping panoramic views across the Gold Coast skyline.

The rooftop precinct has been designed to function as the social and wellness heart of the development, encouraging residents to embrace an active, balanced lifestyle within their own building.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135546 project_image_fid=363512]

Red &amp; Co director David Laverty said the amenity offering was central to the project’s design from the outset.

“Amenities were at the forefront of our decisions,” Laverty said.

“Buyers today are looking for more than just an apartment - they want a lifestyle that promotes health, connection and balance.

“The rooftop at COMO has been designed to be the epicentre of that lifestyle, with a suite of wellness and recreation facilities that are quite unique for a boutique development of this scale.”

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135546 project_image_fid=363514]

Designed by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/bda-architecture">BDA Architecture</a>, the residences prioritise liveability, featuring spacious layouts, 2.7-metre ceilings and high-quality finishes throughout.

The development sits beside Bond University, placing residents within walking distance of education, retail and dining options within the vibrant Varsity Lakes precinct, including Robina Town Centre, Varsity Lakes Train Station and a range of leading schools.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=135546 project_image_fid=363511]

Laverty said the location was a key driver behind Red &amp; Co’s decision to bring the project to the Gold Coast.

“<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/varsity-lakes-qld-4227">Varsity Lakes</a> was a clear choice for us to invest in as it’s a lifestyle hub that seamlessly blends lakeside living with urbanity,” he said.&nbsp;

“Como will capitalize on this great location, delivering a project that not only creates premium homes, but a lifestyle defined by community, wellbeing, and connectivity.”

Red &amp; Co has delivered more than 500 apartments and townhouses across 26 projects in Brisbane in recent years, with COMO marking the company’s first major Gold Coast development.

Newcastle off the plan apartments

Urban Property Group is continuing to expand its ever-widening new apartment pipeline.

The developer is soon to tackle the Newcastle's market, having taking over the mixed-use Bowline project on the harbour in Wickham.&nbsp;

<img alt="Bowline" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="76e65b76-fbcf-4f05-a1e9-b6834c908691" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-03-31%20at%2010.52.58%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=PTzhKaLh79XhxtUzcM5KSbt2k5Hsi2r5" />

The Bowline, just under 100 apartments across a 14-level building on Dangar Street, was being developed by MultiPart Property before they fell into receivership. Deposits were offered back to the original buyers earlier this year.

The large-scale apartments, that were pitched as being suitable for downsizers when it gained approval in 2019, would sit above 5,500 sqm of commercial space.

Urban Property Group secured the site&nbsp;through a competitive sale process managed by the appointed receivers and managers, Ryan Eagle and Amanda Coneyworth of KPMG.

<img alt="Bowline" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a7588c81-24fa-43df-9915-558371a8496f" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-03-31%20at%2010.53.04%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=TROUxZjaWUlJrzbzKROIVCOjWGXX24Rx" />

Patrick Elias, CEO of&nbsp;<a href="/developers/urban-property-group">Urban Property Group</a>, said Bowline is a&nbsp;pivotal site in one of the most exciting growth corridors in the state.

"We recognise both the opportunity and the responsibility of taking this project forward."

Elias says the current approval dates back several years and there is a "unique opportunity to reimagine this site in a way that meets today’s needs while embracing the city’s future potential."

The site is located at 10 Dangar Street, Wickham, NSW 2293, on the corner of Hannell Street, Dangar Street, and Charles Street. This prime location places it adjacent to the Newcastle Interchange, a major transport hub.

UPG has recent experience taking over and successfully progressing complex projects. Urban acquired Gosford’s Central Coast Quarter from St Hilliers in 2024, and is now progressing toward top-out of the first stage.

UPG has several projects across Greater Sydney. They're working toward launching <a href="/new-apartments/mayfair-on-penrith-172-lord-sheffield-circuit-penrith">Mayfair on Penrith</a>, 287 apartments across a 10-level building on&nbsp;an 8280 sqm site at 160-172 Lord Sheffield Circuit. It will be&nbsp;Urban Property Group's&nbsp;sixth and final development in the Thornton precinct, alongside their award-winning developments Navali and&nbsp;<a href="/buildings/the-orchards-lumia-norwest-104-fairway-drive-norwest-nsw-2153" target="">Lumia</a>.

&nbsp;

Patrick Elias, CEO of Urban Property Group, said the The Bowline is a pivotal site in one of the most exciting growth corridors in the state.

Respected local builder-developer, <a href="/developers/gwh">GWH</a>, is offering grand-scale living in every aspect at its under-construction <a href="/developments/newcastle-west-nsw-2302">Newcastle West</a> apartment development, <a href="/new-apartments/one-apartments-newcastle-west-1-national-park-street-newcastle-west">One Apartments</a>.

Upon completion later this year, ONE Apartments will not only become the tallest tower in Newcastle at nearly 80-metres high, but will offer some of the largest floorplans ever seen in the rapidly growing city.

The 193 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, spread across two 22 and 19-level towers, are, on average, around 20 percent larger than what is typically available in both the new development and established apartment sectors in the Newcastle region.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=325764]

GWH Build is well advanced in the construction of the development, over half-way up each building which protrude from a shared four-level podium that will host a range of commercial and retail tenancies.

<a href="/architects/marchese-partners">Marchese Partners</a>&nbsp;have collaborated with <a href="/architects/ckds-architecture">CKDS</a>&nbsp;on the design of <a href="/new-apartments/one-apartments-newcastle-west-1-national-park-street-newcastle-west">ONE Apartments</a>, creating a floorplate as part of the striking, pointed design that both creates large floorplans as well as a balconies off the living areas and bedrooms that offer extended views over Newcastle.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=325772]

Due to the height of the tower, and its strategic position on National Park Street, ensures the majority of the apartments, even at the lower levels, will offer strong viewlines.

Each apartment will feature interiors with SMEG appliances, soft-touch cabinetry, and premium tapware.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=325763]

The highest views are captured from the rooftop entertainment areas. The Scenic Lounge, atop the 22-level south tower,&nbsp;and the Harbourview Lounge, crowning the north towers 19th level, will each offer panoramic outlooks across the city and coastline.

As well as the rooftops, residents will have private access to a heated outdoor swimming pool, state-of-the-art gym with steam room, a fully furnished, surround-sound UHD cinema, and several pocket parks, from small courtyards for yoga and meditation to pergolas set in extensive landscaping.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=325771]

Newcastle has seen relatively little high-density development compared to the likes of its closest major regions, like Sydney and the Central Coast. GWH is central to the increasing what is a fairly limited supply of new apartments in Newcastle. The limited availability of suitable sites and a small pool of builders capable of delivering large-scale projects have constrained the market.&nbsp;

GWH, which has been shaping Newcastle’s built environment since 1995, is one of the few developers with the expertise and resources to undertake a project of this magnitude.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=325761]

The location of ONE Apartments will place residents within walking distance of Darby Street’s dining precinct, the Civic Theatre, Marketown Shopping Centre, and the Newcastle Interchange, ensuring seamless connectivity for residents.

Buyers are expecting to move into ONE Apartments in early 2026.

[smartcode_project_cta:default project_id=24247]

The 193 apartments, spread across two 22 and 19-level towers, are, on average, around 20 percent larger than what is typically available in both the new development and established apartment sectors in the Newcastle region.



The grand proportions of Newcastle's newest apartment development

Longstanding and respected Newcastle builder developer, GWH, is giving buyers more bang for their buck compared to any other apartment project in Newcastle.

The <a href="/developers/gwh">iCIRT-rated developer</a> is offering floorplans some 20 per cent larger than others on the local market at their under-construction tower ONE Apartments, located in the heart of the <a href="/developments/newcastle-west-nsw-2302">Newcastle West</a> on National Park Street, on the doorstep of Marketown and the Newcastle Interchange.

The 22 and 19-level buildings designed by&nbsp;<a href="/architects/marchese-partners">Marchese Partners</a>, connected by a four-level podium that will home commercial space, will comprise 193 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=281094]

Over 50 per cent of the apartments have already been snapped up, with construction well on track for a late 2025 completion. Nearly all of the one-bedroom apartments are accounted for.

The&nbsp;apartments feature open-plan living areas extending to private winter gardens offering views of Newcastle Harbour, Stockton, Merewether, and the Watagan Mountains.

GWH Managing Director, Jonothan Craig, says ONE Apartments offer spacious open plan living at its finest.

"Luxurious quality, wellness, security, convenience – ONE showcases GWH’s significant research into the elements our residents most desire for a beautiful, enduring quality of life," Craig says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=281096]

The kitchens are equipped with SMEG appliances and soft-touch cabinetry, centred around a breakfast bar designed for ease of entertaining, while the master&nbsp;bedrooms come with built-in or walk-in robes, bathrooms with natural stone tiling, and premium tapware, ensuring ample storage and natural light.

Homeowners can choose between natural, earthy tones in light and dark colour palettes.&nbsp;

Each apartment is also fully wired with fibre-to-premises NBN, Pay TV, wireless access points, and the option to upgrade to the Clipsal Wiser™ Smart Home system, allowing residents to control home features via a single app.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=281099]

Residents at ONE Apartments will have access to exclusive amenities, including an outdoor pool, cinema, gym, sauna, a bookable private function room, and two rooftop entertainment areas.&nbsp;

The Scenic Lounge is located on the 22nd floor of the South Tower, and the Harbourview Lounge is atop the 19th floor of the North Tower.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=24247 project_image_fid=281103]

ONE Apartments is ideally located within walking distance of Darby Street eateries, parks, the Civic Theatre, Newcastle Interchange, the Honeysuckle foreshore precinct, and various retail stores.

GWH was founded as GWH Build in 1995 by&nbsp;Grahame Chevalley and Hilton Grugeon AM.&nbsp;Since 2017 GWH has delivered over 600 new homes to the Newcastle region.

ONE Apartments to offer Newcastle's largest new apartments

Construction is underway on Newcastle's latest residential development, ONE Apartments.&nbsp;

Their inhouse construction team, GWH Build, is handling construction of the two-tower development of just under 200 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

The demolition of the existing site concluded late last year, paving the way for structural piling and inground work, which commenced early this year.

ONE Apartments, designed by global architects Marchese Partners and local firm CKDS, will feature one of GWH's signature inclusions, two all-weather rooftop entertaining areas overlooking 360-degree views of Newcastle.&nbsp;

Among the additional amenities are an outdoor heated pool, cinema, gymnasium, steam room, and several smaller private communal spaces available for bookings.

GWH officially launched ONE Apartments to the market in mid-June 2022.

The project attracted a strong interest from the outset, particularly among purchasers from other GWH developments. This has resulted in over one-third of Stage One being sold within the first eight weeks on the market.

"Currently, we're over 50 per cent sold in Stage One and all of our one-bedroom apartments are sold out which shows so much confidence in the market at the moment in Newcastle City, especially off-the-plan," said GWH/RE Licensee in Charge - Peter Kunov.

"Our enquiry rate every week seems to grow despite the current market and the confidence in the off-the-plan sales for both downsizers and investors and first home buyers is really strong."

ONE is located in the centre of Newcastle, just steps away from the Interchange, Marketown Shopping Centre and Newcastle’s famous walking tracks and trails.

The development is slated for completion in October 2025.

Newcastle's One Apartments over 50% sold as construction continues

Newcastle and Lake Macquarie apartment developer Next Level Seven has officially launched Watervue, a bold new statement to the growing Newcastle skyline.

Watervue, at 10 Steel Street, comprises 106 apartments spread across a 19-level tower that offers panoramic views of the city and the harbour.&nbsp;

Designed by Stewart Architecture, prospective homeowners can select from a range of apartment options, including one-bedroom, one-bedroom plus study, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom configurations, as well as two luxury penthouses. Serviced by three lifts, each floor accommodates a maximum of seven apartments.&nbsp;

<img alt="Watervue" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d3e20beb-d6c0-46d3-be01-b650e37780f1" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-29%20at%207.29.09%20pm.png?VersionId=4S2qizWWBxynzfc.Kyq.m0Ds9y6EjHGY" />

The generous floor plans, featuring 2.7-metre high ceilings, are strategically designed to optimise views and infuse the interiors with natural light. Expansive balconies extend an invitation to outdoor living.

Watervue, strategically positioned at a corner, captures east-northeast aspects and accompanying breezes. The east-northeast orientation ensures apartments bask in the morning sun while benefiting from coastal breezes during summer.

The double glazing and ducted air conditioning without condensers on verandahs further emphasise Watervue's priority for resident comfort.

The well-appointed designer kitchens boast stone benchtops and stainless steel Miele appliances. Luxurious bathrooms showcase floor-to-ceiling tiles and premium fixtures.

Exclusive upgrade packages are available for all apartments, including appliance upgrades, heated bathroom floors and towel rails, ceiling fans, and power outlets in car spaces. Secure parking is provided for all apartments, with each car space having a storage cage.

On the podium, residents can socialise in the fourth-floor residents’ lounge or take advantage of the well-equipped business hub. Residents can pick herbs from the lush edible garden on the podium rooftop, get together on the pool deck or take a dip in the 25-metre heated lap pool.

Situated just one block from Newcastle’s harbour, apartments from level 12 and above offer uninterrupted views of the busy working waterway. Lower levels provide view corridors to the harbour along with aspects overlooking Watervue’s private swimming pool, with its beach area and landscaped surrounds.

Watervue is just a short stroll from major supermarkets, light rail, the Newcastle Transport Interchange, cafés, restaurants, bars, and the Newcastle Cruising Yacht Club, with easy access to Market Town shopping centre, the inner city and Cooks Hill.

Next Level Seven appointed builder Bloc Constructions to build Watervue, with an estimated completion date in September 2024. Street Property is marketing the project.

Rare new off the plan apartment development launches in Newcastle

A new mixed-use development is set to transform the landscape of Lindus Street in the inner suburbs of Newcastle, with the demolition of two warehouses and a concrete car park set to make way for the construction of 59 new dwellings in <a href="/developments/wickham-nsw-2293">Wickham</a>.

The plans for <a href="/new-apartments/1-21-railway-street-wickham">1-21 Railway Street, Wickham</a>, were lodged by Gemini Interchange Pty Ltd, which is directed by Maitland-born Kristoffer and Dallas Harvey. Kristoffer is currently the CEO for Goodman Group's activities in Greater China.&nbsp;

The development will comprise 21 one-bedroom, 32 two-bedroom and six three-bedroom apartments, along with five four-bedroom three-storey terrace houses, providing a range of living options to cater to the diverse needs of the community.

It’s hoped the project will help address Newcastle’s rental crisis — with the city’s vacancy rate sitting at just 1.4 per cent.&nbsp;

The 11-storey development has been designed by&nbsp;CKDS Architecture, with it also set to feature communal open space and an urban activation space facing Lindus Street, as well as ground floor retail space on Railway Street.&nbsp;

The landscape design developed by Xeriscapes will integrate with and enhance the architectural forms and will aid in helping council to deliver a north facing urban activation space&nbsp;to the corners of Railway and Lindus streets, consistent with the vision for a public network outlined in City of Newcastle’s Wickham Masterplan 2017 and 
subsequent 2021 update.

The facade will feature concrete panel walls, metal screens and metal flat bar balustrades, paired with face brickwork, lightweight cladding and powder-coated horizontal plant louvres.&nbsp;

The built form has been constructed to maximise natural sunlight and cross flow ventilation throughout each of the residences while also providing view lines to the harbour.&nbsp;

The northern façade presents as an open form, taking advantage of sunlight and views, broken down into a hierarchy of slabs edges, dividing walls, and balconies.

80 car spaces will be available across the site, with 31 planned for the ground level and 49 across level one, in addition to four motorcycle spaces and 64 bicycle spaces, which has been pitched to encourage more sustainable transport options.&nbsp;

The near $30 million project is&nbsp;conveniently located near the <a href="/new-apartments/newcastle-nsw">Newcastle</a> Interchange and is well located for transport, shopping, public places and civic open spaces within the Newcastle City Centre.

The project is expected to take several years to complete, with construction set to begin in the near future. The development is expected to be a significant addition to the city, providing new homes, retail space, and green areas, while also enhancing the overall aesthetic of the area.
