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.

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.

While Australia’s property market remains a safe haven, limited stock is a significant obstacle for overseas investors, Napier &amp; Blakeley’s managing director Alastair Walker.
“There is still a substantial amount of investment funds under management looking for a home – and the volatility in other markets serves as a reminder that Australia remains a safe haven,” says Walker, who oversees the independent property, development and sustainability consultancy.
The latest investment intentions survey from the Asian Association for Investors in Non-listed Real Estate Vehicles (ANREV) reports around AU$82.4 billion is expected to be poured into property in 2016, with the top three investment destinations in the regions of Tokyo, Sydney and Melbourne.
“Opportunity is now the great conundrum facing investors,” Walker recently blogged.
“Australia presents a transparent market with a good yield to debt ratio, but a shortage of stock is limiting investment opportunity.
“The local property investment groups who have righted their ships in the last seven years after the Global Financial Crisis are now heavily challenged by offshore investors, some with very deep pockets.”
“Our chairman, Peter Mitchell, is based in Singapore, and travels around Asia talking to investors and we get reports back every day, especially from Chinese investors wanting to get into the Australian market. These aren’t just big global funds, but a range of investors who see Australia, and particularly Sydney, as an attractive destination,” he adds.
While Sydney and Melbourne remain the “first choice” for offshore investors, Walker says they are increasingly looking further afield – and are looking beyond traditional shiny new offices.
“Expect retrofitting of existing assets – something that has been slow off the mark – to become a bigger thing in 2016,” Walker says.
Established in 1985, Napier &amp; Blakeley is an independent and privately-owned, international, integrated, property services consulting organisation.

Opportunity is the great conundrum for commercial property investors

<html><body>
A consortium led by a Macau casino boss Loi Keong Kuong-led has emerged as paying $56.5 million for Gold Coast site recently offloaded by the Hong Kong-based Forise.
Forise had paid $65 million for the 3,494 sqm site in 2015 with plans to build the Southern Hemisphere’s tallest tower.
It then spent a reported $40 million plus on construction of a six-level basement.
Roland Evans, at Canford Estate Agents, said the new owners intended to develop the planned 89-floor tower but changing the interior design and layout to incorporate a luxury-brand hotel.
The consortium members are operating through trustee company 3 Trickett Street.
The ownership of company 3 Trickett Street is primarily held by the Loi family and, according to company records, includes Chinese billionaire Riyu Li, one-time investor in the three-tower Jewel beachfront project south of Surfers Paradise, with 10 per cent.
Loi, who owns Macau’s Rio casino, also paid $90 million in early 2018 for the Soul Boardwalk retail area north of the Spirit site.
The local paper The Gold Coast Bulletin reported Forise’s disastrous Gold Coast foray saw it locked out of a $3 million sales display suite close to the Spirit site.
Yun Wei “Fenix” Dong, was the CEO of Forise Investment Australia, the company behind the abandoned Spirit development.
Creditors were taking legal action over unpaid debts, including WorkCover Queensland, which sought an application to wind up the company to recoup $19,000.
Parties connected to the development have now been paid and the few buyers have had their deposits refunded.
Forise had engaged The Agency projects team to exclusively sell and market Spirit, the $1.3 billion Gold Coast residential tower.
<div class="page" title="Page 2">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
The collapse of Forise impacted on The Agency projects team, since it was the biggest deal signed by the division headed by Steven Chen.
Spirit had 479 DBI designed apartments to sell, including an entire floor penthouse, boasting over 1000 sqms that Chen expected to sell for in excess of $30 million.
As its building base works commenced in the first quarter of 2017 The Agency was expecting commission to flow following its 2020 completion.
During the company’s embarassing exit, chairman Xin Wang sold his $3.6 million 68th floor sub-penthouse in Soul, with Paul Ledgerwood at The Agency securing the sale, in conjunction with Laura Langford at Canford Property Group.
It had been bought for $3.5 million in 2013 from Juniper, the developer.

Macau casino boss boosts Gold Coast market with Forise acquisition

Off-shore investors are making a lot of investments across Melbourne’s eastern corridor property market, with more than $1 billion in acquisitions over the last five years, according to CBRE.
Director Investments, Mark Wizel, said the off-shore buyers accounted for marginally under 50 per cent of buyers (116) of the 234 properties, which sold through CBRE alone, for a total of $2.43 billion over five years from 2014.
Mr Wizel said the bulk of the acquisitions had been sub $30 million however the list included two major acquisitions - the Burwood One Shopping Centre ($181.5m) (pictured in title) which sold to a Hong Kong investor, and 353-383 Burwood Hwy, Forest Hill which was purchased at an undisclosed price by a Chinese buyer.
According to a Fairfax media study from August 2017 based on data from the 2016 Census, the eastern suburbs, and particularly Glen Waverley and Box Hill, are dominated by Chinese migrants as the second most populous group after Australian born residents. In Box Hill, near the centre of the eastern corridor, almost 30 per cent of the population was born in China.
Some of the most recent sales to off-shore investors include:
<ul>
<li>12 Lakeside Drive, Burwood East - $25.5m;</li>
<li>Maroondah Shopping Centre - $18.8m;</li>
<li>941-947 Whitehorse Rd, Box Hill - $13.3 million;</li>
<li>60-62 Maroondah Hwy, Ringwood - $28.3m; and,</li>
<li>42-50 Burwood Hwy, Burwood East - $18.17m.</li>
</ul>
Mr Wizel said, "I expect an equally strong response from the international investment community to several investment opportunities currently on the market including iProsperity Group’s Century City Walk Shopping Centre and the adjoining 200-room Novotel Melbourne hotel on Springvale Road, Glen Waverley."

Off-shore investors spent over $1 billion in Melbourne’s east

GUEST OBSERVATION
Skilled professionals are increasingly likely to have an equally skilled partner at home. This makes it harder for companies to fill overseas positions when the move affects two professional careers.
Multinational corporations are starting to recognise and try to understand the complexities of managing talent globally. But we wondered whether they are considering the “right” scope of complexities. As an example of these complexities, and contrary to popular belief, the expatriate spouse – not the expatriate – remains the number one influence on the success of overseas postings.
Three major, interrelated elements create this largely unrecognised complexity.
The family context
An overseas assignment can be an enriching experience for the whole family, but making it a success is a different story. Career paths are no longer choices for a single breadwinner, but compromises between couples or within families.
This means there are a number of stakeholders to consider when an overseas assignment is on offer. The dynamics between the various immediate family members play a major role in whether the assignment is a success.
Research often reports organisational support for spouses as either inadequate or misaligned. One reason for this is that organisations do not have a good enough understanding of expatriate spouse experiences and attitudes to relocation.
Most recently, research has identified that there are four different types of spouses – some more resilient and ready for an international relocation than others. This is to say that spouses and their personal and professional career endeavours may differ greatly. And the lack of knowledge about this makes it difficult to manage.
The reason for any inadequacy or misalignment of organisational support might well stem, then, from not fully understanding the journey of the other family members who are likely invested but involuntarily affected by the way the assignment is managed.
This type of reasoning similarly applies to families with a female breadwinner, families with or without children, those who identify as LGBTIQ, single parents and families going through a divorce, among other scenarios. The chart below illustrates the range of family contexts.
<img src="https://images.theconversation.com/files/232212/original/file-20180816-2915-sgy80t.png?ixlib=rb-1.1.0&amp;q=45&amp;auto=format&amp;w=754&amp;fit=clip" alt="">
Corporate support for people on overseas assignments needs to consider the diversity of possible family contexts. Author provided
Philosophically, it is about managing the family as a dynamic and complex network of actors. That is in addition to the complexities inherent in any particular individual employee or family member.
The assignment context
We are seeing an increase in the types of international assignments, including short-term, long-term, rotational, flex-assignments and so forth. You can add to this the propatriate (a professional expatriate committed to their parent company), the glopatriate (a globetrotting expatriate committed to a global career beyond their parent company), the inpatriate (a relocation from the subsidiary into HQ) and the self-initiated expatriate (a non-organisational form of expatriation) among others. We now have many assignment types – some of which have not existed or been recognised as such, say, ten years ago.
The assignment type matters to the multinational corporation. It is the context for the length, purpose and expatriate and family allowances of the assignment.
The location context
Globalisation continues to create opportunities across borders. These in turn are linked to international assignment opportunities.
Today, countries like China, Brazil, India, Argentina, Mexico, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Angola, Nigeria and Iraq present some of the greatest challenges for international assignees, their partners and children.
But what do we really know about these countries? And to what extent are dual-career families ready (or supported) to relocate to these places and be successful – as a family or as individuals?
Another difficult challenge to manage is the fact that some assignment locations are considered more dangerous than others. Some research suggests this keeps potential expatriates and their families from considering the assignment in the first place.
Managing challenges of diversity is key
In short, the increased diversity of assignments – in all ways – presents policy and compliance challenges for talent management departments. Creating the right tools to enable multinational corporations to understand and respond swiftly to these challenges is key to competing and winning with a global talent strategy.
Global mobility specialists must fully understand past, present and potential trends to then acquire the agility needed to manage talent in today’s world – across diverse demographic, assignment and family contexts.

In the end however, if the expatriate and their family are not convinced this will be a good experience, no amount of deliberation or support will make it a success. The real key to success is to ensure the expatriates and their families understand their “window of opportunity” for such a life-changing move.

Starting with the spouse is the secret to managing overseas postings for modern families

Sydney and Melbourne have traditionally been a favourite of offshore property investors, but now Canberra seems to be catching up, according to real estate firm Colliers International.
The firm expects several new entrants in Canberra over the next 12 months, according to a media release.
Matthew Winter, an investment services executive at Colliers, met investors in Singapore, Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Guangzhou and learnt about their interest in Canberra. 
“Investors are keen to learn more about Australia’s capital city, Canberra,” he said. 
“Over the past six months there’s been an increase in enquiry to secure Canberra assets by foreign investors, however, many large investors are sitting back and watching the property market before making their move.”
Canberra Airport will offer direct flights to Singapore later this year, making it easier for investors to visit the city and inspect potential assets, he said.
“Asia-based investors understand the relative value of Canberra assets with long-term government tenants, which was seen with the Louisa Lawson building sale late last year for $225 million to South Korean property investor, FG Asset Management. The building was sold with a cap rate of six per cent which is a much better return compared to what many Asian investors are getting in their own countries.”
He cited the example of Japan which currently has negative interest rates and a bond yield of 0.2 per cent, while investing in Australian property can easily earn six to seven per cent returns in the long term.
One of the obstacles of securing foreign investment in Canberra is the scale of property, which is often significantly smaller than what investors are after, according to Colliers International. Many wealthy private investors and syndicates in Asia are looking to spend in excess of $100 to $150 million to build large-scale precincts or acquire large core-plus assets. 
Asian city skylines are filled with apartment towers as developers try to achieve the maximum yield of units on the sites. Often these developments are built quickly and the quality of the developments vary. 
In Shenzhen, single developers are known for constructing 15 to 20 towers on one site, more than 40-storeys high per tower and the design of the towers are identical.
In Singapore, the landscape looks significantly different to many other Asian cities. Singapore has a mix of heritage and new buildings, however, they have a lot of planning controls in place to encourage the development of green buildings and green living. Many developments are of high quality and designed to be environmentally friendly.
Matthew said that more than 100 investors gathered in Singapore to hear from Colliers about the Australian property market on his recent trip.
“Unlike in Hong Kong and China where majority of investors are wealthy privates and developers, Singapore has more Institutions and REITs looking to invest in Australia.
Colliers has showcased 97 properties across nine Asian cities in the past three years, meeting with Asia-based investment groups which has resulted in more than $1 billion in property transactions.
