Blending lifestyle with luxury: Inside Neutral Bay's Bala apartments

The Graaf retail and development dynasty are set to redevelop one of Potts Point's most iconic buildings into four luxury terraces.

The Graaf family, led by Graaf Founder, Managing Director, and family patriarch Gennaro Autore, have submitted a development application for 20-26 Bayswater Road, the heritage-listed Mansions Terraces which they secured last year for $22 million. They were previously the home of the famous Candy's Apartments Nightclub, as well as the backpacker hotspot World Bar, which occupied two of the terraces.

The terraces will be fully redeveloped and extended, which will free up more commercial space on the ground level.

The terraces themselves will have four bedrooms across the new 340 sqm of internal living space. The attic level will be converted into a full floor master suite with a rooftop terrace.

Tony Leung from A+ Design Group has drawn up the plans which aim to keep the "fingers" which have become synonymous with the site.

<img alt="Mansions Potts Point" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="e61f4802-cbaa-4d19-84a8-993f492778f8" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-13%20at%207.57.10%20am.png?VersionId=8czUJsgM86Q7XJWHFQ0cI2qam0Nfh_2j" />

"The proposed development involves alterations and additions to an existing building, with majority of the existing front façade on Bayswater Road and the four ‘fingers’ on Mansion Lane being retained,"&nbsp;the design verification statement submitted by Leung noted.

The lower ground and ground floor at the rear are proposed to be demolished and rebuilt with two new basement levels. The above ground works are proposed between the existing “fingers” and an additional part-floor attic level under roof space at the existing building height threshold.

"It respects the existing heritage building fabric by delicately curating rear wings design, to enable a contemporary and contextual fitting addition to the buildings while being able to provide a positive contribution to both existing and future public domain," the reported stated.

"The site presents a unique opportunity to revitalise the surrounding commercial with integrated residential neighbourhood because of its’ location,"

"It offers an extensive network in proximity to existing shops, public and private transportation, linking major arterial roads to the city, eastern suburbs and northern beaches."

The terraces are just 150 metres East of Kings Cross Train Station, and there are extensive public transport links in front of the site on Bayswater Road.

Graaf has a long history in both retail and property development. As well as handling the distribution of luxury retail brands&nbsp;Missoni and Brunello Cucinelli in Australia, they've been part of a number of commercial redevelopment projects across Sydney, including The Trust Building in the Sydney CBD, The Amalfi Way on Woolloomooloo wharf, as well as a number of store fitouts.&nbsp;

The terraces will be fully redeveloped and extended, which will free up more commercial space on the ground level

A mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments will be on offer, ranging from 80 sqm to 125 sqm internally.

Each adjoins to generous winter gardens, which have been designed as an extension of the living spaces, so that views and outdoor living can be maximised.

Sun Property Group head back to Mosman to deliver their latest set of residential apartments

Alton Property Group have amalgamated a massive nine lot site in the heart of the exclusive Neutral Bay on Sydney&#39;s Lower North Shore, with plans to create a 40-apartment development.

Designed by A+ Design Group at 4-14 Merlin Street,&nbsp;the proposal involves alterations and additions to an existing nine-storey residential building, demolition of existing dwellings on six lots, and&nbsp;the construction of a four-storey residential flat development with a rooftop communal open space and residential amenities on the ground floor.

&ldquo;The scale of the buildings has been carefully modulated in bulk, height, landscaped area and spatial separation controls to represent an expression of the desired character in the locality,&rdquo; A+ Design Group Architect, Tony Leung, noted in their submission.

<img alt="" height="1098" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/screen_shot_2022-05-10_at_10.55.02_pm.png" width="2214" />

Set to comprise a mix of four one-bedroom, 17 two-bedroom and 19 three-bedroom apartments, the development aims to keep with the demand in the marketplace, which is predominantly for owner occupiers looking for two and three-bedroom spaces.

The planning and arrangement of the apartments have been designed to maximise solar access, natural ventilation and daylight with a focus on blending the inside to the out.

&ldquo;The proposal contains an appropriate composition of building and landscape elements, textures, materials and colours to reflect the positive elements of the existing neighbourhood,&rdquo; Leung added.

&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve intended to achieve a clean modern aesthetic through a selected palette of materials, as well as the articulation of the building mass.&rdquo;

A number of canopy trees will feature around the perimeter of the site, with planting along the street frontages providing privacy and a softening to the built forms, as well as planting along the western boundary creating a buffer from the Warringah Freeway.

&ldquo;The proposed landscape design is an integral part of the overall design intent&rdquo;, said Leung, with over 1,191 sqm of the site dedicated to green and open spaces.

First look: Alton Property Group to create Neutral Bay apartment development

Sun Property Group, the prominent developer in Sydney&#39;s Lower North Shore,&nbsp;is set to take on one of its highest density projects to date.

They&#39;ve secured a vast development site&nbsp;in Chatswood, which will be their first in the suburb, and are embarking on creating two towers, with around 180 apartments, across the block at 1-17 Bowen Street.

Sun Property Group&#39;s General Manager, Cameron Johnson, says there&#39;s a lot of growth potential in the Chatswood area.

&quot;Naturally as we foresee net migration rising substantially, and workers continue to look for somewhere near employment, we believe Chatswood market has a lot of potential growth,&quot; Johnson told Urban.

While pivoting away from their more traditional boutique developments, some of which offer just a handful of apartments, Johnson believes they will still be able to attract a similar customer demographic to&nbsp;what they&#39;re used to.

&quot;While we&#39;re not producing the size of the boutique residential apartments that we usually offer, we&#39;ll still be looking to include products that over oversized,&quot; Johnson says.

&quot;We&#39;ll be doing two-bedroom apartments at around 85 sqm to 90 sqm, rather than the more traditional 70 sqm size of a regular two-bed.&quot;

Johnson says naturally there will be more investors given Chatswood&#39;s solid transport infrastructure and&nbsp;employment opportunities, but there will be stock to suit every buyer.

&quot;The three-bedders will be designed for those who either have children or are looking to start a young family, and the two-bedders will be suiting young buyers who want work from home space and on site recreation.&quot;

Construction on the site is expected to commence in early 2024, with the development to be released in stages. There should be around 70 apartments developed in the first stage, at the start of the Bowen Street site.

Tony Leung at A+ Design Group is currently working on the plans, with development application lodgement expected later this year.

The site was secured alongside SPG&#39;s funding and equity partner, Qualitas, and will add $250 million revenue to SPG&#39;s pipeline.

SPG recently broke into the Melbourne market, where they have launched Euroka, a boutique collection of apartments in the heart of Toorak, one of Melbourne&#39;s blue chip suburbs.

Euroka&nbsp;is inspired by Melbourne&rsquo;s iconic Roy Grounds House &ndash; once home to one of Victoria&rsquo;s most influential modern architects.

The renowned architect and design firm,&nbsp;Carr Design, has created the 10 luxury apartments, which includes two ultra-luxury penthouses.

Sun Property Group's General Manager, Cameron Johnson, says there's a lot of growth potential in the Chatswood area

Set in the heart of one of Sydney&rsquo;s most prized harbour enclaves, Ashton is a brand-new addition to the Lower North Shore.

Located on Spit Road, this private sanctuary is the epitome of luxury with 14 residences meticulously planned.

Designed by a+ Design Group, Ashton was the winner of the Sydney Design Awards 2020.

Urban takes a look at five reasons you should consider an apartment at Ashton.

1. Developed by Sun Property

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29139 project_image_fid=82423]

Since its inception in 2010, Sun Property has grown an enviable portfolio of projects, specialising in premium boutique residences and mixed-used developments across Sydney&rsquo;s Lower North Shore.

The developers create engaging places that boast exceptional urban amenities and a quality lifestyle.

Sun Property is a property development company which is dedicated to the creation of quality residential projects

2. Luxurious Residences

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29139 project_image_fid=82424]

Graceful in design and presence, each of the boutique apartments beautifully captures the essence of Mosman&rsquo;s proud cultural heritage.

The architects, a+ Design Group, have tailored the space with light, geometry and proportion, with a unique identity and careful considerations.

The Hamptons-inspired interiors provide a canvas for each residents&rsquo; personal flair.

3. Lower North Shore Location

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29139 project_image_fid=82425]

Ashton sets a new standard for burgeoning developments in Mosman, with a prime position delivering convenience and a community feel.

The development is surrounded by the backdrop of Sydney Harbour and its national park and is just footsteps from the vibrant Mosman village scene.

This includes its beaches, art galleries, grand historic homes, caf&eacute; culture and direct transport to Sydney&rsquo;s CBD.

4. Impressionist-inspired Architecture 

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29139 project_image_fid=82426]

Ashton&rsquo;s architecture is influenced by the narrative of an impressionist painting.

The project is named in honour of Julian Ashton, a well-established artist in both oils and water-colour known for his romantic figure-paintings and his Australian landscapes.

Artists&#39; camps flourished around Sydney Harbour in the 1880s and 1890s, mainly in the Mosman area making it &quot;Australia&#39;s most painted suburb&quot;, and its iconic shoreline has captured the hearts of many of Australia&rsquo;s most famous artists.

5. Resident Amenities

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29139 project_image_fid=82421]

The Mosman development features communal amenities for its residents and generous living areas.

Apartments flow into an expansive outdoor terrace or wintergarden, as well as a rooftop garden with views overlooking Sydney and Mosman&rsquo;s surrounding streets.

Among its other features include ground-floor commercial space, basement parking, lift access and full security.

Residences in the complex begin from just $845,000.

Five reasons to secure a Sydney apartment at the exclusive Mosman residence, Ashton

In mid-2019, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/news/st-leonard-the-landmark-tower-tops-out-at-43-storeys" target="_blank">we reported on the groundbreaking of a St Leonards site</a> which would soon be home to Sydney&#39;s new 43-storey skyscraper, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards" target="_blank">The Landmark</a>. This month The Landmark is set to celebrate its topping out, with a ceremony to be held later this month ahead of the building&#39;s completion in October.&nbsp;

As the development nears the end of the construction timeline, the boutique collection of 7 penthouses are now available for sale, with price points ranging from $11m to $18m. Only five homes remain due to two properties being snapped up in the early stages of the launch.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1272" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/thelandmark-2.png" width="2306" /></a>

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1200" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/thelandmark-11.png" width="2386" /></a>

Designed by award-winning architects A+ Design Group in association with Warren &amp; Mahoney, each penthouse features unique elements including, sculptural staircases, private lifts and koi ponds.

Purchasers will be able to customise their homes with furniture pieces from luxury brands including Fendi Casa, Versace Home, Armani Casa, and Bugatti Home.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1320" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/thelandmark-14.png" width="2384" /></a>

The Landmark is located in Sydney&#39;s lower north shore, which is currently experiencing rapid market growth, due to its close proximity to major employment hubs and improved access to infrastructure. The area is set to reach 5,600 residents by 2036, making it a popular suburb among both investors and owner-occupiers.&nbsp;

Infrastructure upgrades in the area could also contribute to the increase in demand for property, with the $112 million North Shore Health Hub offering medical care and employment in surgery, physiotherapy, pharmacy, dentistry, allied health, research and education services. The&nbsp;projected health and technology sectors in the area will deliver up to 7,130 new jobs over the next two decades.

Colliers International Residential Director, Blake Schulze, has noticed a growing demand for luxury penthouses in recent months.&nbsp;

&quot;We have also experienced increasing enquiry on both Aqualuna at Milsons Point and Merrinda at Kurraba Point. The majority of the enquiry has been from owner-occupiers currently living on the Lower North Shore and a smaller selection from interstate.&quot;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7135 project_image_fid=28891]

Urban has also identified an increase in demand for luxury housing, with a 42% uptake in enquiries for properties over $1.5m in Sydney over the last 12 months compared to 2020. So far in 2021, Queensland has seen a staggering 86% increase in enquiries on luxury apartments and townhouses valued at over $1.5 million and a 19% increase in Victoria.&nbsp;

&quot;We&#39;re seeing our downsizer audience continue to gravitate toward the luxury end of the market; projects with strong amenity and high-quality penthouse options are getting a lot of attention.&quot;

Mike Bird, CEO Urban.com.au

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards" target="_blank"><img alt="" height="1342" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/thelandmark-8.png" width="928" /></a>

Apartment living can offer some of the most incredible views in a city &ndash; with The Landmark&#39;s seven two-storey penthouses showcasing&nbsp;uninterrupted panoramic views spanning the northern beaches to Sydney Harbour and the Blue Mountains.&nbsp;

&quot;The increasing levels of demand for luxury off-the-plan apartments in Sydney is primarily driven due to the continual growth and high price points being achieved in the established house market. Due to this, we have experienced a growing number of downsizers which are intending to sell their homes and opting for a recently completed or off-the-plan apartment. In addition to this, the record low interest rates is further influencing increasing demand.

Majority of purchasers are local, primarily from the North Shore. We have had a small proportion of offshore buyers due to the challenges to travel with international boarder restrictions. We anticipate the demand for off-the-plan apartments within Sydney will increase as the boarders open.&quot;

Blake Schulze, Residential Director, Colliers

It will be interesting to observe sales statistics over the coming months as travel restrictions ease and more buyers enter the property market.&nbsp;

$11M+ properties proving popular among buyers in Sydney's lower north shore, as The Landmark sales skyrocket

<html><body>
<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/sydney-nsw">Sydney’s</a> latest development, aptly entitled <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-landmark-500-pacific-highway-st-leonards">The Landmark</a>, has recently embarked on the construction of the towering 43-storey building. The momentous day was celebrated with a symbolic soil turning, with special guests including Lane Cover Council Mayor Pam Palmer and General Manager Craig Wrightson in attendance. With architecture led by <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/design-group">A+ Design Group</a>, the structure has been inspired by the fluidity of Sydney’s harbour, depicted in the building’s organic, undulating façade. The Landmark is also set to become the tallest mixed-use residential building on Sydney’s lower North Shore, standing at an impressive 138 metres.

<blockquote>
“This new piece of iconic architecture will redefine the skyline of St Leonards and give a new identity to the area. We are excited to open a new chapter and to see this life-changing project taking shape. Our architectural vision is becoming a reality.”
