Ironside Construction has just wrapped up works on the $31 million Croydon project, Orphic.

Orphic, developed by Eastern Wellness with funding provided by Banner Asset Management, has 50 one, two and three-bedroom apartments across its five levels.

Prices started at $350,000 for the one-bedroom apartments. 
<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0b8be84d-136b-4caa-b7b4-97e30ead07cb" href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/orphic-176-mt-dandenong-road-croydon"><img alt="Orphic" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/EWA11272_176%20Mt%20Dandenong%20Rd%20Photography_44_8482%20%281%29.jpg?VersionId=L2IWt22DcyHHZYhUIYrYqYOzHFRiaTPg" /></a>

Banner Asset Management’s Founder and CEO Andrew Turner said Orphic was a natural investment opportunity for the group due to the experience of the developer, builder and project team.&nbsp;

“We’re pleased to see the development reach completion, with the project having achieved strong presales and pre-leasing prior to the commencement of construction, reflecting the strength of the project,” Turner said.&nbsp;

“As evidenced by the success of Orphic, well-priced, premium residences and commercial spaces in Croydon are clearly in demand, and we expect continued strength in this market.”

Designed by JAM Architects, the interiors are architecturally designed with a premium level of finishes, coupled with wide format porcelain tiles in the living areas, chrome taps and floor-to-ceiling tiles in the bathrooms.

Orphic’s façade incorporates a charcoal and cream colour palette with timber highlights. Greenery weaves throughout the exterior of the development, adding a natural touch.

<a data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="57011c7a-cc73-4d79-98d6-587e6f07bc9d" href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/orphic-176-mt-dandenong-road-croydon"><img alt="Orphic" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/EWA11272_176%20Mt%20Dandenong%20Rd%20Photography_44_8892%20%281%29.jpg?VersionId=jxniwMYXTaqrLtAmsT1hM4FQVjtHDv3K" /></a>

Orphic’s ground level also includes space for five retail tenancies and an office tenancy, with the areas spanning from 118 sqm to 1,250 sqm, suiting a variety of business uses.&nbsp;

Situated within the epicentre of Croydon’s commercial and lifestyle precincts, residents have convenient access to a number of retail amenities, as well as educational opportunities, recreational parks and public transport, providing a seamless connection to Melbourne’s CBD, which is just 27-kilometres away.&nbsp;

Construction wraps on $31 million Orphic, Croydon apartments

Melbournians are not new to urban sprawl and its long lasting effects on the environment and people. 
For decades, we have felt the strain of the city’s inexorable growth with an ever-growing population and a lack of readily planned infrastructure to back it. 
These issues are quite complex to resolve and there is no one solution to the matter. 
With urban planners and architects directing their focus more so on centralised communities, we are seeing a major shift in how we progress with more mixed use developments and 20 minute neighbourhoods emerging within existing Melbourne suburbs.  The consequences of Urban Sprawl go much deeper than just the lengthy commutes and sometimes careless environmental damages but also really affects mental health. 
Sprawl is a contributing factor to the feelings of isolation through a lack of community engagement and living far from opportunities, education and hospitality services greatly lowering one’s quality of life.

Mixed use precincts often offer medium to higher density buildings comprising of residential, commercial, public amenities and opportunities. The benefits of a connected community are: 
 

Safety - 
When we live in closer proximity to each other and share communal spaces we become more tolerant, patient, respectful and generous people overall. 
This closeness creates a sense of pride and encourages community engagement with residents protecting their space and looking out for each other. 
The spaces within a mixed use precinct are kept active at ground level and with everything within a 5 minute walking distance and many providing CCTV for laneways and streets. 
 

Walkability - 

5 and 20 minute neighbourhoods can be incredibly walkable with pedestrianised retail streets, laneways, public squares and lush parks motivating locals to engage in healthier and active lifestyles. 
With no need for car dependency, the impacts on mental health through interacting with other people and nature are hugely positive. The convenience of being close to transport, work, parks and essential living needs provide a healthy environment for all demographics of people. 
 

Connectivity - 

Mixed use developments thrive in already existing activity centres where local businesses, accessibility to public transport and major avenues provide quick and painless connections to the greater surrounding areas, unite communities and prosper under-utilised space.  
 

Stronger local economies - 
Living close to local business means supporting local business. With a hairdresser across from your doorstep and the delicious coffee shop, bakery and fresh produce stores on your walk to work, residents provide a stronger economy for business owners. Mixed use developments provide countless construction and ongoing jobs and with reduced travel times and on site opportunities, affordable housing and rent remain consistent.

<figcaption>Melbourne CBD's expanding skyline.

A heavy focus on human interaction through a carefully thoughtful design with a landmark shopping centre anchored by Kmart, Woolworths and a six screen Village Cinemas, a 250 room Mantra Hotel and a substantial amount of green space for residents, workers and visitors encourages people to engage with each other and feel involved in their environment.

It’s got great public transport, great amenities and restaurants. And it’s so close to the city; as a place to live, East Brunswick has become incredibly popular over the past decade. We know people want to live here. With EBV, one of our big aims is to make living in this part of Melbourne achievable for people.

Quote from ebv.com.au

Many people fear density and infill, as a spread out suburban lifestyle is pretty much all we are accustomed to, yet we cannot continue to function this way.  
Our need for high quality mixed use commercial and residential precincts and updated rezoning policies will profoundly impact our way of life and progress our city forward into an equal urban future.
