Apartment living and Melbourne's Abbotsford come hand-in-hand, with well over half of those who live in Abbotsford calling an apartment home.&nbsp;

Despite the appetite for apartment living, there have been very few new apartment developments hit the suburb in the last decade.

Recognising this gap, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/sq-property">SQ Property</a> has launched Lulie, the first major apartment project in Abbotsford since the release of New Johnston in April 2024. Prior to that, it had been over four years since any new residential development entered the local market.

Located just 30 metres from Victoria Park Station, at the corner of Lulie and Johnston Streets, will comprise 60 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149640 project_image_fid=145]

The residences will be spread across two distinctive buildings, designed by Metaxas Architecture. The Johnston Street-facing building will rise five levels behind a classic red brick façade, echoing Abbotsford’s industrial heritage. Behind it, a taller seven-level building with a striking copper-clad and glass façade adds a modern contrast to the streetscape.

Inside, homes have been crafted with an emphasis on natural light, generous proportions, and timeless finishes. Floor-to-ceiling windows maximise northerly views over parkland, while interiors—curated by Air Design Studio—showcase warm materials, natural stone surfaces, and a soft tonal palette that connects with the outdoor environment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149640 project_image_fid=146]

Resident amenities have also been carefully considered. A co-working communal area caters to the continued rise of hybrid work lifestyles—an increasingly sought-after inclusion in new developments.

Sustainability and long-term environmental performance are core to Lulie’s design. The development includes secure car parking with provisions for electric vehicle charging, ensuring future-ready infrastructure from the outset.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149640 project_image_fid=150]

Situated within the Lower Johnston Street District, Lulie is surrounded by Abbotsford’s vibrant blend of industrial character and creative culture. The project is also just moments from the Yarra Trail, the Abbotsford Convent arts precinct, and the soon-to-be-upgraded Victoria Park Station, offering outstanding lifestyle and connectivity.

Realco agent Chris Koullapas is marketing Lulie.

Construction is already underway, with completion slated for 2026. Apartments at Lulie are priced from a competitive $600,000.

Lulie brings new apartments to the edge of Victoria Park in Abbotsford

The recently completed Doncaster apartment development, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/aradena-14-16-clay-drive-doncaster">Aradena</a>, sits on one of the most picturesque streets in the <a href="/developments/doncaster-vic-3108">suburb north-east of Melbourne</a>.

It was the second project in the Aradena series that architect Metaxas worked on with developer KPG Property Group. The <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/aradena-14-16-clay-drive-doncaster">five-level apartment building</a> at&nbsp;14-16 Clay Drive&nbsp;comprises just 22 apartments.

“<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/aradena-14-16-clay-drive-doncaster">Aradena Doncaster</a> is a highly sculptural building which follows the contours of its steeply sloping site,"&nbsp;George Metaxas, Metaxas Architects Principal, said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8504 project_image_fid=68763]

The building's façade commands attention, embracing the distinctive sloping terrain upon which it rests. With an asymmetrical profile, recessed voids and architectural protrusions imbue the structure with visual dimension, resulting in a bold yet composed contemporary aesthetic.

The restrained material palette is accentuated by sleek black window frames, featuring refined reflective glass. The entrance is adorned with verdant plantings, softening Aradena's modern exterior while harmonising with <a href="/developments/doncaster-vic-3108">Doncaster's verdant surroundings</a> and the lush foliage of Clay Drive.

Aradena's interiors, curated by Bergman &amp; Co., are a testament to artful design and attention to detail, with each residence exuding an sense of purpose and luxury that resonates with every touch.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8504 project_image_fid=68767]

“We create unique and bespoke spaces that enhance people's experiences, a notion that is distinctly tangible within Aradena’s curated interiors," Wendy Bergman, Bergman &amp; Co. Principal, said.

"At once luxurious, homely and authentic, every aspect of these homes has been meticulously considered.”

[smartcode_project:default project_id=8504 project_image_fid=68765]

At the heart of the homes lies the expansive open-plan kitchen and living area, the very soul of domestic comfort. Generous floor-to-ceiling windows harness abundant natural light, suffusing the space with an invigorating and welcoming ambiance.

The well-designed kitchens boasts modern appliances, integrated with ample storage and textured tile surfaces, as well as chic veneer joinery which marries harmoniously with warm timber floors.

Two and three-bedroom apartments are still available in the development.
