Imperial Hurstville set to officially launch

A new complex in Sydney’s Hurstville offering apartments is set for official release this year.

Offering a total of 227 one, two and three bedroom apartments across 15 levels, Imperial Hurstville is being marketed through Colliers International from $560,000 plus.

Developed by PietyTHP and designed by award-winning Stanisic Architects, the complex will include two communal sky gardens, located on levels 7 and 10. Some of the apartments offering city skyline and Botany Bay.

A display suite is now open at 23-31 Treacy Street, Hurstville. Expressions of interest are currently open, but no official launch date has been released.

Imperial Hurstville is walking distance from Hurstville train station and the local Westfield shops, while a retail level is expected to be built on the ground floor.

PietyTHP is also the developer of Bay Pavilions in Lane Cove, Focus Parramatta, Brittany in Sutherland and a ‘coming soon’ Hercules Street, Ashfield development.

The site itself has not managed to completely avoid controversy.

Local paper The Leader reported in 2012 that Hurstville Council had given up its fight to stop development on the site, at the time 21-35 Treacy Street, from occurring after losing in the Land and Environment Court. Payce Consolidated was behind the planned development at the time.

The concept plan allowed for 16 storeys, where the council allows six storeys. It was looking to bring 257 dwellings at 55 metres in height.

The Leader notes that in 2012 the development of the site was being referred to as “Punch Towers” by locals. It seems the Metropolitan Plan for Sydney 2036 allowed for this higher use development.

The Australian reported that Payce began selling their three quarter stake in the site earlier this year.
