Elizabeth Bay has netted one of its highest apartment sales to date with a $24 million sale of a sub penthouse in the under-construction apartment development, Billyard Ave.

The highest price was set when the whole floor penthouse within the same project sold for $30 million to&nbsp;former head of USB Matt Allen, the owner of Sydney to Hobart winning ocean racer, Ichi Ban.

The other su bpenthouse sold for $22 million to Paul Keating’s confidante and lawyer Chris Coudounaris, and the garden manor residence sold for $17.5 million to Tina Green, widow of the late hotelier Maurice Green.&nbsp;

There are just&nbsp;nine residences in the high-end development that is almost complete.&nbsp;

The recent buyers of the sub penthouse are an Eastern Suburbs couple relocating from a large family home in Bellevue Hill with a strong affiliation with Elizabeth Bay. The property’s size, location, and unparalleled finishes were key factors in their decision to purchase.

Ray White Projects Managing Director,&nbsp;Eddie Mansour, says the sale of the sub penthouse at Billyard Ave demonstrates the unwavering demand for premium properties in this prestigious location.

"The unique features and the exceptional design of this residence have attracted buyers looking for something truly special," Mansour said.

“This sale not only underscores the rarity of house-sized apartments in the market, but also the continued trend of buyers looking to rightsize, rather than downsize, without compromising on luxury.

“The demand for these unique residences is stronger than ever.”

Developer Peter Walsh from NorthEast Corp, in collaboration with Philippe Remond of P3 Living, is very proud of the project’s success.&nbsp;

"We envisioned a residence that met the needs of discerning buyers who value size, features, and finishes," Walsh says.

"The local market's reception has exceeded our expectations, proving that our vision resonates with those looking to embrace a luxurious lifestyle in the Eastern Suburbs,” Walsh said.

Joint venture partners&nbsp;Abadeen Group and PERIFA have received the green light to develop their first mixed-use project together – Putney Wharf Residences.

The $300 million heritage adaptive reuse site, being financed by Phoenix Property Investors and Mitsubishi Estate Asia, boasts 300 metres of water frontage on the harbour at Putney in Sydney’s northwest, 14km from the CBD.

Located on the historic site of the former Halvorsen’s boatshed, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/putney-wharf-residences-20-waterview-street-putney">Putney Wharf Residences</a> will comprise a premium, lifestyle-oriented, mixed-use wharf precinct including 67 luxury apartments and townhouses complemented by sophisticated waterfront dining and retail along with a 36-berth marina.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=13962 project_image_fid=291195]

The project will offer a mix of three-storey townhouses and apartments comprising heritage components including original timber beams and other preserved materials, creating stunning character-rich interiors with a nod to the boating history of the site.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/perifa">PERIFA</a> Managing Director and Co-Founder Fabrizio Perilli called Putney a "hidden harbourside gem."&nbsp;

“Putney Wharf Residences represents a flagship development for PERIFA as our first major prestige harbourfront mixed-use development in Sydney, and the first of what we hope will be many more ventures with Abadeen, delivering excellence and innovation.

“<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/putney-nsw-2112">Putney</a> is a hidden harbourside gem, and Putney Wharf Residences offers an extraordinary opportunity to transform this rare waterfront site into a premium mixed-use development akin to the prestigious Woolloomooloo Wharf, with exceptional dining and residential combined to create the ultimate in waterfront living.”

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen Group</a>&nbsp;Chief Operating Officer Joe Tack said the regeneration of the Putney Wharf Residences precinct is an important restoration project for the community, having been&nbsp;disused and closed to the public for several decades.

"With such a rich history having been the home to Sydney’s most successful and prolific boat building business established in 1939 by the Halvorsen family, we feel a sense of pride in restoring, preserving and celebrating a significant piece of Sydney’s boating history.&nbsp;

"This is a unique opportunity to revitalise, restore and breathe new life into a significant waterfront parcel of land, delivering a premium lifestyle-oriented wharf precinct within which all of Sydney will want to live, dine, entertain and socialise, and we’re delighted to be partnering with PERIFA to bring this new precinct to life.”

Abadeen and PERIFA greenlit to develop Putney Wharf Residences

Ali Mohammed's Positive Investment Enterprise is continuing to bolsters its apartment development pipeline in Sydney's most affuleunt harbourside suburbs.

Positive Invest, who is behind the luxury Rose Bay apartment development Kew Hillcrest, has filed plans for its rare three-lot amalgamation at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/80-84-drumalbyn-road-woollahra">80-84 Drumalbyn Road, Bellevue Hill</a>.

They're planning&nbsp;26 two, three and four-bedroom apartments across a six-level building. The building however presents as two levels street from street, tiering down the sloping block.

<img alt="Bellevue" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="ab8abcf8-ed00-46a1-b079-d72ff225d8ac" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-07-24%20at%2010.34.11%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=iH6Wu_u1d_jyg.dB.egjYFUVAlEchehl" />

The building, which will cost nearly $34 million to construct, has been designed by MHNDUnion who says the apartment mix&nbsp;is consistent with market demand and would suit the demographic mix of couples, small families, retirees and downsizers living within the surrounding area.

The Urban Design Report submitted by Atlas Urban suggested <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/bellevue-hill-nsw-2023">Bellevue Hill</a> lacks the right type of housing in the right location "age in place."

They said it's an area of a well-established wealthy and increasingly elderly community, adding that much of the housing stock is mid-20th century walk-up buildings.

"[There's a] limited provision of new housing in residential streets surrounding the centre [of Bellevue Hill]," the report noted

"The subject site is part of a precinct of R3 medium residential apartments. Its neighbours are all multi-residential, while on the far side of the gully is R2 low-density housing.

"Many of the houses in the area are large and include private tennis courts and swimming pools. The apartments help to bring density and activation to the area and provide housing diversity."

<img alt="Bellevue" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3013c00b-8c69-4fe2-9e8d-eaf11eac6635" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-07-24%20at%2010.21.01%E2%80%AFAM.png?VersionId=7_X6PLH3fE_oGRWElL0QwPPdtjv8yhpf" />

There will be a communal resident area in the new development with a lounge, adjoining gym, and a tiered terrace that runs down to a swimming pool. On the same level is a three-bed plus MPR apartment that has its own pool.

There are four apartments proposed on levels one, two and three, six apartments on level four, four on level five, and then two penthouses on level six.

The three-bed apartments range in size from 118 sqm to 189 sqm, the larger ones with a fourth bedroom or an MPR.

Renowned landscape architecture firm Dangar Barin Smith said the landscape design for 80-84 Drumalbyn Road incorporates a carefully selected planting palette designed to effectively deal with the differing micro-climate sensitivities of the site.

"The front landscape exists in very limited natural light due to the oversized Fig Trees on the council verge. This area requires plantings that are conducive to low light conditions and forest floor/rainforest plant communities. A range of exotics are suggested where appropriate in conjunction with natives to ensure a long-term evergreen appearance and the prevention of weed growth."

Currently on the site is three residential flat buildings with brick facades and hipped tile roofs.

"The existing buildings are effectively enclosed brick boxes without access to outdoor spaces," Atlas Urban said.

Design-led developer Orchard Piper’s latest mixed-use, super-premium offering in Melbourne’s most affluent enclave, Toorak Village, has solidified its status as the city’s most exclusive address - achieving the sales of both sub-penthouses for record rates.

The level four residences located at the corner of Mathoura Road and Toorak Road, Toorak, each sold for north of $11.5 million, exceeding $38,000 per square metre.

These sales mark the project as over 70 per cent sold and bring the building’s average sales price per apartment to $8 million, with an average per square metre rate exceeding $32,000 – the highest of any building ever in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/melbourne-vic">Melbourne</a>, according to Chris Pulvirenti, Director of Savills Melbourne.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/orchard-piper">Orchard Piper</a>&nbsp;Director Luke McKie says the recent sales, combined with the overall strong reception to the project, have been encouraging in what is a two-speed market.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134093 project_image_fid=275649]

“The market has responded with confidence to this extremely rare opportunity within the Village as it goes about a period of significant renewal and transformation," McKie says.

"These sales demonstrate the deep local demand for high-quality, tasteful architectural development. It marks the reception of a new &nbsp;design standard for Melbourne – a theme we continuously aim to exceed across our portfolio.”&nbsp;

With the project designed by internationally renowned <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/kerry-hill-architects">Kerry Hill Architects</a>, the two sub-penthouses boast impressive house-like proportions - each around 330 sqm in size and with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple living zones and three car spaces.&nbsp;

The sub-penthouse sales further complement the earlier sale of the project’s 400 sqm penthouse, &nbsp;which was achieved last year for $12.5 million.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134093 project_image_fid=275654]

Orchard Piper Director, Rick Gronow, says all three residences - the penthouse and sub-penthouses &nbsp;- were sold to existing Toorak locals through the developer’s own networks. &nbsp;

“They are all downsizers—Toorak residents not wanting to leave the community they know, but wanting a step up in quality, amenity and an increase in security at a more manageable scale,” said Gronow.&nbsp;

“They also recognise the change happening in Toorak Village, as new retail, restaurants and &nbsp;occupants continue to fill the old spaces of the Village - reinvigorating it and bringing new energy.” &nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134093 project_image_fid=275651]

Fronting 109 Mathoura Road, the residential building encompasses nine spacious apartments, each with a minimum of three bedrooms and three on-grade, side-by-side car spaces. Offering a level of privacy for residents not typically provided, each residence comes with its own private lobby, with a maximum of two properties per floor. &nbsp;

The project will also have three floors of premium offices, with a covered retail colonnade activating the street level. Four of the five full-floor and half-floor premium-grade strata office stock, ranging from 210 sqm to 930 sqm, have been sold, achieving an average sales rate exceeding $18,500 per square metre.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134093 project_image_fid=275648] 
&nbsp; 
<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/toorak-village-toorak-109-mathoura-road-toorak">Toorak Village</a> marks the first of three exclusive projects in the Orchard Piper and Kerry Hill Architects alignment, which will see KHA’s designs brought to Melbourne for the first time. This includes a $400 &nbsp;million super-premium mixed-use project located at the previous, well-known Mercedes Benz Toorak site at 7–11A and 17–19 Carters Avenue, as well as a $300 million, 17-storey 5-star hotel and developer-branded residences situated at the heart of Melbourne's sporting, entertainment and arts precinct, at 448 St Kilda Road.&nbsp;

Construction for Orchard Piper’s Toorak Village project is well underway, and due for completion in the second half of 2025. Orchard Piper’s Albert Street Melbourne project is due for completion in early 2025 as well.&nbsp;

Trescon to build record-breaking Mosman apartment development

Luxury apartment developer Central Element has revealed what it intends to do with its prime Bondi Beach site they acquired last year.

The developer, led by Nathan Chivas, has filed plans for seven luxury residences on the amalgamated 2,050 sqm site fronting Sandridge and Wilga streets.

CE paid around $50 million for 20-22 Sandridge Street and 21 Wilga, Street a sloping block which runs down to the Bondi to Coogee walk.

At the top of the site fronting Sandridge Street there will be two duplex-style homes above a turntable parking system which will offer each residence two parking spaces.

Flipping the traditional home on its head to maximise the ocean views from the living spaces, CE had Brian Meyerson's MHNDUnion position the three bedrooms on the ground level. The master suite, at the rear of the building, will feature a walk through wardrobe, ensuite, and a 35 sqm terrace with a plunge pool and a built-in barbecue and bar space.

The lower ground level of the boutique apartment building will home two 150 sqm, side-by-side apartments with three bedrooms and a 65 sqm terrace with a pool.

The ground level is a 190 sqm unit with three bedrooms, a study space, and a living space which opens to a full width 95 sqm terrace with a spa.

Above will be arguably the most impressive residence of all, a 217 sqm apartment with three bedrooms, a home office that could double up as a second living room, and the same size terrace as below with the best views over the ocean.

MHNDUnion noted in their Design Statement submitted to the Waverley City Council that the sloping terrain offers excellent vantage points showcasing Ben Buckler, Bondi Beach, and Squid Bay to the north and northeast.

"Benefiting from proximity to the vibrant Bondi life, the site is conveniently close to the commercial strip along Bondi Road, and a number of shops, restaurants, and bars including Bondi Iceberg. Additionally, it establishes a more secluded connection with the surroundings, providing access to views in the north/ northeast and the coastal walk on the east."

They said the architectural design of the residential flat building at the rear adapts to the sloping site by incorporating stepped structures.

"The residential flat building incorporates sculptural blade walls and textured panels on its facade, strategically opening towards the scenic views. In contrast, the houses exhibit a simpler built form with brick details and undercover entries along the building’s sides."

"The proposal will provide a high quality and sympathetic addition to the neighbourhood, whilst offering a variety of housing options for different demographics and living needs."

When speaking to Nathan Chivas late last year, he said when developing in the best locations, you have to create an A-grade product.

“If you find a location and create A-grade product that matches that location, then you know you’ll have strong demand no matter where the property cycle is at,” Chivas says.

He spoke about having to bring a story to life at the top end of the market, whether it's through bringing in heritage or other luxury design element.

"Ultimately these types of developments need to be a cut above the rest. They need to be more than an apartment in a great location. The money demanded by these projects, and the buyers of the projects, demand nothing less."

First look exclusive: Central Element's ultra-luxe Bondi Beach plans revealed

When new projects in Sydney's sought-after Eastern Suburbs hit the market, there's always an air of interest given the expectation these apartments need to capture the attention of those who live in the most affluent area in Australia.

That interest is always heightened when the architecture is as striking as the latest new off the plan apartment development, Giardino in <a href="/developments/bellevue-hill-nsw-2023">Bellevue Hill</a>, just 10 apartments at 117 O'Sullivan Road.

It only took two pictures to realise that's because it's been designed by the revered Italian-born architect <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/luigi-rosselli-architect">Luigi Rosselli</a>.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112895 project_image_fid=253708]

1st City agent Zac Albert says they frequently get buyers come to them "asking for a Luigi", like it's a piece of art. In a lot of ways, it is.

Rosselli has been at the forefront of the Sydney architecture scene since emigrating to Australia in the mid-1980s. While predominantly focusing his craft on Sydney's most grand homes, Rosselli occasionally lends his design expertise to the multi-residential market. His designs at Ode Double Bay, also marketed by 1st City, pushed the Top Spring project to record-breaking status, with a penthouse selling for $24.95 million.

The latest creation, Giardino, is another which is targeting the local downsizer who is cashing in on their family home following the tremendous price growth the trophy home market has seen, particularly in Sydney's east, over the last decade or so.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112895 project_image_fid=253710]

Italian for garden, Giardino is exclusively developed for the over 55's community, the only way a development can get the green light from the Woollahra Council in a R2 Zoned precinct.&nbsp;

The development draws inspiration from <a href="/developments/potts-point-nsw-2011">Potts Point</a>'s Wyldefel Gardens and Luigi's European background, seamlessly blending with Australian sensibilities and the surrounding topography.&nbsp;

Each apartment has three or four bedrooms and features spacious open-plan living areas with a fireplace and sliding doors opening to northeast-facing terraces.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112895 project_image_fid=253713]

Given the nature of the development, future proofing was at the forefront of the design. There's direct lift access to each apartment, as well as a care service which future occupants can opt in for.

Albert says Giardino, has all the ingredients for a fantastic project.

"Not only is Luigi one of the best and most sought-after architects in the country, landscape architect Dangar Barin Smith is handling the outdoors, and the developer Formspace has a track record of delivering high quality projects in Sydney's East."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=112895 project_image_fid=253709]

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/formspace">Formspace</a> has just completed AALTO, eight townhouses near the Rose Bay village which were all sold out before construction completed earlier this year.

Albert says no expense has been spared in the inclusions, with the interiors by Handelsmann + Khaw featuring kitchens fully stocked with Wolf, Sub Zero and Vzug appliances, as well as a&nbsp;glass-fronted walk-in pantry.

The ground floor sits above the street, so there's a&nbsp;tree canopy either offering privacy to the lower levels or a view over the canopy from the upper levels of the four-level building.

No surprise that three out of the 10 apartments have already sold, including one of the two penthouses.

Prices start at $6,395,000 and range to $7,495,000.&nbsp;There's been interest from locals, in the Vaucluse, Rose Bay ring, to enquiry from the North Shore who are wanting to sell up and move closer to their kids who live in the east.

Roselli says the apartments are designed to satisfy all the requirements of the Eastern Suburbs’ aging population.
