St Kilda's Opera residential development to start 2016
Michael CrawfordDecember 7, 2020
Building of St Kilda's new 19 level teadrop-shaped residential building Opera will commence in early 2016, with completion anticipated in 2018.
Designed by local architects Bates Smart, the $190 million building at 450 St Kilda Road will include 228 one, two and three bedroom apartments. One bedrooms have one car space and the two and three bedders get two each.
Some three and four bedroom apartments, ranging from $1.12 to $2.7 million for a three bedroom and $3.1 to $4.88 million for a penthouse or sub-penthouse have already been sold.
The glass curved design requires double curved glazing panels to be installed on site – a process known as cold bending – the first of its type in Australia.
