Blending lifestyle with luxury: Inside Neutral Bay's Bala apartments

The picturesque suburb of Neutral Bay offers residents a world of quality amenities right at their doorstep.

As close to the village as possible is often the mantra for buyers.

You can hardly get closer than Sun Property Group's Bala Residences, quietly set on Grosvenor Street, only two streets back from Military Road.

Bala's design is focused on providing a life of balance, offering just 19 two and three-bedroom apartments, including a selection of penthouses.

Designed by a+ architecture, Bala has been designed to seamlessly integrate with the streetscape, with the apartments welcoming an abundance of natural light, clean air, and the tranquility that characterises the quiet leafy suburb.

Following an open plan layout, the architects have created a flow between the living and kitchen spaces, with each adjoining to spacious balconies which take in views to the neighbourhood. 

The kitchens at Bala exude elegance and functionality, with premium designs featuring Calacatta stone benches and splashbacks, in addition to top-of-the-line Miele gas cooktops, ovens, microwaves, rangehoods, and dishwashers. 

The development also features an array of private outdoor spaces, further enhancing Bala's connection to nature and the outdoors, including an onsite community garden.

On the doorstep of Bala are major supermarkets, health clinics, outdoor sporting facilities, and vibrant green spaces like Forsyth Park. The proximity to the harbour gives the chance for leisurely walks along the water edges, while immersing yourself in some of Sydney's most iconic views.

The Lower North Shore is also renowned for its top-performing schools, including North Sydney Boys and Girls High Schools, and Neutral Bay Public School, all situated close by. 

Construction is underway on Bala, with Impero Constructions handling the build.
