The first stage of the unique development - <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-residences-at-wahroonga-estate-169-fox-valley-road-wahroonga-nsw-2076">The Residences at Wahroonga Estate</a> - has now been released, offering a rare opportunity to experience refined apartment living in an unparalleled natural setting.

Comprising 132 apartments across three mid-rise buildings, The Residences seamlessly blend modern sophistication with lush, green surrounds. With a range of thoughtfully designed one to four-bedroom apartments, The Residences apartments cater to a diverse range of lifestyles and preferences.

We recently caught up with <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/capital-corporation">Capital Corporation</a> Director, Jim Hunter, to discuss The Residences.

“The Residences offers the pinnacle of luxury, featuring north-facing apartments with uninterrupted views of the Australian bushland, ideally situated in the heart of one of Sydney’s most iconic suburbs," Hunter says.

<h2>A Community Immersed in Nature</h2>

Wahroonga Estate offers a truly unique connection to nature. Residents will enjoy direct access to the Coups Creek bushland, which links to the renowned Lane Cove National Park and an extensive network of bushwalks and nature reserves.

The development also features a pet-friendly green spine, providing dedicated spaces for exercise and relaxation. Complementing the natural surrounds, over 8,000 sqm of private landscaped gardens, a BBQ pavilion, and a dedicated dog wash bay further enhance the outdoor lifestyle.

<h2>Exclusive Resident Amenities</h2>

The boutique residents’ lounge provides a sophisticated space for both relaxation and productivity. Designed with versatility in mind, it includes a boardroom-style table and kitchenette, ideal for meetings or entertaining guests.

Unsurprisingly, The Residences have already attracted strong interest, particularly from Upper and Lower North Shore locals seeking to downsize while maintaining a high standard of luxury and convenience.

Construction of The Residences is set to commence later this year, with completion anticipated by mid-2027.

<h2>The Developer</h2>
<h2the h2="">
Capital Corporation has established itself as a leader in delivering large-scale, master-planned communities across both urban regeneration and greenfield sites. Their impressive portfolio includes the transformation of Woolooware Bay Town Centre at Cronulla Sharks’ Shark Park and the creation of Lovedale Farm, a premium residential, resort, and golfing destination in the Hunter Valley.

Most recently, their success with ‘Bond’ at Bondi Junction, a high-end apartment development atop the revitalised Bondi Junction RSL Club, further highlights their commitment to excellence.

Inside the vision for Wahroonga Estate: Five minutes with Capital Corporation's Jim Hunter

The gap between Sydney's median house price and median unit price is growing once again, as the harbour capital bounces back from modest declines.

Interest rates have sparked momentum in the house market, which contracted by -0.9 percent for just three months before turning positive again in February with 0.3 percent growth, CoreLogic data shows.

CoreLogic's Monthly Home Value Index recorded another 0.5 percent gain in Sydney house values in March. Unit values, however, contracted by -0.1 percent.

The Sydney median house value is $1,473,000 compared to $852,000 for units, a gap of $621,000.

CoreLogic Research Director, Tim Lawless, says improved&nbsp;sentiment following the February rate cut is likely the biggest driver of the turnaround in values

<h2>What happened in Sydney's off the plan market in March?</h2>

The month kicked of with the launch of Landream's <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/pyrmont-place-14-26-wattle-street-pyrmont-nsw-2009">Pyrmont Place</a> development, across the road from the $750 million Sydney Fish Market.

Pyrmont Place will comprise 237 apartments across four buildings at the gateway to Blackwattle Bay.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138909 project_image_fid=330855]

Designed by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/bvn-architecture" target="">BVN</a>,&nbsp;Pyrmont Place&nbsp;will include a childcare centre, a two-court indoor recreation centre, and a range of communal amenities including an outdoor pool, gym, music room, communal landscaped terraces, and open spaces designed by OCULUS.

Each building will feature a distinctive façade, creating a neighbourhood vibe that harmonises with the surrounding environment.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=138909 project_image_fid=330856]

There was similar fanfare for the launch of Lovedale Farm, the Hunter Valley's newest landmark destination.

City Beat March 2025: Sydney price gap between houses and units grows as house prices surge

The European origins of the Hunter Valley date back to the early 1820s when the first small vineyard plots of about 20 acres were planted on the northern banks of the Hunter River trade route. Fast forward over two centuries and the Hunter Valley has grown to become one of the most popular regional destinations for foodies, wine lovers and golfers.

Despite the high level of interest in both living and visiting the Hunter Valley,&nbsp; development of new residential offerings has been limited. The Hunter Valley is traditionally known for its charming country homes, many of which have been in place for over a century and sit on larger rural blocks of land.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-townhouses/lovedale-farm-1184-wine-country-drive-lovedale-nsw-2325">Lovedale Farm</a>, the new residential, resort, and golf community from Capital Corporation, brings a new residential offering to those seeking the Hunter Valley lifestyle. The opportunity has not been lost on those from Sydney and Newcastle, who have already snapped up over 60 per cent of the first release.

In the heart of the Hunter Valley between Pokolbin and Rothbury, Lovedale Farm is a masterplanned golf development that will span an almost unrepeatable 240 hectares.

Every detail has been designed to be in keeping with the character of the local region, from half of the site being dedicated to green open spaces, bush restoration and recreation, to the design of three and four-bedroom residences, crafted as a rural retreat for 21st-century living.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=14476 project_image_fid=334207]

The golf-first design principle ensures the course remains a focal point, with a British heathland-style layout providing both strategic play and scenic views. Complementing the community will be an epicurean dining precinct featuring farm-to-table dining and a mix of local producers. The boutique resort will include luxury amenities such as a swimming pool, fitness facilities, and leisure spaces.

With seven kilometres of walking trails and a landscape inspired by the area’s natural beauty, Lovedale Farm is designed to provide both residents and visitors with an authentic rural lifestyle experience.

Capital Corporation is officially unveiling its display suite at nearby Hunter Valley Gardens on March 15. The event, Gather on the Green, will feature local food, wine, and entertainment.&nbsp;

Capital Corporation has an enviable track record for creating large-scale, masterplanned communities across urban regeneration and greenfield sites. They’ve been behind the development of Woolooware Bay Town Centre at Cronulla Sharks Shark Park.&nbsp; More recently they are working on a multi-stage development in Wahroonga, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/the-residences-at-wahroonga-estate-169-fox-valley-road-wahroonga-nsw-2076">The Residences</a>, which will bring the first-ever large-scale development to the popular Upper North Shore suburb.

Last year they completed The Bond, working in tandem with the Bondi Junction RSL Club to develop 80 high-end apartments above a brand new RSL Club on Gray Street Bondi Junction.

The Residences will also have on-site amenities available, including a private pet-friendly "Green Spine" with exercise and relaxation zones, a BBQ pavilion, a dog wash bay, and a lounge equipped with a large boardroom-style table and kitchenette, ideal for remote work or social gatherings.

Wahroonga welcomes rare new apartment development as The Residences approaches launch

Plans for Capital Corporation’s apartment project on the site of the Seventh-day Adventist Church site, Wahroonga Estate, have been given the green light by Ku-ring-gai Council.&nbsp;

Lodged on behalf of the Adventist Church, the plans were approved for&nbsp;136 - 144 Fox Valley Road, following extensive planning, community engagement and modification.

<img alt="Render of the proposed apartment building at Wahroonga Estate " data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="17db0d75-bdc8-447c-95df-ed7e26045dc0" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Wahroonga%20Estate_View_03.jpg?VersionId=f1_7KBhs9OC_c0d_cyN3gwbC7c9UAL05" />Render of the proposed apartment buildings at Wahroonga Estate.&nbsp;

Set to form an integral part of the regeneration of the 64.2-hectare site on Sydney’s North Shore, 177 apartments will be delivered across four low-rise buildings.&nbsp;

Designed by architectural consultancy firm, GroupGSA, the energy-efficient buildings aim to be visually interesting, contemporary and sympathetic to the surrounding area, with the building’s interiors also benefiting from designs by Coco Republic.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
Ranging from four to six-storeys, the buildings will be constructed across two stages, with 143 apartments set for the first stage and an additional 34 in the second.&nbsp;

26 one-bedroom, 95 two-bedroom and 56 three-bedroom apartments will be delivered across the project, with a new two lane access road set to be built as well, providing an entry point to a shared basement.

The apartments will be located within the approved concept plan’s building envelope, just off Fox Valley Rd, with the DA approval coming 12 years after the State Government approved a Part 3A plan for the site, which included the expansion of the Sydney Adventist Hospital and a range of residential, commercial and higher education developments.&nbsp;

The entire Wahroonga Estate is divided into five neighbourhoods and includes 31.4 hectares of environmental conservation land.

Jim Hunter, Director of Capital Corporation, said the planning process was inclusive of the Council and community feedback to ensure the needs of the local area were met.&nbsp;

“The project has been years in the making. We carefully considered feedback from the community and made many amendments in response,” Hunter said.&nbsp;

“The collaborative approach we took with Council and the community ensured we are delivering a plan that meets the needs of the local community and this was evident in the amount of feedback received.”&nbsp;

A review of initial plans resulted in the reconfiguration of the residential development’s footprint, along with the addition of landscaping and open space.&nbsp;

&nbsp;“We are thrilled with the result and we are excited to bring this project to market in early 2023,” Hunter added.&nbsp;

The proceeds from the development will also unlock funding for reinvestment into facilities, new educational hubs and other community assets within the Wahroonga Estate precinct.&nbsp;

Established in 1991, the Australia-owned Capital Corporation established themselves amongst the Sydney development scene as one of the pioneers of the Norwest Business Park, completing 47 buildings within the precinct.&nbsp;

The group has also recently completed a string of developments including the Esplanade in Norwest, Parklands Estate in Rouse Hill, Veridian in Kogarah, along with Stages One, Two and Three at the $1 billion Woolooware Bay Town Centre in the Sutherland Shire.&nbsp;

The entire Wahroonga Estate is divided into five neighbourhoods and includes 31.4 hectares of environmental conservation land.

Capital Corp given green light for Wahroonga Estate apartments 

The long-awaited rejuvenation of the Club Bondi Junction RSL is officially underway following a formal ground-breaking, signalling the start of construction on the back of a successful project sell out.

The 80-apartment development by Australian development business, Capital Corporation, was launched in October 2020, selling 30 per cent of apartments in the first week on the market, with the final apartment sold just prior to the start of the construction phase.&nbsp;

The apartments have been designed by Group GSA, while the interiors are by renowned architects, Koichi Takada.

With a focus on form and function, each home has been designed to celebrate both the city and the sea, with each apartment following an open-plan design, adjoining onto spacious balconies offering views across Bondi and Botany Bay.

Capital Corporation Director, Jim Hunter said the strong sales in 2021 triggered the early construction start, with the flow of buyers following on from there.

&ldquo;Our last sale recently finalised, and the construction program has officially begun, signifying to the community that the project is full steam ahead,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;This is such an exciting project that provides both a longstanding future for the Club, modern living facilities and terrific benefits for the community,&rdquo; Hunter added.

Bond is set to revitalise the precinct streets into a buzzing community hub, with the reinvention and modernisation of Club Bondi Junction RSL also planned, which will sit beneath the apartments.

Part of the area&rsquo;s regeneration includes opening the street frontage on the corner of Gray Street and Bronte Road into a welcoming and dynamic location, with an array of cafes and dining options.

Capital Corporation worked closely with Group GSA, to renew and restore aspects of the Club&rsquo;s heritage, while also creating a contemporary facade.

Bondi Junction RSL Club President, Bill Harrigan said they&rsquo;re looking forward to the transformation, attracting all members of the community.

&ldquo;I am excited about the creation of a different type of club, one that attracts not only veterans and their families but all of the community.&rdquo;

With the inclusion of the function spaces and the new restaurant, we expect the club to be a central spot for social connection,&rdquo;&nbsp;Harrigan said. &nbsp;

The 10-level residential project will be crowned by a landscaped rooftop area, created by Urbis, complete with an outdoor cinema, barbecue areas and a yoga lawn.&nbsp;

National Director at Colliers Residential, Blake Schulze, said the project had attracted buyers from the Eastern Suburbs, many of whom purchased multiple apartments, with one as their main residence and the second as either an investment or for another family member or adult child.

&ldquo;We experienced significant demand for Bond from local families and returning Australian expats,&rdquo; he said.

&ldquo;This demand resulted in strong sales, even during our most significant lockdown period of 2021.&rdquo;

After partnering on two successful projects, Veridian in Kogarah and Esplanade in Norwest, Capital Corporation appointed Westbourne Constructions as the builder in December 2021 with construction now officially underway.
