<p>While established markets tend to take a breather over winter as agents head overseas, it's a busy time in the off the plan development space.</p>

<p>Developers, media agencies and project marketers start to firm up plans for a spring launch of their developments, giving prospective buyers the biggest hit of supply they'll see all year.</p>

<p>Anecdotal feedback from developers and project marketers is that there's enough demand for new apartments at the moment, based on the lack of supply and as long as the product is being delivered by a team with a strong background in development.&nbsp; Many of those who make this list have been in the development game for decades.</p>

<p>We've wrapped up the top developments that are set to launch before the end of 2024.</p>

<h2><b>Who:&nbsp;Milieu</b></h2>

<h2><b>What: Elsternwick Gardens by Milieu</b></h2>

<h2><b>Where: 8 Gordon Street, Elsternwick</b></h2>

<p>Having secured the 11,740 sqm site of the former ABC Studios on Gordon Street in Elsternwick back in 2022, design-focussed developer Milieu has spent the last two years working alongside <a href="https:/www.urban.com.au/architects/woods-bagot">Woods Bagot</a>, K.P.D.O., Flack Studio, OCULUS, Broached Commissions and March Studio to create a garden-centric community they’re calling <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/elsternwick-gardens-by-milieu-8-gordon-street-elsternwick">Elsternwick Gardens by Milieu</a>.</p>

<p>Elsternwick Gardens by Milieu is a low-rise, campus-style development of six buildings and over half a hectare of green open space.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=136535 project_image_fid=288414]</p>

<p>One of the biggest considerations in the planning phase was how to not only incorporate, but celebrate and take advantage of the neighbouring Rippon Lea Estate, the landmark 19th century mansion surrounded by seven hectares of gardens that are deemed some of the best in the country. The estate is listed on the National Heritage Register as one of the finest examples of original suburban estates in Australia.</p>

<p>Elsternwick Gardens by Milieu residents will have private access to the heritage gardens through a gate that can only be accessed by its occupants.</p>

<p>[smartcode_project:default project_id=136535 project_image_fid=288420]</p>

<p>Milieu Managing Director Michael McCormack said Elsternwick Gardens is a once-in-a-generation opportunity.</p>

<p>“The sheer scale of the project, alongside the historical and cultural importance of the site, renders this our most significant undertaking to date. Close to our hearts and planted firmly front of mind, it’s the project that we believe will define our legacy as a creative developer."</p>

<h2>Who:&nbsp;ANGLE</h2>

<h2>What: Fernhurst, 20 apartments and homes&nbsp;</h2>

<h2>Where: Fernhurst Grove, Studley Park Kew</h2>

<p>Boutique apartment developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/angle">ANGLE</a> is set to launch its Kew apartment development, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/fernhurst-11-15-fernhurst-grove-kew">Fernhurst</a>, in the coming months, having received development approval for the luxury 20-residence project late last year.</p>

<p>The development, on a 4,000 sqm site on the corner of Stawell Street and Fernhurst Grove in Studley Park, will comprise 17 apartments and three homes, ranging in price between $2 million and $7 million.</p>

<p>The site has around 113 metres of frontage to Fernhurst Grove and Stawell Street. Every ground-floor apartment will have an average garden area of over 150 sqm, ANGLE’s most extensively landscaped project to date.</p>

<p><img alt="ANGLE" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="246001fb-e79f-43f7-9a0a-9aff444919ae" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202024-06-27%20at%2012.54.04%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=kF88TNHudK4SzCOzGmC.SYV9LmR58yhB" /></p>

<p>Having successfully developed the award-winning Fenwick project together just over 500 metres away, ANGLE is once again partnering with architecture practice Edition Office and landscape designer Eckersley Garden Architecture to deliver Fernhurst.</p>

<p>Director Lachie Gibson says Fernhurst will follow in the footsteps of ANGLE’s nearby projects, representing another opportunity for the team to demonstrate its industry-leading focus on design, landscaping and architecture.</p>

<p>Jellis Craig Projects Director Stephen Bowtell is handling the sales.</p>

<h2><b>Who:&nbsp;DARE Property Group</b></h2>

<h2><b>What: St David</b></h2>

<h2><b>Where: 33 St David Street, Fitzroy</b></h2>

<p>Sydney-based developer DARE Property Group is breaking into the high-end residential market in Melbourne.</p>

<p>Its debut development will be in Fitzroy where they're soon to launch <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/saint-david-33-st-david-street-fitzroy">St David</a>, just 17 apartments named after its prime position on St David Street, between Smith and Brunswick streets.</p>

<p>Designed by Cera Stribley, St David will have five two-bedroom apartments, nine three-bed apartments, and three penthouses.</p>

<p>Cera Stribley says 33 St David St "demands a structure of architectural distinction."</p>

<h2>Who:&nbsp;Abadeen</h2>

<h2>What: 26 apartments by Carr</h2>

<h2>Where: 616-646 High Street, Prahran</h2>

<p>The Victorian division of Sydney's longtime luxury Lower North Shore development company Abadeen, is continuing its push into Melbourne's owner-occupier market.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/abadeen-group">Abadeen</a>, led locally by former CBRE Director Andrew Leoncelli, is looking to launch its Prahran apartment development, subject to council approval.</p>

<h2>Who: Salvo</h2>

<h2>What: Moray House, 305 apartments</h2>

<h2>Where: 42 Moray Street and 11-13 Hancock Street, Southbank</h2>

<p>Prominent Melbourne fringe developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/salvo">Salvo</a> is set to kick off the demolition phase of its recently-unveiled Southbank tower, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/moray-house-42-moray-street-southbank">Moray House</a>.</p>

<p>Rising 56 levels on a prime corner site across 42 Moray Street and 11-13 Hancock Street, Moray House will comprise 305 apartments. More than 240 of the apartments&nbsp;have already been snapped up by a variety of demographics, from parents purchasing apartments for their children, professionals seeking a city base, families moving back to inner Melbourne post-COVID, and investors.</p>

<p>The $200 million project is primarily made up of two and three-bedroom apartments designed by interior designer David Hicks, as well as two double-level penthouses with never-to-be-built-out views. Moray House also comprises eight levels of office space, hi-tech co-working facilities and two floors of residential amenity with wellness and relaxation at its core.</p>

<p>“The pandemic accelerated a shift in the way people live and awareness of the critical role that internal and external environments play in our physical and mental health and wellbeing," Maitland said.</p>

<p>“Traditional apartment living has evolved to vertical communities and urban placemaking where residents can make new social connections in various communal indoor and outdoor spaces. They also expect resort-style amenities and connectivity with their local environment."</p>

<h2>Who:&nbsp;Second Nature Developments</h2>

<h2>What: 21 sustainable apartments and townhouses</h2>

<h2>Where:&nbsp;197-205 St Georges Road, Fitzroy North</h2>

<p>The building will sit across 197-201 and 203-205 St Georges Road, a 989 sqm block near Edinburgh Gardens.</p>

<p>Austin Maynard Architects are behind the designs for the new project which will have 17 apartments two and three-bedroom apartments and four double-storey townhouses to the western side of the building.</p>

<h2>Where: 387-403 Malvern Road, South Yarra</h2>

<p>Property developer <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developers/wickton">Wickton</a> is continuing to move fast in Melbourne's development space.</p>

<p>Wickton, led by Blanco Norton and architect Will Leaf, will be taking to market their mixed-use development in the Hawksburn Village precinct, on the border of South Yarra and Prahran.</p>

<p>Leaf’s architecture practice <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/architects/ewert-leaf">Ewert Leaf</a> redesigned the plans to create seven two and three-bedroom luxury apartments above a vibrant ground floor retail with premium hospitality and retail spaces that will anchor three levels of strata offices.</p>

<p><img alt="First look exclusive: Wickton look to South Yarra for latest mixed-use development" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screen%20Shot%202024-04-23%20at%2010.49.55%20am.png?VersionId=vAFBrjQB3nIdlo6ep0roVh2Se0zTQl6L" /></p>

<p>The designs were altered from the previous plans so the floorplates expanded, which meant the apartments sat above the building's large privacy screens and the adjoining buildings so both levels of apartments take in uninterrupted views across Melbourne and back to the city skyline.</p>

<p>Wickton is expecting to start demolition of the bottle shop and adjoining commercial building on the site later this year and start the build in early 2025.&nbsp;</p>
