Sekisui House has received a DA approval for the first stage of ‘The Orchards’, alongside Castle Hill Country Club and Norwest Business Park.

The first stage, named Imperial will feature 121 apartments over two buildings. It will be followed by six stages of around 1,300 spacious apartments.

Located at 47 Spurway Drive in Baulkham Hills, The Orchards will comprise one, two, three and four-bedroom spacious apartments across seven residential towers.

Toru Abe, Sekisui House Australia CEO and managing director said the flexible design innovation that apartments at The Orchards will feature is in line with Sekisui House’s strong focus on designing homes that can grow with you, no matter what your life stage.

“Our research shows that one of the strongest elements appreciated by apartment owners is convenient location, followed by flexibility and space, including space saving options by way of storage,” he said.

“Apartments at The Orchards not only offer this, but also a plethora of added amenity in the precinct at large, from a café and retail space to an outdoor cinema in addition to the convenience of a train station currently under construction a short stroll away.

“We believe that the spaciousness and adaptability of apartments at The Orchards will ensure they appeal to virtually every kind of buyer, even those working in the Sydney CBD, which is now a real possibility with Norwest Railway Station currently under construction just a five- minute walk away.

"Adding this level of adaptive versatility to apartment living in Sydney is a real point of difference in the marketplace right now and Sekisui House is proud to draw on its decades of experience creating and constructing residences for families around the world, to optimise the offering at our latest development.

"Strong interest has already filtered through from local downsizers considering an apartment move that will not compromise their space requirements but would remove the need for upkeep - both indoors and out - that standalone homes bring, as well as from professional couples and families with children that require space or the option to work from home."

Set on a nature-filled site complete with a creek and cycle/walkways, The Orchards will also feature a 1.4-hectare public park, playgrounds, breakout green spaces, as well as a lagoon pool and a two-storey gymnasium.

Apartments at The Orchards’ first stage, Imperial, start from $690,000 for a one-bedroom apartment, two-bedroom configurations from $810,000, three bedrooms from $1.15 million, through to a large four-bedroom residence spanning 178sqm from $2 million.
