First look: Northbridge Hotel to make way for new mixed-use development
Popular watering hole the Northbridge Hotel, and the adjoining commercial precinct Northbridge Village, are set to make way for a new mixed-use retail and apartment building.
SJD, who is well known in Sydney's east for developing the luxury apartment project 1788, has filed plans with Willoughby Council for a new $45 million development comprising 24 apartments above street-level retail at 57-69 Strathallen Avenue, just off Sailors Bay Road and not far from Northbridge Plaza.
Bates Smart has designed the five-level building which has a mix of just three and four-bedroom apartments. Two EV charging bays will feature in the two-level basement that will cater for 51 cars for both residential and retail use.
There's been little in the way of off the plan activity in Northbridge in recent years. There had previously been plans for Escarp, across the road at 46 Strathallen Avenue, however they failed to eventuate.
The only recent project to launch locally was with Winim, who in October last year launched Flō, just seven townhomes and five apartments opposite Northbridge Shore Playing Fields and just a few hundred metres down the road from Northbridge Plaza and the popular Warners Park.
