Sterling in name and nature as new apartments hit Lane Cove
The word sterling has many connotations. It is often used when something is of top quality, prestige, and timelessness.
It is sterling that inspired the newest development in Lane Cove, in Sydney's booming Lower North Shore region.
Located in the quiet northern end of Lane Cove, Sterling features 50 one, two, and three-bedroom apartments, catering for a wide variety of buyers and just six apartments per floor.
Ray White Projects Wider Sydney Managing Director, Mark Bernberg, says everything about the project is intrinsically tied to what sterling is all about.
"Everything has been considered to be of sterling quality," Bernberg says.
"The fixtures and finishes are another level up from what has come before in this quiet pocket of Lane Cove, and every apartment, be it for the first home buyer, rightsizer, or downsizer, has the same sterling design approach."
Each kitchen in Sterling is fitted with Miele ovens and cooktops and Fisher & Paykel dishwashers.
Future residents will have access to a rooftop entertaining area with extensive panoramic views, over the leafy surroundings and back to the Sydney CBD.
The location of Sterling is expected to draw those seeking both nature and convenience. It is ideally located on Merinda Street, which will place residents between Stringybark Creek, Lane Cove's only area of endangered Blue Gum High Forest, and the well-connected Mowbray Road West and Epping Road.
It's only two kilometres from The Canopy, the heart of the Lane Cove community that has a plaza with extensive retail and hospitality venues centred around a village green-like lawn that regularly hosts live music acts.
Sterling is being delivered by builder developer Scion Group, who has a strong reputation of delivering quality across Sydney's North Shore.
As part of its commitment to delivering quality, Scion has taken out the 10-year Latent Defects Insurance offered by Resilience Insurance. The insurance, often known as LDI covers structural defects of the building for up to 10 years post-completion. Sterling is the only development in Lane Cove to have the insurance.
Scion Group is well advanced in construction of Sterling. The building itself is expected to complete later this year, with the internal fitout seeing residents move in some time in Q1 2025.
