Castle Residences in Sydney's CBD has the enviable address of being right on the doorstep of Hyde Park, one of the CBD's most sought-after areas.

A collection of 131 Manhattan-style apartments, Castle Residences, is conveniently located both a stone's throw to Hyde Park and the convenience of Town Hall train station. 

It's a light rail, train, or general stroll to some of Sydney's best attractions, including the Harbour Bridge and Opera House up at Circular Quay, the historic areas in The Rocks, the business hub in Martin Place, and the home of the arts, The Art Gallery of NSW.

Hyde Park’s lush green lawns and grand avenues of figs becomes residents’ front garden, while luxury labels such as Gucci, Chanel, Ermenegildo Zegna and Rolex are located in close proximity.

Some of the city's most celebrated restaurants, Bambini Trust, Alpha Restaurant, and Tetsuya, are all nearby.

Adding further to the desirability of the Castle Residences, major changes are on the horizon for Sydney’s CBD, with billions of dollars in infrastructure projects now revitalising the look and experience of the city centre.

The light rail provides well-serviced links from the harbour’s edge of Circular Quay all the way to the Eastern Suburbs. Additional upgrades to key train stations are in the works, as well as new priority city centre bus routes and separated bike lanes.

On the CBD’s western harbour edge, the $6 billion transformation at Barangaroo includes a new ferry hub, linked by Wynyard Walk, taking pedestrians quickly through to Barangaroo’s Headland Park, harbour walks, lifestyle retail, and entertainment precinct.

Comprising one, two, three and four-bedroom apartments, like celebrated apartment houses on London’s Hyde Park or New York’s Central Park, Castle Residences offers an unsurpassed Sydney experience of living.

In a graceful pairing of past and present, historic Porter House is home to a luxury MGallery boutique hotel, with residences soaring above.

Together, this fusion of residential living and hotel services creates a desired lifestyle in a coveted Hyde Park setting.
