Central Equity’s next-generation project Southbank Place recently completed construction in June 2019 and is now welcoming new residents. Urban.com.au was invited to partake in an exclusive tour of the development to see the design realised.

Here are a few stand-out features to note:

A greater focus on the importance of space

Central Equity has focused on creating living spaces which effectively utilise space, including elements such as smart storage, built-in wardrobes, and clever design touches like concealed air-conditioning. These features are available in 1, 2 & 3 bedroom designs up to 125m2, which are genuinely spacious and practical family homes.

Focus on soundproofing

Given Southbank Place's fantastic central location, it’s amazing to note how quiet every room is, regardless of level or positioning. This is thanks to the high-quality double glazing and quality insulation used in each apartment.

"Central Equity has learned over 30-odd years that sound attenuation in an apartment is very important, so we do a lot of working behind the scenes, behind the walls, to be certain that every apartment's liveability and interior is of exceptional quality."

- Jeremy Vile, Central Equity Marketing Manager

Attention to detail

Central Equity Marketing Manager Jeremy Vile explained that the development builds on the company's legacy of spacious, thoughtfully designed apartments. Their team has worked to ensure every detail is considered - from practical storage spaces to acoustically engineered interiors that provide tranquil living in every apartment.

Maximisation of communal space

The Horizon Club on level 41 offers residents the opportunity to entertain friends and family while enjoying spectacular views of Melbourne’s skyline. The generous communal space features full kitchens, dining tables, rooftop deck with BBQs and even a 14-seat luxe cinema.

Level 9 wellness facilities feature a fully-equipped gym, spacious yoga studio and a 22-metre heated pool with multiple pool-side lounges. The resort-style design provides a relaxing space to escape the busy city and unwind in peace.

Impressive city views

The decision to opt for floor-to-ceiling windows means the apartments boast stunning, sunlit layouts which feel warm and inviting. It’s great to see how an investment in quality fixtures, such as larger windows, can dramatically increase the liveability of an apartment. 

World-class service
