Construction has commenced on Windsor Park, one of the newest apartment developments in Melbourne's Windsor.

The 33-apartment development at 61-71 McIlwrick Street is a joint venture between developer Sinclair Brook and investment firm Wilbow Group, who are expecting residents to move into the Jackson Clements Burrows-designed building by mid-2024 after a 12-month build.

The building, which has interiors curated by Hecker Guthrie and sits in gardens by Eckersley Garden Architecture, has never to be built out views of Windsor Park. It sits in an enviable pocket, boasting an international walk score of 95.

Prices start from $1.7 million for the three-bedroom apartments which have two bathrooms and two car spaces.

The aim of Windsor Park was to create a beautiful environment that enriches the urban fabric while evoking a profound sense of home. The development features a series of smaller buildings spread across three levels. Privacy was considered, with canopy landscaping enveloping each residence, connecting them organically to the adjacent parkland. There's a central courtyard which further enhances the park-like atmosphere.

A palette of concrete, warm metals, and neutral brick were used for the exterior of the building, while the interiors combine earth tones, concrete, and soft timber.

Apartments have been designed to offer multiple aspects and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame views of private landscaped gardens, treetops, and the city skyline.

Each apartment features V-ZUG kitchen appliances, Brodware tapware, integrated Leibherr fridge/freezers, double-glazed windows, and premium natural stones and tiles.

Sinclair Brook is offering an extended building warranty at Windsor Park, past the standard warranty which all off the plan developers need to offer.

Windsor Park is the second collaboration between Sinclair Brook, Jackson Clement Burrows and Eckersley Garden Architecture. The trio worked together Compose Hawthorn, a boutique collection of terraces on Glenferrie Road.
