Local Melbourne developer Cornus is taking the environmentally-conscious approach to their build at Cornus Oakleigh.

During the building process, Cornus will recycle their waste material and use low VOC building materials including sustainable timber.

Cornus Oakleigh will have a 6-star energy rating. It will feature a high-level of insulation in the walls and windows, as well as double glazing windows, which will not only act as a soundproof barrier, but will also provide a cost efficient way to minimise the need for heating and cooling. 

Floor to ceiling windows will enhance natural ventilation and natural light, while the landscape design of the site utilises drought resistant planting along with smart sensors throughout the common areas, to minimise the building’s energy use. 

 

Cornus Oakleigh also draws design inspiration from the vibrant atmosphere that characterises Oakleigh.

The apartments will be overlooking Caloola reserve and are only metres away from the Oakleigh Tennis Courts and Scotchmans Creek Reserve.

Located within close proximity to the community's best offerings, residents will enjoy the convenience of being near one of Melbourne's largest public transport hubs, ensuring easy access to the city and beyond. Additionally, the Monash Freeway and Dandenong Highway are just a two-minute drive away, further enhancing connectivity.

Oakleigh's rich cultural heritage, rooted in its multiculturalism, adds to the allure of the area. With Cornus Oakleigh situated in the heart of the suburb, residents will be just moments from Eaton Mall, known as Melbourne's Greek capital, which is home to a diverse shopping and dining experience.

There are still one, two and three-bedroom apartments remaining, with prices for a one-bedder starting from $449,000.

The two-bedroom apartments start from $599,000, while the three-bedders include two car spaces, with prices from $765,000.
