Macquarie Park

Plans have been revealed for the first residential development for Iwan Sunito's One Global Capital, away from Crown Group's Mastery by Crown in Sydney's Waterloo.

Sunito, the Crown Chairman and Group CEO, founded One Global Residences last year. It will deliver the first buildings in Crown Group's Mastery by Crown.

But the first project away from Crown Group will be in Macquarie Park, where Sunito's had renowned Japanese architect Koichi Takada (Crown Group's go-to architect), draw up plans for a three-tower project.

No hotel as mooted, the buildings, across&nbsp;7-11 Lachlan Avenue and 157-159 Herring Road, will home just over 300 apartments, as well as an activated street-level.&nbsp;

There will be 35 studio apartments, which take up just over 10 per cent of the building. The majority of apartments will be two-bed (149 apartments, 49 per cent), while there will be 60 one-beds and 60 three-bed dwellings (20 per cent).

The units range in size from 40 sqm studios to 199 sqm split-level, three-bedroom townhouses. There will be a handful of 'Plus' apartments, which will feature a dedicated study space, responding to the rising trend of working from home.

The proposal accommodates 342 parking spaces including 31 visitor spaces, seven car share spaces and 34 accessible spaces. There are 36 bicycle parking spaces and 15 electric vehicle parking spaces.

The Design Report, part of the development submission, said the proposed development&nbsp;is ideally positioned in Macquarie Park, a Northern Sydney suburb set to play a key role as an innovation precinct and economic powerhouse in Sydney’s North District.

"Given the anticipated future investment, development and growth in the area, the local Council is anticipating a significant increase in the residential population who will require more affordable and diverse housing product, the report noted.

"The overall vision for the project is a high-quality residential and commercial development which adds value and density to its site.

"One Global Capital will deliver a quality development of scale that benefits from the available transport infrastructure and the precinct’s proximity to jobs, retail and education opportunities within the Macquarie Park corridor."

The design strategy is focused on creating community, activating the streetscape, delivering high-quality apartments, and maximising residential experience on site, the report noted.

The streetscape design sets out to create a permeable pedestrian network and active retail precinct along Herring Road. Macquarie University railway station is approximately 400m away.

"Residents will enter from busy Herring Road to a generous, central green oasis programmed with amenities that set out to activate a sense of place and community.

"From the apartments above, residents will look down in to an urban forest with a meandering track programmed with intimate and larger spaces to rest, work and play. The courtyard is sheltered from the street by two building blocks which act as an acoustic buffer, creating a pleasant and relaxing environment."

One of the towers will feature a range of amenities, including indoor and outdoor recreation spaces and a swimming pool, set in landscaping and rooftop gardens. There will be play areas for children and barbecue areas.

Sustainable initiatives have been used in the design.

Rooftop solar panels have been designed to generated 100kWh energy, which will be used for common areas and corridors.

Within the apartments will be high performance double glazing, improving solar control, and energy efficient LED lighting. EV charging will also be available.

The application will be referred to the Sydney North Planning Panel under the Environmental Planning &amp; Assessment Act 1979 for determination as the capital investment value exceeds $30 million.

On securing the site late last year, Suntio said, as the&nbsp;first of many acquisitions, the Macquarie Park site is a significant investment which they plan to deliver a "truly extraordinary residential offering to the market, unlike anything else currently available in Sydney."

At the time of the sale, it had been the largest collection sale in Australia in 2022.

No hotel as mooted, the buildings, across 7-11 Lachlan Avenue and 157-159 Herring Road, will home just over 300 apartments, as well as an activated street-level

First look: Koichi Takada designs Iwan Sunito's One Global Residences development in Macquarie Park

Iwan Sunito's development firm One Global Capital has locked in it's next project.

One Global Capital, which will deliver&nbsp;the first residential buildings at Mastery by Crown Group in Sydney's Waterloo, has secured a huge six block, 6,974 sqm site in Macquarie Park.

Plans are being put together for three towers on the site which incorporates&nbsp;7-11 Lachlan Avenue and 157-159 Herring Road, which will have 270 apartments, a 100-room hotel, and specialised retail.

The project provides for a shared concierge and premium community facilities allowing residential purchasers lower cost strata levies along with access to services usually only accessible in hotels such as 24-hour food and beverage services.

Sunito, who is the Founder at One Global Capital, said he was excited to announce the introduction of the new premium, ‘signature selection’ residential and hotel “platform” which aims to set a new benchmark in luxurious larger-sized residences, hotels, retail and facilities.

<img alt="Sunito Macquarie Park" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="fc88d5a4-2ecc-4745-b151-356d070a5825" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202022-11-30%20at%2011.45.16%20am.png?VersionId=Fem6cHKZ9fbSgEjqkd52uBkpVuSLrZbs" />

“The platform has been specifically established to work with funds and financial institutions in stand-alone joint ventures,” Sunito said.

“As the first of many acquisitions, the Macquarie Park site is a significant investment which we plan to deliver a truly extraordinary residential offering to the market, unlike anything else currently available in Sydney.

“The Macquarie Park site is ideally located for residential apartments as it is within easy walking distance to Macquarie University, the recently expanded Macquarie Centre and Macquarie Park Metro Station.”

Savills Director Stuart Cox who handled the sale, said it is largest collective sale in Australia so far this year, with all six adjoining blocks having to settle on the same day.

“This was a very unique offering for Macquarie Park providing future residents within this development the opportunity to live within 300 metres of Macquarie University, Macquarie Centre, Macquarie Railway Station and the Macquarie Bus Interchange,” Cox said.

“Also significant is the site’s 77 existing apartments which will remain tenanted until a DA is achieved later this year.”

It is envisaged the project will be brought to market in 2023.

The new company is a separate venture from Sunito’s other property development company, Crown Group of which he is Chairman and Group CEO.

Crown Group recently scrapped it's plans to break into the Melbourne market, but are still set to push ahead with their first project in Brisbane.

Plans are being put together for three towers on the site will comprise 270 apartments, a 100-room hotel, and specialised retail.



Iwan Sunito's One Global Capital set for three-tower Macquarie Park development

Apartments in the aptly named Treehouse at Midtown MacPark will soon be launched to market, offering new residents a distinctive leafy lifestyle in one of Sydney&rsquo;s most vibrant and sustainable new communities.

Frasers Property Australia&rsquo;s master planned Midtown MacPark community has already become the new heart of Macquarie Park, and Treehouse will be the jewel in its crown.

Designed by Sydney architecture firm Studio Johnston, Treehouse exemplifies community connections and interactions, with an abundance of communal spaces located throughout the building, including the activated sky garden rooftop, complete with its own indoor kitchen, barbecue facilities, and outdoor cinema area.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=199801]

The most unique feature at Treehouse is its custom-designed Treehouse Rooms.

These communal spaces span three levels, each with their own landscaped gardens, with spaces to relax and take in the expansive views from its position overlooking the central Village Green.

Each Treehouse Room caters to the varying needs of residents, providing alternative modern day &lsquo;backyards&rsquo; in which to work, socialise, and relax.

There are spaces for children to play, incorporating waterplay, rock climbing and grassy pockets, areas with dedicated seating and tables, as well as entertaining spaces.

Cameron Jackson, General Manager Development NSW, Frasers Property Australia says Treehouse offers buyers flexible living options and connection to nature while enjoying all the connectivity and amenities Midtown MacPark has to offer.

&ldquo;Residents of Treehouse will quite literally be living among the trees thanks to the exclusively designed Treehouse Rooms, which are unmatched by any other residential community in greater Sydney, or indeed, further afield,&rdquo; Jackson says.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=198758]

&ldquo;They are just some of the many varied communal spaces residents can spend time with family and friends as well as their new neighbours, including the incredible rooftop space, Village Green and surrounding parks.&rdquo;

Commenting on the unique design features of Treehouse, Studio Johnston Director, Conrad Johnston says residents will enjoy a lifestyle experience not available anywhere else.

&ldquo;Treehouse is a very different style of apartment building that delivers an exciting, new approach to apartment living. The outdoor Treehouse rooms in particular are a really strong innovation and I think they will generate a strong sense of community,&rdquo; Johnston says.

&ldquo;We see Treehouse as the best of both worlds &ndash;the best of apartment living and also the best of living in a home.&rdquo;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=199802]

Treehouse will offer 162 apartments, with a mixture of studios and one-bedroom apartments ideal for young professionals, first home buyers and investors, as well as two-and three-bedroom apartments to suit the family market.

Each residence includes contemporary colour schemes and luxurious fittings and fixtures, including natural timber kitchens and Forest Oak bathrooms.

Residents will live directly above Midtown&rsquo;s hive of ground floor shops and cafes, while being within walking distance of the proposed new school, the Macquarie Park and North Ryde commercial hubs, along with the Macquarie Centre, Macquarie University, and the North West Metro.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=159036]

&ldquo;Midtown MacPark has been designed for 100 per cent walkability, allowing residents to move about their tree-lined community without the need for a vehicle at all, and Treehouse will take pride of place at the very heart of this community,&rdquo; says Jackson.

Treehouse residents will also have access to Midtown MacPark&rsquo;s car sharing schemes, while a similar number of bicycle spaces will allow residents the freedom to move about by bike and take full advantage of the nearby Shrimptons Creek Cycleway.

The vibrant new community also includes a children&rsquo;s playground, open spaces, pay-as-you-go pool and gym, as well as a community garden.

Frasers Property is targeting a 6 Star Green Star Communities rating for Midtown MacPark and the vision is for the community to be carbon neutral in operation.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Frasers Property has seen a wave of investors interested in Midtown, their&nbsp;urban renewal project&nbsp;on Sydney&rsquo;s North Shore.

Frasers note the main reason has been the projects&nbsp;proximity and connectedness to the greater community and surrounding Sydney suburbs.

There were nearly 20,000 expats who returned to Australia in March, data from the ABS showed.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=159035]

A rebound in international students is also expected to follow and with research from Urbis suggesting the already tight rental markets may only tighten further. Savvy investors are recognising this build-up in demand for well-located rentals within walking distance of major employment and education hubs.

Midtown, in the heart of Macquarie Park,&nbsp;

Fraser&rsquo;s General Manager Development NSW, Cameron Jackson said Midtown&#39;s walkability was a key element of the project.

&ldquo;Midtown MacPark is designed for 100 per cent walkability,&quot; Jackson said.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=198758]

&quot;Future residents will be living in one of Sydney&rsquo;s most connected communities where car ownership is not a necessity &ndash; a lifestyle which many expats and international students are already well-accustomed to and actively seek to emulate when they move to our shores.

&ldquo;The Metro station and Macquarie Centre are both just 500 metres away, and other shops, schools, a hospital, and childcare centres are all nearby. There are also extensive public transport options, including rail and bus connections. With the new Metro line, which is expected to be completed in 2024, travelling to the Sydney CBD will take less than 20 minutes.&rdquo;

&ldquo;And with the return of international students, demand for smaller units without a car space will further grow, as the world-class Macquarie University is only a 600-metre walk away. That makes Midtown MacPark particularly attractive to the university&rsquo;s more than 44,000 enrolled students and 3,000 staff

[smartcode_project:default project_id=29969 project_image_fid=159035]

There will be a car sharing scheme planned for the community, where designated car share spaces will be provided in each stage and at least 50 shared vehicles serving the community.

Jackson also said that the connectivity of Midtown and Macquarie Park as a whole is only set to grow further.

&ldquo;Macquarie Park is often referred to as &lsquo;Australia&rsquo;s Silicon Valley&rsquo;, given its status as a major technology, education and healthcare hub, and is already the largest non-CBD office market in Australia,&rdquo; he says.

&ldquo;Yet this lively precinct has still to reach its full potential, with the NSW Government&rsquo;s Draft Macquarie Park Place Strategy identifying scope for up to 20,000 additional jobs to be located in the precinct over the next two decades.

&ldquo;This significant forecast employment growth complements the already strong investment fundamentals for well-connected homes in Macquarie Park, and Midtown MacPark is the only community supported by a true mixed-use masterplan in this high-growth area.&rdquo;

Investors pour into Frasers Midtown, Macquarie Park masterplan as borders re-open

Neue, the Macquarie Park apartment development by COLI Australia, is to set a new benchmark for apartment living in the northern Sydney suburb.

Set across two towers, the development boasts 285 residences in one, two, three and four-bedroom configurations.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175522]

Every aspect of these apartments is the result of a refined creative process, inspired by native Australian flora to provide a crafted retreat that residents will enjoy coming home to.

Urban takes a look at five things we love about Macquarie Park&rsquo;s newest apartment towers.

1. Reputable developer

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175524]

Delivered by COLI, residents at Neue can feel confident at having a home developed by a property development arm of the world&rsquo;s largest construction company.

Established in 1979, COLI has proven their successful ability to deliver high quality, innovative and progressive developments all around the world, including Macquarie Park&rsquo;s tallest residential tower.

One in 15 people living in Hong Kong reside in a home built by COLI, according to the project marketing.

2. Strong location

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175540]

&ldquo;When we saw this location, we knew it had so much to offer. As a former site for Macquarie University, it was recognised as a gateway to this neighbourhood&rdquo;, the project developers said.

Standing tall at the entrance to the thriving Macquarie Park neighbourhood, Neue has an inviting feel thanks to its open corner position but delivers the perks of privacy thanks to leafy native trees that screen the property.

The home is located next to Macquarie University, ranked among the top two per cent of tertiary institutions in the world, and Macquarie University Station, one of Sydney&rsquo;s largest transport intersections.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175526]

Investors will feel confident knowing their property is placed in a new emerging CBD and the strategic centre of Sydney&rsquo;s growth plan, as well as NSW&rsquo;s second-largest shopping centre, Macquarie Park.

3. Distinctive fa&ccedil;ade

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175521]

The native Banksia is found throughout the grounds at Neue, but they can also be seen in the unique character of the two buildings&rsquo; architectural form.

&ldquo;The two buildings rise out of the ground, like the spikes of a Banksia flower. The breezeways act as the stem, with each apartment a distinctive floret. As you move your eyes upwards the colour shifts and blends, just as a flower in bloom&rdquo;, the project marketing illustrates.

Designed by SJB Architects, the pure concrete and glass anatomy display subtle tones of green and gold with every architectural detail carefully considered.

4. Green surrounds

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175537]

Rising above native gum trees, Neue stands tall at the gateway to Macquarie Park.

Beautifully landscaped, the project boasts green borders and an expansive central green area, curated to provide ample space to breathe, walk, and relax beneath the shade of verdant greenery.

COLI has delivered areas to enhance social interaction and a sense of community, with barbeques, play areas and quiet spaces to enjoy amongst friends, family or new neighbours.

Most apartments also offer unique, 180 &ndash; 270&deg; views across Sydney&rsquo;s skyline to the native treetops of Lane Cove National Park.

5. Considered interiors

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175525]

Every aspect of Neue aims to connect residents with the outside world, from the spacious lobby framed in natural stone and timber, to the material finishes within your own home.

Kitchens have&nbsp;been designed with stone island benchtops, integrated appliances, and smart pantry storage.

Refined finishes allow in natural light, while handmade joinery serves to deliver a simple and noble interior concept.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7149 project_image_fid=175536]

Inspired by handmade artisanal techniques, colours have been perfectly balanced to reflect a sense of restrained elegance and continuity as you walk through each apartment.

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=7149]

Set across two towers, the development boasts 285 residences in one, two, three and four-bedroom configurations

Prime is the newest development in the heart of Macquarie Park from Sydney-based property developer, JQZ.

The striking collection of four tower buildings rises to a maximum height of 23 storeys and comprises 680 apartments in one, two, three and four-bedroom configurations.

A precinct in itself, Prime draws strength from a charismatic relationship between its built form and multi-layered public and private spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7619 project_image_fid=154085]

Designed by PTW Architects, Prime will&nbsp;deliver&nbsp;a new living quarter that the developer says will &ldquo;shape a new focal point for this rising cosmopolitan hub&rdquo;.

Each apartment offers grand outlooks that act as a backdrop to the diverse selection of residences available to homebuyers, as well as with private rooftop gardens and sunrooms.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7619 project_image_fid=154086]

The towers are elevated above the urban hub,&nbsp;with upper-level apartments enjoying views of the Sydney and Chatswood CBD skylines, as well as the expansive green of nearby national parkland.

Residences feature quality fixtures and fittings, including Ceasarstone island benches and Miele appliances.

Open plan living spaces are lit with abundant natural light through to floor-to-ceiling windows. A number of apartments have access to secure parking.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7619 project_image_fid=154091]

The resort-style precinct includes outdoor barbecue grills, alfresco dining spaces under sheltered arbours, an immersive indoor-outdoor pool and podium gardens.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7619 project_image_fid=154090]

Residents who need an escape from the bustling metropolitan pace outside your home will enjoy the project&rsquo;s meditative space, which includes viewing platforms and soft planting as a sanctuary from the city.

&ldquo;Prime architecture in a prime location, this remarkable new resort-style neighbourhood precinct is set to light up the heart of Macquarie Park&rsquo;s vibrant town centre&rdquo;, the project marketing reads.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=7619 project_image_fid=154092]

Prime will likely attract the student rental market, given its walking&nbsp;distance proximity to&nbsp;Macquarie University and its many libraries, as well as the new Metro station that links to Chatswood.

Prime sits adjacent to a shopping centre featuring over 400 stores and an entertainment precinct.

[smartcode_project_cta: project_id=7619]

Prime delivers a new living quarter that the developer says will “shape a new focal point for this rising cosmopolitan hub”.

It is no secret that Macquarie Park has been a favourite amongst Australia’s leading property developers and investors with AMP, Goodman, Stockland and the like all taking a substantial stake in the precinct.
Since the early days in the mid 1960’s when the bushland suburb of North Ryde was rezoned for employment land, developers and prospective investors have found solace in the safe havens of Macquarie Park which has transformed into the “Silicon Valley of Sydney” with global tech and software giants such as Microsoft, Oracle and Novartis calling it home.
Macquarie University was built in the early 1960’s as Sydney’s much needed third university, construction of residential dwellings then transpired around the fringes and soon after Macquarie Shopping Centre opened for business which proved to be a major draw card for international and domestic businesses. Since then, Macquarie Park has positioned itself as a power house in the commercial market with over 850,000 square meters of office space creating a work force of over 45,000 and with a competitive 7 percent vacancy rate.
Since 2015 when the Herring Road Precinct was rezoned, we have seen a new form of investment with local and international residential developers acquiring all the newly re zoned land with over $1 billion dollars being transacted since 2015. According to the NSW Government there is over $2.7 billion in Development Applications awaiting approval with a substantial amount also in the pipeline.
The newly created strata laws brought into effect on 1 December 2016 has proven to be the catalyst for site amalgamations in the Herring Road precinct.
Savills Residential Site Sales Directors Stuart Cox and Neil Cooke have been instrumental in amalgamating these sites and have recently taken <a href="https://commercialpropertysearch.savills.com.au/bc8f85aa-9be2-e611-80c7-005056813885/Sale/Macquarie-Park/Macquarie-Park" target="_blank">15-19 Cottonwood Crescent</a> to market with an outstanding response from international and local developers in the first couple of days.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2017/06/06/Screen%20Shot%202017-06-07%20at%209.36.43%20AM.png" alt="" width="570" height="359">
This site encapsulates three existing blocks of 15 two bedroom apartments, capable of being redeveloped into a landmark 21 storey 200 unit development under the current development controls.
According to Stuart Cox, “The re-gentrification of Macquarie Park will be home to over 10,000 new dwellings in the next 10 years with residents benefiting from the governments heavy involvement in upgrading public infrastructure through integrated transport connections and improving transport times to and from Sydney and Parramatta CBD’s.”
Strong demand for Macquarie Park has always stemmed from its education and retail backbone that has provided for over 40,000 students and 45,000 employees, new demand stems from the proximity to Sydney and Parramatta CBD’s through the new Metro Sydney Project which will provide trains every four minutes in peak hours.
Macquarie Park is also the second largest employment region in NSW and the fourth largest CBD in Australia with employment figures by BIS Shrapnel quoting a growth of over 40,000 new jobs by 2031. Residential developers have recently been acquiring sites at rates well in excess of $3,500 per square meter of Gross Floor Area for the privilege to own and develop in the extremely hot Herring Road Precinct.
