Many residences in Victoria, suitable for first home buyers, investors or downsizers, can be secured at an affordable price

Five Melbourne apartments for first home buyers under $500,000

Melbourne Quarter is one of the most lavish completed&nbsp;developments located in the&nbsp;heart of&nbsp;Melbourne&rsquo;s vibrant CBD.

As we near the end of the First Home Buyer and HomeBuilder Grant,&nbsp;Urban have put together ten reasons why you might like to consider purchasing a&nbsp;home in&nbsp;the Melbourne Quarter development.&nbsp;

<h2>1. Developed by the Lendlease Group</h2>

The project&nbsp;is being developed by Lendlease, a multinational company headquartered in Sydney, with a&nbsp;very strong track record across Australia, Europe, the Americas and Asia.

They have won a number of awards&nbsp;across numerous Sydney and Melbourne projects and remain one of the&nbsp;most sustainable real estate funds in the world.

<h2>2. International design&nbsp;firm Fender Katsilidis have architected&nbsp;the building</h2>

Fender Katsalidis once a Melbourne-centric architectural practice, and now&nbsp;a highly awarded, multi-disciplinary international design firm is responsible for the architecture of this&nbsp;project among many others.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/melbourne-quarter-628-flinders-street-docklands" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/melbourne_quarter_full.jpg" /></a>

They have their stamp on renowned&nbsp;developments such as&nbsp;Australia 108, Flinders Bank, Fulton Lane and High Society just to name a few.

<h2>3. Three whole floors of resort-style amenities. &nbsp;</h2>

The project includes a hotel-style lobby, concierge and exclusive access to Club MQ, which also means access to the three entire floors of resort-style amenities on offer.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=3459]

<h2>4. The Melbourne Quarter precinct</h2>

Melbourne Quarter offers residents more than just the one East Tower currently on offer. It is a sprawling&nbsp;2.5-hectare site dedicated to public open space, surely to be&nbsp;named Melbourne&rsquo;s greenest city precinct, with a mix of both retail and parkland on offer for residents.

<h2>5. $458,000 is below the Melbourne CBD&#39;s median apartment price</h2>

Home buyers can enjoy a one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment in the Melbourne Quarter for as low as $458,000, below the $490,000 median apartment value, calculated by realestate.com.au

<h2>6. Range of luxury residences&nbsp;available</h2>

Currently on offer in the Eastern Tower of the Melbourne Quarter&nbsp;is a collection of spacious one and&nbsp;two-bedroom architecturally designed apartments, with a range of price points from $458,000 all the way to a pricier $1,032,000.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/buildings/melbourne-quarter-628-flinders-street-docklands" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/pictures/article-images/melbourne_quarter_apt.jpg" /></a>

<h2>7. Located in the heart of the Melbourne CBD</h2>

Bordered by the renowned Collins and Flinders Streets, Melbourne Quarter offers residents the convenience of living in Melbourne&rsquo;s vibrant CBD at affordable prices for first home buyers or investors.

<h2>8. Nearby developments of a similar quality are more expensive</h2>

For example another development with top of the line amenities, R. Iconic has&nbsp;prices starting from $507,000, across their range of one, two and three bedroom suites.

Or the similarly lavish&nbsp;The Docklands Residences which&nbsp;sits atop a brand new 8-floor Marriott Hotel and offers a number of luxury amenities.

<h2>9. The Melbourne CBD will always be in demand</h2>

The Melbourne CBD has overall managed despite&nbsp;downturn predictions of the market and may have even seen price values grow if not for&nbsp;on and off state-wide lockdowns. In fact a number of economists are extremely optimistic Melbourne prices which are&nbsp;tipped to climb by 8 per cent this year followed by 10 per cent in 2022.

A number of economists predict the battle between banks for new customers and the successful rollout of the coronavirus vaccine may super-charge even the national property market.

<h2>10. Views from your future home</h2>

Many apartments in the&nbsp;Melbourne Quarter hold sweeping views across both the city and skyline.

10 reasons to buy a brand new home in the Melbourne Quarter

<html><body>
Lendlease has lodged development plans for Melbourne Quarter’s third commercial tower, Two Melbourne Quarter, at 697 Collins Street.
The 25 levels office tower has been designed by architects Woods Bagot and will target a 6 star Green Star rating and a 5 star NABERS energy rating.
When built it will feature 49,000sqm of total office space and around 800sqm of additional retail space.
Mark Menhinnitt, Lendlease’s Managing Director for Urban Regeneration said the precinct has received strong interest to date due to its pivotal location on Collins Street and its close connectivity to Southern Cross Station. 
“As we enter a new age of workplace productivity, tenants want to attract and retain the best and brightest industry talent with offices that deliver a range of workplace and wellbeing amenities including end-of-trip facilities, meeting pods, business lounges and family-friendly childcare services,” he said. 
“Melbourne Quarter’s integrated commercial towers will showcase a leading architectural design set amongst the precinct’s tranquil, technology-enabled outdoor working spaces, with a strong focus on green initiatives, access to the city’s first elevated Skypark and retailers to support a better work life balance.”
When completed, The Melbourne Quarter precinct will offer approximately 130,000sqm of agile and flexible office space for more than 12,000 employees.

Melbourne Quarter lodges plans for final commercial tower

<html><body><div class="page" title="Page 1">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
Lendlease have received planning approval to build its third and final commercial tower at Melbourne Quarter. 
Two Melbourne Quarter, a 25-storey office tower at 697 Collins Street, will feature 49,000sqm of total office space, sufficient to accommodate around 4,500 new workers and 800sqm of retail space on the ground floor. 
Mark Menhinnitt, Lendlease managing director of urban regeneration and infrastructure development, said planning approval for the Woods Bagot-designed tower coincided with a period of strong demand for high-quality office space in Melbourne’s CBD. 
“Lendlease has seen strong leasing activity push the national CBD vacancy rate to its lowest level in four years, and with a predicted shortage of prime grade contiguous office space in the near future, this has helped spur on pre-commitment activity,” he said. 
“This project will cater for the continued growth and strong tenant demand for new office space in Melbourne as both national and global businesses target the new supply of buildings coming to market in the city’s CBD. 
"Two Melbourne Quarter will open out on to a new public plaza on Collins Street, a centerpiece of the Melbourne Quarter precinct, and will also feature a four-storey public staircase connecting to Aurora Lane. 
“Next year will see the completion of the precinct’s first office tower, One Melbourne Quarter, which will be home to our new Lendlease Victorian headquarters in September.” 
In addition to 130,000sqm of agile office space for more than 12,000 employees, more than 50 percent of the Melbourne Quarter precinct will be open space. 
Two Melbourne Quarter will target leading sustainability outcomes in water consumption, waste management and indoor environment quality, including a 6 Star Green Star rating and a 5 star NABERS energy rating. 
Two Melbourne Quarter is one of seven commercial and residential buildings planned for the development. Activity continues to forge ahead on site, with the precinct’s first residential tower East Tower under construction.

Melbourne Quarter’s final commercial tower approved: planning for growing demand

<html><body>
Lendlease’s urban regeneration development Melbourne Quarter has celebrated the topping out of One Melbourne Quarter, with the precinct also receiving the highest available rating for sustainability in Australia.
The building is on track for completion in September this year and will accommodate about 2,500 employees from AMP, Arup and Lendlease.  
The precinct’s 6 Star Green Star – Communities certified rating from the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) is the highest rating available in Australia.
It is based on Melbourne Quarter’s sustainability performance across energy and water efficiencies, design, livability, environmental quality and innovation.   
The topping out ceremony marks the first commercial tower’s structural completion.
Since construction began on One Melbourne Quarter in October 2016, 1,470 jobs have been created. This number is expected to grow to approximately 15,000 jobs for the entire precinct as construction peaks in the coming years.
The building is owned by the Lendlease-managed Australian Prime Property Fund Commercial (APPF Commercial), and has been designed by Melbourne architects Denton Corker Marshall.
Lendlease Managing Director, Urban Regeneration and Infrastructure, Mark Menhinnitt said Melbourne Quarter was one of the largest mixed-use urban regeneration developments in Melbourne and for the city’s growing commercial centre at the west end of Collins Street.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/3/1/view_45_C1_Retail_shops2-5%20Collins%20Street.jpg" alt="">
“The commitment from future tenants AMP, Arup and Lendlease plays an important role in shaping the precinct’s future corporate community and identity.
“Creating places that redefine the way people choose to work, Melbourne Quarter will offer a variety of amenity, including Melbourne’s first elevated Sky Park and a new public square to support a better work life balance and health and wellbeing for workers.”

Melbourne Quarter tops out first office tower

<html><body>
Melbourne Quarter luxury sky homes are continuing to receive steady buyer interest, with buyers purchasing 90% of properties released to the market within the first sales phase.

The impressive sales statistics could indicate an equally strong demand for human-centric design in today’s built environment.

Biophilic design is the creation of living spaces which enhance the quality of wellbeing of the building’s occupants. Wellness is often better facilitated through the integration of nature, having sensitivity to the requirements of residents/workers and an environmentally conscious approach to design.

Developer Lendlease has dedicated more than half of the Melbourne Quarter mixed-use precinct to green open space, with a vast majority available to be enjoyed by the public – including an elevated Sky Park, the first of its kind to be available for public use.

The goal was to blur the lines between built form and nature, which has been masterfully achieved by the talented landscape design team at Aspect Oculus.

Aspect Oculus have thoughtfully curated multiple green spaces, with stand-out features including:

<ul>
<li>Verdant green open spaces for public use</li>
	<li>Integrated nature within each building’s façade using trellis to create vertical planting</li>
	<li>All 40 storeys also feature large planter boxes, allowing residents to plant gardens</li>
</ul>
