Shared Residence

There&#39;s been a push for increased amenity within apartment buildings, as residents seek to have everything in one place.&nbsp;

Developers across Melbourne have taken note, and are building apartment projects with extensive communal facilities so residents can interact with neighbours and invite friends over in a larger space.

The type of amenity varies by development, whether it&#39;s a&nbsp;shared living and dining space, rooftop communal gardens, or luxury lap pools and spas.

In the first part of our Shared Spaces, we&#39;ve taken a look at four apartment developments across Melbourne which have dedicated spaces for residents to unwind.
