We’re excited to announce the ground-breaking ceremony for our latest residential development, marking the beginning of a project set to enhance the vibrant streetscape along Pacific Highway, Roseville. With thoughtful design, sustainability, and seamless integration with the local character at its core, this project promises to breathe new life into the area while respecting its unique surroundings.
A Strategic Location in the Heart of Roseville
Situated on the western side of Pacific Highway, this development is ideally located at the northern gateway of a growing commercial strip. Roseville Memorial Park lies directly south of the site, and the design thoughtfully considers the park’s significance and lush vegetation, helping the building connect with the surrounding greenery.
The site also benefits from exceptional accessibility:
The site also benefits from exceptional accessibility:
- 300 meters from Roseville Train Station – Easy access to Sydney’s public transportation network.
- Proximity to Shops, Schools, and Amenities – A walkable lifestyle with everything residents need just minutes away.
- Blending with Local Context – The development will invigorate the surrounding residential neighbourhood while enhancing the area’s character.
A Thoughtful Architectural Approach
The proposed residential flat building has been designed to align with the existing and desired future character of the neighbourhood. It introduces a consistent three-storey, nil-setback street frontage that matches the envisioned streetscape along this section of Pacific Highway.
The building’s façade design draws inspiration from Roseville’s architectural heritage and the natural landscape:
The building’s façade design draws inspiration from Roseville’s architectural heritage and the natural landscape:
- Brick Façades on the First Three Levels – A nod to the inter-war streetscape, ensuring continuity with the existing built environment.
- Vertical and Horizontal Elements – A balanced aesthetic that accentuates the horizontality of the balconies, which feature striking glass balustrades and horizontal shadow lining.
- Timber-Look Metal Soffits – Lower-level balconies are enhanced with warm, timber-like soffits that contrast beautifully against the brick façade, creating visual interest.
- Stepped Northern Façade (Levels 4 to 6) – The upper levels feature an escalonated form, adding architectural distinction when approaching from Pacific Highway. Additional landscaping will further soften the façade and complement the greenery characteristic of the Ku-ring-gai area.
Designed for Livability and Sustainability
The building is more than just visually appealing—it has been carefully designed to enhance residents’ comfort while promoting environmental sustainability.
Key features include:
Key features include:
- Maximised Daylight and Solar Access: 73% of the apartments receive at least two hours of sunlight in mid-winter, exceeding the 70% requirement.
- Cross-Ventilation: Achieved in 65% of the apartments, allowing for improved airflow and reduced reliance on air conditioning.
- Smart Balconies and Overhangs: Recessed balconies and fixed shading elements mitigate heat gain in summer while encouraging passive heating during winter months.
- Landscape Integration: A 6-meter landscaped setback along Larkin Lane extends the park’s greenery, creating a seamless connection between the building and the surrounding natural environment.
Elevating the Neighbourhood
This development’s colour and material palette has been thoughtfully selected to enhance the streetscape and create smooth transitions between indoor and outdoor spaces. The durable, hard-wearing materials, combined with careful attention to detail in texture, structure, and façade design, will ensure the building retains its appeal for years to come.
Looking Ahead
As construction begins, we’re excited to see this project come to life. With its combination of modern aesthetics, environmental performance, and community integration, this development is set to become a landmark that adds long-term value to Roseville and its residents.
We look forward to sharing the progress and milestones along the way.
