Described as “effortless, elegant and enduring”, Sydney developer Legacy Property has received approval to deliver a rare collection of only 25 bespoke penthouse-style residences, designed with local downsizers, rightsizers and owner-occupiers in mind in a quiet leafy pocket of North Sydney.
No. 1 Church Lane will capture panoramic, unobstructed harbour, district and city skyline views from its house-sized apartments. Offering an abundance of natural light through floor-to-ceiling glazing, the development is perched in a charming village setting moments from the historic precinct of St Thomas’s Anglican Church and the community centre, home to the popular Northside Produce Markets held on the first and third Saturday of every month.
Future residents will benefit from being within an easy three-minute walk to Victoria Cross Metro Station and the wider North Sydney CBD.
Expressing the architectural integrity of Nettletontribe, this rare collection embodies quiet sophistication and pared-back refinement.
Nettletontribe’s architectural vision for No. 1 Church Lane
Nettletontribe Director and Architect Bernard Waller describes the design intent:
“As the architect, our vision was to create the calm, sophisticated home, with the generosity of a large residence expressed through refined materials to create an intimate apartment setting.
“The materials are subtle but sophisticated and blend into the background. The importance of everyday living comes to the foreground.
“We treated the building as a sculptural form. We introduced subtle curves to soften the corners of the building, as well as sculpting the podium into the laneway to create the entry.”
Legacy Property and Ray White Projects to launch sales shortly
Registrations of interest have commenced, with Legacy Property officially launching the first release of sales via Ray White Projects.
Ray White Projects Managing Partner Eddie Mansour said:
“No. 1 Church Lane is a very unique offering to the marketplace in North Sydney. The area has evolved significantly over the past few years, and we really see this offering curated for rightsizers, empty-nesters and owner-occupiers who appreciate size, space, views and location.
“The evolution of the Metro line and a new amazing range of restaurants and specialty stores all within moments from your new home has transformed the area. The village and community have very much become a distinct local environment, which is very important.
“The level of thought that has gone into this future building is unrivalled. Legacy has developed what I believe will be North Sydney’s most boutique, rare and refined project.”
Legacy Property appoints Lords as builder for No. 1 Church Lane
