The completion of Melrose Park Village has marked a major achievement in the transformation of one of Sydney’s largest urban renewal precincts.
Developed by Sekisui House Australia, the project forms the fourth completed stage of the $5 billion Melrose Park masterplan, which spans Sydney’s north-west and is set to deliver more than 6,000 new residences, a town centre, new schools, and 52,000 square metres of publicly accessible green space.
Delivered in partnership with Parkview Constructions, Melrose Park Village adds 421 apartments across six buildings, ranging from six to 13 storeys, arranged around a central 4,000-square-metre landscaped courtyard.
The project is now 96 per cent sold, with a limited number of premium three-bedroom residences remaining and priced from $1.259 million, each with two car spaces.
The development forms a vital part of Sekisui House’s decade-long plan to transform the region from a former industrial zone into a future-ready neighbourhood.
“Sekisui House Australia is proud to celebrate the completion of Melrose Park Village, which stands as a sustainable and connected community in the heart of Sydney’s north-west,” said Alex Grujovski, Project Director, Apartment & Mixed-Use Developments.
The company, which has been operating in Australia since 2009, has already delivered more than 1,075 apartments across four stages in the precinct since 2020.
Designed by AJC Architects, Melrose Park Village embodies the studio’s “Urban Backyard” concept, centring on an expansive green courtyard that acts as a communal park.
AJC’s Urban Backyard concept entirely shaped the design of Melrose Park Village.
According to Design Lead Michael Heenan, the project centres on a spacious green courtyard that serves as a shared backyard for residents.
He explained that it was designed with the scale and character of a local park — somewhere families can live, play, and grow together — reflecting the essence of the Australian backyard.
The space incorporates nature play areas, a climbing wall, open lawns, and recreational facilities aimed at encouraging community interaction.
From a construction standpoint, the project showcases advancements in sustainable building design. It integrates rooftop solar panels, smart energy metering, rain and groundwater reuse, and advanced air filtration systems.
Buildings employ passive design principles to reduce energy demand, lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
These measures align with New South Wales’ increasing emphasis on greener housing standards under the BASIX 2023 update.
Residents also enjoy amenities designed for urban adaptability, including EV charging stations, co-working hubs, wellness zones, and a resident shuttle bus connecting to nearby transport.
Melrose Park’s strategic location near Meadowbank, West Ryde, and Top Ryde places it within minutes of Sydney’s central business district via train or ferry routes.
Grujovski added: “Since 2020, we have delivered over 1,075 apartments across four stages, each designed to enhance wellbeing, connectivity and convenience through exceptional architecture and resident-focused amenities.”
He later stated that collaboration was key to the project’s outcome.
“The success of Melrose Park Village is a result of strong collaboration between Sekisui House, AJC and Parkview Constructions,” said Grujovski.
“Together, we have achieved a shared vision for a community that sets a new benchmark for sustainable, high-quality urban renewal in Sydney.”
Future stages of Melrose Park will see the creation of Melrose Park High School, due for completion in 2027, and a town centre slated to open in 2026.
When fully realised, the precinct will be home to over 12,000 residents and serve as one of Sydney’s model examples of integrated community and construction design.
