New homes in leafy Wahroonga set a standard for North Shore luxury

A new lifestyle-driven development in the heart of the Upper North Shore is offering low-maintenance luxury for buyers seeking a peaceful place to call home.

The Residences at Wahroonga Estate is an architecturally designed collection of 132 stylish apartments that integrate all the best elements of its leafy Sydney address.

There is nothing off the shelf when it comes to luxe living at The Residences.

Developed by Capital Corporation and designed by award-winning architects GroupGSA, with interiors by Coco Republic, the development is a rare opportunity to purchase in the prestigious neighbourhood.

“The Residences stand out as a truly special project, blending the finest aspects of Upper North Shore living with luxurious amenities,” says Capital Corporation Director, Jim Hunter.

Rightsize at The Residences

The Residences at Wahroonga Estate offer a range of premium apartments and garden residences – including one, two, three and four-bedroom options – in a building nestled among sprawling gardens.

"We're getting a lot of buyers who are local and love the area but want to downsize,” Hunter says.

"They love the offering at Wahroonga Estate for that reason.”

Hunter says there's no question that Upper North Shore buyers are looking for more when it comes to their new homes, which is why including luxury amenities were a strong focus.

Set across from beautiful parklands, The Residences is a nature-inspired haven.

Taking inspiration from the surrounding area, residents will have access to beautiful garden courtyards, and a large private landscaped area with a barbecue pavilion for entertaining guests.

With The Residences’ landscaping merging into the adjacent natural Coups Creek bushland, it offers direct access to sections of Lane Cove National Park.

The Residences is pet-friendly and features a dog wash bay as part of the apartments’ communal area, perfect for after those muddy walks. 

Hunter adds that there's also an opportunity for special upgrades, with buyers able to install their own private infrared sauna within their apartment.

“We've collaborated with a wellness company to offer buyers the opportunity to integrate their own personal wellness room into their new apartment. It's an industry-first initiative that will really improve the quality of apartment living."

North Shore by nature

With tree-lined streets, historic gardens and spacious homes, Wahroonga has long been one of the Upper North Shore's most sought-after suburbs. 

Wahroonga house prices grew by 9.2% in the 12 months to May 2024, according to PropTrack data, rising to a median price of $2,876,500.

PropTrack economist Anne Flaherty says the area offers a "beautiful lifestyle" in convenient proximity to the Sydney CBD, which is an attractive combination.

"You've got access to a lot of really beautiful parks in the area, so you get that feeling of more nature living without necessarily having to be too far away from the thick of things," Flaherty says.

"It also has a lot of amenities, which is obviously appealing, too."

The Residences takes designer living to the next level.

The area is also home to one of Sydney's largest private hospitals, affectionately known as The San, which is a short walk away.

Wahroonga Village – with its train station, cafes, fashion boutiques and homeware shops – is also close by. 

The Residences at Wahroonga Estate is a terrific option for families too, with top schools such as Knox Grammar, Abbotsleigh School for Girls, and St Leo's Catholic College all in the direct neighbourhood.

Meet the creators event

Designed by award-winning architects GroupGSA, The Residences features an elegant modern aesthetic with a curved facade that complements the leafy landscape.

Set in a suburb known for its iconic family homes on larger blocks, the apartment designs are spacious and luxuriously finished – with floor-to-ceiling glazing and many apartments capturing sunlight from the north.

The interiors are also second to none, Hunter says.

Inspired by nature, inside and out.

“Coco Republic has been furnishing luxury homes on the North Shore for the last 20 years, and they have applied their signature design touches to our apartments."

There is a choice of two bespoke colour schemes, Coco Light and Coco Dark, both using soft timbers matched with natural tones. 

Buyers can hear from the Coco Republic and GroupGSA design team about their design inspiration at a Meet the Creators event which will be held on the 23 June.
