Sekisui’s Latest $550m Stage at Wentworth Point Approved

The next phases of Sekisui House Australia’s Wentworth Point masterplanned community Sanctuary have been given the green light.

The Sydney Central City Planning panel approved three phases, Summit & Ridge, Cascade and Pinnacle, which have a total capital investment value of $550 million.

Sekisui House initially launched plans for the 2300-apartment riverfront development at 14-16 Hill Road in 2021. 

Sekisui’s $225-million Summit & Ridge towers will comprise 537 apartments across two buildings, 40 storeys and a 32 storeys, on a 6560sq m site.

In approving the phase, the panel said it was “responsive to the wider Sydney context which is characterised by a range of ‘villages’ with different characters”. 

Summit & Ridge will have 187 one, 333 two, 16 three-bedroom apartments plus a single four-bedroom apartment, as well as 642 car parking spaces.

Plans for the $165-million Cascade include a three-level sleeved podium, a 40-storey tower and a nine-storey block with a total of 393 apartments comprising 78 one, 271 two and 15 three-bedroom apartments.

The other phase approved, the $160-million Pinnacle, will consist of 334 apartments across a 40-storey and an 11-storey block.

Turner Studio designed the Sanctuary masterplan and director James McCarthy said it represented the next stage of the Wentworth Point urban renewal program.

“Sanctuary looks to a new urbanism,” he said. “It seeks to go beyond business as usual and has deliberately not extended the ‘gridside’ pattern of east Wentworth Point, and instead embraces a new ‘parkside’ urban model.

“The new parks will form a series of green fingers that connect the adjacent regional parklands to the water’s edge. This composition of buildings, set within nature, invites the adjoining precinct to celebrate the riverside location.​

“This new urbanism is deeply rooted in sustainability. Sanctuary allows for future public transport links and provides much needed open space and riverside parks that will greatly enhance the suburb as a whole.”

Major projects under way in the Parramatta suburb, formerly an industrial area, include a City Freehold Projects development, as well as Billbergia’s award-winning masterplan and Piety Group’s Amalfi Drive site.
