Boutique mixed-use development set for Sydney's Alexandria

Alexandria is set for a modern six-storey, mixed-use development on the busy Botany Road.

The $6.9 million project at 650 Botany Road has been submitted to council by the design, construction and development group Orisi, on behalf of private developer Michael Dalah.

There will be two ground level commercial tenancy, and five levels above homing just 20 apartments, just four one-bedroom apartments per floor. Some have living space up to 80 sqm.

The two commercial tenancy spaces will be positioned on either side of the residences at the ground floor.

The project will be finished with a white render, blending with the frameless glass balustrades and white powder-coated metal.

Balconies extend to the eastern and western facades, embellished with landscaping by Conzept Landscape Architects.

Breaking up the form, a staircase extending the six-floors is centrally located, leading foot traffic to the communal and expansive garden space. The staircase will also serve as a buffer, creating an extended level of space and distance between each residence.

Located just 200 metres walking distance north of Gardeners Road, the locality is undergoing quite a transformation, with a shift from the older style warehouse and commercial activities, into a mixed use location with residential components.

The site is well serviced by public transport options with regular bus services towards Central Station via Green Square and further buses towards Mascot, Botany, Redfern Kingsford and Marrickville.
