A five-storey residential building has been proposed for 290 Unley Rd in Hyde Park, offering 10 high-end apartments, including a spacious penthouse with views of the CBD and inner-south suburbs.
The project, planned by Samaras Group, is set to replace the bike shop, chiropractor and shoe store currently on the site.
The building will feature one, two and three-bedroom units ranging from 73 to 141sqm, with expansive private balconies exceeding minimum requirements.
The top-level penthouse, spanning 213sqm, will include three bedrooms, a wine cellar, media room and three balconies. The ground floor will house a cafe and undercover carpark, with 15 carparks and bicycle storage.
As part of the development, three trees in the current rear carpark would be removed, as they are deemed to have no “important” contribution to the site.
The project will also include alternative greening methods like green walls due to limited space for landscaping in the compact, urban location.
This proposal is the second apartment project on Unley Rd in just weeks, following plans for a seven-storey, 15-unit building closer to the CBD.
The public has until January 17 to submit feedback on the new development.
