We are proud to deliver ARA Leichardt, an exquisite collection of six residential buildings located at 141 Allen Street Leichhardt. Changfa engaged us to refine and modify the approved DA prepared by Candelapas Associates.
Our Sydney Architecture team were engaged to refine the yield, make adjustments to amenities, undertake design development and prepare the tender documentation. This subsequently novated across to the successful tenderer – Decode, to prepare ‘for construction’ documentation and construction attendance.
The development’s positioning within Sydney’s Inner West sought to achieve higher end appointments, fittings and finishes across its 138 apartments. Apartment types ranged from studios to 1, 2, and 3 bedroom homes – complimented by spacious basement carparking for 110 car spaces, plus 13 visitors spaces and loading dock.
Each of the six buildings is situated above a landscaped podium on the ground floor, which includes a basement carpark and loading dock beneath. The ground floor offers a shared BBQ area surrounded by lush landscaping, accompanied by walking paths, seating areas, and various landscape features. The penthouse apartments located on the highest level of each building are equipped with skylights and spacious rooftop terraces adorned with leafy surroundings. Additionally, one of the buildings includes a private rooftop garden with BBQ amenities and breathtaking panoramic views.
ARA is more than just a living space; it is a testament to the art of architecture and the celebration of vibrant, connected living.
Consciously designed with community in mind, the outside areas of ARA are framed by lush greenery that creates a sense of tranquility as you stroll through the walkways. As you are invited inside to the heart of Ara this sense of serenity is continued and reinforced by its elegant interiors.
Inside, the floor to ceiling windows flood the generous spaces with warmth and light, helping set the perfect environment for relaxation or entertainment. The materials palette has been carefully curated to create a home that feels luxurious, inviting, and authentic.
Only 5kms from Sydney’s CBD, Leichhardt ’s unique charm stems from its rich cultural history and stunning heritage architecture.
This development leverages the re-emerging character of Leichhardt and leads the renaissance of the area, marking a return to international style and charm Leichhardt is famous for – generous space to entertain family and friends, and intimately connected to great food and culture.
