Construction underway on new waterfront homes at Collins Wharf

Melbourne, 7 August 2024: Construction at Lendlease’s new waterfront residential development, Regatta, is underway as the next chapter of Victoria Harbour’s Collins Wharf precinct comes to life.

Located uniquely between the Yarra River and the harbour, where Collins Street meets the water, Regatta at Collins Wharf is a 29-storey development designed by architect Warren and Mahoney, featuring a mix of 317 residences that offer sought after views of the water.

Residents at Regatta at Collins Wharf will enjoy a hotel-style lobby with concierge service and access to a range of facilities within the building that promote wellness including an indoor swimming pool, spa, sauna and steam room, gym and multipurpose rooms.

The delivery of Regatta follows the success of the flagship No. 1 Collins Wharf development completed by Lendlease in 2019, and is the second of six proposed residential developments planned for the premium location.

With over 80 per cent of residences at Regatta pre-sold, the precinct has already attracted a high level of interest from buyers seeking the best of city and waterfront living, initiating an early sales release of residences in the third development for the precinct, Ancora.

As part of the Collins Wharf precinct, Lendlease is delivering over 5,000sqm of new public space, including the extension of Australian Walk which forms part of the City of Melbourne’s Greenline project, and new green spaces wrapping the Regatta and Ancora residences. Designed by landscape architect, Openwork and inspired by First Nations culture, it will feature Indigenous plants and landscaped areas zoned for wellbeing activities for residents and visitors.

Upon completion, targeted for 2026, Regatta residents will enjoy a waterfront lifestyle only a short walk from Melbourne’s CBD and the close proximity to the city’s best hospitality, sports, arts and entertainment while having access to exceptional transport options at their doorstep.

Designed as an all-electric building with electric vehicle infrastructure, Regatta at Collins Wharf will target 5 Star Green Star certification.

The Collins Wharf display suite is now open by appointment only by contacting 1300 108 797 or visiting collinswharf.com. Prices start from $650,000.

“The significant demand for the Collins Wharf neighbourhood reflects the appeal of this location with the residences continuing to be welcomed by a diverse range of buyers, from first home buyers to downsizers, all seeking a quality home within this desirable dual-waterfront neighbourhood with easy access to the CBD.

“Commencing construction of Regatta at Collins Wharf reflects our commitment to deliver high quality and sustainable housing in prime Melbourne locations. The precinct’s unique position offers an exciting opportunity for the city centre to expand westwards, connecting Melbourne to the waterfront.”

“Regatta at Collins Wharf will provide hundreds of homes right on the Yarra River, close to the CBD, jobs, trams, Southern Cross Station, Marvel Stadium and services.”

“We’ll continue to pull every lever we can to enable 800,000 homes of all types to be built over the next decade, including in our established suburbs close to jobs, transport and services.”

“Regatta at Collins Wharf is a success story for Docklands – delivering more homes for Melbourne in a prime location.”

“We’re thrilled to partner with Lendlease to deliver another stage of the Greenline Project – the extension of Australian Walk, which will incorporate First Nations storytelling through native plantings and design.” 

“The appetite for quality and considered design is evident, with 80 per cent of Regatta housing pre-sold – proving the Collins Wharf neighbourhood is well on its way to being one of Melbourne's most desirable addresses.”
