Lendlease unveils new premium waterfront living with Ancora at Collins Wharf

The launch of Ancora follows the success of Lendlease’s neighbouring Regatta at Collins Wharf development, which was launched in mid-2023 and is over 80 per cent sold. Expressions of interest are now being accepted for Ancora at Collins Wharf to meet high demand from buyers seeking the opportunity to experience the best of city and waterfront living.

Designed by architect Warren and Mahoney, Ancora at Collins Wharf is a 28-storey development of 303 residences which offer uninterrupted views of either Victoria Harbour towards the city or the Yarra River across to Port Phillip Bay.

Ancora includes 276 one, two and three-bedroom apartments, known as the Waterfront Collection, with high quality fixtures and fittings, contemporary interiors and efficient floor plans which maximise natural light. 

In addition, an exclusive Premier Collection of 27 residences across a range of townhouses, penthouses, and larger scale apartments will soon become available. 

Ancora residents will enjoy a hotel-style lobby with concierge service, a private dining room to entertain guests, and the lush, landscaped surrounds of two rooftop terraces located at level 4 and level 16 with panoramic views, plus a wintergarden.

Ancora will also connect to the neighbouring Regatta via a podium that allows easy access for residents to a range of facilities that promote wellness including an indoor swimming pool, spa, sauna and steam room, gym and multipurpose rooms.

Designed as an all-electric building with electric vehicle infrastructure, the development will target 5 Star Green Star certification.

As part of the Collins Wharf precinct, Lendlease is delivering new public spaces. Ancora will be surrounded by over 5,000sqm of new parkland including a new green space being delivered in tandem with the residences. Designed by landscape architect, Openwork and inspired by First Nations culture, it will feature Indigenous plants and include workout and fitness stations, covered seating areas, play zones, and open lawns. 

Residents will enjoy being only a short walk from Melbourne’s CBD and the close proximity to Melbourne city’s best hospitality, sports, arts and entertainment while having access to exceptional transport options at the doorstep.

Early works for Regatta are already underway, with construction of Ancora set to commence later this year and anticipated for completion in 2027. 

The Collins Wharf display suite is now open by appointment only by contacting 1300 108 797 or visiting collinswharf.com. Prices start from $660,000.
