The place to be and to call home
Our project at 4 Ballarat Street is a stones throw from Brunswick's Sydney Road. Connection to place is important for us — we retained the heritage-listed facade of the warehouse originally designed in 1955 for Hard Yakka Overalls. The building is designed to connect you to the existing neighbourhood in one of Melbourne’s most culturally vibrant suburbs.
We only have a handful of available apartments at 4 Ballarat Street, ready for move-in soon. Register to experience the project first-hand and learn about the next steps to becoming a resident.
Spaces to breath and make home
The style and function of all interior spaces has been created to last, allowing practicality and sustainability to inform the way you use and enjoy your home. Inspired by the history and character of the building, each apartment tells a story – one that features a warm and welcoming colour palette and no-fuss design details. Every feature from fixtures to finishes, lighting and tiling has been considered – not only for its context within the space but for its benefit to you and the environment.
We’ll send you the floor plans you’re looking for, invite you in to experience our projects firsthand, and let you know when new projects are released.
A sustainable future for all
We’ve built with the long game in mind. 4 Ballarat Street is entirely electric and runs on 100% renewable energy. Inside the building, our open-air walkways bring natural light and air to well-designed apartments. This reduces the need to replace systems and materials throughout the life cycle of the building, and ensures your home continues to remain low cost to run and maintain. Shared spaces across the building connect you to your neighbours — a workshop, bookable rooms and a rooftop for all occasions.

4 Ballarat Street is entirely electric and runs on 100% renewable energy across all heating, cooling, cooking and power and all homes are a minimum 7.5 NatHERS rating – meaning your apartment has a stable temperature no matter the climate and is more cost efficient to run.
Now’s the time for us to give up the gas. We’re proud to say that 4 Ballarat Street is 100% electric. 40kW solar panels on the roof power the building's shared spaces. In 2022 we launched Assemble Connect; our opt-in embedded energy network so you can buy 100% accredited GreenPower® and high-speed internet at lower prices.
Designed to provide a sense of home beyond your four walls, our building offers a range of meaningful experiences whether you’re working, resting, or playing. Downstairs you can make use of the shared workshop for life's messier jobs and borrow items the Lending Library to get your DIY projects finished. A ground-level series of landscaped spaces has been designed to capture the sun, creating pockets of space for moments of reflection – whether you’re alone with your thoughts or spending time with those closest to you.
Look up or look out. The shared rooftop on Level 8 features views of Melbourne’s skyline and provides a space that’s yours to use as and when you like. Perfect for all occasions, the roof is one of the best spots to entertain friends, grow your own food, host your next family barbeque or let your furry friends roam free in the dog run.
We’ve created an onsite bio-composter that uses microbial technology and heat to reduce organic waste volumes caused by everyday food waste. This will turn your food waste into valuable fertiliser, which can be used to enhance the soil throughout the building’s rooftop gardens. This fertiliser can also be gifted to local community gardens, or those friends and family members with a green thumb. There’s even a worm farm onsite to help transform that organic waste into nutritious soil.
Keep your ride safe and easily accessible with our purpose-built bike storage space. With room for more than 183 bikes and access via a dedicated entry point that separates vehicle or pedestrian traffic, there’s more incentive than ever before to trade your four wheels for two. Make use of our EV charge-point or the communal car sharing space, which can be used at any time.
Life in Brunswick
4 Ballarat Street is located on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-Wurrung peoples of the Kulin Nation. The nearby Merri Merri - or Merri Creek meaning ‘very rocky' - sustained the lives of the Wurundjeri peoples for generations as an important food source and gathering place.
Brunswick draws you in with its diverse community of creators, professionals and performers, offering new experiences at every corner. The suburb's unique charm and personality are shaped by its Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences, offbeat shops, live music venues, and the iconic Sydney Road. There’s not much that Brunswick doesn’t offer.
The people behind the project
Construction is underway
We have finished building the structure of 4 Ballarat Street, and are now onto building the interiors of each apartment and the shared spaces.
