Crown Residences at One Barangaroo, Sydney

Do you crave the luxury of fresh flowers waiting for you when you return home from your latest overseas trip? Or the convenience of fresh linens laid ready for you to rest on at the end of a busy day? Perhaps it is a bottle of rare wine, handpicked for your special guests, next time you are entertaining? There is no limit to what can be requested when you choose to live in a Crown Residence at One Barangaroo in Sydney.

Sydney is renowned for its relaxed lifestyle, boutique shops, cafes, and exceptional restaurants but it is the iconic harbour that makes this city shine. There is a certain je ne sais quoi about living in this cosmopolitan city that so many people love and sees so many more return. Sydney is not just about city living though, there are beautiful beaches and country escapes within easy reach and then spots like Barangaroo, an urban oasis nestled by the water.

And the world knows it. Sydney was awarded two accolades last year; it ranked 5th of “Most Liveable Cities” by the Economist Intelligence Unit and 11th on Knight Frank’s “City Wealth Index”, making it a much-desired destination or place to call home.

And now Sydney introduces Crown Residences. However, these are not just any luxury property in Sydney; in fact, a mere glance at its captivating architectural façade, designed by the genius WilkinsonEyre, is only a taste of the lifestyle behind its walls. Step into interiors designed by New York-based Meyer Davis Studios and immediately you are swept off your feet. The beautiful interiors are a melange of contemporary aesthetics with modern finishes, resulting in a sophisticated yet neutral palette for any to make their mark.

The interior design emanates warmth and entertaining is front of mind; focal living spaces destined to bring people together, thanks to design elements such as European oak floors, ripple textured bronze glass, polished stainless steel and stunning veined marble slabs from the best quarries in the world.

If entertaining is your thing, perhaps it is the stunning ‘social’ kitchen that will appeal with its natural stone island countertop and breakfast bar (seating up to six), complete with the highest quality appliances out of the US (Wolf Sub Zero), serving as the showpiece of these comfortably oversized apartments. If cooking is not your thing, fear not, there is a butler’s pantry in all Residences where any outsourced assistance can take place behind closed doors with no one the wiser that you are not in fact the Maggie Beer of dinner parties.

Furthermore, what is striking about the Residences is the views. While almost any luxury development will bill the incomparable views one can enjoy, nothing quite compares to its location on the world’s most enviable harbour city. With minimal walls to obstruct and pure glass façade wrapping the building, all residents will relish in the floor-to-ceiling windows, just under 3m in height, giving multi-aspect views of the Harbour Bridge, iconic Opera House and beyond from the moment they wake up, to breakfast on the open-air balcony or a private moment soaking in a free-standing marble bathtub.

This alluring waterfront property will be a masterpiece that not only embellishes the Sydney skyline, but is instantly recognisable from any vantage point once its doors open in 2021. From ground to apex, the building offers 71 storeys where 82 private residences sit atop 349, 6-star Crown Resorts hotel rooms.

A fortunate few will have a choice of two, three or four-bedroom Residences with a single, 6-bedroom Duplex Penthouse also available. All oversized of course.

And the promise of luxury on this harbour is about to be fulfilled with Crown’s construction already underway and running comfortably ahead of schedule.

With location, views, design and certainty being everything, what is left?

Service of course.

As Australia’s leading hospitality provider, it seems the most natural fit that Crown Resorts would step in to provide its award-winning service. Life at Crown Residences will be about ease and convenience, with modern amenities such as in-residence dining, where meals are prepared by the integrated six-star hotel or, if you feel so inclined, you can venture to one of the in-house, handpicked restaurants situated downstairs.

Crown Sydney VIP Pool

Book your table at your favourite restaurant or bar when friends come over simply by calling your dedicated concierge. Banish all guilt by working out in the state-of-the-art gym that enjoys the same views as your Residence, overlooking the majestic harbour (and not banished to the basement as they so often are) or pamper yourself in the Blainey North-designed spa after a dip in one of the resort’s two infinity’s-edge pools.

The list of first-class amenities one can expect include: 24-hour residents concierge, valet parking, doorman, security, in-home dining and housekeeping with complete access to the resort-style facilities (tennis court, gym, residents pool, spa) and then some you wouldn’t normally expect like grocery stocking, dog walking, sommelier and event planning.

To be a resident of One Barangaroo is to be treated as a permanent VIP of our hotel where the real indulgence is knowing that there is always someone looking out for you. Take comfort in knowing that your everyday needs will be expertly executed here.

“People may have several homes around the world. The joy of Crown Residences is that you can call concierge and when you arrive home, your linens are pressed and your fridge is stocked,” says Erin van Tuil of Knight Frank, Head of Residential Sales for the project.

The starting price of these apartments, AUD$9.5 million may seem small to have such convenience at your fingertips. Enviable positioning, world-class amenities, award-winning service and international styling all drawn from the best the world has to offer. An appreciable investment for those who recognise the value – and perks – of a branded residence like this, which can typically fetch a 25-30 per cent premium and as much as 132 per cent in some Asian cities, according to Knight Frank’s 2019 Branded Residences Report.

“Many of our purchasers are seeing Crown Residences as a convenient lifestyle choice enabling them freedom from managing a large freestanding home and the associated costs. Our purchasers recognise that Crown Residences are truly unique, and they are confident that their investment will appreciate over time as an asset for the whole family to enjoy,” says van Tuil.

“Crown Residences are more than just a city pad; these are homes where your children, grandchildren and friends will gather to enjoy the best of times.”

Sydney’s Crown Residences at One Barangaroo are already attracting the most discerning of buyers who desire more than just a home, they desire a Residence that returns the ultimate luxury – time.
