The Andalusian, a thoroughbred for Balwyn

“Throughout its history The Andalusian, also known as the Pure Spanish Horse, has been prized by nobility and recognised for its prowess as a warhorse.”

Elegant, intelligent, sensitive and strongly built, The Andalusian is noted for it’s athleticism and stamina.

Located in the leafy suburb of Balwyn, construction of The Andalusian Apartments is well under way. With almost four levels established, Andalusian looks set to be a stand out development for 2014/2015. A more accurate name could not have been selected for this impressive display of architectural design. Andalusian is a thoroughbred within the multi-residential market, a future landmark for Melbourne’s suburb of Balwyn. Once complete, Andalusian will stand six levels high, its proud architecturally designed façade to front Whitehorse road.

Project developers, Spec Properties have spared nothing in unit design, making it very clear this is a development for end users. With over 1400 residential customisations available, units offer buyers an unprecedented level of design flexibility. One, two and three bedroom apartments offer market variety. Residential dining and living spaces are available for tenants or buyers in smaller units to enjoy large entertainment spaces when needed. Amenity continues with a landscaped barbecue terrace and reading room.

Andalusian on Andalusian

A landmark location demands a stylish, modern and sophisticated architectural response. An engaging building form and a finely-detailed and textured facade provides visual cues to the high quality, light-filled living spaces that reside within. Articulated in a modern vernacular of carefully selected finishes, low-maintenance and sustainable building materials, The Andalusian is visually appealing and projects an air of quality, sophistication and innovation in architecture and design. A generous secure ground floor lobby connects with a proposed cafe tenancy, activating the front of building and creating a welcome, social connection at the street level. Whilst a luxurious resident’s lounge and a communal courtyard provides further opportunities for residents to socialise with neighbours and friends.”

“Famous for its family friendly lifestyle and leafy green streets, Balwyn is consistently recognised as one of Melbourne’s most desirable suburbs, in a city that is considered to be one of the worlds most livable. Film aficionados will appreciate the absolute convenience of the latest and greatest art-house films screened right across the street. Whilst those that like to entertain will enjoy the variety and freshness of produce sourced from the local market. With local shopping, public transport, parks and gardens, restaurants, cafes and a selection of Melbourne’s most prestigious and successful private and public schools all located within the immediate neighbourhood, there really is no reason to consider living anywhere else.
