Doubling down on Sydney's Lower North Shore
We're excited to announce our continued expansion on Sydney’s Lower North Shore with the acquisition of our second Neutral Bay site. Secured off-market through direct-to-vendor transactions, this is a reflection of our strong local relationships and our commitment to creating enduring projects in locations with genuine community connection.

Located on quiet, tree-lined street within walking distance of vibrant village centre and transport links, the site at 54–64 Barry Street, Neutral Bay is set to become home to a new premium residential project, featuring a collection of spacious two- and three-bedroom residences, secure parking and thoughtfully designed communal spaces.
The development will also leverage the infill affordable housing bonus under the NSW Government’s Low & Mid-Rise (LMR) housing reforms — representing an opportunity to integrate affordable living options within boutique, design-led developments that contribute to housing diversity and community vibrancy.
“We’re excited to return to Neutral Bay with our most recent acquisition, building on our track record with the recently completed Pienza, which is about to welcome its first residents. Our experience gives us a deep understanding of the local market and the lifestyle drivers that make this North Shore suburb so sought-after. We’ll be drawing on that insight to ensure our new project embodies the essence of its location and integrates seamlessly with its surroundings."
Nathan Chivas, CE Managing Director
The Development Application for Barry Street is expected to be lodged by the end of the year, marking the next chapter in Central Element’s continued evolution on Sydney’s Lower North Shore.
