Hawthorn's hidden gem offers extraordinary views and premium amenities for discerning buyers

Hawthorn's hidden gem offers extraordinary views and premium amenities for discerning buyers
 In Melbourne's coveted property market of Hawthorn, a new enclave is being crafted with stunning residences and lush green gardens.

Scotch Hill Gardens, a new neighbourhood taking shape in the rich historical suburb of Hawthorn, is drawing attention from discerning buyers.

Known for its elegant homes, leafy streets, and proximity to Melbourne's top schools and sporting facilities, the area has long been a highly sought-after location.

But this new enclave is perfectly situated and offers buyers something new by blending luxury with classic apartment living.

Scotch Hill Gardens has proven popular with owner-occupiers, with a high level of interest from locals eager to snap up one of the beautiful apartments and enjoy the high-quality amenities. 
 

An irresistible new neighbourhood

Stage 1 of Scotch Hill Gardens comprises a boutique collection of three elegant buildings, offering beautiful homes with a classic Hawthorn aesthetic but with more than existing properties in the area can offer.

According to Fergus Humphries, sales and marketing director at Hamton Property Group, the project has been crafted by the renowned architects Woods Bagot to create "a modern interpretation of those historic features that locals know and love."

"It's something that will appeal to those people wanting a classic Hawthorn or Camberwell home but who want to move away from that large family home format to something luxurious yet manageable."

The apartments promise elegance with functionality, featuring highlights like large entertaining terraces and open-plan interiors. 
 

Something for every discerning taste

Each apartment at Scotch Hill Gardens has been thoughtfully designed to offer both comfort and elegance.

Humphries says buyers are looking for spacious layouts that seamlessly connect to outdoor terraces and points out that these new homes won't disappoint, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing stunning views of gardens or the city.

"The product range variations are quite widespread, so there's an apartment type or layout for everyone.

“We have the 2-bedroom exclusive central garden residences all the way up to the penthouses that really speak to the indoor-outdoor living with the large terraces."

Prices start at $995,000 and range up to $5 million, and Humphries says there's also flexibility when it comes to internal schemes.

"We have two distinct design schemes, the Grand and Classic," he explains.

"The Grand scheme features high-end Gaggenau appliances and is top-end." 
 
Think natural stone finishes and oak or walnut timber finishes.

Meanwhile, the Classic scheme offers high-end Miele appliances and sleek stone surfaces.

Humphries shares that this approach allows every home to be a haven of luxury while matching buyers' needs.

In some residences, additional touches like butler’s pantries, walk-in robes, dedicated laundries, and freestanding baths enhance the living experience.


Uniqueness at its best

What truly sets Scotch Hill Gardens apart are its exceptional lifestyle amenities and its nature-based approach with carefully planned gardens that that prioritise residents' wellbeing.

Humphries says the Bath House - designed by wellness consultant Dwell Concepts - has been beautifully crafted for maximum relaxation.

It includes a sauna, steam room, plunge pool, and a salt room.

There is also a movement studio, co-working rooms, and a stunning hotel lobby-style reception. 

Plus, with the upcoming redevelopment of Bills Street Village, residents will enjoy unmatched convenience, with shops, a café, and community spaces on their doorstep. 
 
The gardens are the other standout feature which surround the buildings, engulfing them in greenery.

"We're delivering over 40% of the site as gardens, so there's this green botanical environment around the whole project," Humphries explains.

"We've kept 77 existing trees on the site's perimeter, so those are mature, and the greenery is already established, something is rare in new developments.

“We've also planting another 155 trees.

“We really wanted the buildings to sit within this natural landscape, and you've got a green outlook for every apartment, whether it's towards the internal central garden or the elevated living tree canopy of mature gums on the perimeter of the site."

Humphries adds that the project is clearly ticking all the boxes, with strong interest already growing, especially now that demolition has begun and construction for Stage 1 is set to start in the third quarter of 2025.
