Tucked behind bustling Falcon Street and the Pacific Highway, an assortment of international eateries, vibrant cafes and cosy small bars define a neighbourhood that, despite its soaring popularity, has held onto its village feel.

The ease and convenience of Crows Nest on Sydney’s Lower North Shore are not only measured by its winning location but by its access to top-tier schools, lush parks and connectivity to major hubs – a mere five minutes from North Sydney or a 10-minute drive from Chatswood. With the addition of the newly opened Crows Nest Metro station, locals are in the heart of Sydney city within seven minutes or Chatswood in four.

Crows Nest village, in all its vibrancy and convenience, has been attracting attention, especially with the ongoing transformation of Hume Place by Third.i into an energised precinct that will include green areas, restaurants and co-working spaces. At the forefront is Elevate Hume Place, an exciting new development designed by Woods Bagot that’s poised to redefine urban living on the Lower North Shore.

“The vision for Elevate Hume Place is to create a community-focused, sustainable residential development,” explains Luke Berry, the director of Third.i Group. “Positioned above the newly opened Crows Nest Metro station, the project fosters a sense of community through shared spaces and high-quality amenities.” 

Embodying the essence of contemporary living, Elevate offers a total of 130 dwellings, including an impressive collection of one, two and three-bedroom apartments featuring expansive windows that invite natural light, high-end appliances, and elegant marble surfaces complemented by timber parquet flooring.

Residents will also have access to a range of communal amenities, including a rooftop pool, spa, gym, barbecue areas, and concierge services – all designed to enhance the community feel that is synonymous with Crows Nest.

 “This is more than just a residential development; it’s a legacy project for us at Third.i. We’re creating a vibrant, connected community that reflects the evolving lifestyle of Crows Nest while offering long-term value and exceptional design,” says Anna Limnios, development manager at Third.i Group.

What truly sets Elevate apart are its Skyhomes. These expansive multi-level residences capture the essence of the glistening harbour city.

“What excites me about Elevate is the way we’ve been able to design a residential building that supports sustainability and social interaction, contributes to a new community and builds on its location to create exceptional homes,” says principal architect at Woods Bagot, Jason Fraser. 

Each Skyhome blends sophisticated design with convenience. They feature house-like proportions spanning up to three levels, leading to a rooftop terrace complete with a pool and outdoor kitchen, allowing for a lifestyle that seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living.

“The project appeals to a broad range of buyers, including first-time owners, investors, downsizers, and rightsizers seeking a connected and vibrant lifestyle in Crows Nest,” says Berry. 

In this way, Elevate represents more than just a home; it embodies a lifestyle choice. Berry elaborates, “Elevate combines beautiful apartment living with the Metro system in a way that makes you more connected than ever to the local surrounds and the broader city.” 

Blending vibrant community life, modern amenities, and exceptional design, Elevate invites residents to become part of a thriving and interconnected neighbourhood. And as this dynamic area continues to evolve, it promises to offer a lifestyle that celebrates both convenience and community.
