Melbourne's Bayside has long been one of the most attractive places to live in the Victoria capital.

It gained significant attention and growth as a knock on effect in the mid to late 20th century as Melbourne expanded and urbanized. The unrepeatable coastal suburbs, a premium in Melbourne compared to other capital cities across the country, meant it had a unique selling point which would never go away.

As transport to Bayside from the city improved, the property market grew and grew. Then came further investment within the suburbs themselves. Brighton's Church Street is now one of the most popular retail strips in Melbourne, and prices surrounding the street reflect that.

Some of Melbourne's best schools are also in Bayside, such as Melbourne Grammar School and St Leonard's College, while the Victoria Golf Club, one of the oldest and most prestigious golf courses in Australia, is located in Cheltenham.

There's only nine suburbs which make up the exclusive local government area on Port Phillip Bay. It's anchored by the main suburbs of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/brighton-vic">Brighton</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/hampton-vic">Hampton</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/sandringham-vic">Sandringham</a>&nbsp;which run along the coast to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/beaumaris-vic">Beaumaris</a>&nbsp;through&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/black-rock-vic">Black Rock</a>, while&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/cheltenham-vic">Cheltenham</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/highett-vic">Highett</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/hampton-east-vic" target="">Hampton East</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-developments/brighton-east-vic">Brighton East</a>&nbsp;sit one suburb from the water.&nbsp;

Bayside Melbourne's best off the plan townhouse developments on the market in 2024

Developer Freeman Group is set to introduce a boutique collection of inner-city apartments in the heart of Melbourne’s lifestyle and sporting precinct.

The Lara Architect-designed <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> will comprise just 12 apartments across a contemporary seven-level building in <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/richmond-vic">Richmond</a>, above the Bridge Road streetscape near where the Yarra River splits <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/richmond-vic">Richmond</a> and Hawthorn.

The introduction of warm timber finishes on the canopied ground level softens what is instead a raw, red-brick-heavy facade—a nod to Richmond's industrial history and surrounding brick warehouses and buildings.

<img alt="Bridge + Palmer" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="569790f7-951e-4d13-9659-fe67d4cb9fe0" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-20%20at%201.51.22%20pm.png?VersionId=UcNDvvldbCb1IY.HOlu1lN8Zkr6jQFnO" />

Architecture firm LARA Architects says the character of Richmond is "diverse but groovy, chaotic and unexpected."

"That is the motto of our design," the Carlos Lara-ran practice noted.

"Embracing the diversity and character of its location, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> is a welcome addition to the eastern end of Bridge Road."

They said the project manages to settle seamlessly in its location, with&nbsp;materials that speak of its contemporaneity as well as its role as a landmark for future developments.

"The introduction of timber finishes softens its presence and welcomes residents and visitors alike. A ground floor retail space ensures activation. A canopy conceived as book match to the ground floor elevation, and the ground floor facade finishes provide consistency and clean lines for a consolidated design approach, contributing to the streetscape at ground level.

"The upper levels are finished in a combination of red bricks that speak of the site's industrial history, in a nod to the surrounding brick warehouses and buildings that form the fabric of Richmond. The building is set back at the sixth storey, where a communal room and outdoor space provide residents with an entertainment area all year round, with city views on top of one of Melbourne's busiest streets."

Inspired by the rich historical tapestry of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/richmond-vic">Richmond</a>, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer’s</a> interior stylings merge heritage and modern luxe with a chic palette of materials that appropriately reflect its lively locale.

"Our interior design scheme is lively and warm, which reflects this character-filled neighbourhood," Katrina Hooker of KHID Interior Design said.

A consistent muted green palette and wooden material are a focal point for every space in the home.

The open living, dining, and kitchen area lends the active spaces of the home spacious and easily extendable to the outdoors via the north-facing balcony overlooking Palmer Street’s treetop views.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/new-apartments/bridge-palmer-609-bridge-road-richmond">Bridge + Palmer</a> is just 13 minutes from the CBD, and only eight-minutes from Australia’s greatest sporting events at Melbourne Park, AAMI Park, and Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Freeman Group reveal Bridge + Palmer, Richmond apartment development

Melbourne's inner-city suburb Caulfield is best known for its famed racecourse, which has served punters since opening its door way back in 1876.

But the area, south-east of the city, is officially split up into four separate suburbs, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-vic">Caulfield</a>, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a>, Caulfield South, and Caulfield East. No Caulfield West unusually.

There's no obvious point in time when or why it was decided Caulfield would have a number of different suburbs, rather just the changing of planning and urban development in Melbourne over the last two centuries has seen it so.

The track, home to the Caulfield Cup, one of the biggest Group I races on the calendar, is located in Caulfield East, which is the least populated suburb of the Caulfield's due to the size of the suburb, and the fact the racecourse covers nearly two thirds of the whole suburb. The Caulfield train station also sits in Caulfield East, as does Monash University Caulfield Campus.

<a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a> is the largest suburb at 4.2 square kilometres, with over 16,000 calling it home. <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a> has Hawthorn Road dissecting it, bringing both connectivity through public transport and amenity. Caulfield Park and playground draws families to the suburb. Over 50 per cent of the population have at least one child, according to the latest ABS census data.&nbsp;

<img alt="Caulfield" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="bee3085b-73ea-4290-9475-86387d6cd568" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202023-11-10%20at%209.48.13%20am.png?VersionId=GAKgPhe0WAgCkhkxs1FHzxvdpzbPJg.D" />

Caulfield has the biggest split of apartments in the dwelling count, nearly 40 per cent of the suburb.

Only 20 per cent of <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a> is apartments. Caulfield and <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a> is split by&nbsp;Glen Eira Road. Hawthorn Road continues to run through the suburb, where there's also the Caulfield Hospital. Caulfield has just under 6,000 residents.

Caulfield South has over 12,000 residents. It has the least number of apartments, just 14 per cent of the suburb. It is also the most dominated by families, namely due to the Caulfield South Primary School and the popular Princes Park.

The domination of family homes across the <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-vic">Caulfield</a> suburbs has proven difficult for developers to acquire land to create an apartment building.

Some developers have managed it however, and are reaping rewards as they're bringing something to the suburbs which don't often see too much in the way of new development.

We've wrapped up the top three apartment developments for sale in Caulfield, <a href="https://www.urban.com.au/developments/caulfield-north-vic">Caulfield North</a>, Caulfield South in November 2023.
