Highly anticipated Northcote Collective officially tops out

Brought to you by a leading Lower North Shore developer, Abadeen, the highly anticipated Northcote Collective has officially “topped out,” reaching its highest point and celebrating a major milestone.

Located in the tightly held suburb of Naremburn, Northcote Collective is a boutique collection of just 58 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments designed by award-winning architects Rothelowman.

Bold architectural form is balanced by warm, timeless materiality, creating residences that set a new benchmark for design and liveability – all within a five to 10 minute walk of the vibrant heart of Crows Nest and the new St Leonards and Crows Nest Metro stations. Adding to the convenience and vibrancy of the address, the development will also feature a ground-floor retail offering, bringing lifestyle amenities directly to residents’ doorsteps.

Delivered in partnership with NSW’s leading residential builder, Decode – an iCIRT-rated construction company renowned for delivering excellence, Northcote Collective has been carefully crafted with an unwavering focus on enduring quality, comfort, and lifestyle.

“This is an important and exciting moment for Northcote Collective, and we’re proud to celebrate this milestone with our partners, consultants, and future residents,” said Justin Brown, executive chairman and founder of Abadeen.

“From the outset, our vision was to create something truly special for Naremburn – homes that respect the character of the neighbourhood while elevating the standard of Lower North Shore living.

“With connectivity to transport, retail on the doorstep, and a true village lifestyle, this milestone also comes at a perfect time when buyer confidence is returning to the market.

“I am incredibly proud of our team and of Decode for their dedication in helping us bring this vision to life.”

Perfectly positioned, Northcote Collective offers more than just a home. Residents will enjoy the best of both worlds with easy access to North Sydney, Sydney CBD, and Balmoral Beach, paired with the charm of Crows Nest village, celebrated for its award-winning eateries and premium homewares shopping.

Crowning the development is a spectacular rooftop pool and entertaining terrace with panoramic district views – a rare luxury in a boutique project of this scale and the ultimate retreat at home.

Ali Mobarak, associate director at Decode, said, “Working with such a prolific and leading developer as Abadeen on Northcote Collective has been a privilege.

“Our team has worked tirelessly with meticulous attention to detail to ensure every element reflects the highest standards in design, quality, and liveability.

“Reaching the top of the structure is a proud moment, and we remain on track for completion in early 2026.”

With interest already strong among both local downsizers and young professionals, momentum for Northcote Collective is expected to accelerate as recent interest rate cuts and improved borrowing conditions bring more buyers back into the market.

Auction activity across Sydney surged by almost 30% in recent weeks, with clearance rates above 70%, signalling a renewed wave of buyer demand.

Analysts are forecasting a clear upswing across the North Shore in 2025, positioning Northcote Collective as one of the most desirable new addresses in the region.
