Waterstone by Sekisui House Australia stands as a landmark residential offering in St Leonards South, one of Sydney’s most desirable blue-chip suburbs.

Positioned within a fast-evolving precinct underpinned by infrastructure upgrades such as the new Crows Nest Metro, Waterstone represents both a premium investment and a refined lifestyle choice. As a resident of this Lower North Shore location, this means you will enjoy enduring capital growth potential and strong rental demand, supported by Sydney’s ongoing urban renewal.

Inside, a stunning home that embraces both the natural and human environment.

Luxury inclusions beyond market standard

Waterstone elevates apartment living through meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to craftsmanship. Each residence features European Miele cooking and laundry appliances, natural stone benchtops and splashbacks, bespoke joinery, and elegant engineered timber flooring throughout living and dining spaces.

The three-bedroom apartments have been the most popular among buyers. It’s no surprise, with this offering giving purchasers personalisation options with pendant lighting, fluted glass cabinetry, and premium wardrobe fit-outs.

“Buyers are drawn to Waterstone’s refined and organic design,” said Brett Talbot, sales manager for Waterstone.

“The inclusion of multi-purpose rooms, double glazing, two secure car spaces, and low strata fees has all been well received.”

Unlike typical city apartments, Waterstone’s residences are generously proportioned, offering the flexibility and functionality of a stand-alone house.

Many floorplans include multipurpose rooms, ideal for home offices, nurseries, or fitness spaces, meeting the evolving needs of families, downsizers, and professionals seeking space without compromising on location or style.

Resort-style amenity for modern living

Waterstone delivers a true resort-style experience, designed to enhance daily wellbeing and convenience. Residents enjoy exclusive access to a heated pool and spa, sauna, fully equipped gym, co-working space, pet wash bay, parcel lockers, and a communal lounge with dining and BBQ facilities.

These thoughtfully curated amenities create a sense of connection and ease, enabling residents to balance work, wellness, and leisure without leaving home.

Nature-led design philosophy

At the heart of Waterstone lies a deep connection to nature, inspired by developer Sekisui House’s Satoyama principles – a Japanese design philosophy promoting harmony between people and the environment.

“Waterstone has been designed to embrace both the natural and human environment,”  said Peter Valleau, project director of apartment & mixed-use developments at Sekisui House Australia.

“A ribbon of green runs through the centre of the site, connecting residents to communal amenities and the broader network of parks and pedestrian links in the surrounding community.” 

Landscape architects ASPECT Studios have realised this vision. As Miguel Serrao, associate at ASPECT Studios, said, “We have designed a series of outdoor spaces that foster both privacy and community using native planting, sensory gardens, and sustainable water management to support wellbeing, biodiversity, and daily connection to nature.”

This nature-led approach manifests in nearly 28% of the site being dedicated to communal open green space, enhancing air quality, promoting biodiversity, and encouraging outdoor connection.

Energy-efficient systems, sustainable water management, and seamless indoor–outdoor transitions further reinforce Waterstone’s ecological integrity.

A prime location offering connectivity and calm

Waterstone enjoys a rare balance of tranquillity and connectivity, offering residents a peaceful, nature-rich retreat within one of Sydney’s best-connected urban settings.

As a resident, this means you will enjoy: 

• Proximity to major transport hubs: Walking distance to St Leonards Station, Wollstonecraft Station, and the Crows Nest Metro for rapid access to the Sydney CBD, North Sydney, Chatswood, and Macquarie Park.
• Green surroundings: Adjacent to Smoothey Park, Berry Island Reserve, and Newlands Park, providing lush bushland trails and open green spaces.
• A walkable lifestyle: Moments from Mall 88, St Leonards Square, and Willoughby Road’s dining precinct in Crows Nest, offering cafés, restaurants, and boutique shopping.
