For buyers considering off-the-plan apartments, the wait between purchase and move-in can often feel like the longest part of the journey. At Fareham in St Kilda, however, that wait is shortening by the day.

Currently under construction by Markscon and progressing steadily, the boutique apartment development is expected to welcome residents by mid-2026 – an exciting milestone for those looking to secure a new home in one of Melbourne’s most beloved bayside neighbourhoods.

Developed by Gamuda Land and designed by acclaimed local architects BayleyWard, Fareham brings together thoughtful architecture, sustainability, and the vibrant lifestyle St Kilda is known for.

See the homes before completion

One of the standout opportunities currently available to buyers is the chance to experience Fareham’s completed prototype apartments, now open for inspection.

Visiting these residences allows you to explore the layouts, finishes, and spatial design in person, helping you better imagine life at Fareham before the building is complete. For many buyers, this kind of tangible preview can make the decision to purchase off-the-plan far easier.

The display experience is particularly compelling for those considering Fareham’s popular three-bedroom residences, where sweeping views across Port Phillip Bay can be experienced firsthand.

A boutique building designed for modern living

Located at 95 St Kilda Road, Fareham is designed as a boutique residential address, with homes positioned to make the most of natural light and unobstructed coastal outlooks.

The architecture incorporates greenery and shared spaces to create a sense of connection among residents, while still maintaining the privacy and calm many buyers seek from apartment living. Designed with pet lovers in mind, green spaces and pet-welcoming policies ensure every member of your family is catered to.

A vertical landscape concept and communal areas, including a rooftop terrace, multi-purpose wellness room, and lush garden spaces, encourage interaction while framing views towards the bay and the surrounding neighbourhood.

Beyond design, sustainability is also a major focus. Fareham targets an average 8-Star NatHERS energy rating, with features including rooftop solar and access to 100% renewable energy through an embedded network.

Future-ready infrastructure is also incorporated throughout the building, with electric vehicle charger installation available for residents.

Bayside living in the heart of St Kilda

Life at Fareham places residents within walking distance of many of St Kilda’s most loved destinations, from the beach just 500 metres away and Catani Gardens to the iconic cafés, bars, and live music venues along Fitzroy Street. All this with trams and Albert Park Lake at your doorstep.

It’s a location where the energy of inner-city living meets the relaxed rhythm of the bay, offering an appealing balance for owner-occupiers and investors alike.

Secure your home before completion

For buyers looking to enter the St Kilda market, opportunities remain to secure a residence ahead of completion. Two-bedroom apartments are currently available from $895,000, while three-bedroom residences start from $1,230,000.

Buyers may also benefit from Victoria’s temporary off-the-plan stamp duty concession, potentially saving you thousands on your purchase. With construction progressing well, time is also running out to take advantage of pre-completion incentives.

With move-in expected in mid-2026, now is an ideal time to explore what life at Fareham could look like.
