Imagine a home where your dog has a private park, your children can adventure safely in a thoughtfully designed residents-only playground, and you have a fully equipped cardio gym just downstairs – all while enjoying a peaceful, green-fringed lifestyle in South Canberra.

That’s the future-ready vision of Woden Green, a landmark new development redefining apartment living in the Woden precinct.

With more than 45 years of industry experience, Hindmarsh, in conjunction with leading architects DBI, designed Woden Green as three striking towers with 419 one, two and three-bedroom apartments.

The trusted builder has set out to deliver more than just spacious apartments – this is a development underpinned by long-term liveability, sustainability and smart investment.

It’s set for completion in the middle of this year.

Space and flexibility

Today’s buyers increasingly value larger, well-considered floor plans that accommodate an evolving lifestyle.

With that in mind, Woden Green offers one-bedroom apartments that average 62 square metres and stretch up to 73 square metres, while two-bedroom apartments average 87 square metres and reach 97 square metres internally.

Many of the homes also include a media room or office, perfect for hybrid workers or those who value flexible living spaces.

Listing agent Will Honey from The Property Collective says the apartment sizes are far beyond standard market offerings.

“These homes are designed by people who live in apartments themselves,” he says.

“That lived-in experience shows, from the proportions and the ample storage to the natural light and air flow.”

Modern inclusions

When considering what buyers are looking for in an apartment in 2025, the masterminds behind Woden Green have ensured every box is ticked.

The modern interiors feature spacious kitchens (including the one-bedroom apartments) with high-quality materials and finishes.

These include zero-silica stone benchtops for sustainable living, Electrolux appliances and soft-close cabinetry.

Other features range from ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning to storage in the apartments and basements.

Many apartments also feature full, separate laundries, while the others have concealed European options.

And the penthouses? These offer butler’s pantries and even more generous layouts – all complementing the project’s unified design ethos.

Smart living built to last

Along with liveability, quality has also been prioritised throughout. Built by Hindmarsh – one of Canberra’s most respected and enduring builders – Woden Green offers the peace of mind buyers need in today’s market, Honey says.

“We’ve had buyers walk through the finished product and remark on the attention to detail and premium construction,” he says. “It’s the kind of build that gives people confidence their investment will hold value.”

Hindmarsh has a reputation for high-quality delivery, Honey says, with a track record that reassures investors and live-in owners alike that their apartment will stand the test of time.

This is further backed by Hindmarsh’s 365-day defect period on remaining apartments.

 

Community, nature and wellness

Community-driven and sustainable lifestyles now matter more than ever. Woden Green delivers over 3000 square metres of elevated communal gardens, designed as a peaceful, green sanctuary well above street level.

The beautifully landscaped podium is given a lushness by more than 6000 plants and includes barbecue zones and private cabanas, as well as sunken lounges and infinity reflection ponds.

Whether your children are of the human or fur variety, there’s a private dog park and an adventure playground with soft-landing play zones.

Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the well-equipped gym, or can take advantage of the 25-metre indoor swimming pool. There’s also a separate children’s wading pool.

In addition, Woden Green features a business lounge, residents’ kitchen and dining spaces, a cinema, and more.

These shared amenities reflect the growing demand for integrated lifestyle experiences at home.

Connectivity meets tranquillity

Positioned on the quiet side of Woden, the development balances calm residential living with urban convenience.

While removed from the town centre’s hustle, Woden Green is just a five-minute walk from Westfield Woden and the Bradley Street dining precinct.

Residents will also enjoy the proximity to major transport routes, the low-traffic surroundings, and the open green vistas to the north, east, and south.

“You’re not staring into office towers – instead, you’ve got open views, a suburban backdrop and the ability to get anywhere quickly,” Honey says.

A future-proof investment

Buyers in 2025 are looking for security, sustainability and capital growth.

Honey says the development delivers on all fronts. Quality construction, desirable location, premium inclusions, and strong rental demand all point to lasting value.

“Whether you’re an owner-occupier seeking lifestyle and space, or an investor looking to future-proof your portfolio, Woden Green offers a rare combination of size, quality, and community-driven design,” he says.

The ACT government currently offers a stamp-duty incentive. If qualifying buyers purchase an off-plan apartment in Woden Green before June 30, they will benefit from stamp duty exemption on any apartment valued up to $1 million.
