Why this westside property is quietly becoming one of Sydney’s smartest properties

As Sydney’s growth shifts west, Melrose Park is quickly emerging as a community to watch.

Just 10 minutes east of Parramatta CBD and 30 minutes from Sydney CBD, it is being reimagined by a new town center opening in 2026, the proposed Parramatta Light Rail and extensive parks, creating a walkable, family-friendly neighbourhood.

Combined with premium design, multi-generational living options and sustainability features, it’s no wonder buyer interest is increasing.

This visionary neighborhood comes to life with lush green spaces and elegant homes, plus lifestyle perks like river access, excellent schools, transportation and shopping.

Now the latest release will take the community to new heights.

Located at the highest point of Melrose Park, Aeris will feature premium apartments with views of Parramatta and the Sydney CBD – and is expected to be popular with buyers.

Resort style living in Melrose Park

In true Sekisui House style, Aeris amenities are resort-like and designed to promote tranquil, everyday convenience.

Residents can swim in the pool with skyline views, workout in the state-of-the-art fitness center or enjoy the outdoor cinema and barbecue area.

“These spaces are designed to promote wellbeing, leisure and social connection,” emphasizes Mr Grujovski, Project Director of Melrose Park.

Sustainability is also central to Aeris’ design, with rooftop solar panels, communal EV charging stations and energy-efficient features in every home.

Smart-home technology includes keyless digital entry and remote lighting controls to support energy management, making Aeris a progressive choice for environmentally conscious buyers.

Aeris apartments also feature expansive floor plans and spectacular views of the surrounding city.

Select apartments also feature multi-functional spaces designed to grow with the family, transforming from nursery to playroom, study or home office as needs change.

Why Melrose Park’s location is a draw for buyers

Savvy buyers are always looking for a prime location, and Aeris delivers with easy access to both Parramatta and the Sydney CBD.

Residents benefit from the free Melrose Park shuttle bus, which connects to train and ferry services.

Looking ahead, Melrose Park is on the proposed Parramatta Light Rail route, which when completed will connect Parramatta CBD to Sydney Olympic Park – a major drawcard for buyers.

The residents also have everything they need close by, day in, day out.

At the heart of the community is the expansive 20,000 m² Central Park, with sports fields, shaded playgrounds, landscaped gardens and pedestrian links connecting directly to schools, shops and the future city centre.

Spaces such as the swimming pool with skyline views offer residents all the comfort of a hotel home.

Opening in 2026, Melrose Park Town Center will be a vibrant hub with cafes, al fresco dining and a wide range of shops across 30,000 square metres.

Families will also benefit from the planned Melrose Park High School and playing field, in addition to other nearby public schools, all within walking distance, Mr. Grujovski noted.

“Walkability is a cornerstone of Aeris planning,” he adds.

A public green corridor will connect the development to Central Park, schools and the future city center.

“Tree-lined streets and pedestrian-friendly paths encourage movement and community interaction,” says Mr Grujovski.

“Residents can walk to shops, restaurants and transportation options, reducing dependence on cars and improving quality of life.”

With the launch of the NSW Government’s First Home Buyer Scheme, there are more opportunities to find a home in Melrose Park than ever before.

Sekisui House is temporarily extending a 5% down payment* promotion for all buyers purchasing select Aeris homes before December 1, 2025.
