The stage, named Lily Lane, has already converted 40% of its initial release into sales just six weeks after launch, a result that underscores just how underserved the Hills District has been for premium apartment product.

Situated at 32 Carrington Road directly opposite Hills Showground Metro Station, Lily Lane was designed by PTW Architects and comprises 213 residences across two 12-storey towers. The mix includes 67 one-bedroom, 100 two-bedroom and 46 three-bedroom apartments, alongside ground-floor retail.

The buyer profile tells an interesting story with 44% owner occupiers, 35% investors and 21% first homebuyers, which suggests the project is drawing from a genuinely broad base rather than a single demographic.

"Developments of this calibre are very rare in the Hills District," said Blake Schulze, National Director of Residential at Colliers.

"We are seeing particular demand from downsizers who want to remain in the area but transition into spacious, high-quality apartment living. The penthouse sale - 75% above the previous record of $3.3 million - shows that buyers will pay a premium for scale, quality and Metro access."

Pricing starts at $720,000 for one-bedroom apartments ranging from 50sqm.

What sets Lily Lane apart from the broader Hills apartment market is its commitment to genuinely house-like liveability, with more than 75% of homes including a dedicated study, multipurpose room or family room, with select layouts incorporating walk-in pantries and laundries. Appliances are Miele throughout, with larger residences also featuring Fisher & Paykel integrated refrigerators and five-burner cooktops.

Construction will be delivered by iCIRT-rated builder Decode Group, with a mid-2026 start and early 2029 completion targeted.

Lily Lane sits within the broader Carrington Place precinct - an 800+ apartment masterplan being delivered across multiple stages through to 2032. More than 20,000 square metres of outdoor space is planned, including a one-kilometre boardwalk connecting to Fred Caterson Reserve.

Hills Showground Metro Station is a two-minute walk away, placing residents within easy reach of the CBD, North Sydney, Chatswood, Macquarie Park and Norwest.
