A stylish new apartment project being built only steps from Gosford's waterfront offers buyers the chance to live their dream lifestyle.

Construction is officially commencing on Archibald, a new $375 million state-of-the-art complex in the heart of the Central Coast.

The highly anticipated project is the brainchild of Sydney-based developer and builder ALAND creatively combines both residential and retail spaces, set to deliver 323 residential apartments, 130 hotel rooms, multiple food and beverage tenants, 2,061sqm pub and a 960sqm Skybar & Lounge.

The $375m state-of-the-art development has attracted plenty of buyer interest already.

The landmark project's unique amenities are also drawing in buyers, including a hotel-style pool and podium areas fit with retail shops, eateries and a pub.

George Tadrosse, ALAND chief executive says it’s a “milestone” project for the area.

"The level of amenity is unmatched," he says.

"Residents will get that hotel lifestyle with access to resort-style facilities and beaches on their doorstep."

A lifestyle setting

The Central Coast, only an hour from the Sydney CBD, has long been an in-demand destination.

"The Central Coast has a lot to offer prospective buyers”, says Anne Flaherty, economist at realestate.com.au.

"We know that since Covid more people have been drawn to lifestyle regions. It's not a trend that's going away and it's clear the Central Coast is an area that ticks the boxes.”

The area has national parks, access to beaches and exquisite eating options in every town.

“As a result, it's attracting a range of buyers," Ms Flaherty adds.

“Everyone from retirees to couples with children, to workers who can work remotely looking for a bit more scenic lifestyle."

Gosford has long been an in-demand destination for buyers across many segments.

The popularity is reflected in the property prices, with the median house value in March up year-on-year by 4.3 per cent and 4 per cent for units.

"It's a very positive indication, given the declines we've seen across a lot of Australia in the last 12 months, and we're still continuing to see prices climb," Ms Flaherty shares.

At the heart of the region is Gosford, a thriving town with a bustling retail and business scene.

It's a haven for boaters with a sailing marina. There's the Gosford Train Station - only 300m away - Gosford TAFE, and the Central Coast Stadium.

Mr Tadrosse adds that the region is also on the up with $23 million in new government investment earmarked for the area, which includes upgrades for faster rail at Wyong and a new local university campus.

Stylish coastal homes

Located at 108 Donnison Street, Gosford, Archibald is an innovative part of the Gosford waterfront transformation.

The facade of the building is a striking monochrome motif softened with greenery and external plantings on balconies.

The project's height is a highlight, offering the opportunity to provide spectacular uninterrupted views of the Brisbane Water and nature as far as the eye can see.

With showstopping views from the huge windows, future residents will never want to leave.

According to Ms Flaherty, the outstanding location will appeal to buyers "as people will have easy access to the region’s beautiful beaches and convenient amenities.”

However, Mr Tadrosse says despite premium vistas, Archibald remains very affordable for many buyers.

"A one-bedroom unit starts at $450,000, and $835,000 for a three-bedroom."

"We have a lot of owner-occupiers and, in particular, downsizers account for a significant portion of the sales to date due to the affordability,” Mr Tadrosse explains.

"Local first home buyers have also been active due to the new Government Schemes in place this year."

Dream interiors 

Designed in collaboration with Place Studios, the Archibald is the epitome of coastal style, invoking a laidback cosmopolitan vibe.

Residences are open and spacious with eye-catching features like floor-to-ceiling windows.

The colour palette in the living areas and bedrooms are soft whites and creams inspiring a sense of calm, juxtaposed with exciting kitchens that include a range of finishes, Fisher & Paykel appliances, Grohe tapware, Caesarstone benchtops and tinted mirror splash backs.

The quality interiors mean buyers can simply move in and start enjoying life.

As an exemplar of premium living, Archibald's amenities go above and beyond.

There will be multiple food and beverage spaces on the ground level, including the 2,061sqm ground floor pub.

Residences will have access to the luxurious swimming pool with a swim-up bar.

There’s a 960sqm rooftop open-air Skybar and lounge area perfect for barbecues and events or a quiet afternoon spot for summer afternoons.

"Archibald is the only project of its kind in Gosford," says Mr Tadrosse.

"So, it’s no surprise that investors have been quick to recognise this unique offering and its potential.”

"Prospective buyers may need to act fast to snap up the Archibald dream," Mr Tadrosse says.

Construction is kicking off with an anticipated completion at the end of 2024, he expects “an influx of interest across all buyer types".

The residences will have access to an array of inclusions, making for a fantastic lifestyle choice.

Transforming Gosford

As a result of the NSW Government's commitment to invest more than $23 million in the Central Coast region, with the renovation of Gosford Hospital and the construction of a new university campus, Gosford is undergoing a significant transformation.

ALAND Founder and Director Andrew Hrsto says that ALAND invests significant time and expertise in researching the market to ensure that its developments are long term investments.

“We have been able to find the formula for creating quality homes at affordable prices in locations that are future growth centres,” Mr Hrsto says.

“At ALAND, we see an opportunity to help even up that disconnect between supply and demand while delivering quality homes and investment opportunities in Greater Sydney, specifically in areas supported by great infrastructure.”

Located less than five minutes’ walk from Gosford’s Waterfront Park, Central Coast Station, and the University of Newcastle’s new multi-million-dollar high-tech campus to be built on Mann Street, the position has been major drawcard for buyers.
