Landmark Plots Height Rise for Dee Why Apartment Blocks

Landmark Group's plans for 4 Delmar Parade and 812 Pittwater Road, Dee Why.

Landmark Group is looking to take advantage of the housing market swell at Dee Why with plans for a 280-apartment development.

The builder-developer wants to add 61 apartments to its approved Casa Delmar project at 4 Delmar Parade and 812 Pittwater Road in Sydney’s Northern Beaches. 

The project was approved in July, 2023 but since then the NSW Government has announced a 30 per cent height bonus to add affordable housing.

The new plans by Rothelowman add two storeys to those plans to create a mixed-use development across two buildings, with three levels of basement parking, and now including 43 affordable apartments.

The previously project comprises a six/seven storey building facing Delmar Parade and a 10-storey tower on the coerner with Pittwater Road, with a central open spacesand communal rooftop areas designed by Ground Ink.

There was also the option to convert ground floor apartments into home businesses or commercial tenancies depending on future demand.

▲ The site is 13km north-east of the Sydney CBD and currently has two three-storey buildings on it.

In the new application, Sutherland & Associates Planning said although the site was at the southern end of the Dee Why town centre it was disconnected from the commercial core.

“As a result, commercial floor space on the ground floor of the internal areas of the development is not commercially viable and only commercial tenancies with a street frontage will have a chance of succeeding in this location at the edge of the centre,” the planning report said.

“The proposed has maximised the provision of commercial floor space with street frontage, and maintains approximately the same provision of commercial floor space as previously approved.”

▲ The previously approved plans were filed in 2022 and had a work-from-home focus as the market recovered from the pandemic.

Demolition and early works have already started on the 7790sq m, L-shaped site within the Northern Beaches Local Government Area. Completion is expected by the end of 2025.

In September last year the average unit price for the neighbourhood was $875,000, according to the Hotspotting Price Predictor Index, while houses were fetching $2.4 million. 

Nearby, ISPT is divesting its dual-supermarket and neighbourhood centre, Dee Why Grand, including a 10-storey office building and 170 apartments—and the Dee Why Hotel.

ISPT acquired the property in 2014, four years after it was completed. It now has a 98 per cent occupancy.
