Set on the corner of Thorn Street and Mt Alexander Road in Essendon, The Watson is a collection of contemporary homes that places residents within easy reach of public transport, parks, cafés, shops and schools.

The development features two secure basement levels of parking with electric vehicle charging bays, ground floor retail spaces and a café fronting Mt Alexander Road, and five residential levels above comprising 36 homes. Its three townhouses have private entries from Thorn Street, while the 33 apartments are accessed via a dedicated lobby.

Each residence has been designed with families and downsizers in mind, offering open plan layouts, spacious bedrooms, generous storage and a refined palette of finishes. Timber flooring, wool carpets and premium appliances reflect the commitment to quality, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame uninterrupted city and bay views, maximising natural light and strengthening the connection to the surrounding landscape.

Delivered in partnership with Kincrest, Telha Clarke and Rothelowman, The Watson sets a new benchmark for residential living in Essendon, bringing together architectural excellence and everyday comfort
